Get down... C'mon baby bop baby bop baby bop yeah The first time that I saw you I just couldn't barely believe it With your little boots and your pink shirt you were my sister biscuit The first time that I fed you with your bottle you were bare and naked And now each time I see you shake your thing I just can't wait to kiss it Get up... Get down... C'mon baby bop baby bop baby bop yeah

Hot Down 03:27
11:20 pm and where are my shoes? Hot down gotta get out to town I need to see you, I need to follow your clues Hot down feeling like I'm right under you Spend cash, young and restless Hop right down to it, living your life without fear You just have to take a chance Alright You're up all night and you're feeling right Uh huh Thursday night I'm feeling over your skin Hot down gotta get away once again Wonder when I’ll ever get out of this town Top down living faster than sin Send regards to my next of kin You’re alright baby your alright baby rock me all night Ah what an amazing achievement More beautiful than god sheer quality beauty and precision Every trail leads me back to you Hot down I'm finally out of this town Cancel all calls I'm outta here and leaving this zoo Hot down my final chance to get it brand new Spend cash so young and restless Hop right down to it, living your life without fear You don't have to understand Hop right down to it, living your life without fear Spend cash so young and restless Hop right down to it, living your life without fear Yeah you're alright, baby you're alright, baby you're alright

I see you waiting you're waiting You're waiting You're waiting by the phone I hear you calling you're calling you're calling But he is never home And then you're out all night Tempting suicide Racing life on the boulevard Dressed in black like the dead Searching for someone How long can you be alone But I want to touch you And be near you I want help you But I fear you I want to relate to you and release you I wanna be cared for by you and care for you I wanna love you but what you put me through I don't know if I can ever forget But can someone ever forgive someone If they need someone as much as I need you I remember stars Twinkling in your eyes I remember you, i remember you I remember songs that we used to sing I remember you dancing in the rain I remember night And holding you so tight I remember you, I remember you

Mongo Kitty 02:29
She's on the street Once again Buying time with Madeline Then she'll meet All her friends Chasing mice and drinking wine She's Mongo, Mongo Kitty She's a survivor aaaahhhhhhh She's Mongo, Mongo Kitty Mongo Mongo Kitty She's the Queen The Queen of the city Mongo Mongo Kitty She loves the dirt The dirt of the city She's going down On the boys In her little red corvette On the town Making noise They're having fun Baby you can bet Because She's Mongo, Mongo Kitty She's a cool rider Ahhhhhhhhhh She's Mongo, Mongo Kitty

I hate it when it rains She turns and walks away Another stormy day To her it looks the same She wants so much from life but it ain't easy Carol's catastrophe Is all about the things she sees Carol's catastrophe And all the things in life she needs She makes love to the world No ordinary girl And/she wears it on her sleeve But claims she don't believe She prays to God each night to come and help but Carol's catastrophe Is all she ever thought it'd be Carol's catastrophe And all the things in life she needs Carol's catastrophe There's so much more in life for me Carol's catastrophe Is all about the things she needs Everything she feared it'd be There's so much more in life for me

How long will she deny me How long will she refuse me I wonder oh I wonder What she did today I want her Oh I want her Does she feel the same? How soon will she need me How soon will she reveal to me How she feels for me I wonder oh I wonder What she did today I want her oh I want her Does she feel the same She gets me higher Ooo she gets me higher She gets me higher yeah How long will she refuse me

I never saw you hang with anybody You're dying wish is that you were somebody I looked you up and man you aint nobody You're nobody trying to be someone I read your script and it’s about nobody You hang around and try to be somebody I heard your name and heard you were nobody You’re nobody trying to be someone Hey hey hey Nobody’s listening to you You think you're cool but you're the only body Who thinks your cool cause man you aint nobody You say you're rich but you can take your money You’re nobody trying to be someone Just look around you'll see you are nobody Or count your friends you won't find anybody I'm sorry man but you aint got nobody You're nobody trying to be someone

Jet Lag 02:26
I can't believe what you said to me I better believe it cause it's a fact Taking the pleasure out of everything how can you say I have no problem with that Problem with that I got a problem with that Problem with that And when you're on your own It's not living, it's not living anymore And when you move your feet You're just leaving, you're just leaving it up to me You say the same things most every day listening to you only makes me insane Saving your sun for a rainy day It’s only fun if we make it that way I think you're insane Hey hey hey You’re insane
