In your gracious name {x2}Dear Glory, in your gracious name
Forgive those who do not know
This precious joy so beautiful
That only Love could ever show
All that ever was before and all that ever will be
Lives because of your Love, that one day we'll all be free

Forgive those who without justification inflict upon us pain
We who know a thousand fold the sins of casting stones
Mercy upon us that we might leave the stone alone

Hold me now, 4 ever I will be
In your gracious name

Listen 2 the rhythm of your heartListen, listen
Yeah, yeah yeah
Listen 2 the rhythm of your heart {x2}
Every city's got one, a kid that don't fit in
Nobody'll listen 2 a rebel without a friend
When the world misunderstands U, instead of sayin' 10-4
The rhythm of your heart is saying don't give up before U...
CHORUS:
Shine like the sun, dance like the rain
Sing like an angel, know no shame
Try 2 stay happy on the darkest day
The rhythm of your heart is saying "Keep on!"
Evil thoughts run crazy when joy is not around
How can U be happy when U're feelin' down?
U got 2 find out who U are, U gotta be able 2 say
Your own name with power and pride, then U can win at any game
U got 2...
CHORUS
Listen 2 the rhythm of your heart {x2}
Listen 2 the rhythm {x2} (Listen 2 the rhythm)
Listen 2 the rhythm of your heart
Maybe one day I'll be one of the famous
Then maybe on that day I'll be one of the crowd
But until then I'll just keep on
Dancin' 2 the rhythm of my heart, I believe in me
Therefore I'm p-r-o-u-d, proud!
CHORUS (Party! {x6})
Lookin' 4 the sky y'all (Shine, shine)
That's us, we can
Venga conmigo mi gente {Come with me my people}
(Yes, we can)
Vamos a reirnos para el amor {Let's laugh 4 love}
El poder del amor {The power of love}
Y la diversion esta aqui ahora {And joy is here now}
Si vienen para gozar {If U come 2 enjoy}
Pues dejenme oirles gritar! {Then let me hear U scream!}
Keep on, keep on, keep on y'all
Listen, listen
Listen 2 the rhythm of your heart

Ain't no place like U {x2}
I told all my friends don't be callin' me
Cuz there ain't nothin' that I wanna see
I called my job and quit workin' overtime
Cuz I've got somethin' that's been on my mind
CHORUS:
Cuz baby it's true, ain't no place like U
Cuz baby it's true, ain't no place like U
Don't want distraction so I'm puttin' on my machine
"Wrong number" - simple and clean
Go 2 my closet, pull out the dress
The one that makes U wanna lay your head upon my chest
CHORUS
Ain't no place, ain't no place {x2}
I've put this feelin' on hold 4 much 2 long
And now this feelin', it done got 2 strong
I need the body that makes it disappear
I need the body and I need it right here
It's true, ain't no place like U
Cuz baby it's true, oh, ain't no place like U
Send me 2 Marbella, London, Paris 2
Send me all around the world and when I'm through
I ain't seein' nothin' cuz there ain't no place like U
I told all my friends don't be callin' me
Cuz there ain't nothin' that I wanna see
I ain't seein' nothin' cuz there ain't no place like U
Ain't no place like U
Cuz baby it's true, ain't no place like U

"Alright, this is a.. this is an oldie" {Back To The Future sample}
Brick (Boom! Say it) house (Hell yes)
She's mighty Mayte, lettin' it all hang out
She's a brick (Boom! Think I ain't?) house (Hell yes)
That lady's stacked, that's a fact, ain't holdin' nothin' back
The clothes I wear, my sexy ways

Sho'nuff can knock a strong man 2 his knees

How can I lose with the stuff I use?
36-24-36, oh, what a winning hand!
CHORUS
La la la la la
("I need U 2 tell me") {Mavis Staples sample}
I'm well put 2gether, everybody knows
But that ain't all this house of brick has got 2 show
Every curly q I got is holdin' a thought
Thinkin' about some of this and that's why I never get caught
Strokin' many brothas just 2 get the bank
"Yeah, U look good keepin' gas in my tank"
And if they wanna play me like a puppet 4 the mack
While I'm gettin' paid, y'all can step the fuck back!
Brick (Boom! Say it) house (Hell yes)
She's mighty Mayte, lettin' it all hang out

Everyday I used 2 watch U pass my house on the way 2 school
My heart skipped 4 beats checking out the way your body moved
No one can walk the way U do, it's so cool (So cool)
Imagine how I felt when I saw my best friend with her arm around U
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
I went 2 a movie show, the only place that I could go away from U
I seem 2 see your face in every part of my life, no matter what I
do
But there U were 4 everyone 2 see, kissing like fools
I covered my face and pretended that I didn't know what I knew
That love's no fun when the one U love don't love U, oh
I go 2 bed early every night so I can dream
Of another space and another time when U belonged 2 me
And in my dreams U talk 2 me whispering oh so sweet (So sweet)
U promised that if I'm always there 4 U, U'll be there 4 me
(With U, with U)
And then I wake and say that love's no fun without U (No it ain't, no no)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
(I don't wanna be without love)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
(Do U hear me, do U hear me?)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U, oh

Look girl, what did I tell U?
No mira, let me tell U something, OK {No look, ...}
U cannot get something 4 nothing
U've been lookin' 4 him, U've been takin' good care of him
Pero oyes, he's never there 4 U so U know? {But listen, ...}
Mira, yo no tengo tiempo {Look, I have no time}
Because look, U gotta think of what U want girlfriend
U gotta remember who U are and where U came from
Baby don't, baby don't, baby don't, baby don't really care
Baby don't, baby don't, baby don't, baby don't really care
He's got the flava, but let me tell U something
He ain't no 4ever fella
So I hear U got another lover, that's what people say
U and me like sister/brother, that was yesterday
I only tried 2 teach U one word, that was how 2 stay
But U dogged me anyway (What did I tell U?)
CHORUS:
Baby don't, baby don't, baby don't, baby don't really care
U were bad, but hey
Baby don't, baby don't, baby don't, baby don't really care
Have dog will stray
It ain't all that
So I guess it really made U happy 2 do me like U did
Weren't U gonna ever tell me or just play me stupid?
What would U do if me and U would've had a kid?
I guess U're sorry now (What did I tell U?)
CHORUS
It ain't all that, it ain't all that girl
U gotta think about yourself
U gotta think about what U wanna do with your furture
I don't wanna lose U cuz of something I heard
But every other day I wanna kick your butt 2 the curb
I found a phone number in your pocket, called up the nerd
I said "Smack, smack if I ever see U - word!"
When U try 2 lie with those puppy eyes
I just wanna die cuz U just can't be trusted
How U try and try, nothing will I buy
Still U sell and I only get disgusted
Put it in the bank boy, she don't care!
Baby don't
What did I tell U?
So I don't know what U did 2 make me chase U like I do
Whatever it is U better keep doing it or I'll catch up with U
4 all U know I just might have a couple of secrets, ooh!
Maybe just 1 or 2
CHORUS
Mayte's in the house {x2}
Gloria Estefan
Mayte's in the house
Yo no se que esta pasando con esta gente
{I don't know what's happening with these people}
Estos muchachos, siempre como un perro
{These guys always like a dog}
Tu les das todo tu amor y todo y te tratan mal
{U give them all your love and they treat U bad}
Como yo dije, siempre un perro
{Like I said, always a dog}
New Power Generation, where are they now? (Hey)
Baby don't, baby don't (Baby don't really care)
(New Power Generation, where are they now?)
Oh yes, baby don't, baby don't (Baby don't really care)
U don't need 2 be caring honey, uh uh
U do not need 2 be caring about what he's doin' or where he's doin'
it
Pero, let me tell U something (Baby don't, baby don't) {But, ...}
U are number one in your life
I know U like 2 do, I know U like 2 do (Baby don't really care)
But U just gotta move on girlfriend
U gotta know when 2 say no
Tu sabes? {U know?}
(Hell yeah)

Last night baby, I had a dreamThat I fell asleep with all my clothes on and U tried 2 make love 2 me
I felt U tuggin' (tuggin') on my blouse and instead of slowin' U down
I put your hand inside and started movin' it all around
If I were able I'd make U wait awhile
But the card's on the table so I might as well show U my style
Are U ready baby? (Ooh)
CHORUS:
I'm the kind that takes her time
It's mo' better when it's wetter
What's the rush 4 the gush?
So much nicer when it's smooth
Do it slow, cuz U know
It's mo' better when it's wetter
This is mine, take your time
And I'll give it all 2 U
(It's mo' better when it's wetter)
I don't wanna wake up, this dream is 2 good 2 be true
Feels like I got my arms, (and) hips and thighs all around U
If real love could be like this baby, I'd give it 2 U night and day
But it seems like a man's always in a hurry when nanny ain't gonna
run away (No way)
If I were able I'd make U wait, make U wait awhile (Just a little
bit)
But the card's on the table so I might as well show U my style
Show U my style (Ooh)
CHORUS
Baby, yeah
Can U blame me 4 the time I take
When it's memorable love I wanna make?
U can't tame me if I wanna go wild
If U can't take a minute 2 learn my style
I'm sayin' U gotta learn my style, baby
I like 2 take my time
U with that?
Alright, check it out
U can pin me on the boards
I'm the kind that takes her time
It's mo' better when it's wetter
What's the rush 4 the gush?
So much nicer when it's smooth
Do it slow cuz U know (Do it slow, don't U know?)
It's mo' better when it's wetter (It's mo' better when it's wetter)
This is mine, take your time (Take your time)
And I'll give it all 2 U, U, U

{English version above}
Que raro que me llamas
Estuve al lado del telefono
Buscando un remedio
Para toda mi miseria
Lo siento por lo que dije
No creo que la primera cita sea en la cama
Yo quiero que tu seas mio
Sabes que estoy buscando alguien que me ame
Por mas de una noche de amor
CHORUS:
Si te amo esta noche (If I love U 2night)
Jurame que te quedaras hasta la manana
(Baby, can U stay until the morning light?)
Hablame, dime una cosa
Dime que me abrazaras (Hold me)
Si te amo esta noche
Te deseo, es la verdad
Lo note cuando me miraste
No es una cosa de orgullo (No no)
Es cuando venga manana te quiero aqui conmigo
CHORUS
No me importa la pureza del que yo busco
(I am looking 4 a boy)
Solamente seguro
(Sho'nuff secure)
Si quieres que te ame soy el remedio
(I am the remedy, the remedy)
Pero nene dime esto, que me vas a hacer a mi?
(What U gonna do, what U gonna do 4 me?)
Si te amo esta noche
Jurame que te quedaras hasta la manana
(Say that U'll stay until the morning light)
Hablame, dime una cosa
Dime que me abrazaras (Hold me, hold me)
Yo te cocino, te guio al trabajo
Te cuidare
Jurame que te quedaras hasta la manana
Si te amo esta noche (If I love U 2night)
Te quiero dar mi amor
Pero me tienes que jurar (If I love U 2night)
Que me amaras para siempre (If I love U 2night)
Asi mismo

The Most Beautiful Boy In The World
Could U be the most beautiful boy in the world?It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl
When the day turns into the last day of all time
I can say I hope U are in these arms of mine, of mine
And when the night falls before that day I will cry
I will cry tears of joy cuz after U all one can do is die, die
Could U be the most beautiful boy in the world?
Could U be?
It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl
How can I get through days when I can't get through hours?
I can try but when I do I see U and I'm devoured
Who'd allow, who'd allow a face 2 be soft as a flower?
I can bow and feel proud in the light of this power
Could U be the most beautiful boy in the world? (Could U be?)
Could U be?
It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl
And if the stars ever fell one by one from the sky
I know Mars could not be 2 far behind
Cuz baby, this kind of beauty has got no reason 2 ever be shy
Cuz honey, this kind of beauty is the kind that comes from inside
Could U be (Could U be?) the most beautiful boy in the world?
So beautiful, beautiful
It's plain 2 see (Plain 2 see) U're the reason that God made a girl
Could U be the most beautiful boy in the world?
U must be beautiful

So beautiful
If the stars ever fell one by one from the sky
(Could U be the most beautiful boy in the world?)
I know Mars could not be 2 far behind
