Moving Fast 4 U

Baby, you can choose,
but will you ever be happy?
I can’t find the breaks, oh ya.
You can’t slow me down.
We gonna make it funky baby.
So so far.
I can’t find the breaks.
You can’t slow me down
Ya, that's right
Can you see me.
‘Cause I feel so far away.
I can't find the breaks.
Much farther than I was yesterday.
You can't slow me down.
I’m feeling way better in every way.
Way, way better.
But baby baby, that’s how I play.
Hey!, Say it again
I’m moving fast 4 U,
And I can’t slow down, no.
I’m moving fast 4 U,
I can’t find the breaks.
I’m moving fast 4 U,
And I can’t slow down.
I’m moving fast 4 U,
On the 2 and 4 get down
If you know what I’m talking about,
Let me hear you shout! Woo!
Moving fast 4 U,
Feeling under pressure.
Traveling to the moon,
Never felt much better.
Baby, you can choose,
But will you ever be happy?
Moving fast 4 U,
Feeling under pressure.
Traveling to the moon,
Never felt much better.
Baby, you can choose,
But will you ever be happy?
Ya that's right
Little to nothing’s what I got for feelings
When it comes to people who will bring me down.
I’m doing me and tryin’ to get to where I’m supposed to be.
In other words, I bring the soulful sound.
Now listen G – there ain’t no guarantees in life.
You gotta bring it when you got, and fake it when you want it.
There ain’t no other way.
If Dudley Donald wants to make it through the bottle neck,
And shake it for the world to see,
You best believe I’m worried about
The state our funky democracy.
Said the bottle to the rocket,
If you put it in your pocket,
It's a light-bulb in a socket,
Moving faster to unlock it.
Said the bottle to the rocket.
If you know,
If you know what I’m talking about,
If you know,
If you know what I’m talking about,
Let me hear you shout! Woo!
I’m moving, I’m groovin’.
I said, I’m moving, I’m groovin’.
On the 2 and 4,
Hit me! On the one!
Moving fast 4 U,
Feeling under pressure.
Traveling to the moon,
Never felt much better.
Baby, you can choose,
But will you ever be happy?

Strawberry Ice Cream

It’s so refreshing to have you around,
I just love it when you lay it down,
‘Cause your style is tight,
Make a brother run a red light,
You know he can’t help but stare,
At those long legs and strawberry hair.
It’s on a hot summer’s day
That I think you look your best,
Getting so sweaty, you got to undress.
And I must confess,
You make it all worthwhile.
Just being around you makes me smile.
I just wanna spoon with you.
In the afternoon, with you,
Baby you’re so fine.
I’d never take you for granted.
I see it as a sign,
To savour every minute.
‘Cause out of 31 flavours,
You'll always be my favourite.
You can make mine a double scoop.
Strawberry, strawberry
There’s just something about you,
I just don’t know why.
Out of all the options,
I choose you every single time.
Let me taste you
While you’re playing in my dreams.
So cool, So sweet.
My little strawberry ice cream
You taste so sweet,
While you’re melting in the heat.
So cool, so sweet.
My little strawberry ice cream
I just wanna take you home and keep you all to myself
So Cool, So Sweet
My little strawberry ice cream
There’s nothing better than when you make me scream!
I don’t care if it’s a spoon or a cone,
As long as I can get you alone.
Strawberry Ice cream.
Swimming in my dreams.
Oh baby, I can’t resist.
I got you on my A-List.
Pick you up around ten, Uber black car
And then,
We can see some freaks at the club, maybe get some grub.
Who knows where it might go.
Like whoa! You’re head to toe
A smoke show.
Loop me into whatever future plans you’re making.
I ain’t fakin’
And I ain’t breakin’ no hearts.
Especially not yours,
‘cause you’re off the charts.
So make mine a double scoop,
And keep me in the loop.

Dirty Compliments

Hey baby boo,
You know that every time we get together, It feels kinda rude.
You get your point across with no hint of subtly, so I know that you’re down for some freaky activity.
Hey, is it true,
You might not know who you’re talking to.
It’s shocking to see such a pretty little lady be so mean.
But baby, if you keep it up, that’s just alright with me.
When you act so nasty,
There’s only one thing to do.
I wanna take a shower with you.
You give me dirty compliments.
Some of the stuff you say is just crazy.

I think you better hush,
‘Cause you’re making me blush,
With those dirty compliments.

It’s not where you are
It’s where you’re at.
It’s not what you say
It’s how you act.
It’s all in my mind,
As a matter of fact.
I know I should go
But I keep on coming back.
I know I should pray,
But I’m busy today.
I know it’s a game
But I play it anyway.
We make up a truth
And then paraphrase.
Why you always so serious?
Let me hear you say,
Praying won’t bring the rain,
But we gonna dance to the music anyway.
Praying won’t Bring the rain,
Praying won’t bring the rain – heyy!
Praying won’t bring the rain,
But we gonna dance to the music anyway.
Praying won’t bring the rain,
But we gonna dance to the music anyway.

Hello my friend,
It’s nice to see you again.
Hello my world,
Shining through the window.
Here comes the sun,
Peeking through the clouds above.
Here comes my love,
And I feel much better again.
And it feels like, feels like 1969,
Feels like, 1969, all over again.
All over again. all over again.
Where have you been?
It’s nice to see you again
Where will we go?
I hope we just go with the flow
Here comes the light,
Making it feel alright
Here comes my life
And I feel like deja vu
And it feels like
Feels like 1969, feels like,
1969, all over again.
All over again. all over again.
Where have you been?
It’s nice to see you again
Where will we go?

Feels like 1969, feels like,

And to all the freaky people,
Nod your head, ‘cause this funk’s sticky like glue!

We’re gonna make some cuts for y’all tonight. It’s gonna feel alright.

To a Saturday night,
This groove is gonna feel alright.

Looking for a new recruit.
To the ones that want to dance,
We’ll take a cash advance.
To this dope drum beat,
Designed to make your head bob.
To all the party people,
Don’t worry, we ain’t gonna stop.
Yo! To all the people with ears,
Let me break it down.
We’re gonna smash those funkspectations and bring a soulful sound.
We gonna do it to you late and party all night long.
Putting it down until the break of dawn as they say.
Yo! Tonight we’re putting on the special sauce. I’ll be the boss and you can just sit there and take notes.
For the pleasure of the courts, I’d like to enter this track as evidence, of a new musical truth.
The purpose is not to impress, but to unveil and express yourself.
So have no fear, you know what year it is?
We be living in the future.
I said, you know what year it is.
We’re gonna tear this mother up and then bring it back to life.
I said we’re gonna tear this mother up and then bring it back to life.
Yo! Do me a favour and hand me that knife.

I don’t need to waste my time,
Looking for another one.
‘Cause you’re better than anyone else, Under the sun.
A perfect score, but furthermore,
I adore you.
Anyone can see, it doesn’t get much Better than you and me.
It’s my desire,
100 Percent!
Our love is fire,
100 Percent!
What I require, is,
100 Percent!
You’ve got to admire,
100 Percent!
You know by now, I need the whole pie.
Pure, flawless and super fly.
I can always trust that you’ll be right there, by my side.
And you know, when you need somebody to love, I’m your guy.
Come on,
It’s my desire,
100 Percent!
Our love is fire,
100 Percent!
What I require, is,
100 Percent!
You’ve got to admire,
100 Percent!
The full package is something most people never get to see.
And the way that you do it to me makes it feel so damn carefree.
It might be considered greedy
To wish for more.
And there’s no doubt that you’re the gold standard and I want to be your guarantor.
It’s my desire,
100 Percent!
Our love is fire,
100 Percent!
What I require, is,
100 Percent!
You’ve got to admire,
100 Percent!
