Got To Give It Up by Marvin Gaye
I used to go out to parties
and stand around
'cause I was too nervous
to really get down
but my body yearned to be free
I got up on the floor and thought
somebody could choose me
No more standin' there beside the walls
Finally got myself together baby
and I'm havin' a ball
As long as you're groovin'
there's always a chance
somebody watches
and might wanna make romance
Move your body, ooo baby, you dance all night
to the groove and feel alright
Everybody's groovin' on like a fool
But if you see me spread out and let me in
Baby just party high and low
Let me step into your erotic zone
Move it up
Turn it 'round
ooo Shake it down
OOWW
You can love me when you want to babe
This is such a groovy party baby
We're here face to face
Everybody's swingin'
This is such a groovy place
All the young ladies are so fine
You're movin your body easy with no doubts
I know what you thinkin' baby
you wanna turn me out
I think I'm gonna let you do it babe
Keep on dancin'
You got to get it
Got to give it up
(repeat until end)
Why can't we be friends - War
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you 'round for a long long time
I really 'membered you when you drink my wine
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you walkin' down in Chinatown
I called you but you could not look around
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I bring my money to the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
The color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as we can live in harmony
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I'd kinda like to be the President
so I can show you how your money's spent
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Sometimes I don't speak too bright
but yet I know what I'm talking about
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I know you're working for the CIA
they wouldn't have you in the Mafia
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
"LDN" - Lily Allen
Riding through the city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn't get me down and I feel OK
Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, but he's sitting with a slapper
Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh you might frown
Walkin' round London town
[Chorus]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies
There was a little old lady, who was walking down the road
She was struggling with bags from Tesco
There were people from the city having lunch in the park
I believe that it's called al fresco
Then a kid came along to offer a hand
But before she had time to accept it
hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
Cause he's got all her jewelery and wallet
You might laugh you might frown
walking round London town
[Chorus]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies
Life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life
Life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life
[Chorus x2]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
[x2]
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies
Lisa Stansfield lyrics - All Around The World
Spoken:
I dont know where my baby is
But Ill find him, somewhere, somehow
Ive got to let him know how much I care
Ill never give up looking for my baby
Chorus:
Been around the world and i, i, i
I cant find my baby
I dont know when, I dont know why
Why hes gone away
And I dont know where he can be, my baby
But Im gonna find him
We had a quarrel and I let myself go
I said so many things, things he didnt know
And I was oh oh so bad
And I dont think hes comin back, mm mm
He gave the reason, the reasons he should go
And he said so many things he never said before
And he was oh oh so mad
And I dont think hes comin, comin back
I did too much lyin, wasted too much time,
Now Im here acryin, i, i, i
Chorus
So open hearted, he never did me wrong
I was the one, the weakest one of all
And now Im oh oh so sad
And I dont think hes comin back, comin back
I did too much lyin, wasted too much time,
Now Im here acryin, i, i, i
Chorus x 2
Im gonna find him, my baby
I did too much lyin, wasted too much time,
Now Im here acryin, i, i, i
Chorus
Ive been around the world, lookin from my baby
Been around the world, and Im gonna
Im gonna find him

Odyssey lyrics - Native New Yorker
New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh
Runnin' pretty, New York City girl
Twenty-five, thirty-five
Hello, baby, New York City girl
You grew up ridin' the subways, running with people
Up in Harlem, down on Broadway
You're no tramp, but you're no lady, talkin' that street talk
You're the heart and soul of New York City
And love, love is just a passing word
It's the thought that you had in a taxi cab that got left on the curb
When he dropped you off and he stated firm
Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now [You should know by now]
You're a native New Yorker
New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh
Music plays, everyone's dancin' closer and closer
Makin' friends and findin' lovers
There you are lost in the shadows, searchin' for someone [Searchin' for
someone]
To set you free from New York City
And, whoa, where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star, win the applause
Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]
You're a native New Yorker
No one opens the door
For a native New Yorker
[Runnin' pretty, New York City girl]
Ooh...ooh...ooh...
Native, native, native New Yorker
Where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score, you should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker, oh, oh, oh
[Native, native, native new Yorker]
You're a native New Yorker
Whoa, oh, ho, ho, you're a native New Yorker
You should know the score
[Native, native, native new Yorker]
You're a native New Yorker
What you waitin' for, no one opens the door
[You're a native New Yorker]
For a native, for a native New Yorker
The Hold Steady lyrics - Stuck Between Stations
There are nights when I think Sal Paradise was right.
Boys and Girls in America have such a sad time together.
Sucking off each other at the demonstrations
Making sure their makeup’s straight
Crushing one another with colossal expectations.
Dependent, undisciplined, and sleeping late.
She was a really cool kisser and she wasn’t all that strict of a Christian.
She was a damn good dancer but she wasn’t all that great of a girlfriend.
She likes the warm feeling but she’s tired of all the dehydration.
Most nights are crystal clear
But tonight it’s like it’s stuck between stations
On the radio.
The devil and John Berryman
Took a walk together.
They ended up on Washington
Talking to the river.
He said “I’ve surrounded myself with doctors
And deep thinkers.
But big heads with soft bodies
Make for lousy lovers.”
There was that night that we thought John Berryman could fly.
But he didn’t
So he died.
She said “You’re pretty good with words
But words won’t save your life.”
And they didn’t.
So he died.
He was drunk and exhausted but he was critically acclaimed and respected.
He loved the Golden Gophers but he hated all the drawn out winters.
He likes the warm feeling but he’s tired of all the dehydration
Most nights were kind of fuzzy
But that last night he had total retention.
These Twin Cities kisses
Sound like clicks and hisses.
We all tumbled down and
Drowned in the Mississippi River.
We drink
We dry up
Then we crumble to dust
Simply Red lyrics - Stay
Say did I thank you for your kindness
It's just the way you are
The sympathetic things you say and do
Made me love you from afar
Now I need to know you and bring myself a little closer, yeah
The chance to hold you in my arms and put our love in motion
Makes me say
Stay lady, stay baby stay
Cos I would rather smile than cry
Stay lady, stay baby stay
Just the way you are with me
You ask me 'bout the dress you're wearing
I just love the way you are
Now don't you change a single thing for me
To me girl you're the star
You supported me, with love, honour and devotion, yeah
Now you can believe in me and share in loves emotions
And make me say
Stay lady, stay baby stay
Cos I would rather smile than cry
Stay lady, stay baby stay
Just the way you are with me
Stay with me!
Just the way you are with me
Stay lady, stay baby stay
Just the way you are
With love and affection
Stay lady, stay baby stay
You supported me
With love, honour and devotion
The Main Ingredient lyrics - Just Don't Want To Be Lonely
I don't mind when you say that you're going away
I just don't wanna be lonely,
And I don't care if you share only moments a day,
I just don't wanna be lonely,
[ Chorus ]
I'd rather be loved and needed; depended
on to give a love I can't give
When you're gone, when you're gone, I just
don't want to be lonely. I'd
just rather be loved.
[ Lyrics provided by www.mp3lyrics.org ]
I don't mind when the time sets the sun to the moon,
I just don't wanna be lonely,
Let the stairs find you there, at the end of the room,
I just don't wanna be lonely,
[ Chorus ]
[ Chorus ]
Tommy James & The Shondells lyrics - Crystal Blue Persuasion
Look over yonder
What do you see?
The sun is a'rising
Most definitely
A new day is coming
Ooh ooh
People are changing
Ain't it beautiful
Crystal blue persuasion
Better get ready
To see the light
Love, love is the answer
Oooh ooh
And that's all right
So don't you give up now
So easy to find
Just look to your soul
And open your mind
Crystal blue persuasion
Mmm, mmm
It's a new vibration
Crystal blue persuasion
Crystal...blue persuasion
Maybe tomorrow
When he looks down
On every green field
And every town
All of his children
And every nation
They'll be peace and good brotherhood
Crystal blue persuasion
Yeah
Crystal blue persuasion
Aha
Crystal blue persuasion
Aha
Crystal blue persuasion
Aha
Ohhhh
Crystal blue persuasion
Aha
Joshua Radin lyrics - Closer
So, we're alone again
i wish it were over
we seem to never end
only get closer
to the point where i can take no more
the clouds in your eyes
down your face they pour
won't you be the new one burn to shine
i take the blue ones every time
walk me down your broken line
all you have to do is cry
hush my baby now
your talking is just noise and won't lay me down amongst
your toys in a room where i can take no more
the clouds in your eyes
down your face they pour
won't you be the new one burn to shine
i take the blue ones every time
walk me down your broken line
all you have to do is cry
photographs and brightly colored paper
are your mask you wear in this caper
that is our life
we walk right into the strife
and a tear from your eye brings me home
the clouds in your eyes
down your face they pour
won't you be the new one burn to shine
i take the blue ones every time
walk me down your broken line
all you have to do is cry
