Loveland

Loveland, Loveland
I got a searchlight, I got a lovelight
Loveland
Beauteous isles of Loveland
Hey, hey I got it
I'm talkin' about love, whoa
Love, love power is the power of the hour, ho
Love, love power is the power of the hour, ho no hoa
I will show you all the shortcuts to Loveland

The Lovelake can get rough
Hey, hey I got it
I'm talkin' about love
Love, love power is the power of the hour, ho
Love, love power is the power of the hour, ho no hoa
Give me, give me your hand
and we'll steer a course to Loveland


The Lovelake can get rough
Air get tense, waves get choppy
Embraces cold and kisses sloppy
Oh baby I got it, and you got it, love
I'm gonna take you to a place where;
But tonight we'll make (wooo)
Loveland, Loveland, Loveland we got it,
We got it, you wait, I'll open the gate

Deep Sleep

Walking backwards into the sea
Bodies, Angels, like musical peaks
Dreamed up by you and me in our sleep
You come walking over pillows and sheets

Walking backwards into the night
Caught tight in the sheets
Our dreams entangled twisted by our heat
You come walking over pillows and sheets
It's the coldest part of the night

Mesopotamia

Turn your watch
Turn your watch back
About a hundred thousand years
A hundred thousand years
I'll meet you by the third pyramid
I'll meet you by the third pyramid
Ah come on, that's right, I want
For me in Mesopotamia

We're going down to meet it
I ain't no student
Feel those vibrations
Of ancient culture
I know a neat excavation
Before I talk I should read a book
But there's one thing That I do know
There's a lot of ruins In Mesopotamia

Six or eight thousand years ago
They laid down the law
They laid down the law
aa aa aa aa aa aaa
Six or eight thousand years ago
They laid down the law
aa aa aa aa aa aaa

I'll meet you by the third pyramid
I'll meet you by the third pyramid
Ah come on, that's right, I want
For me in Mesopotamia

We're going down to meet it
Now I ain't no student
Hear those vibrations
Of ancient culture
I know a neat excavation
Before I talk I should read a book
Mesopotamia that's where I wanna go
But there's one thing that I do know
Mesopotamia that's where I wanna go
There's a lot of ruins in Mesopotamia

Six or eight thousand years ago
They laid down the law
They laid down the law
aa aa aa aa aa aaa
Six or eight thousand years ago
They laid down the law
aa aa aa aa aa aaa
In Mesopotamia
aa aa aa aa aa aaa
They laid down the law
aa aa aa aa aa aaa
In Mesopotamia
aa aa aa aa aa aaa

Cake

Take a little, take a little nip,
take a little sip, take a little more.
Spread icing nice and thick between the layers.
Ooh let it drip down the sides. Who cares.
Done with the batter.

I am watching it drip down the sides
(If you want a better batter better beat it harder.)
I am watching it drip down the sides
I said according to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake
According to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake.


Throw That Beat In The Garbage Can

Here it comes again, drivin' me nuts
Can't control my feet or stop shakin' my butt
The neighbours are complaining, it's getting out of hand
Throw that beat in the garbage can
Toss that beat, beat, beat, beat
Toss that beat, beat, beat, beat
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
It's drivin' me crazy Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Stop that beat, it makes me apprehensive
Sweat ruins my clothes, they are very expensive

The neighbours are complaining, it's getting out of hand
Throw that beat in the garbage can
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
It's drivin' me crazy Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Toss that beat, beat, beat, beat (repeat)


Nip It In The Bud

Oh Wo Oh Nip it in the bud
No Wo Oh Nip it in the bud
Oh Wo Oh I say 'Froze you'
No Wo Oh Nothin' I can do
Can't, oh oh, can't give it in Ho Oh Oh Woooah
Wo Oh Oh Nip it in the bud
Wo Oh Oh Nip it in the bud
You lock me out, you lock me out, huh
Lock me out, ah, lock me out
Nip it in the bud, I don't know
Give it a shove, hey hey
Head 'em up, head 'em up
Move 'em out, move 'em out, hooah
I'm no fool!
Ain't got no place to go
I don't know, I don't care
If you just go on and get me there
Oh, I don't want to ruffle your feathers
I don't care if you don't go
I'll just go do and beware ho oh ho oh

Nip it in the bud Wo Oh Oh
Give it a shove
Hey you gotta head 'em up, move 'em out hooah
Ahhhh, come take me away
Say, come take me away
Nip it in the bud...
