Every Now And Then
When I See You
It's been 3 days since I screamed and hung up on ya
All I wanted was to hold you tight
I'm sorry, baby, never meant to be mean to ya
And I hope you call me back tonight
You're hesitating 'cause you don't want a love affair
I promise, babe, it'll be alright
Truth is all I'm doin' is missin' ya
Thinkin' ever when I'm gonna see you
And baby, when I see ya
I'm gonna love you all over the place
And baby, when I see ya
I'm gonna kiss you all over your face
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
It's been 3 days since you screamed and hung up on me
All you wanted was to hold me tight
Now you're callin' to say, "Hey" and make up with me
But I think I need a little more time
I'm hesitating 'cause I don't want a love affair
And I want a love to be alright
Truth is all I'm doin' is missin' ya
Thinkin' ever when I'm gonna see you
And baby, when (When) I (I) see ya (See ya)
I'm gonna love you all over the place
And baby, when I see ya (I-I)
I'm gonna kiss you all over your face
Yeah, yeah
Dance with me, love
Peace and love with your hands ??
Spread a little love all over my face
When I see you
Yeah, baby
Hey, baby
I'm gonna
I'm gonna love you all over the place
When I see ya (I'm gonna love you all over the place)
I'm gonna love you all over the place (I'm gonna love
you, yeah, baby)
When I see ya
I'm gonna kiss you all over your face
When I see ya (Yeah, yeah)
I'm gonna love you all over the place (I'm gonna love
you all over the place)
When I see ya
I'm gonna kiss you all over your face
Yeah, yeah
It Ain't The Money
Heart of mine, milk and honey, it ain't the money no we know.
Doin' lines, ain't it funny that it ain't the money, now we know.
After the money they lust sell their souls for the unlimited cash
Flow, in god we trust but that's never in class though, enron,
Worldcom, ceo assholes a monopoly to collect whenever they
Pass go, big screen TV's nigga please, there will be no alerts b4
They search the siege 13 hrs in the seal with 13 leaves 13
Steps that it takes to see 13 thieves.
Hidee high, lowdy low, get up and go to the show, every time
I get low I get up and go to the show.
I fell in love with her once she was evil I remember, her 18th
Birthday she became legal tender. Some say she was heaven sent
With skeletons in her closet, traded herself for drugs and stayed
Inside of her wallet. I know women who couldn't have her who
Became alcoholics, in the fetal position bent over toilets
And calling for earl with pains in their bladders so people listen
When I tell you it really don't matter.
Betcha giving head to a movie star betcha gotta llama riding in
Your car betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis, betcha giving
Head to a movie star betcha gotta llama riding in your car
Betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis.
Hidee high, lowdy low, get up and go to the show.
Ain't it funny how the money makes the honey taste like nothing
You can't have no more? How we know. Ain't it funny how the
Money makes the honey taste like nothing you can't have no
More? Now we know. Ain't it funny how the money makes to
Honey taste just like nothing - people act like they have but
They're bluffing now we know that it don't mean nothing.
Peace of mind fill my tummy it ain't the money, now we know.
Hard to find got my something it ain't the money know we know.
Hidee high lowdy low, get up and go to the show. Now we know.
Now we know
She Ain't Right For You
Wrote me in a letter that she makes u feel better and all of the
Things u said to her but I feel what I feel, it's real.
She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me 'cause she ain't right for you - she
Don't love you like I do.
Turn me around. Turn me upside down sporting the tears of a
Clown but I feel what I feel, it's real.
She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me 'cause she ain't right for you - she
Don't love you like I do.
They will say that I spend all my days chasing a love that she
Took away but I feel what I feel.
You know baby I've been trying to tell you for a mighty long
Time now that u can keep looking u can keep searching all
Over the world. Trying to find a find a love like mine but the real
Thing is right here baby and no matter what she say no matter
What she do, she don't like u like I do.
She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me 'cause she ain't right for you - she
Don't love you like I do.
They will say that I spend all my days chasing a love that she
Took away but I feel what I feel
Things That Made Me Change
Sure would like to see you and visit your big house in the sky. I
Wish you didn't have to leave us, but since you're gone the time
Sure does fly. So I don't get too attached too much anymore,
It's a different world and I'm a different girl.
All the rain and all the pain, I hope it's for the good 'cause
I know I'll never be the same. These are the things that made me
Change, I hope it's for the good 'cause I know I'll never be
The same.
So proud to have your baby till u up and left us alone. Would u
Care that it drove me crazy? I have to make it on my own. So I
Don't get too attached too much anymore it's a different world
And I'm a different girl.
All the rain and all the pain, I hope it's for the good 'cause
I know I'll never be the same. These are things that made me
Change, I hope it's for the good 'cause I know I'll never be
The same.
Pray the lord my soul to keep. I try to hang on to the best of me
But changes keep on changing me. I just want to love who I turn
Out to be. All the rain:don't quite understand it, can't quite
Handle it
Come Together
Do me some wrong songs make money all the time, but your fine
Chocolate ass brings nothing negative to mind. The sun shines
Laughter when we live as one and there's peace for those who
Believe in love.
I'm so glad we've come together again. Been thinking 'bout
You, where you been? I've been waiting here on needles and
Pins and I'm so glad we've come together again - so glad
We've come together.
Bad news makes the front page all the time, but the positive's
In small print on page 99. the sun shines laughter when we
Live as one, and there's peace for those who believe in love.
I'm so glad we've come together again. Since the way and
Everything I have been laying low but it's good to see my
Friends and I'm so glad we've come together again - so glad
We've come together.
O why all the confusion, when there's such a simple solution?
In as much as we keep it to ourselves we all need each other so
Let's be together.
I'm so glad we've come together again. 4.3.2.1
Jesus For A Day
Run the creature has come, there's no cover for you no prize
When you've won.
Be. If I could be jesus for just a day and have it my way, if I
Could be perfect, like the light - jesus just for a night and have
It my way - if I could be.
Stand the creature has come. We're doing all we can, but our
Angels have given up.
Be. If I could be jesus for just a day and have it my way, if I
Could be perfect, like the light - jesus for a night and have
It my way - if I could be.
Atop my mountain a phenomenon - when I walk on water I am
Complete, at peace and I'd make it so you'd be just like me.
Be. If I could be Jesus for just a day and have it my way, if I
Could be - do all my life right - jesus for just a night and have
It my way - if I could be
My Fondest Childhood Memories
When I was 10 I had a live in babysitter, she had a pet
Kangaroo wore big breasts and feathers. She gave me ice
Cream every time I screamed and hollered and I loved her till I
Caught her sexing my father.
She gonna hurt you daddy never again, she wasn't a friend, so
I killed her. She gonna hurt you daddy never again she wasn't
A friend, so I killed her.
When I was 13 the plumber stopped by, the house was flooding
And no one knew why. Within no time at all he got
Rid of the water and I was grateful till I caught him plunging
My mother.
He gonna hurt you momma never again, he wasn't a friend, so
I killed him. He gonna hurt you momma never again he wasn't
A friend so I killed him, she gonna hurt your daddy never again,
She wasn't a friend, so I killed her. She gonna hurt you daddy
Never again she wasn't a friend, so I killed her.
And I don't feel bad about it. Say what? And I don't feel bad
About it. These are my fondest childhood memories. I was just
A kid, so they let me go despite the murders that I did - all
Grown up now as u can see, my parents are still happily
Married thanks to me.
These are my fondest childhood memories
Happiness
All hail the higher, I'm higher every day and there is a will
There is a skill a powder a pill to make me stay that way.
Happiness for a day or 2, that's my limit I'm a junkie how
'bout you? Someday I'm gonna blow and when I do, happiness
for a day or 2.
Down here for worship I'm higher every day and how much I
Pray how much I pray that I don't stay that way.
Happiness for a day or 2, that's my limit I'm a junkie how
'bout you? Someday I'm gonna blow and when I do, happiness
for a day or 2.
I was well on my way, yes I was well on my way to the
Sun - to fun.
Happiness for a day or 2, that's my limit I'm a junkie how
'bout you? Someday I'm gonna blow and when I do, I had
the happiness.
I want to know...
Happiness for a day or 2, that's my limit I'm a junkie how
'bout you? Someday I'm gonna blow and when I do, I had the
happiness just like you
Speechless
Sure do like the way it's going down with you we could be
Together for years, and I'm ready to make that move cross
That line with we could put some joy in each other's tears.
l.o.v.e. don't sum it up for me it's much m.o.r.e. than any
world could mean.
Baby aaaaah 'cause it's going down - make me sing lala when
You come around - make me say ooooh weee when u look at
Me - baby aaaaaah 'cause it's going down and I'm speechless.
Practicing all day what to say to you, but it never seems to
Come out right, just to know the feeling is so perfect for me and
You and I want to feel it for the rest of my life. l.o.v.e.
Don't sum it up for me it's much m.o.r.e. than any word
Coul d mean.
Baby aaaaah 'cause it's going down - make me sing lala when
You come around - make me say ooooh weee when u look at
Me - baby aaaaaah 'cause it's going down and I'm speechless.
O it's fur sure, there is love then there is something more.
I'm hoping the music can express what I feel when you caress -
Do you hear it when I scream your name when we're laying?
Sure do like the way it's going down with you we could be
Together for years
Screamin'
Don't hear nothing but bad news lately, and all my family has
Gone crazy but I guess it don't matter since the work is gonna
End. Gonna make a change at least I'll try to - will they notice
When I do? And if I don't make it will you still be my friend?
So baby tell me when I'll see you again - it'll all be better.
All of my troubles they go away when you're on top of me loving
Me down, making sounds and it's so good I am screaming.
Make you wanna throw your hands and holler, crying cause I
Miss my father - when will we get out the mess we're in? all I
Want to do is reach the sky - don't want to have to die to do that
Where on earth is my heaven? So baby tell me when I'll see you
Again - it'll all be better.
All of my troubles they go away when you're on top of me loving
Me down, making sounds and it's so good I am screaming.
In each other's arms we're safe.
Why don't we just stay that Way? - making love and loving all the time.
All of my troubles they go away when you're on top of me loving
Me down, making sounds and it's so good I am screaming
Every Now And Then
It's the mood I'm in it's how hard it's been the ultimate sin
Don't want to commit - but I think of it every now and then.
Could give love a try could give god a try much easier just to
Say bye bye - and I think of it every now and then.
When you're getting down you got to get up. When you're
Getting down, you got to get up up up.
Highest of the high two pies in the sky it could be all mine just
A matter of time - but I think of it every now and then.
Guess I could forget could remember when could discover it
But how hard it's been
