I don't wanna give U my love
Cuz I don't wanna lose my mind
I don't wanna give U my love
Cuz if I do it's gonna be the last time
I never want 2 feel this way again
If I can't be your lover, I don't wanna be your friend, no
I don't wanna be friends, no
I don't wanna hold your hand (I don't wanna hold your hand)
Uh uh, cuz I just wanna follow U everywhere, sho'nuff
I don't wanna see U dance, no, no (No)
I don't even really want 2 take the chance (Cuz I don't even...)
Of fallin' in love with U baby
Cuz if U ever said beautiful words 2 me
If I wanna be your fantasy, yes
I wanna dance, yes
Ooh, baby
I don't wanna give U my love
I don't wanna go 2 fast
Cuz if I do U just might stay (Will U stay with me, baby?)
U just might stay
I guess I have a lonely dance (Lonely dance)
The longer that I feel this way (The longer that I feel this way)
And I never want 2 feel this way again (I never wanna feel)
If I can't be your lover
I don't wanna be your friend (I can't be just friends)
No {repeated}
I don't wanna be friends, no
No {repeated}
I just want this 2 end
My my my... baby, oh yeah
I don't wanna give U my love (I don't wanna give U my love)
Cuz I don't wanna lose my mind (Just might lose, lose, lose my mind)
Go home, baby
U know U can't handle this
Magnificent
Yeah
So much anticipation 4 this conversation
Such a long time
Like a meeting of 2 nations, this special occasion
Got us both tongue tied
Let me just say that I've respected U from a distance
I've been watching U, sho' been watching U
In the time it took the others 2 say your name
We became magnificence
What I'm about 2 say will astound U
But I can only say it when no one's around U
CHORUS:
Magnificent, oh oh
Magnificent, when it pounds U
Magnificent, oh oh
The voice that U hear is the alchemy of your mind
The 2 of us like stardust, we go back, yeah, we must
2 the dawning of all time (Time, time, time, time)
2 the nuclear reaction, the only present satisfaction
The sweet and sticky kind
Regardless of what they say 2 U (Say 2 U)
The moment U hear me speak they're through
(No matter what they say 2 U, they just through)
Like paradise, I'm so nice
I never lose my effect on U
What I'm about 2 say will astound U
But I can only say it when no one's around U
CHORUS
The voice that U hear is the alchemy of your mind
Counting backwards, a thousand 2 one
Everything we do is so much fun
2 our time before time began
Before I was a woman, before U were a man
Before sex and race ever mattered
Tell me now do U understand?
What I'm about 2 say will astound U
But I can only say it when no one's around U
What I'm about 2 say will astound U
But I can only say it when no one's around U
CHORUS
Magnificent {x3} Oh oh
The voice that U hear is the alchemy of your mind {fade out}
Silver Tongue
Love me while U watch the time
And if I falter or lose my rhyme
U will drop me like a useless dime
Cuz U ain't no friend of mine, no, no
Steer me wrong and drop me off
From a swan dive to a bellyflop
The shallow waters that flood your heart
Will 4ever keep us apart
U never cease 2 amaze me
Though sometimes I just don't understand, no, no
The chances U took 2 play your hand
But U never took my love when it was here
My heart's been through it a thousand times
Like a fair fruit upon the vine
The shiny promise that fades with time
But the seeds are sown and the hope defined
Such a sad way 2 lose someone, oh yes it is
2 live by "better said than done"
The song and dance that hides your gun
From those who buy the silver from your tongue
And U never cease to amaze me, uh uh
But sometimes I just don't understand, I don't
The chances U took 2 play your hand
But U never took my love when it was here
The song and dance that hides your gun
From those who buy the silver from your tongue
The United
States Of Division
2004, still at war and everybody hates Americans
Let's go!
Come on
Flyin' in an aeroplane with pen in hand
Over miles and miles of deep blue
Wonderin' if it was all part of a master plan
Forget the 1 and become 2
How could your brother hear the same music
(Music, music, music, music)
Yet somehow dance 2 a different tune?
I guess that once U go divide this precious land
This precious land will divide U
Sing!
CHORUS:
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Everybody stop fighting
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Everybody make love
Drivin' a brand new Cadillac through my neighborhood
Everything still look the same, uh
Everything except the fact I wish I could
Take away all the hurt and pain (Soul)
We let Supafly straighten up our curly hair (Hair)
He took the afro out the game
It's kinda cool but the guns and drugs 2 much 2 bear
10 years later Scarface came (Who U think U messin' with?)
Sing the hook
CHORUS
(Come on)
Bridge
A united state of mind will never be divided
The real definition of unity is 1
People can slam their door, disagree and fight it
But how U gonna love the Father but not love the Son?
United States of Division
Walkin' down the street, no flag in hand
No stars and stripes, no claim 2 land
No crescent moon, just a holy man, holy man
How far from heaven must we go
Before the winds of change will blow and show
This world how it's supposed 2 be
Land of peace and harmony?
Come on
Everybody stop fighting
Everybody make love
Everybody stop fighting
United States of Division
People can slam their door, disagree and fight it
But how U gonna say U love the Father and not love the Son?
United States of Division
Black (Division)
White (Division)
Straight (Division)
Gay (Division)
Christian (Division)
Muslim
Why must I say "God Bless America"
And not the rest of the world?
(Oh say can U see?)
I love my country but I love God more
Every man, women, boy and girl
Ooh, can U sing with me?
CHORUS {x2}
(Come on)
(Everybody)
(Oh)
(Put your gun down)
(Hey)
(Everybody gather round, gather round)
(Talk 2 me)
(What is this rush 2 declare war?)
(What we fightin' 4?)
(Hey)
(Oh)
(Come here, baby)
Talkin' 2 United States, United States, United States of Division!
Everybody make music
Everybody make love GlassCutter
Yeah...
This is the story 'bout a one and only mother
There never was before and there never'll be another
Heck-a motor scooter, so fine U wanna shoot her
Dressed like butter, holdin' a cup o'glass cutter
Glass cutter
Oh yeah
This is the jam about a purple fantasy
Every man know it's how it's s'posed 2 be
So sharp (sharp) make a brother heart go flutter (flutter flutter)
Dress holdin' onto a cup or glass cutter
Glass cutter
This about as hard as Arabian math
Water drops jumpin' when ya takin' a bath
The towel unraveled till it looks like gravel
All a brother can do is just laugh, uh
But under his breath he gon' mutter
But under his breath he gon' mutter
But under his breath he gon' mutter
"Baby got a cup o'glass cutter"
This about a mother got a brother sprung
I looked up the word "heaven", saw a picture of her tongue
If she was a song, she'd be sung
'stead of rhyming I'd be a singer so I could brung
A parmesan, cheddar cheese
Please, U better believe she'd get what she want
Cuz I want just what she got
I'm a new car, and she's a lot, a whole lotta woman
Girl got a case'o 2 fine
She got it bad and that's good
I'm gonna tell her 2 her face, cuz another brutha wouldn't
I don't wanna make her heartbeat go flutter
Dressed like butter, cup or glass cutter {x2}
U make my heart go flutter, glass cutter {x3}
{scatting}
S.S.T.
Who will be a guest in your tent?
Certainly not the ones who don't wanna repent
And keep giving guns 2 the poorest of our nation's sons
Who is gonna call U by name
With no confusion, trinity or preacher's vain?
Who says it every time (Every time)
And opens up the eyes of the blind?
Who will be the one in his bed?
Certainly not the one who put the thorns on his head
And wished him dead while they took his daily bread
Which one is of value 2 U? (2 U )
The one depletin' the oil supply
Or the one that renews it
And keeps the peace (Keep the peace)
Like the groove in Sade's "Sweetest Taboo"?
CHORUS:
Give it 2 me, give it 2 me
The Sweetest (the sweetest {first chorus only})
Give it 2 me, give it 2 me
Give it 2 me, give it 2 me
The Sweetest
Can I groove a little bit?
Let me groove a little bit
Who will be a guest in your tent? (Who dat...?)
Are U gonna be happy with how your life is spent?
Did U have open arms 4 each and everybody U met?
Did U let them die in the rain, (In the rain)
Endless war, poverty or hurricane?
It's time 4 another groove
Like Sade's "Sweetest Taboo"
CHORUS
Come on, come on
CHORUS
Oh, yeah
Turn it right down
Be cool, everybody
New Orleans
Feel Better, Feel Good, Feel Wonderful
I could tell by the color of Ur energy field
U thought this game was over chemical peel [chemic appeal?]
U try 2 do me like my good brother Steve
But I got another funky trick up my sleeve
Expecting me 2 freak on U a little bit more
But U get nothin’ but well-wishers and flowers galore
I mean no harm, I still got Ur back
U can come and drink my wine, as a matter of fact
I don’t know what U thought when U spit in my face
But this dimension ain’t the time or the place
I don’t know who told U U could stand next 2 me
But I got a guitar that could part a sea
Don’t mean no disrespect I aint tryin’ 2 brag
But it might be the same 1 that tapped on the crag
And it brought forth water that quenched Ur thirst
And we’ll keep feeding ya, but first things first!
Song Of The Heart ( available on the Happy
Feet soundtrack )
(We have to find our heart songs all by ourselves)
(it the voice you hear inside, who you truely are)
(raise your voices brothers and sisters!)
(praise the great one who put songs in our hearts!)
U might make a different song, yes that's right it's true
That don't make anybody more or less as good as u
If u can't feel the music that's all u really need
Then turn this party all the way out
Good time guaranteed
Everybody get up
Clap your hands and dance 2 the beat
Whatever u do little darlin' it's cool
Just get up out your seat
And wave your flag because everybody plays a part
One world united singing the song of the heart
Look ... everybody makes mistakes
Oh yeah, not one or two (right!)
But that don't make the dirty little things they say about u true
(U tell 'em!)
Step aside little babies and watch me do my thing
I don't even need a good reason to do
Listen to me sing
Everybody get up
Clap your hands and show them what u got
Tonight we gonna jam from now until eternity
Don't u stop - make it hot oh!
And wave your flag because everybody plays a part
One world united singing this song of the heart
Come on! Watch me now!
Oh, I don't care what the people say
This is my life
I just got to like that okay (okay?)
They can go fly their momma's kite
Hooray!
(We can be together if we all do our part
(I'd like to if you let me sing the song of my heart)
(We can be together if we all do our part
(I'd like to if you let me sing the song of my heart)
(we got it!) All right I'm going to tell u one more time
Listen ...

One world
One world united

Whateva! Get going y'all!
The song of the heart
PFUnk
Drop it now
Gonna stop it now
Gonna git it now
Here he comes again
He’s gonna try to ruin my day
Never had a reason to dog me out
Di’n’t never make ‘em do what they say
Nine times outta ten
Ask ‘im if he did he say no
I’ll never be a turncoat
Never be the one
To sell your name at the grocery store
You come around
Funny stuff be goin’ down
Ask him how it happened
Yo he don’t know
But I don’t care what people may say
I ain’t gon’ let it ruin my day
The best remedie for a basket full of lies
Is funk
Ain’t nothin’ like funky music
...
Got to gimme some of that music
Here she comes again
She got to tell the story her way
Once she’s caught a guy
That's doin’ somethin’ she don’t wanna
Takin’ money when the crime don’t pay
Every now and then
You’ll do somethin’ something that. they said
One man’s justice is another man’s fear
Don’t you wish that you could sleep in my bed?
The only reason to say my name is to get your 15 secs of fame
Nobody’s even sure what you do
But I don’t care what people may say
I ain’t gon’ let it ruin my day
The best remedie for a basket full of lies is funk
There’s nothin’ like funky music
Let the music play
Well, it might not be The Grand Progression
But it sure is funky
Right on
How you gonna cap and be gone?
I hate to let you know but it's on
You might not like the taste
But I’m still gon’ stick your face in this funk
Gossip again?
Ho. Hum.
Listen to my drum
Digital music disappears in the daytime
...yo face
Listen to my bass
Time will tell
We are
Listen to my guitar
We don’t care what people say
We ain’t gon’ let it ruin our day
The best remedy for a big, fat punk is funk
Ain’t nothin’ like funky music
Turn the music up
Are you talkin’ to me?
All right
Somebody call 9-1-1
Y’all trippin’
Look here, Weavalicious
C’mere…let me talk to you
You and your boyfriend
Lemme tell you somethin’ right now
You run up on me again
With words or otherwise
And I’mma knock both you punks out
There you have it, world
That is passing away
We don’t care where you go
But you gotta get out o’ here
Okay?
Cancer, chronic fatigue, ugly or just plain po’
I love all y’all
Don’t you ever mess with me no mo’
What time is it?
All right then
That’s it, y’all
I’m out like the Wolves in the first
But we gonna get it together though
Pookie! The limo warm?
Cool
Peace y’all
Stay funky
