she sings from somewhere you can't see
she sits in the top of the greenest tree
she sends out an aroma of undefined love
it drips on down in a mist from above

she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want

you hear her calling everywhere you turn
you know you're headed for the pleasure burn
but the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
she's the real thing but you knew it all along

she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want

look at you with your mouth watering
Lyricslook at you with your mind reeling
why don't we just admit it's all over
just the girl u want

she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want

she sings from somewhere you can't see
she sits in the top of the greenest tree
she sends out an aroma of undefined lust
it drips on down in a mist from above

she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want

look at you with your mouth watering
look at you with your mind spinnin'
why don't we just admit it's all over
just the girl u want

she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl
that u want
she's just the girl, just the girl

baby baby baby hurt me bad
baby baby
baby baby made me cry
baby
I wanna die

somebody tell me where she's hiding out
I gotta find that cheatin' gal
can't go can't go can't go sleep at night
can't sleep can't sleep
it's not right
sunlight sunlight in my eyes
sunlight
makes me rise
I can't sleep until my baby says it's over
I gotta hear it face to face
I love you darlin' it's a cryin' shame
the way you run around like you're in a big game
I'm so unhappy I could cry every time I think about you
boo hoo

Lyricsbaby baby baby please come back
baby baby
sunlight sunlight in my eyes
sunlight
makes me rise
I can't sleep until my baby says it's over
I gotta hear it face to face
I love you darlin' it's a cryin' shame
the way you run around like you're in a big game
I sit around in a trance all day and think about you
all the time

I love you darlin' it's a cryin' shame
the way you run around like you're in a big game
it's so unfair that you're so happy when I'm hurtin' inside

I love you darlin' it's a cryin' shame
the way you run around like you're in a big game
I'm so unhappy I could cry every time I think about you
boo hoo

crack that whip
give the past the slip
step on a crack
break your momma's back
when a problem comes along
you must whip it
before the cream sits out too long
you must whip it
when something's going wrong
you must whip it

now whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
whip it good
Lyrics
when a good time turns around
you must whip it
you will never live it down
unless you whip it
no one gets away
until they whip it

i say whip it
whip it good
i say whip it
whip it good

crack that whip
give the past the slip
step on a crack
break your momma's back
when a problem comes along
you must whip it
before the cream sits out too long
you must whip it
when something's going wrong
you must whip it

now whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
whip it good

my baby took our love
and then she rolled it up
rolled it up a hill
like a ball of snow
like a snowball grows
until it gets too big
until she lost control
and it rolled back down
and it rolled back down
and it rolled back down
and it rolled back down

she took a tiny bit
and rolled it up again
slower than before
she went a step too far
she had to let it go
i saw it go straight down
my baby turned around
started up again
started up again
Lyricsstarted up again
started up again

eyes were made for looking'
hands were made for holdin'
hearts were made for lovin'
lips were made for kissin'
legs were made for walkin'
tracks were made to follow
that's what i'm gonna do
two tracks
in the snow
two tracks
up that hill
my heart broke
when my baby left
two tracks behind

when love takes a back seat to life
when a man runs away from his wife
that's when you know
he's in the world

when a guy tries to round up his mate
but she's gone and it's gettin' too late
that's when you know
he lost his girl

so it happens
all the time
don't get low
just stand in line
take your turn
now make your move
and crush that dove
with a ton o' luv

when woman takes a back seat to man
she has to tell him where to go if she can
Lyricsand she decides
to wear his ring

so it happens
all the time
don't get low
just stand in line
take your turn
now make your move
and crush that dove
with a ton o' luv

time's a girl with the face of a clock
her hands move forward 'til you can't stop
she comes from above
with a ton o' luv
with a ton o' luv
with a ton o' luv

a victim of collision on the open sea
nobody ever said that life was free
sank, swam, go down with the ship
but use your freedom of choice

I'll say it again in the land of the free
use your freedom of choice
your freedom of choice

In ancient Rome there was a poem
about a dog who found two bones
he picked at one
he licked the other
he went in circles
he dropped dead

freedom of choice
is what you got
freedom of choice!

then if you got it you don't want it
Lyricsseems to be the rule of thumb
don't be tricked by what you see
you got two ways to go

I'll say it again in the land of the free
use your freedom of choice
freedom of choice

freedom of choice
is what you got
freedom of choice!

In ancient Rome
there was a poem
about a dog
who found two bones
he picked at one
he licked the other
he went in circles
he dropped dead

freedom of choice
is what you got
freedom from choice
is what you want

freedom of choice
is what you got
freedom from choice
is what you want

twist away the gates of steel
unlock the secret voice
give in to ancient noise
take a chance a brand new dance
twist away the gates of steel

twist away
now twist and shout
the earth it moves too slow
but the earth is all we know
we pay to play the human way
twist away the gates of steel

a man is real
not made of steel!

but the earth is all we know
we pay to play the human way
twist away the gates of steel

the beginning was the end
Lyricsof everything now
the ape regards his tail
he's stuck on it
repeats until he fails
half a goon and half a god
a man's not made of steel

twist away
now twist and shout
the earth it moves too slow
but the earth is all we know
we pay to play the human way
twist away the gates of steel

a man is real
that's how he feels!

I -I owe-owe you
absolutely nothing
I-I know-know you
positively disagree
I've heard it said that all is fair
in love and war so what's life for
you watch it go out the window
stop and go back for more
more!

go-go fight-fight punch
your way to happiness
go-go light-light or
you'll never be a big success

I heard it said that all is fair
in love and war so what's life for
the boy and girl
two separate worlds
the endless tug of war
uh!
Lyrics
go-go fight-fight punch
your way to happiness
go-go light-light or
you'll never be a big success

I've heard it said that all is fair
in love and war so what's life for

I heard it said that all is fair
in love and war so what's life for
the boy and girl
two separate worlds
the endless tug of war

I -I owe-owe you
absolutely nothing

every move I make
every rule I break
makes me want it more
every step I take
every new mistake
each revolving door
keeps me searching for you
there's nowhere for you to hide
'cause a feelin's got me reelin'
and I'm twisted up inside

don't you know I got a thing that looks for you
don't you know the way you make me feel about you
don't you know I got a place that waits for you
don't you know that I am always thinking of you

I got a rocket in my pocket
but I don't know what to do
like a plug without a socket
I'm just waitin' 'round for you

don't you know I got a thing for you to do
don't you know the way you make me feel about you
don't you know I got a thing that looks for you
don't you know that I am always thinking of you

I got a rocket in my pocket
I don't know what to do
like a plug without a socket
I'm just waitin' 'round for you


. . .



vigor vim vitality and punch
the ability to act on a sudden hunch
nerve to tackle the hardest thing
feet that climb and hands that cling
a heart that never forgets to sing
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep

sand and grit in a concrete base
a friendly smile on an honest face
a spirit that helps when another's down
knows how to scatter the blackest frown
loves its neighbor loves its town
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep

say "I will" for you know you can
look for the best in every man
Lyricsmeet each thundering knockout blow
come back with a smile 'cause you know
you get the best of the whole damn show
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep
that's pep
you know that's pep

three cheers!
they're yellin' again
three cheers!
they'll be at it to the end

so drink some big beers and go crazy tonight
they're all dressed up and they'll be gettin' it tonight
big swingers in double knits tonight
big babies gonna get in a fight
actin' crazy bustin' up the chairs
doubled over gettin' sick on the stairs
they know the limits 'cause they cross them every night
the dull sensations as it turns real hot
why, the guys in the back with their heads on the floor
surrounded by their buddies they're all hollerin' for more
whoa whoa whoa
it's mr. b's ballroom

party time turn the music up loud
party time lose your head in the crowd
yellin' laughin' tryin' hard to act smart
Lyricsput 'em under pressure and you watch them fall apart
freeze! come on out of there
freeze! you ain't goin' nowhere
freeze! put your hands on your head
freeze!
it's mr. b's ballroom

whoa whoa whoa
it's mr. b's ballroom
(repeat)

i heard a girl in a dress
say her face was a mess
i heard there's no reason why
i heard that now's the time to buy

on planet earth
i'll probably stay
on planet earth
it's a place to live your life

where pleasure follows pain
people go insane
fly around in planes
pray that it won't rain
drive around in cars
get drunk in local bars
dream of being stars
well i lived all my life on planet earth

i saw a girl lose all control
when she lost her new mink stole
Lyricsi saw her try to catch a man
things i couldn't understand

on planet earth
i'll probably stay
on planet earth
it's a place to live your life

where pleasure follows pain
people go insane
fly around in planes
pray that it won't rain
drive around in cars
get drunk in local bars
dream of being stars
well i lived all my life on planet earth

i saw a man on a stage
scream "put me back in my cage"
i saw him hang by his tie
i saw enough to make me cry
on planet earth
on planet earth

i lived all my life on planet earth
i lived all my life on planet earth
on planet earth
(repeat)
