I wish I could change the minds that decided
|
That I shouldn't be knighted as a modern day Prince
|
It only makes sense, playing every instrument
|
All the money I spent doing shows with the band
|
Everybody was saying that I
|
Should have kept the show money put it in my pocket
|
But I wanted to show you the way I really rock it
|
That real music, that real emotion
|
Them 80a¢æ©÷s synths a¢æ¡° that Billy Ocean
|
|
There'll be sad songs, maybe they make you cry
|
Maybe they give you a reason why you should date a guy
|
Or maybe a reason why you should break it off
|
Or maybe the moment when you should take it off
|
Girl, girl a¢æ¡° I'll do it, I'll do it
|
That kissing, that French
|
I'm fluent, I'm fluent
|
I got your mind open on that music, that music
|
Lovin' the way you movin' when we doin' what we doin' now!
|
|
Up, down, round and round
|
I can work your body thru all your ups & downs
|
I'll show you how
|
We can make it last thru all our ups & downs
|
Yea a¢æ¡° you don't even know
|
I'ma make your body feel all those ups & downs
|
Good, good, baby
|
a¢æ?Cause ain't no way to get around ups & downs
|
|
Late nights, no sleep
|
If I ain't on my hustle then I won't eat
|
Dreamin' big, just wanna live good
|
Do it for the homies in my old hood
|
Music banging thru the windows they ain't call the cops
|
Showed up at the Virgin when my album dropped
|
I do it for my Sister, for my Mom and Pop
|
I used to be homeless behind a barber shop
|
|
I wrote some sad songs, maybe they made you cry
|
Maybe they gave you a reason why you should date a guy
|
Or maybe the reason why you should break it off
|
Or maybe the moment when you should take it off
|
Girl, girl a¢æ¡° I'll do it, I'll do it
|
That kissing, that French
|
I'm fluent, I'm fluent
|
If I don't take you with me then I'm ruined, I'm ruined
|
Lovin' the way you movin' when we doin' what we doin' right!
|
|
Up, down, round and round
|
I can work your body thru all your ups & downs
|
I'll show you how
|
We can make it last thru all our ups & downs
|
Yea a¢æ¡° you don't even know
|
I'ma make your body feel all those ups & downs
|
Good, good, baby
|
a¢æ?Cause ain't no way to get around ups & downs
|
|
And I swear that I'ma hold you down
|
(I'll do it thru the ups & downs)
|
And when your world is spinning round and round
|
(I'll do it thru the ups & downs)
|
And when you feel like you're about to drown
|
(I'll do it thru the ups & downs)
|
I'll do it thru the ups & downs, downs
|
|
Yeah
|
Up, down, round and round
|
I can work your body thru all your ups & downs
|
I'll show you how
|
We can make it last thru all our ups & downs
|
Yea a¢æ¡° you don't even know
|
I'ma make your body feel all those ups & downs
|
Good, good, baby
|
a¢æ?Cause ain't no way to get around ups & downs
|
