Interesting...

Ouch!

Looky, looky

Like a bad politician, U walked into the room
Interesting...
U checkin' everybody out, I knew U'd get 2 me soon

Your cologne smelled like a garden in the middle of Rome... ouch!
Interesting...
U offered me your body if I'd take U home
(Home, take me home)

CHORUS:
The way U walk, the way U talk and think and feel
Intrigues me like a thief 2 money, money
If I'm not dreaming, this is interesting

And when we first kissed
(Cool blue flashes)
And honey, your hands, they're like a feather whip
(Please! 4 more lashes)

CHORUS

4 curiosity's sake I asked U 2 dance
Your body moved like the sound of a bass
Interesting...

Acoustically electric, your biceps symmetric
Yeah babe, I like your lines ... ouch!
Interesting - Like a bad politician, U walked into the room
But it's alright cuz (I love U)

CHORUS

Ouch! Ouch!
Baby, oh (Interesting)
Say baby, what's your number? Where U live?
Come on over here, let's make a deal

It's so interesting 2 me, yes it is
Sho'nuff is interesting
I mean, U know I'm not the type
That just speak out on ah.. an issue like this (Interesting)
But when U walked in that door
U know U put this on my mind (Interesting)
And I just couldn't keep it 2 myself {fade out}
Had 2 pinch myself just 2 see if I was dreamin'

20th Century Express

Screams cry out in the dead of night
From the crack house across the street
U're comin' down with a sudden migraine
And here it is almost 3
Next door they're fightin' again
Somebody's done somebody wrong
And some freak keeps calling up
Want a quickie on the telephone

U try and try 2 close your eyes at night
But all U do is toss and turn until broad daylight

CHORUS:
Welcome aboard the 20th Century Express
Welcome aboard the 20th Century Express

Fast food chains keep popping up
Everybody's eatin' on the run
Hamburgers, French fries, hurry please
But hold the indigestion
The rush hour traffic slows U down
As U race against the clock
But fasten your seatbelts everyone
There are no intermediate stops

U try and try 2 keep pace with the times
U try and get one step ahead, but U fall 2 steps behind

CHORUS

Ooh yeah, all day, on rey, all say, I say, he say, OK, OK {x4}

U try and try 2 close your eyes at night
But all U do is toss and turn until broad daylight

CHORUS {x2}

Running 2 the crack house
People gettin' sprung out
Welcome aboard
(Welcome, welcome aboard the 20th Century Express)

Livin' in the fast lane
2 much cocaine
Welcome aboard
(Welcome, welcome aboard the 20th Century Express)

The world keep revolvin'
And ain't nobody stoppin'
Welcome, oh yes
(Welcome, welcome aboard the 20th Century Express)

Welcome, welcome
Welcome aboard the 20th Century Express

We're livin' 2 fast, y'all
Babies makin' babies, hear?
Oh, welcome the 20th Century Express

Come Home

How did it come 2 this?
U livin' in your world and me dyin' in mine
Lord knows I don't deserve this
I never gave U any reason 2 treat me unkind
Each day that goes by I grow lonelier
Sadder than the day before
I'd give anything just 2 hold U in my arms
Or see U standin' at my door

Cuz darlin', U mean more than words could explain
Ooh darlin', the pain, it cuts so deep

And it's only a matter of time
Before I go right out of my mind
I don't care who was wrong
I only know that when U're gone
I think about U every day
Why'd U have 2 go away and leave me all alone?
Won't U please come home, baby?
(Baby, won't U please come home? I don't wanna be alone)
Come home
(Baby, won't U please come home? I don't wanna be alone)

Why did we ever part?
U were my lover and I was your friend
How did this argument start?
Couldn't we just kiss and start over again?
Whoever said all good things soon come 2 an end
Never had anybody like U
There's a pounding in the pit of my heart
Whenever I think of what we used 2 do
(Ooh, the things we use 2 do)

Cuz darlin', U mean more than words could explain
Darlin', darlin', the pain cut so deep

And it's only a matter of time
'Fore I go right out of my mind
I don't care who was wrong
I only know that when U're gone
I think about U every day
Why'd U have 2 go away, leave me all alone?
Won't U please come home, baby?
(Baby, won't U please come home? I don't wanna be alone)
I can't take it no more
Come on, come on, come on, come on, baby

Looky here
I got somethin' I wanna say
U know I never treated U bad
U know I was the best U ever had
I know it's just a matter of time
'Fore I go right out of my mind

Ow!
Baby, help me
Oh baby

It's just a matter of time before I go right out of mind
I don't care who was wrong, baby
All I know, all I know is that when U're gone
I say when U're gone
I think about it every day any old kind of way
Why'd U leave me, why'd U leave me?
Why'd U go away?
Baby, baby, won't U come home?

(Baby, won't U please come home? I don't wanna be alone)
Come on, come on home
Help me – come on, come on home
(Baby, won't U please come home? I don't wanna be alone) {fade out}
Somebody help me
Come on, come on home

Train

I wanna talk 2 U 'bout this love affair
Is it really true that U don't care?
Seems like every day U grow farther away
Tell me what can I say 2 make U stay

Cuz if U really don't love me anymore (If U don't love me)
I just don't know what 2 say
There's a train that's leavin' in the morning (Train)
That will take U straight 2 Santa Fe (All the way) (Train)
If U feel this thing we got just can't go on (Train)
Then I won't stand in your way
I won't stand in your way
I won't stand in your way, no, no

I'm so in love with U, U're all I wanna be
Whenever U go away, babe, U take a part of me (Oh, yes U do)
A man's gotta do what he gotta do
But remember, babe, wherever U go, I'm with U
Cuz I need ya

CHORUS:
If U really don't love me anymore (If U don't love me)
I just don't know what 2 say
There's a train that's leavin' in the mornin' (Train)

The Old Songs

CHORUS:
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used 2 be

It was all so simple then
Slow dancing there in the den
2 the tune "Blowing In The Wind"
Scanning through The Hit Parade
Hanging out at the record shop
Learning how 2 do the cha-cha-cha
Back when Sam Cooke was hot
Twisting the night away (away)

CHORUS

Oh, I wish they'd play "My Girl"
"Twist And Shout" and "The Duke Of Earl"
James Brown: "It's A Man's World"
"Love Makes The World Go Round"
Oh, I wanna hear "Yesterday"
"Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay"
The old songs have a special place
Oh, how sweet the sound

CHORUS

Mm hmm

If I could catch a ride, I'd go back in time
2 that very first day when I realized that U were mine
The old songs have a way of bringing back 2 mind
The love we shared, the joys and smiles we left behind
So…

CHORUS {x2} {fade out}

I Guess I'm Crazy

I can see U without even looking
I can hear U and U don't have 2 make a sound
I can feel U without even touching
I am near U even when U're not around

CHORUS:
I guess I'm crazy, crazy 'bout U, boy
I guess I'm crazy, crazy 'bout U, boy
Guess I'm crazy, yeah, yeah

On a crowded street there is no one
Only U and me, if only in my heart
This feeling can't be beat, loving U's so fun, so fun
A fire burns in me, I don't need a flame 2 start it

CHORUS

If I could somehow make U see
Everything U do 2 me
Maybe then U'd realize
U're the reason 4 this look in my eyes
Don't U wanna hold me?
Say U wanna hold me

I belong 2 U even though U don't want me
If I'm in love with U, it's plenty a reason 2 be alive
No one understands, they say that I'm foolish
They say I should let U go, but U, U are my destiny

CHORUS

Ooh, if somehow I could make U see
(Crazy, crazy about U, boy)
All the things U do 2 me
Maybe then U'd realize
(Crazy, crazy about U, boy)
That U're the reason that I'm alive

U can look in my eyes (Crazy)
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe U know
(Crazy, crazy about U, boy)
I'm crazy about U, boy
Just one look, just one look, baby
(Crazy, crazy about U, boy)
I guess I'm crazy (Crazy)
(Crazy) {x3}
Sugar, sugar, yeah, yeah, yeah

Time Waits For No One

U came 2 me
Said give U more time
Time 2 get yourself 2gether
Time 2 make up your mind
I want 4ever love
U want a one night fantasy
While I'm sittin' here waitin' on U
U know somebody somewhere's waitin' on me

Time waits 4 no one
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody
And time waits 4 no one
If U wait 2 long
U can turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone

(Time, time, time)

I just can't sit around
Watchin' my life pass me by
So if U're ever gonna make a change
Better be right now, right now, right now!

I don't know if anybody ever told U, boy
But impatience is my middle name (My middle name)
So if my good, good… good lovin' means anything 2 U, babe
U better stop runnin' your game

Time waits 4 no one (No one)
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody
Time waits 4 no one (No one)
If U wait 2 long
U turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone

U came 2 me
U said give U more time
But baby, baby, I could see through U
Even if I were deaf, dumb and blind

Time waits 4 no one (No one)
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody
(Time) Time waits 4 no one
So if U wait 2 long (2 long)
U turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone

(Time, time, time) Waits 4 no one
Don't wait 4 no one
Nobody, nobody
No, nobody

Time waits 4 no one
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody {fade out}
Time, time, time waits 4 no one
