Lyrics


1. LOVE IS A DANGEROUS THING

You take your chances with modern romances
Remember everything that you've learned
If you give into desire you're playing with fire
And you could be so easily burned

If you want to be a lover you'd better take cover
It's too late to forgive if you forget
When you roll the dice you'd better think twice
'Cause what you see ain't always what you get

[Chorus:]
You take the risk right from the start
'Cause love is a dangerous thing
It's like a loaded gun pointed straight at your heart
Love is a dangerous thing

If your first reaction is for satisfaction
Don't forget that you've got plenty of time
Before you give into it you'd better think trough it
Remember it's your life on the line

If you're lookin' for a lover you'd better take cover
It's too late to forgive if you forget
When you roll the dice you'd better think twice
'Cause what you see ain't always what you get

[Chorus]

Gotta get love, god I need love, gotta have it
Lookin' for love, want it but I'd better not
Give into your love, 'cause it's a dangerous thing
Gotta get love, god I need love, gotta have it
Lookin' for love, want it but I'd better not
Give into your love, 'cause love is a dangerous thing

[Chorus]


2. WHAT'S WRONG

Brother please don't turn your back on me
I was once just like you but
I've fallen through the cracks of society
Why can't anyone just lend a hand
Doesn't anybody care, doesn't someone understand
We should be ashamed because we lay the blame
Not on ourselves but on this day and age

[Chorus:]
What's wrong with everybody
Why can't anybody get along
Well I think we've got a problem
We've got to help each other out or we'll never figure out
What's wrong with everybody

Five o'clock another traffic jam
All lanes merge to one and it seems like no one gives a damn
Why can't we just let each other in
But we cut each other off and we just keep on driving

We should be ashamed because we lay the blame
Not on ourselves but on this day and age

[Chorus]

Why can't everyone just live in peace
Well we've got to pull together
And put an end to this insanity
Why can't everyone just lend a hand
Doesn't anybody care, doesn't someone give a damn

[Chorus]


3. SOMETHIN' 'BOUT YOUR BODY

Well I really admire your political views
You personal philosophy reflects your high I.Q.
And I am impressed by the way you think everything through
Baby you're so smart I know that
I could really learn a lot from you

Well you've got quite a brain but I've got half a mind
To show you what I want to do to you
With all respect your intellect takes a back seat this time
It's the physical attraction that turns me on

[Chorus:]
There's just somethin' 'bout you body
That makes me want you all the time
Oo I want your body but all I get from you is
A piece of your mind
(There's just somethin' 'bout your body)

And your body talk don't take no genius to see
The intelligent approach is gonna be most likely to succeed
I'm thinkin' about you, do you think about me
I really feel I could fulfill your full mental capacity

Well you've got quite a brain but I've got half a mind
To show you what I want to do to you
With all respect your intellect takes a back seat this time
It's the physical attraction that turns me on

[Chorus]

Somethin' 'bout your body
Body talk

Well you've got quite a brain but I've got half a mind
To show you what I want to do to you
With all respect your intellect takes a back seat this time
It's the physical attraction that turns me on

[Chorus]


4. TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING

Well I woke up this morning, pulled myself out of bed
I wish that I could sleep the day away
Just a day like any other, same old thing, over and over
I'm overworked and underpaid (and it's killing me)

Not even breakin' even, work my fingers to the bone
Barely gettin' by, keeps gettin' harder
I'm slaving on the grindstone and I get no breaks at all
Just trying to keep my head above the water

Can't make ends meet, can't even save a dime
Feels like I spend my life working overtime

[Chorus:]
Tryin' to make a livin', gotta pay the rent
(Just) tryin' to make a livin', wonder where my money went
Never seem to get ahead, it's getting' easier to see
(Just) tryin' to make a livin' and it's killing me

Times are getting tough seems I never make enough
Just doing what I can to stay alive
And I'd like to take a day off but I can't afford a layoff
Gotta keep this damn job to survive

Can't make ends meet I can't even save a dime
Feels like I spend my life working overtime

[Chorus]


5. HERE FOR YOU

So you think you've got it all figured out
Well you know you can't make it alone
Everbody needs somebody to help them out
And you know I could be that someone

And if you ever get lost on life's highway
Don't know where to go
There's just one thing that I want you to know

[Chorus:]
I am here for you, always here for you
When you need a shoulder to cry on
Someone to rely on, I am here for you

So you think that love is long overdue
Tired of looking for someone to care
Let me tell you know the choice is up to you
But you know I will always be there

[Chorus]

I am here for you, always here for you
When you're needin' someone to hold you
Remember I told you
I am here for you, I am here for you

So now you've got it all figured out
And you know you've found someone that cares
And if you ever need somebody to help you out
Well you know I will always be there

And if you ever get lost on life's highway
Don't know where to go
There's just one thing that I want you to know

[Chorus]

I am here for you, always here for you
When you're needin' someone to hold you
Remember I told you
I am here for you, I am here for you


6. GET A LIFE

Well I'm sick and tired and I am totally wired
Why don't they just leave me alone
Just 'cause the length of my hair
And the clothes that I wear
And the things that I do don't conform

Everyone's got an opinion but I don't need no advice
Seems they're mindin' everybody's business but their own
Well I do things my own way and I ain't afraid to say

[Chorus:]
Get a life
I've got better things to do than to mess around with you
Go out and get your own life
Get a life

I'm always walking the line when I ain't done no crime
I get hassled for no reason at all
See I've got my own plan tryin' to be my own man
Still they don't understand what went wrong

Everyone's got an opinion but I don't need no advice
Seems they're mindin' everybody's business but their own
Well I do things my own way and I ain't afraid to say

[Chorus]

So here's a word to the wise, you've gotta realize
You're no better than anyone else
Before you criticize you'd better open you eyes
And take a good look at yourself

[Chorus]

Get a life
You've picked the wrong one to harass why don't
You stick it up your ass, go out and get your own life


7. TWO SIDES

One man is black, one man is white
One works by the light of the day
And the other one works at night
They both live so differently but they are so much alike
They both want the very same thing just
To have a better way of life

You know you can't take sides 'cause no one's wrong or right
So don't make up you mind take another
Look before you decide

[Chorus:]
'Cause there are two sides to every story
Two different ways of looking at exactly the same thing
Two sides to every story
So don't make up your mind 'til ya hear the story from me

One nation's weak, one nation's strong
Two people side by side but they just can't get along
All war's too big ya know, no war's too small
One wants just a little piece and the other one wants it all

You know you can't take sides 'cause no one's wrong or right
So don't make up you mind take another
Look before you decide

[Chorus]

Don't make up you mind there are two sides you'll see

Oh so let me tell it to you straight
You gotta open up your eyes
You'll see perspective's everything
And you just might change your mind

[Chorus]


8. NO ONE AT ALL

Tell me why things ain't like
They used to be before
I don't know why you hurt me
But I still come back for more
Baby I don't know how much more
My heart can take
And I don't know how much longer
I can stay

They say you don't know what you've got
Sometimes until it's gone
(I said) baby don't wait that long
Oh don't take our love for granted
'Cause you might wind up with

Chorus
No one at all, no one at all
Baby you know how romance
Is you don't get no second chances
And you might wind up with no one at all

Baby you better look both ways
Before you cross my heart
I'm tellin' you it's your little games
That are tearin' us apart
Baby you never find the words
I need to hear you say
And I don't know how much longer
I can stay
So don't take our love for granted
'cause you might wind up with

[Chorus]

Oh Yeah...
They say you don't know what you've got
Sometimes until it's gone
(I said) baby don't wait that long
Oh don't take our love for granted
'Cause you might wind up with
Oh Yeah...

[Chorus]


9. TEMPTATION

Adam looked at eve she said that apple's lookin' sweet
The serpent slithered up and said c'mon let's eat
They knew that they were told to resist the tree with love
Afraid to tell the truth and now their garden's gone so

Just like anybody, the devil got me too
And now there's nothing I can do

[Chorus:]
Because temptation is comin' onto me, temptation
I'm just too blind to see your sweet temptation
Knockin' at my door, temptation I just got to get some more

The neighbor's wife is pretty and she wants a truth or dare
She justifies adultery as a meaningless affair
Later on that evening, lord she can't believe her eyes
Her old man's cheatin' lover's in a black book of disguise

Just like everybody I got a black book too
Now there's nothing I can do

[Chorus]

The sexy secretary has a twinkle in her eye
She sees a million dollars as the CEO walks by
Business mixed with pleasure and the lawyers will prevail
While the plaintiff and defendant
Are both going straight to hell
All because a little bit of

[Chorus]


10. I LIVE MY LIFE FOR YOU

You know you're everything to me and I could never see
The two of us apart
And you know I give myself to you and no matter what you do
I promise you my heart

I've built my world around you and I want you to know
I need you like I've never needed anyone before

[Chorus:]
I live my life for you
I wanna be by your side in everything that you do
And if there's only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you

I dedicate my life to you, you know that I would die for you
But our love would last forever
And I will always be with you
And there is nothing we can't do
As long as we're together

I just can't live without you and I want you to know
I need you like I've never needed anyone before

[Chorus]

I've built my world around you and I want you to know
I need you live I never needed anyone before

[Chorus]

I live my life for you
I live my life for you
