One Nite Alone
In a pale blue spotlite a figure spins around a voice calls out 2 u, "Baby...do you like the sound?" The undulating acrobat ready 2 do ur bidding
says, "Come, U must let me dress u but 1st I must do a fitting... Do u like fast? Or do u like it slow?"
I know it's better if we make it up as we go... and oh, by the way tell me now what's ur
name? I'll let it sweeten my tongue just once and never speak it again since this is our little secret Untarnished memory in a pale blue spotlite Let me hear u
scream, if u're ready 4... One nite alone... with me
U're Gonna C Me
I know that I'm not gonna sleep 2nite Cuz u're not by my side and that ain't right I thought that we bought this bed 4
two, but what good is it if I'm not with u
Gimme a page on my 2-way I'll hit u back with no delay When u hear all
eye've got 2 say U're gonna c me Whether in person or the phone I've got 2 get u all alone and when eye do baby it's on U're gonna c
me...U're gonna c me
There's never a minute that I find that u
don't ever cross my mind if u could just hold me tight u'd c... there's nothing harder 4 u than me
Gimme a page on my 2-way I'll hit u back with no delay When u hear all
eye've got 2 say U're gonna c me Whether in person or the phone I've got 2 get u all alone and when eye do baby it's on U're gonna c
me...U're gonna c me
Gimme a page on my 2-way I'll hit u back with no delay
U're the reason I took a rope and lassoed the moon 2 prove that when it comes 2 u there's nothing I
won't do... I'd stare in2 the sun if u would be mine It's not so great a leap since 2 all others I am blind
I know that
I'm not gon' sleep 2nite
Here On Earth
Imagine a young woman running 4 her very life Tryin' 2 get away from the one who loves her this young woman ur wife In2 an alley cold and rainy October just b4
dawn... Leaping atop a mountain of bricks her clothes now covered with
sick, The danger hardly gone She turns and curses the day she met u and that she wishes she was never
born... Say it's just a dream... U open up ur eyes and come 2 realize u simply imagined this So u lean over and give her a kiss Here on
earth, here on earth, with u it's not so bad Here on earth, here on earth eye
don't feel so sad Stay right here Here on earth
A Case Of U
I am a lonely painter I live in a box of paints I used 2 be frightened by the devil and drawn 2 those who
weren't afraid Remember when u told me that love was touching souls? Well, surely u touched mine Part of u pours out of me from time 2 time in these lines U're in my blood like holy
wine...u're so bitter and so sweet I could drink a case of you darling and still b on my
feet...still be on my feet
Have A Heart
I heard the news from a friend of mine and urs She said the smell of missing me was coming from ur
pours! She said I broke ur heart so bad I didn't deserve u back But
don't u have 2 have a heart 1st b4 u get it broken? Don't u have 2 wanna tell the truth b4 a word is
spoken? So what about the heartbreak? Everybody's had one c The fault of mine goes from LA 2 the streets of NYC but I
ain't cryin' about payments overdue I got some milk but no drop is spilled over things u put me through Can't u c
we're all just tryin'... Tryin' 2 get this hustle on... Lookin' 4 the righteous 2 buy in... til we right everyone of the wrongs So what about the
heartbreak? Everybody's had one c... Have a heart
Objects In The Mirror
That's my favorite time with u just after we make a movie, the kind that requires the title "Parental
Advisory"
Let's brush r teeth in the same sink, don't worry girl it's cool We can pose in the mirror I'm
diggin' u diggin' on me We're hooked up now, eye can try her I can put my load in the dryer So much we can share the same
height, weight, and body fluid
We're hooked up now, we can do it Been
waitin' baby... It's so hard 2 bear
the objects in the mirror r closer than they appear…
Avalanche
He was not or never had been in favor of setting r people free if it wasn't 4 the 13th Amendment we woulda been born in slavery He was not or never had been in favor of letting us vote so u c... Abraham Lincoln was a racist who said "U cannot escape from
history"
Like the snow comin' down the mountain that landed on Wounded Knee nobody wants 2 take the weight - the responsibility
Hear the joyous sound of freedom The Harlem Renaissance Hear Duke Ellington and his band kick another jungle jam Ooh, do u wanna dance? Who's that lurking in the
shadows? Mr. John Hammond with his pen in hand... sayin' "Sign ur kingdom over 2 me and b known throughout the
land!" But, u ain't got no money, U ain't got no cash So u sign yo name and he claims innocence just like every snowflake in an
avalanche...
Like the snow comin' down the mountain that landed on Wounded Knee nobody wants 2 take the weight - the responsibility
Pearls B4 The Swine
If I leave my front door open would u come and visit me? Just 2 slander my name
hopin' that I would pack my bags and leave... If I did would u remember 2 feed the dove and clean the
cage? And never count in front of the children lest they die of old age
I
don't really know y we have 2 go r separate ways Whether or not we grow after the seeds r sown Only time can
say...
Can I offer u baklava or a bagel with cream cheese? Will we say grace 2 r father holding hands down on r
knees? R we better off just fighting? U on ur side, me on mine R the words that eye keep
writing... only pearls b4 the swine?
What makes men claim that
u're a friend when u're not at all? They knock u down and then, they lift u up
again, just 2 c u fall... But like a bird I'll keep on singing... a song that never leaves ur mind If nothing else
u've taught me one thing... "Never cast ur pearls b4 the swine"
Young and Beautiful
U're so young and beautiful U're so full of life- everybody knows That's y they try 2 take advantage of u... but u
don't have 2 do what the other ones do U're so cool- the world at ur
feet, they only want ur virginity Keep ur clothes on and ur chastity until u find the one that's worth it baby
So young and beautiful So young and beautiful
U're so fine my heart's just pounding If I had the chance 2 lay u down, I'd probably take a rain check
'til next summer cuz I don't wanna b like all ur other lovers So young and beautiful I'm
hippin' u 2 the game darlin' So that u'll always remain young and beautiful
