"Father He Said"

"Father He Said"


Father's waiting 'round the corner
Ticket in his hand
Wants to help his daughter
Protect and understand
Daughter's needing some security
The comfort of a man
Can't face the pain of losing
She's afraid to love again
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus:]
My father he said, "don't be misled."
My father he said, "is heart in your hands?"

(Way far, far away)
Daughter's feelin' kinda shaky
Heartache and trouble everywhere
There ain't no love she's looking
For someone who cares
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus]

(Take the train far, cooling down)
Daughter's waiting at the station
Got a ticket in her hand
Bound for her destination
She'll try to love again
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus]

Father, father, father

[Chorus]

Father, father, father he said...

"Get Ready, Get Set"

"Get Ready, Get Set"


Night's gonna fall
Letting the stars shine through and through
Time on the wall
Bringing me closer to the
One I want
I can't wait no more, no, no

Lost like a child
Even my knees are shaking
Caught for a while
Under a wave that's breaking
Over me
In his arms I float

When he looks at me this way
I know what he'll say

[Chorus:]
Get ready, get set
You ain't seen nothing yet
All day, all night
Here's something you can't forget
Get ready, get set
You ain't seen nothing yet
All day, all night
Here's something you can't forget

I could try
Imagining something better than
You and I
Making sweet love together
Taking me much farther than before
When he looks at me this way
I know just what he'll say

Ooh Ooh
When he looks at me this way
I know just what he'll say

Na na na na
Na na na na

"Give Me All"

"Give Me All"


I wanna get deeper
Deeper than skin
I wanna be more than
Just another friend

I'm ready to love you
With all of my heart
But I won't give it if you
Can't do your part

[Chorus:]
A little bit just ain't it
Give me all
A little love is not enough
Give me all

[Bridge:]
Need your lovin'
Need your kissin'
Don't want nothin'
To be missin'

You're givin' me portions
You wanna move fast
What you're giving
Is never gonna last

I wanna be closer
I need to have more
'Cause I'm gonna love you
Like no one before

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

I'm on fire babe
You wanna build me up
Just to let me down

"Goldfinger"

"Goldfinger"



Goldfinger
He's the man, the man with the Midas touch
A spider's touch

Such a cold finger
Beckons you to enter his web of sin
But don't go in

Golden words he will pour in your ear
But his lies can't disguise what you fear
For a golden girl knows when he's kissed her
It's the kiss of death...

From Mister Goldfinger
Pretty girl, beware of his heart of gold
This heart is cold

Golden words he will pour in your ear
But his lies can't disguise what you fear
For a golden girl knows when he's kissed her
It's the kiss of death...

From Mister Goldfinger
Pretty girl, beware of his heart of gold
This heart is cold
He loves only gold
Only gold
He loves gold
He loves only gold
Only gold
He loves gold

"Got To Be There"

"Got To Be There"


Got to be there
Be there in the mornin'

Got to be there
Be there in the mornin'
When he says hello to the world
Got to be there
Be there bringin' good times
And show him that I'm his girl
Oh what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know he loves me

[Chorus:]
'Cause when I look in his eyes
I realize
I need him sharin' the world beside me
That's why I've got to be there

Be there in the mornin'
And welcomin' him into the world
And show him that I'm his girl
When he says hello world - world
(The moment, the moment I know he loves me)
He loves me

[Chorus]

Be there when the love begins
And that's everywhere he goes
I've got to be there so he knows
That when he's with me he's home
He's home

Got to be there, to be there

"Hair"
(feat. Larry Graham)

"Hair"
(feat. Larry Graham)



People ask me everywhere
"Is that really all your hair?"
I just tell `em, "If it ain't
Then it sure don't mean
That now I can't"

I just don't believe it's fair
To judge a girl by the length of her hair

Take two words like "hip" and "square"
The truth will shine and not your hair
Even the blind can almost see
What's outside you and inside me

Down or high, truth or lie
A weak girl's laugh can be
A strong girl's cry

Black or blond or nappy or fair -
You can't judge nobody by hair
If I thought that you would care
I'd wear a wig up under my hair

Down or high, truth or lie
A weak girl's laugh can be
A strong girl's cry

"Hazels Hips"

"Hazels Hips"



Hazel's hips are a concert of contours and curves
As she slips to and fro 'round the tables she serves
I buy six meals a day in my favorite cafe
'Cause they see Hazel that way

Hazel's eyes are divine and her hair is so fine

Yeah but her hips bring the tips

Hazel's hips have a rhythm so gently controlled
That her trips to the kitchen are a joy to behold
I love to just sit and gaze at the way Hazel sways
When she's carrying trays

Hazel's eyes are divine and her hair is so fine
Yeah but those hips bring the tips

Hazel takes me my soup, serves me my cup of tea
And my heart flips to see Hazels's smiling at me"
So I say "honey bunch can I have you for lunch?"
But Hazel just gives me a hunch

And says "don't hand me no line 'bout you think I'm so fine"
'Cause yes the tips
Ooh Hazel's hips

"Heed The Warning"

"Heed The Warning"


There are so many things in life to know
Cause someone says it's right don't make it so
This is someone somewhere who's taking notes
There's someone telling lies sowing wild oats
When you are moving fast, you can succeed
Just how long can you last at twice the speed

[Chorus:]
Here's a warning: two wrongs don't make a right
Heed the warning, and everything will be alright

I'll keep good meter, and I'll take my time
I'll try to stay in beat and live in rhyme
I know from love I came, to love I'll go
I'll live and learn and love and try to grow
When you are moving fast, you can succeed
Just how long can you last at twice the speed

"Hey Big Spender"

"Hey Big Spender"



The minute you walked in the joint,
I could see you were a man of distinction,
A real big spender,
Good looking, so refined.
Say, wouldn't you like to know
What's going on in my mind?
So, let me get right to the point,
I don't pop my cork for ev'ry guy I see.
Hey, big spender, spend...
A little time with... me... me... me!
Do you wanna have fun?
How's about a few laughs?
I can show you a... good time...
Do you wanna have fun... fun... fun?
How's about a few laughs
Laughs laughs
(I can show you a good time)
(Good time)
(Good time)
(Good time)

Are you ready for...
How would you like a...
Let me show you a... (good time)
Hey, big spender...
Hey, big spender...
The minute you walked in the joint,
I could see you were a man of distinction,
A real big spender.
Good looking, so refined.
Say wouldn't you like to know
What's going on in my mind?
So, let me get right to the point,
I don't pop my cork for every guy I see.
Hey, big spender,
Hey, big spender!
Hey, big spender!
Spend a little time with me!

"High Wire (The Aerialist)"

"High Wire (The Aerialist)"



Up on the wire
I like to climb and play with the sky
The people far below
The air is clear
And I can't receive
The whole world is smiling
Life is so blind
And when you dare to go up in the air
And leave the earth up behind you
As I step and leap into a space beyond
Up high for a moment
Alive and so afraid but alive
As I push against the sky
And my heart is open wide
Be a term ... to join
When you can raise the edge of the sky
Life seem tense and strong
It's not to long before you run
Beyond your horizons
Up on the wire
The line is thin and you must have ... against the sky
So precising
But life is to go on as far as you can see
Up high for a moment
Alive and so afraid but alive
And the wires disappear
Up on the wire
I like to climb and play with the sky
The people far below
The air is clear
And I can't receive
The whole world is smiling
Life is so blind
And when you dare to go up in the air
And leave the earth up behind you
As I step ............. leavin to a space .... just for a moment
Alive and so afraid
But alive
As I push against the sky
And my heart is open wide
