Well, here's to the freaks
Everybody's unique
My own twenty three is what makes me me
And what makes you you
You know it's true

So be yourself

Well, you know it's true
There's no-one like you
So be sure to know that you're beautiful

Are you gonna do what feels good
Or do what everybody wants you to
Just be yourself

You got legs
That go way up to the top
The way you walk
In that pretty little frock
With your hair flowing down
Like it's never gonna stop
You're the real thing

You got eyes
I'd like to dive inside
And your body, babe
You ain't got nothing to hide
And when you smile
You make a grown man cry
You're the real thing

You're like the writer's muse
In so many songs
Cos you're the kind of woman
That every man wants

You're a goddess
From the bottom to the top
If you were holy water
I would never waste a drop
I get drunk on you
And I don't know how to stop
You're the real thing

You're like a shower of rainbows
That light up the world
There's nothing false about you
You're the perfect girl

No matter what
I love whatever you do
I'd walk a million miles
Just to enjoy the view
There's not a single man
Who's not in love with you
You're the real thing

You're the real thing, baby
You're the real thing
Don't know a single man
Who's not in love with you
You're the real thing

Who's gonna take the fall

And you're the one for me
That's why I'm willing to fight

You're the melody to my bridge
And there's no other person in this whole wide world
That I'd rather be in the trenches with

I wanna fight these battles with you by my side
I'm gonna fight life's battles with you by my side

Cause I know a damn good thing
I can see it with my own eyes
And you're the one for me
That's why I'm willing to fight

CHORUS

Come on baby, Come on honey now you know that it's true -
Well I never, I never met a girl like you
If I told you, if I told you would you even believe?
I got nothing, nothing hidden up my sleeve

Even in my wildest dreams I never thought I'd find you hidden in between
The darkness and the light inside of me
Every now and then I see you smile,
I hear you laughing like a little child,
So come on honey, Come on home and see

CHORUS:
Godspeed your love, speed your love to me
Godspeed your love, speed your love to me

Come on baby, Come on honey now you know that it's true -
Well I never, I never loved a soul like you.]
Let me hold you, Let me hold you
Could you even receive my love?
Well there's nothing,
There's nothing hidden up my sleeve

Even in my wildest dreams I never thought I'd find you hidden in between
The darkness and the light inside of me
Every now and then I see you smile,
I hear you laughing like a little child,
So come on honey, come on home and see

There is poison in the water
There is fear in the air
I just know that trouble's coming
You can sense it everywhere
It's a feeling in my bones
It's a feeling in my soul
There is only one way out
When your back's against the wall

There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
I tell you now, I tell you now
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this

Is there something that you're missing?
Is there something you don't get?
You can't take it to the limit
When you're standing on the edge
There ain't no use trying to hide it
When it's obvious to see
That you want to light a fire
But you should just let it be

There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
I tell you now, I tell you now

Hmn, that's right

Yeah, you better believe it
You better believe it
Yeah, you better believe it
You better believe it

Well you want to rise to heaven
But you're going straight to hell
If you stop for just a second
You might see what's going down
Soon bad karma's coming for you
And you'll pay for what you done
Yeah, bad karma's coming for you
And you'll pay for what you done

There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
I tell you now, I tell you now
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Oh, I tell you now, I tell you now

There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good
There ain't no good gonna come of this
Ain't no good gonna come of thiss

It's the calm before the storm
For you'll bring trouble to my door
Maybe this is a mistake
But I could use the company

I should be turning you down
But it's too late for that now

You got me
Oh, baby you got me now
You got me
Yeah, baby you got me now
You got me
Oh, baby you got me now

You gotta break through it
If you're a fighter, fight
If you're a writer, write
You got to keep on trying
Till you get it right, ooh

PRE-CHORUS 1
Ooh...
Shed a little light on yourself
Show the other side of you
A beacon in the night that burns
Brighter, brighter

Uh, now listen

Yeah Do it

I said do it
Do it
Just do it

You're a real go-getter
There ain't no flies on you
But time is tight than a high wire
And there's a whole lotta things to do

No time like the present
Can't rely on nobody else
You're a soul on a mission and you're ready to roll
If you want something done
You better do it yourself

Well, we should help each other
Always share the load
If you need me, just hit me up
And I'll do whatever I'm told

But when the oil's hot and the chips need cooking
And you ain't got the time to wait
It's too late to prevaricate
If you want something done
You gotta do it yourself

I was feeling so down
With no love to be found
'Bout as broken as a man could be
I was thinkin' all was lost
That line was surely crossed
Then your eyes met mine, it was so divine

CHORUS:
You are so heavenly - forever yours I'll be
Our love is the highest high for eternity
You are so heavenly

I had so much to learn
Didn't know which way I'd turn
When you lose at love, you've lost everything
Then I knew right from the start
You'd mend this broken heart
A miracle from above, oh the joy you bring

You are so heavenly - forever yours I'll be
This love is the highest high for eternity
You are so heavenly - forever yours I'll be
Our love is the highest high for eternity

Oooh oooh - so wonderful
I'm so glad you're mine
Oooh, love is so powerful
Unbelievable -- so glad you feel it too

For forty days and forty nights I was high high high
You drove me like a rental car til I broke down on your joy ride

I woke up to an empty bed without a penny to my name
And now I'm searching high and low cuz you're a habit I just can't break

Yeah I know you're no good for me
That's what everyone says
But oh baby you're a hot mess

I see your face everywhere I go but you always disappear
You're like a not so friendly ghost you're everywhere but you're never here

Yeah I know you're no good for me
That's what everyone says
But oh baby you're a hot mess

You gotta get the funk into your life
Baby let the groove be your guide
Feel it in your bones
Feel it in your soul
Once you got the funk
Let it flow

You can take it from me
I know what I'm talking about
You can set yourself free
If you just get on down

You gotta get the funk into your life
Baby let the groove be your guide
Feel it in your bones
Feel it in your soul
Once you got the funk
Let it flow

You can take it from me
I know what I'm talking about
You can set yourself free
If you just get on down

You gotta get the funk into your life
Baby let the groove be your guide
Feel it in your bones
Feel it in your soul
Once you got the funk
Let it flow

You gotta get the funk into your life
(Gotta to let the funk in)
Baby let the groove be your guide
(Gotta to let the funk in)
Feel it in your bones
Feel it in your soul
(Gotta to let the funk in)
Once you got the funk
Let it flow

But I can only imagine
Yeah I can only imagine

Friday night in my ride
Something in the air has got me thinking
Something's going down tonight
Buzzed and I'm not even drinking
Wasn't till you caught my eye
That everybody else ceased to exist
And I didn't have to question why
I knew this was a moment we could not miss

The way you move your body
Across the floor
You become the beat that keeps it flowin'
I wanna move your body
Closer to the door
See if we can keep this rhythm goin'

CHORUS

When you're swaying side to side
Everybody's looking but they can't touch
Cuz for the moment now you are mine
Got my heartbeat racing my blood feels the pump of the kick when it thumps
Put my hands where you want
Is this real or is it fantasy
Are you even really here with me
Would I know if you were a dream

The way you move your body
Across the floor
Like you doin' it just for me
I wanna move your body
Closer to the door
Cuz if you see what I see then

CHORUS

I wonder can I take you home
I wonder can I take you home

CHORUS
