Talk a wicked game but when it comes on down to play,
I seem to hold on to my own and it has always been that way.
You give a lash or two by tongue but it ain't quite the same,
'Cause you're the sweet little thing under my arm and no one knows your name.
But that's okay, (We'll make the finish line)
And anyway. (We're gonna finish fine)
Hey what you say? (This ought to blow my mind)
You're bad, bad, bad, baby, please. (Want you to stay with me)
I'm on my knees. (Want you to play with me)
Like birds and bees. (Get home and play with me)
I'll be a sad, sad sack, girl.
I'm not you and you're not me, and that's the way it'll always be.
From sea to every shining sea, I'm not you and you're not me.
Fa-na-na-na, Fa-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Ever since I was a little boy I've been out on my own.
Ever since you've been a little girl you've never been alone.
Don't try to look into my head and tell me how I feel.
Just give me space and find your place or find another deal.
'Cause I've been good. (I give you everything)
I've understood. (When you do anything)
Supplied the wood. (I'll make your choir sing)
You're bad, bad, bad, baby please. (Want you to play with me)
I'm on my knees. (Want you to stay with me)
Like birds and bees. (Get home and play with me).
I'll be a sad, sad sack, girl.
Repeat Chorus.
I'm not you and you're not me, 'cause you're the lock and I'm the key.
You're living in a fantasy, I'm not you and you're not me.
Fa-na-na-na, Fa-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
There's one more thing I have to say before I shut my mouth.
I'll take a trip around the world or send the whole thing south.
You've got the vibe, you've got the look, but do you got the brains?
Don't rock the boat when you can't swim and you never liked the rain.
Let It Go (Vie, Z'Nuff)
Well just remember he is the one that made you cry.
Being such a fine lady makes it so hard to live a lie.
But like a million-dollar habit, he did it all,
Now so do I just want to be the one who'll kiss your pretty face,
Oh, any chance I get, oh any time or place.
Ride, glide, let your body slide.
Let it in, let it out, let it go.
Remember something that breaks your heart, gets in your way.
Break off the line, baby, break out the line, babe, and celebrate.
'Cause as I feel us getting closer, now is the time,
Now don't you wait. Just want to be your man, oh, don't you hesitate.
Come take me by the hand, I'm wiping clean the slate.
Repeat Chorus.
Fun and sun have got you on the run,
Let it in, let it out, let it go.
You need a piece of mind, I need a piece of you.
Come let your love light shine, make it shine on me too.
As I feel us getting closer, now is the time.
I just want to be the one who'll kiss your pretty face,
Oh, any chance I get, oh any time or place.
Who's Got You Now (Vie, Z'Nuff)
He took no time, like he's supposed to now.
No time spent with the one he loved.
You lost your mind, you'd never scream or shout.
But now the pushes come to shove.
Eyes made of fire, heart of gold, he'll be so sorry.
Who's got you now? I do, I do.
Who's got you now? I do, I do.
I took my time, I played it so thought out.
He never knew just what he had.
I can see the light, it's getting closer now.
Someone is happy, someone's sad.
I'll make you feel like you should, he'll be so sorry.
Repeat Chorus.
Now.
Eyes made of fire, heart of gold, we'll be so happy.
Rainy Day (Vie, Z'Nuff)
Starin' window in his rocking chair. Calling to someone who isn't there.
He knows this when he calls but doesn't care. He's really not aware. Uh-huh.
He wants to take a walk or take a ride. Hear the sounds and feel the air outside,
But it seems his old, hard feet have lost their stride, but haven't lost their drive. Uh-huh.
Old man, young heart. It's a rainy day, it's a rainy day.
Old man, young heart. It's a rainy day, it's a rainy day.
His heart breaks as his thoughts go back in time. His kids were young, his lady by his side.
But time has passed him up but in his mind he still has to unwind. Uh-huh.
Repeat Chorus.
He hears the children playing in the street. It makes him feel run down and incomplete.
His family sets the grandkids at his feet. He knows he's lost the beat. Uh-huh.
Repeat Chorus.
Old man, young heart. It's a rainy day, it's a rainy day.
Old man, young mind. It's a rainy day, it's a rainy day.
Message Of Love (Vie, Z'Nuff)
I want and I crave what I love, I need a little message from above,
Could be a little easier now, I know we're gonna make it somehow.
And not before it all comes tumbling down, you feel it coming closer to your town.
Wheels are turning 'round and around, and that can be a frightening sound.
You know we've gotta have love, be caring.
Stop fighting, start sharing,
And carry the message of love.
It's so wonderfully good to see you, also perfectly understood,
You'd be a soldier of life, and learn to use a song like a knife,
And if it comes calling don't be scared, it's only change of soul,
You're still aware. You're rolling down a beautiful stream.
I wish that you could see what I mean.
Repeat Chorus.
Help one another. Your sister, your brother,
And carry the message of love.
Of love, carry the message of love.
Happy Holiday (Vie, Z'Nuff)
In Wonderland the snow is on the ground. The happiness, you hear it all around.
Santa Claus and mistletoe and old Jack Frost, yeah don't you know?
That little boys and little girls, they love to play,
With little toys and little twirls of yesterday.
They sing the joys onto the world,
I'd like to say, have a happy holiday.
Even there are smiles among the poor. They don't have much but they have love for sure.
Helping hands to get those through, who have no one, nothing to do.
Repeat Chorus.
Ding-dong, hear the bells they ring.
Ding-dong, hear the caroler's sing.
Stockings hung and filled with everything.
When the emptiness to you down. All alone you walk the lonely ground.
Just think about the ones you love and take the blows and rise above.
Make Believe (Vie, Z"Nuff)
I know I'm not in your heart, our thing together's all wiped out now.
I've seen it all fall apart, now everything is filled with doubt, now.
Before you go on your way, there's something I'd like to say.
Baby could we make believe,
That I'm still your man for the night, if you care for the night?
Baby could we make believe,
That we're in love once again 'cause I'm needing a friend?
Make believe.
We were lovers for oh so long, but time just wasn't good, it wasn't.
I don't know where I belong, don't even know just where or what, yeah.
But if I've gotta set you free, would you do one thing for me, now?
Repeat Chorus.
Tomorrow you're on your own, tonight I can't be alone.
So Long (Vie, Z'Nuff)
We've been together for such a long time. We said we'd never let it unwind.
But you've been breaking all the rules now, and I've been faking, like I'm some fool now.
This ain't no home here, not it should be. I feel alone here, not like I could be.
So long. I know I'm leaving you, the feeling's kind of through babe.
So long. Do you think that I'd forget everything you do, babe?
So long. So long.
So many late nights I've waited for you, until the daylights, you're such a whore, you,
You left me three times and all for others. Come back with sweet lines, I hope your mother's
Proud of her little girl who left her family, to start her own world, I hope you're happy.
Repeat Chorus.
We've tried and you've lied and denied and I've cried for so long.
If you don't love me why do you stay here? You feel above me in every way, dear.
So down below you. I'll take my chances, I'll find a love true, find what romance is.
You used to move me, I have to say now , but you don't suit me in anyway now.
Long Enough For Me (Vie, Z'Nuff)
I never knew just what to do if things went right.
So hard to tell just what the proper move would be.
I just can't wait 'til our next date to get inside ya.
It's the same old song, tomorrow's long enough for me.
When all our love gets bottled up, it overflows,
And let me say it's not a pretty sight to see,
And overflow it will real soon, I hope it shows ya,
It's the same old song, tomorrow's long enough for me.
Every night I've been feeling like I have been waiting in line, waiting in line.
Why can't you see what it's doing to me? All this taking your time.
High, when the sun comes up would be unreal,
And holding you close in my arms would be the key.
Until the day, that I can say that I can feel ya,
It's the same old song, tomorrow's long enough for me.
Vacant Love (Vie, Z'Nuff)
She told me she was not some little girl so I decided I would take her home,
And after we had played around the world, I never had to call her on the phone,
And so I get to hang out with my friends and wait until the weekdays ever end,
We'll be…
Making love, a vacant love,
'Cause my hands and my eyes can't catch enough.
Making love, a vacant love.
A hungry little heart can mess you up, can bring you all the way down to your knees.
Vacating from your mind when you get stuck and maybe leave you begging, "Baby please,"
And so I get to wind up with my friends and wait until the weekdays ever end,
We'll be…
Repeat Chorus.
When everything has all been said and done there's nothing left to say that wasn't true.
I realize you're probably not the one and never have the chance to make me blue.
When everybody wants to mess around and everyone goes home and we go down,
We'll be…
Kitty (Vie, Z'Nuff)
Oh yeah. All right.
I just can't kiss her after all she's done but the guys all dig her so I lead her on.
If I could just not call her 'til my hair was long I'd be a knocked out rocker and I'd prove her wrong.
She'd make it so damn easy just to leave her home after 15 minutes on the telephone.
You know she don't try talkin', she just piss and moan,
See the way it's all goin', glad to be alone.
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
There's a new kid in town, (K-K-K-Kitty)
And he's just trying to look pretty, why are you putting him down?
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
We need a whole lot more. (K-K-K-Kitty)
What we got is a pity, what we're doin' is a ch-ch-ch ore-ore-ore.
The cops are driving by here every night, you know the neighbors don't like it and you know they're right.
If I don't come home I just expect a fight. See you talks real heavy but your words are light.
You know you're looking much better than you have in years.
You've done a good job covering up all your fears,
And with your face all smiles when you're out for beers.
Hope it gets more for ya than it got you here.
Repeat Chorus.
You came into my apartment, took all my records. I gave you love and a chance for romance.
You danced all over my face and stole my mattress. You don't even deserve the dirt you sleep on!
You're looking much better than you have in years.
You've done a good job covering up all your fears,
And with your face all smiles when you're out for beers.
Hope it gets more for ya than it got you here.
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
There's a new kid in town, (K-K-K-Kitty)
And he's just trying to look pretty, why are you putting him down?
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
We need a whole lot more. (K-K-K-Kitty)
What we got's real shitty, and what we're doin' is, and what were doin' is…
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
You do me wrong babe, and what we're doin' is…
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
K-K-K-Kitty, (K-K-K-Kitty)
You do me wrong baby, and what we're doin' is a ch-ch-ch ore-ore-ore.
Oh yeah, all right.
Oh yeah, all right.
Turn it on, yeah turn it up, yeah here he comes again,
Keep collecting all your pin-up magazines.
They've just created your new man of men,
He's the hot new favorite flavor on the scene.
It's survival of the billboard of the in thing,
Keep the title #1 on MTV.
Video Man, can't stop movin,
Video Man, can't stop groovin.
Video Man, keep me singing,
Video Man, keep me swinging.
Video Man, every station,
Video Man, 'cross the nation.
Girls all hangin' on him, picks a lucky one,
In fact he's had more than the normal guy has seen.
Rollin' round the world, man he's having fun,
What an entertaining in demand machine!
Here's what you've presented as your new desired one,
It's what all the guys will soon all try to be.
