Is that you, sitting there?
You’re looking so uptight
Is it true, don’t you dare
Go on like this tonight
You gotta let the evening come and give you some new life
So get up out your seats because we’re here for a good time
_____
So take a look around the room
Your body knows just what to do/….
_______
Stand up!... If you know what’s right
Everybody stand up!.... If you know it’s time
Stand up!..... If you know what’s right
Everybody stand up!..... If you know it’s time for a good time…
Is that you, getting down
You’re looking mighty fine
Is it true? Have you found
A place for us to shine
Everybody’s dancing and we’ll go til morning light
So get up out your seats and move your feet along with mine
_____
So take a look around the room
Your body knows just what to do/….
_______
Stand up!... If you know what’s right
Everybody stand up!.... If you know it’s time
Stand up!..... If you know what’s right
Everybody stand up!..... If you know it’s time for a good time…

Show Your Heart
04:02
|
|||
People, people chatter
About nothing that matters
It's time to see some action
And show we got some passion
You can call it an obsession, you can call it just a thrill
But it’s all about expression, and we’re going for the kill!
___
If you’re moving to the beat, then join the fight along with me
You gotta show you give a damn… time to start!
It’s time to break away the chains
And get onboard this crazy train
*we gotta make it to the end…. show your heart
It’s like we’re going backwards
Aint got no time for cowards
I know we can do better
It's time to come together
___
You can call it an obsession, you can call it just a thrill
But it’s all about expression, and we’re going for the kill!
___
People, people shouting
Sure gets the heart a-pounding
We’re climbing up the tower
And we’re taking back the power

Slippin'
03:10
|
|||
Patch up the hole that let's the sun in
And get ready for the rain
I don’t know honey but time will tell man it's just as well
Cause I never, oh I never wanna play again
(Ah ha!) Oh you know, that I’m slippin, slippin
(Ah ha!) ain't keeping it to myself, but I
I’m slippin, slippin
There comes a time, it’s hard, but you gotta let that shit go
You're burning up oh but so am I, man we gotta try,
To take back tomorrow
(Ah ha!) Oh you know, that I’m slippin, slippin
(Ah ha!) ain't keeping it to myself, but I
I’m slippin, slippin
Gimme that greasy intro…..
slippin slippin, slippin slippin, slippin
Let's cut it loose
Step out , work that thang your momma gave you
C’mon baby take control, you have to know,
You gotta work to make your dreams come true
(Ah ha!) Oh you know, that I’m slippin, slippin
(Ah ha!) ain't keeping it to myself, but I
I’m slippin, slippin

Romantic
03:32
|
|||
It’s something about the way you left
Got me thinking of how I made a mess
I don’t take this for granted All the hard work that you do
Think I figured it out, I’m not the best
At running all over town, and taking rest
I got to be romantic And always be there for you
You’re the reason why
I wake up and I know I got this feeling I
Wanna see you all my life
It’s speeding by
But when I got you by my side you’re healing my
Worries they all float away
Spending most of my time in line of fire
Leaving everything right down to the wire
But it’s to no advantage If I can’t come home to you
You gotta know that you’re always on my mind
And I tell myself every single time
I got to be romantic And always be there for you
I think I've been here before
Something I used to ignore
Running around and I think that I found it- Not fit for circumstances
What I'd been searching for
Was always right behind the door
Running around and I think that I found it
It's all about romancing
It's something about the way I missed
That I should be around and not resist
I got a point of vantage with a brand new point of view
thought it would've been just a simple fix
But it took all the trust and all the risk
I got to be romantic and always be there with you

Heavy
03:14
|
|||
It’s always so damn lonely in my head
Outside looking inwards instead
Would you let me in and help me on my way
There’s just so much I don’t know how to say
I’ve caught this feeling, something brewing deep inside
And I just can’t find the time to let it see the morning light
You keep on rushing me there’s more than what’s in sight
Hold on to this moment it’ll be alright
Oh there’s something about the way you stop and stare
Make me weak, take the chill right out the air
Got me feeling like I never have before
Why do I still need a little more?
These empty nights they make me want to be with you
But every time you ask me darlin I just can’t come through
I need my space my time to find me something new
I’m not ready to be true to you
You got me heavy, I can’t stand your love
You got me heavy, I can’t stand your love
I can’t stand your love
You got me heavy, I can’t stand your love

Got To Get Through
04:46
|
|||
You say you’ve gone in a new direction
Telling me how it’s the only way
I’d say you’re caught in another dimension
So maybe it is time to say
Is it worth the mention?
Should I even try to get your attention?
Floating through the galaxy
No time for convention
Gotta let you know about my intention
Loving you is fantasy
Callin me up with a new obsession
You say you got it figured out
Come and sit down, it’s an intervention
I’ll tell you what it’s all about
This conspiracy (everything you try to get me to see)
All I find’s a waste of time
Your reality (always talkin about your analyses)
But I got something on my mind
I’ve got to get through…
I’ve got to get through to you baby

That's The Way
03:32
|
|||
Put on them black stiletto shoes, lets go
Get down, get the fever, feel loose
You gotta feel the heat, catch that beat, light the fire higher by the heels of your feet
Show me what you desire, get on your funky attire
We got time to kill, such a thrill, boogie on down now, say you will
That's the way we like to say get your groove on
That's the way we like to say get it get it on
Feel the moment let it in
Don't you fight, don't you fight no more
You feeling heavy
Let’s get ready
I’ll show you what you can do
Step to the right
Reach for the light
And boogie down the whole night through
That's the way we like to say get your groove on
That's the way we like to say get it get it on
Feel the moment let it in
Don't you fight, don't you fight no more

Vanity
03:28
|
|||
Oh you want me to want you
I want you to want me
Lose myself completely
Cause I’m wading through the dark thoughts
And this quick fix keep me caught
Scrolling set me free
Oh you got me hooked on vanity
I need this for my sanity
Cause your love it gets me higher, higher, higher
Oh hey I know that you’re watching
Send me some serotonin
Crawl up under my skin
Oh hey there narcissistic lady
They’re paying you to save me
Sell me love, set me free
Pull me further, further, further down
Get me higher, higher, higher now

In Control
03:30
|
|||
Are you feeling in control? Can you feel it in you soul?
All these nights are sleepless, and you’re wondering where we are
Caught up in the thought of going right back to the start
All this time you’ve spent talking about the way that you feel
Could’ve been put to a better way to make it real
SO was it (was it was it was it) was it just a waste?
Because it (cause it cause it cause it) cause it looks that way…
All these nights I’ve been around there was never a good time
Caught between a rock and a hard place, with all of your lies
All along you’ve been pretending everything is alright
Should’ve known before too long you’d take it to a fight
SO was it (was it was it was it) was it just a waste?
Because it (cause it cause it cause it) cause it looks that way…
The writing’s on the wall
Are you feeling in control? Can you feel it in your soul?
All my life I've been the one to walk along the fine line
Thought I'd be the best and the rest would come along behind
All this time I'd been defending everything you called right
Should've known deep in my bones that I had become blind
SO was it (was it was it was it) was it just a waste?
Because it (cause it cause it cause it) cause it looks that way…
The writing’s on the wall
