Sabbath Day
03:31
|

|
We could tell you where to go
Where the big kahuna slams
We go every single day
Between here and the Neverlands
When the bells call them to church
This way to the private cove
Island singing hallelujah
Surfing goes against the code
Feels so good to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm saying it feels so good to surf on a sabbath day)
Must be right to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm thinking it must be right to surf on a sabbath day)
Try to keep this on the low
If you want to keep it going
Sabbath is about the flow
Rising up from undertowing
Will you meet us at the beach
Even though it could spell curtains
It's forbidden to go swim
On a Sunday afternoon
Feels so good to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm saying it feels so good to surf on a sabbath day)
Must be right to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm thinking it must be right to surf on a sabbath day)
Feels so good to surf on a Sunday
Don't mean to disrespect anybody
Must me right to surf on a Sabbath day
Lost boys chasing after Peter
Pirates always chasing lost boys
Red skins always chase the pirates
Interesting how things all go around
Out here there's a natural order
Even though we're not quite there yet
Because everything moves in time
Surfing could be considered crime
Feels so good to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm saying it feels so good to surf on a sabbath day)
Must be right to surf on a sabbath day
(All I'm thinking it must be right to surf on a sabbath day)
Feels so good to surf on a Sunday
Don't mean to disrespect anybody
Must me right to surf on a Sabbath day

'The Real Thing' by Kai Lavatai
Oh oh you're so unusual
Like a sunny day in Santa Cruz
All at once I know the real thing
Nothing else compares to being here with you darling
Oh oh you're so perfect
I can't believe you're talking with me
Dear God, grant me the strength to
Hold on for the The Real Thing
Hold on for The Real Thing
Gotta hold on for The Real Thing...
Oh oh you're so incredible
I never met nobody like you
Each day I jump to my fee to sing
Praises to The Real Thing
Praises to The Real Thing
I sing praises to The Real Thing...
Hold on for the Real Thing
I gotta hold on for The Real Thing...
You know The Real Thing when you taste it
When it goes down you don't want anything to chase it
You know The Real Thing when you feel it
You're not gonna let nobody steal it
Let's keep this one hundred
You got me feeling something
Tender and sweet
I know this is The Real Thing

I know where to look
For the button I like to push
Such a special place
Keep me guessing. Please don't tell me
Smooth like an R. Kelly jam
I think you know just what it is
Two-step with me for a minute
Two-step, two-step
With rockets blazing
I see the glimmer
You come right for me
No time to prepare
Oh what a surprise
I know it's OK
Because you love me
Always been that way
Intellectual conversation never helps
That I get turned on when you get
Passionate--
So passionate
Love when you get passionate
The riot raging
Way down in your gut
I love the fire
I love it so much
So let me see you burning
So let me see you
So let me feel the yearning
So let me feel you
Supernatural phenomena
always my pleasure to wind you up
You get so passionate
Passionate--
So passionate
You get so passionate
I'm gonna turn you on, wind you up
Push every button and fill your cup

Crêpes Suzette

You're the one who said
It all comes down to color and timing
You're the one who suggested
We all eat with our eyes while dining
So if you want to take the gold crown
Then you gotta sit and wait around
Ooh the taste so delicate
Never forget a classic
Crêpes Suzette
Never could forget my little
Crêpes Suzette
It comes down to quality
Not even philosophy
I'd say Ideology
But more like a feeling
It's not exactly emotional but physical
Pieces of heaven fall into reality
If you want an invitation to dine
Then you gotta prove you're really mine
Only if you make a promise to
Never forget a classic
Crêpes Suzette
Never could forget my little
Crêpes Suzette
You got the flavor that I've been craving

So Fine!
03:54
|
|||
|
So superstitious, so unbelievable
Like a charm around my neck asking what the heck
Down on my knees begging Jesus please
Let me catch a glimpse of that girl in her jeans
Skin-tight pencil-fit down her leg
Ankle boots, stiletto dagger-tip
Painted on long-sleeve turtle-neck
Serpentine gold chain and she's set
She's so fine-she's so fine
She leaps right off the page
Shes' all mine-she's all mine
She knows she captures my imagination
Girl you're delicious it's undeniable
All the dudes want to dig in-dig into your closet
Witchcraft fashion-how you put those outfits together
Witchcraft fashion-how you make those outfits
Those pants with those boots-girl you know that's rude
Witchcraft fashion-how you make those outfits
On your body looks like a million bucks
She's so fine-she's so fine
She leaps right off the page
Shes' all mine-she's all mine
She knows she captures my imagination
She's so fine-the star of my life
She's so fine in the back seat of my ride
She knows just what she's doing
She wears those things on purpose
She knows what she does
She knows what she wears

Tall Blondes

If you go with a tall tall blonde
Give her everything she wants
and you won't be sorry
When you go with a tall blonde girl
Better give her the world
and you wont be sorry
when you go with a blonde--
When you go with a tall blonde girl
You gotta know how to rap
When you go with a tall blonde thing
You gotta know those brands
When you go with a tall blonde fox
No dead giveaways, fam
When you go with a tall blonde hottie
All the sudden you gotta work on your body
So so so tall
So tall and so blonde
She comes to see me
Cause I got what she wants
Remain true to a style
She will strip you of your identity
She's got powers beyond what you can see
I advise you to be careful
Hitch your rig to something firm
If there's one thing you must learn
If you go with a tall, tall blonde
Better give her what she wants

I think it's cute
You like to talk
You like the freedom
Of expression
You know the game
You scream my name
Three in the morning
As if it matters
You got this fetish
I know ain't right
It's called control
You like it tight
Tell me what to say
and what to wear
How to stand up straight
And how to do my hair
Save yourself conversation
It would just be one-sided
She's so into herself
Into herself, into herself
She isn't buying
What you're selling
She's in control
Of a million pieces
She feels like superman
And it's okay
Because the help knows
Who wears the cape
Save yourself heroism
She can definitely save herself
She's so into herself
Into herself, into herself
KIM659B-3
Most peculiar model I've ever dated
KIM659B-3
Must be something written in her programming
KIM659B-3
Must be something in her code
KIM659B-3
That puts her in control
