UP AND DOWN (2001)

I'M GONNA GET RIGHT DOWN TO IT
NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES
WHATEVER THE CONSEQUENCE

I'M GONNA SING 'TIL THE DAY I DIE
DON'T CARE WHAT IT BRINGS
WHATEVER I GOT TO GIVE
I GOTTA GET IT RIGHT

EVEN IF I GOTTA
JUMP UP AND DOWN
JUMP UP AND DOWN LIKE THIS
I'LL JUMP UP AND DOWN

GONNA RAISE MY HANDS UP HIGH
DON'T CARE WHAT THEY THINK
A CHANCE I GET TO LIVE
GOTTA GET IT RIGHT
-CHORUS-


LOOKING FOR ANOTHER BRANDY (2000)

WHEN I WAS YOUNG
BRANDY WAS MY GIRL
SHE WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL OH
I'D EVER SEEN IN THE WORLD
SHE WAS MY WONDER
OH BUT I WAS IN DOUBT
SHE WAS MY ANSWER BUT NOW IT'S TOO LATE
I HAD TO FIGURE IT OUT

SHE WAS MY FIRST, BUT NEVER MY LAST ONE
AND NOW IT'S MY ONE AND ONLY REGRET
SO I'M GONNA SPEND ALL OF THE REST OF MY LIFE
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER BRANDY

WE STAYED UP ALL NIGHT SOMETIMES
TALKING ABOUT NOTHING AT ALL
LAUGHING AND JOKING ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES
OH WE HAD IT ALL
SHE WAS MY WONDER
OH BUT I WAS IN DOUBT
SHE WAS MY ANSWER BUT NOW IT'S TOO LATE
I HAD TO FIGURE IT OUT

WE TALKED ABOUT LOVE AND FOREVER
THOUGHT IT WOULD NEVER COME TO AN END
WE TALKED ABOUT US AND BEING TOGETHER
THOUGHT I WOULD ALWAYS BE HER MAN
SHE WAS MY FIRST, BUT NEVER MY LAST ONE
AND NOW IT'S MY ONE AND ONLY REGRET
SO I'M GONNA SPEND ALL OF THE REST OF MY LIFE
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER BRANDY

OH YEAH SOMETHING SWEET TO EASE MY PAIN
REMEMBERING WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT LOVE AND FOREVER
THOUGHT IT WOULD NEVER COME TO AN END
WE TALKED ABOUT US AND BEING TOGETHER
THOUGHT I WOULD ALWAYS BE HER MAN
SHE WAS MY FIRST, BUT NEVER MY LAST ONE
AND NOW IT'S MY ONE AND ONLY REGRET
SO I'M GONNA SPEND ALL OF THE REST OF MY LIFE
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER BRANDY

STILL LIVIN' (1991)

IF YOU WONDER HOW I'M FEELING
AND IF YOU WONDER HOW I'M DOING
AFTER ALL THIS TIME

I NEVER STOPPED THINKING ABOUT YOU
AND I NEVER STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU
BUT I'LL NEVER STOP LIVING WITHOUT YOU
I'LL NEVER STOP LIVING WITHOUT YOU

AND IF YOU LOOK BACK ON YESTERDAYS
IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYWAY, IT DOESN'T PAY

-CHORUS-

IF YOU WONDER HOW I'M FEELING
AND IF YOU WONDER HOW I'M DOING
AFTER ALL THIS TIME
AND IF YOU LOOK BACK ON YESTERDAYS
IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYWAY
IT DOESN'T PAY


MASQUERADE (1995)

I'M GETTING READY
I'M PUTTING ON MY COSTUME TONIGHT
OH THE ONE WITH THE HAPPIER FACE
THE SIMPLE ONE THAT'S SMILING ALL THE TIME
FOR THE MASQUERADE PARTY.


LOVE COLLAGE (1986)

SOMEWHERE
LOVE IS MAKING
AND SOMEWHERE ELSE
ANOTHER HEART IS BREAKING

BUT WHEN IT COMES TOGETHER
THE BROKEN HEARTS WILL BRAID
AND WHEN IT COMES TOGETHER
LIES WILL DISSIPATE
WHEN IT COMES TOGETHER
DREAMS WILL THEN COME TRUE
WHEN WE COME TOGETHER
ME AND YOU


NOT IN THE MOOD (1992)

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'D DO WITHOUT HER LOVE
I DON'T KNOW ALL THE THINGS SHE'S THINKING OF
I CAN SEE ALL THE LOVE LOCKED UP INSIDE
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SHE'S REALLY MINE

I WANNA HEAR HER VOICE
I WANNA SEE HER SMILE
I WANNA SPEND MY LIFE
GIVING HER ALL MY LOVE
IF SHE'D BE WITH ME
I COULD BE WITH HER
I WANNA LOVE MY GIRL
BUT SHE'S NOT IN THE MOOD!

I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE REALLY THINKS OF ME
I COULD SHOW HER SHE'S JUSTTHE ONE I NEED
I CAN'T TELL IF HER HEART IS MEANT FOR MINE
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SHE'S REALLY MINE
-CHORUS-

ONLY 4 U & ME (1992)

AH, OH SAY YEAH!
ONLY FOR YOU AND ME SAY YEAH!

GIMME GIMME ALL YOUR LOVE
GIMME GIMME ALL OF YOU TONIGHT

AH, AHA YEAH!
ONLY FOR AND ME SAY YEAH YEAH!


LED MY WAY (1999)

FOLLOW MY LEAD AND YOU'LL BE LED MY WAY
OH MOVE IT SLOW
GROOVE
GOT TO GROOVE
GOT TO GROOVE IT NOW
GOT NO HESITATION WITH MY LIQUID MEDICATION
SMOOTH GOING DOWN
SOOTHING SOOTHIN'

WALKING IN THE MOJO DUNGEON
I'VE GOT TO FIND MY LADY
IN MY CONDITION SHE COULD BE THE ONE NOW TO DO IT
CUZ I'VE GOT TO KNOW
GOT NO RESERVATIONS WITH MY LIQUID MEDICATION
SMOOTH GOING DOWN
SOOTHING SOOTHIN' OH YEAH

FOLLOW MY SIGN AND YOU'LL BE LED MY WAY
OH MOVE IT DOWN
GROOVE
GOT TO GROOVE
GOT TO GROOVE IT YEAH
FOR YOU YEAH, TO BE LED MY WAY
LED MY WAY


MORSAL OF FOOD (1997)

You promise to take care of me
if I flay myself, and serve you my flesh,
be undefined, just like the rest.

The only way you'll leave me alone,
is if I walk undead, and slay all my dreams,
wandering around injected with needs,
standing in the line with all the other feed.

I am so grateful for this trickle of bread.
I am so grateful for this table I'm under.
If I had the power instead of you
I would engrave you with this infinite number.

I am so thankful for this morsal of food.
I am so thankful for this room I live in.
If I had the money instead of you then
I would repay you with what I've been given.
I will repay you with what I've been given.



PRISONERS OF THE TIMES (1987)

SOMEWHERE IN A SMALL SOUTHERN CAF
AND SOMEWHERE ELSE HIGH UPON A STAGE

PRISONERS OF THE TIMES
STRUGGLE TO MAKE A CHANGE
HUNTING THE NEW FREEDOM
PRISONERS OF THE TIMES
STRUGGLE TO BREAK THE CHAINS
EMOTIONAL COUP DE TAT
PRISONERS OF THE TIMES
HOPING TO FIND A WAY
FOLLOW ELUSIVE TONGUES
PRISONERS OF THE TIMES
WILLING TO SUFFOCATE FOR LUNGS

SOMEWHERE IN A PARCHED AFRICAN FIELD
AND SOMEWHERE ELSE IN A HIGHER COURT APPEAL
-CHORUS-


WAY OF MY WORLD (1988)

I'VE SAID IT BEFORE AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN
YOU'LL NEVER FINISH EVEN THOUGH YOU BEGIN
AND I KNOW MY LIFE IS A PUZZLE
AND I WON'T PUT IT TOGETHER UNTIL I DIE
THAT'S THE WAY OF MY WORLD, FOREVER.

I'LL SAY IT ONCE MORE AND A LOOK IN YOUR EYES
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE UNTIL YOU TRY
AND I KNOW THAT LOVE IS A MUZZLE
AND I WON'T FALL TO IT WHILE I'M ALIVE
THAT'S THE WAY OF MY WORLD, FOREVER.


ALL NIGHT (1977)

HAVE A LITTLE WINE
THE DRINKS ARE ON ME
SIT BACK, ENJOY YOURSELF
LET THE MUSIC SET YOU FREE

ALL NIGHT, ALL NIGHT, ALL NIGHT
HAVE SOME FUN AND ENJOY YOURSELF TONIGHT
ALL NIGHT, ALL NIGHT
LAUGH AND PUT YOUR WORRIES ON THE SHELF

STAY A LITTLE WHILE
YOU'VE NOTHING TO LOSE
AND YOU KNOW THAT I KNOW
JUST WHAT I'M GONNA DO ABOUT YOU
-CHORUS-

TAKIN' OFF (1980)

SLOWLY I'LL RISE. I'LL FLY
TAKIN' OFF

WITHOUT SUN AND RAIN, THERE'S NO RAINBOW
WITHOUT END THERE'S NO POT OF GOLD
WITH NO HIGHER VIEW, NO TOMORROW
WITHOUT WINGS THE JOURNEY IS COLD
SLOWLY I'LL RISE. I'LL FLY

WITH NO SKIN AND WOOD THERE'S NO RHYTHM
IN NO TIME THE BEAT WILL UNFOLD
WITHOUT WORDS THE STORY IS HIDDEN
WITH NO PEN THE TALE WILL BE BOLD
SLOWLY I'LL RISE. I'LL FLY

TAKIN' OFF
