* Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
OhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[Verse 1: C-Bo]
Now see I be the man with all the plans
Trips and personal leer jets across the land
See me in bently in front of billboard live
Sipping on cristal crushed ice and lime
While I flex baggets and rubys on my wrist
My niggas be the shit like rotweilers and pits
Top dollers and fits markeys to kiss
Your four keds on my pinkie might crease your lips
Got offshore accounts swizes in japan
Need money machines to count the cash at hand
Push a candy green navy on unleves with four tvs
Gold real smiling like flaming young key I'm all about the money
And I mix it with the hunnys but not a trick
Hoes can't get none from me
Catch me in rag benz count my ends I don't hate we move tapes
State to state
Surprise to see me riding your town
So much ice it'll melt the whole city might drown
Forever stay a playa and ball with tycoons
Bentlys and mansions with like 15 rooms
Fall to my doom all I wanted was the cash
Lambouginis ferraris benz convertable jags
Rolex on my right bravado on my left rollin in sweat
On my personal leer jet tycoon
[Chorus]
All I wanna do is to have the better things in life
I'm a tycoon diamond rings and live this life that's all I knew
Was to hustle day and night stack my chips and rub this ice
that's a playa's life ohhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhhhh
[Verse 2]
Double r's and movie stars wanna know who we are
Quarter million dollar cars in six car garage
It's like a mirage when you step out on the deck
All I wanted was the best so I built the rest
And iced the neck then I spiced the deck with swimming pools and hot tubs
Private flights to met cico puerto rico peruvian flakes
Metro rap cakes that I'm getting for eight
I'm straight don't use it never do I touch
I put this 40 carrots and diamonds and get them crushed
Lost the fourtune and fame I'm pushing the caine
When the fourtune put us stressed to get the fourtune I gained
And still remain the same nigga swerving the lanes
With a cup full of crushed ice pouring the champagne
Smoking the dank while I'm holding a drank
West coast my motto toting all the dank tycoon
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I be a star to those who supposed to be hoes
But only hoes like those in skirts in tight cloths
And those a dealers played out with kangols
Had troppaz so I swooped up the range rolls
Got better hoes gucci sweater cloths
And went from V.S.O.P. to X.O.
From quarter karats to cares girlfriend
Then marriage with a baby to cherish
And a mansion for my parents
Timex to Rolex all gold to diamonds
Now I "Bling Bling" like Cash Money cause I'll be shining
My broad stays smothered down
And Victoria's Secret from a disc to her ass crack
Right price to peeping in all
I'm not a pimp I just live when I walk
Karl Kani boxers is fence because of my deal with warlock
Staking lobsters from pork chops
From pissing on lingers and knolies
To pissing criss down at the yacht tycoon

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
We sleep together, close and warm
We calm each other through the storm
We set up home, but in a while
We're tempted by another's smile
When it's all played out
If the truth were known
You have to learn to live alone
We dance around the fading light
You hold me closer every night
You fell in love but I did not
But in the end you're all I've got
When it's all played out
When the truth is known
You have to learn to live alone
We fly around the world too fast
We cannot make a moment last
We love the crowd, we sing and play
We do it all, we get our way
When it's all played out
When the birds have flown
When we're all played out
If the truth were known

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
l'm born and bred in pollution's grip
First three weeks fed by a CO drip
Ain't no breast
Passed the test
I needed stronger stuff
Carbon mon-
Oxide on
Tap, couldn't get enough
My leather lungs never felt no pain
I ran around in the acid rain
Drank and smoked
Never choked
I was immune to dirt
Whisky, gin
Pumped it in
I never ever hurt
Got a car, got ahead
On the road burning lead
I'm happy as I am
I dig this greenhouse scam
All summer on the beach
Aerosols in easy reach
Needles floating out to sea
Sunshine beats down on me
No ozone in my way
Every day's holiday
If I get bored with all my modern toys
I got a walkman for my private noise
If l'm blue
I just do
Another ten db
Sony was heaven sent
l'm in my element
Once I get up there on the album charts
l'm gonna win myself a billion hearts
when they see
Little me
Saving the world tonight
Pious rage
On the stage
Turn on your brightest light
There go a million trees
Covers for my Cds
I'm a consumer therefore I consume
I buy a lot of things so gimme room
Being green
Ain't my scene
I need the parking space
Hello crack
Hello smack
Bye bye the humen race
Gimme another shot
Gimme the best you got
That's my credentials filed

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
When I'm coming out to play
When I'm walking down the street
When I'm moving to the beat
I give nothing away
When I'm slipping into bed
When I'm throwing back the sheets
When I'm handing out the treats
I leave plenty unsaid
I might be naked, wined, and dined
I might fulfill your wildest dream
But you might just as well be blind
I'm not the easy touch I seem
You'd sell your very soul to keep
What you think you got
But you make out then fall asleep
Brothers, I do not ! I do not
I stay
In control
Keep my nerve
As for you - you fools !
You get what you deserve
Courtesan, mistress, nun
Virgin, angel or whore
I can be anyone
Any two, three or four
Hooker, schoolgirl or saint
Any number of rides
But the boss man you ain't
I'm the one who decides
You deserve a girl like me
You deserve a little luck
You deserve a bit for free
You deserve a nip and tuck
You deserve your fine romance
You deserve your Juliet
You won't get a second chance
You deserve everything you get !
I don't agree with modern views
That only women bleed
If we just flatter, stroke and use
We get what we need, what we need
We staIn control
Keep our nerve
As for you - poor you !
You get what you deserve
Mother, sister or tramp
Debauchee, libertine
Primadonna or vamp
Baby doll, teenage queen
Undefiled or a slut
Perfect lady or bitch
All laid out for you but
I'm the one who says which
You deserve a girl like me
You deserve a little luck
You deserve a bit for free
You deserve a nip and tuck
You deserve your fine romance
You deserve your Juliet
You won't get a second chance

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
I never planned my daily round
I've never loved the common task
I don't rebel, I don't accept
I've often laughed, I've often wept
An ordinary working girl
There was a man until he found
The things that I began to ask
Involved him in a little more
That what he came to see me for
Oh so naive the working girl
One day I'll show him
And all the others too
Outgrow him
And have all that I'm due
Very soon
Where do I go until then ?
What do I do meantime ?
Back to the bar, I'm working late
Over and over again
I tell myself that I'm
Happy to stay here - I can wait
There are those who tell you
Never let them tell you
This is all there is, forever
I do not believe them
I shall have my moment
Any moment now - or never
The working girl is that and more
She ticks away behind the mask
She wouldn't let her spirits die
That does not mean she will not cry
When all her dreams fly out the door
An ordinary working girl
We never plan our daily round
We do not love the common task
But we don't find survival odd
Some call it luck, some call it God
I call it both feet on the ground
An ordinary working girl
On day I'll show them
And they'll all let me trough
Outgrow them
I'll have all that I'm due
Very soon
Where do I go until then ?
What do I do meantime ?
Back to the bar, I'm working late
Over and over again
I tell myself that I'm
Happy to stay here - I can wait
I know I'll have my extraordinary day
I will never hear those words again
Working girl

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
The tower grows into the night
The power pumps fortissimo
There are no pressures at this height
The world a bagatelle below
Tonight we dance
Tonight we dance
We dance - extravagance!
The bride is blessed the table laid
Bring on the devils and the priests
The dance is hot and Heaven-made
For the most moveable of feasts
The house account is in the black
The glasses loaded on the tray
A certain style is coming back
Or else it never went away
Tonight we dance
Tonight we dance
We dance - extravagance!
Tonight - intolerance
Tonight - irrevelance
Tonight - deliverance
Tonight - extravagance!
Tonight we dance
Tonight we dance
We dance - extravagance!
Autour de nous il tombe des bombes
Plus besoin de creuser nos tombes
On est tous des morts en vacances
Mais on s'en fout, ce soir on danse
The table's blessed the bride is laid
Bring on the devils and the priests
The dance is hot and Heaven-made
For the most moveable of feasts
Tonight we dance
Tonight we dance
We dance - extravagance!
Tonight - intolerance
Tonight - irrevelance
Tonight - deliverance
Tonight - extravagance!

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
Stone, the world is stone
It's no trick of the light
It's hard on the soul
Stone, the world is stone
Cold to the touch
And hard on the soul
In the grey of the streets
In the neon unknown
I look for a sign
That l'm not on my own
That l'm not here alone
As the still of the night
And the choke of the air
And the winners' delight
And the losers' despair
Closes in left and right
I would love not to care
Stone, the world is stone
From a faraway look
Without stars in my eyes
Through the halls of the rich
And the flats of the poor
Wherever I go
There's no warmth anymore
There's no love anymore
So I turn on my heels
l'm declining the fall
l've had all I can take
With my back to the wall
Tell the world l'm not in
l'm not taking the call
Stone, the world is stone
But I saw it once
With the stars in my eyes
When each colour rang out
In a thunderous chrome
It's no trick of the light
I can't find my way home

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
Ziggy, I call him Ziggy
I'm so hot for him
He's not at all like all the rest
But he's held out and he's the best
Even if I know
He would never go with me
Ziggy, they call him Ziggy
I'm so hot of him
And when I saw him that first day
I went and gave myself away
Oh so indiscreet
Oh but he was sweet to me
Four a.m. he's here by my side
Talking, laughing and making friends
Making fun of me too
He can do whatever he wants
I don't mind, but he pretends
Not to see what I go through
ziggy, my crazzy Ziggy
I get weak for him
He lives a life that I can't share
I don't know why but I know where
Oh it breaks my heart
Knowing I'm not part of him
Why won't he try anything new?
I would be his very best
And his first, in many ways
Oh if I were one of his boys
Thin and languid and self-possessed
So in demand nowadays - oh
Ziggy, I call him Ziggy
I'm so hot for him
He's not at all like all the rest
But he's held out and he's the best
Even if I know

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
All girls thinkin' the same
"I'm gonna turn him around
Be the one to change his ways
He won't resist my pleasure ground"
All girls foolin' themselves
He ain't switchin' his tack
Leave him happy, leave him be
Get your pretty fingers off his back
He knows, she knows this is a dead affair
He lies, she lies, and really try to care
Make love fake love
And no-one's gettin' very far
Nobody chooses what they are
Oh it's such a common story
And oh so sad
A most unnecessary story
And oh so sad
All girls know they can't win
I know why they still try
Ain't no shame in bein' hurt
By a certain kind of guy
All girls need to be brave
Go out lookin' for the truth
Carry on the way they do
They'll lose two kinds of youth
He knows, she knows this is a dead affair
He lies, she lies, and really try to care
Make love, fake love
And no-one's gettin' very far
Nobody chooses what they are
He can't help - what he is
You can't change - what he is
Just accept - what you are
We don't choose - what we are

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
I've been on course since seventeen
It's who you know and where you've been
Until it's you they want to know
I learned the rule ther are no rules
Exept that gentlemen are fools
I order principles to go
There is no secret to success
As long as others want it less
It is no substance it is style
Ther is no deal that can't be done
Retaliation can be fun
I never walk that extra mile
I have acquired the winner's touch
Of seeming happy with so much
I can be honest if required
I have succeeded and that's all
But then as far as I recall
That's really all that I desired
Oh I would love to change the world
Its many failings one by one
To be the artist, poet, priest
Who feels the battle can be won
And I would love to fall in love
To lose my heart, to lose control
To break away, set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul
The darkest secrets of my soul
Oh I would love to change the world
To feel my momen's just begun
To steal a march, to play for keeps
To break the mould, to jump the gun
As no-one else has ever done
And I would love to fall in love
And I give you all of me and more
I long to say that I believe
in words I've never used before
In words no lover used before
Oh i would love to change the world
To break away set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
l've a message for the world
And my ever-loyal fans
For I don't know what
Stories you've read
I'm killing off Baby Doll
l've more exciting plans
Baby Doll's gonna quit
While she's ahead
This is her final goodbye
To all the glam and glitz
This is about her checking out
I'm taking off the Ritz
Come and watch her die
l've had it up to here
Don't miss the last goodbye
The exit of the year
I've spent the last decade
Pretending that I'm under thirty
And regularly laid
When I hate even talking dirty-oh yes...
How much I long to be unrecognised
And lead a quiet suburban life
And be a half-forgotten dream
And a wife...
Nobody knew it could be hell
When I was filmed with guys in bed
What they were thinking, you could tell
I used to think about the bread
And it's time for a rest
To go out on a high
I've given my best
So this is goodbye
You can keep the whole shebang
The parasitic gang
The nuts galore
Around my door
I ain't gonna slide downhill
l'm leaving while l'm still divine
No-one's gonna have the thrill
Seeing a sad decline
High on the peaks of fame
I feel the winds of change
I feel the winds of change
Nothing evre stays the same
When the only way is down
When nothing excites, let lesser lights
Scramble for the crown
Come and watch her die
I've had it up to here
Don't miss the last goodbye
The exit of the year
I've given all l've got
l've glittered for the glitterati
But now l'd trash the lot
So welcome to my farewell party - a legend's party....
Observed in close-up by a billion eyes
I say my final intimate goodbyes
As I descend the golden stairs, I'll cry:
"Let me go, let me leave you all!
Let her die! Let the curtain fall!"
The cameras roll -
I pause a moment, for effect
With the timing you'd expect
"Let me go, let me leave you all!
Let her die! Let the curtain fall!"
The cameras roll -
And then a final heartfelt tear
As I begin to disapear
"I love you" from the fading queen
The perfect ending to the scene
And the waiting limousine

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
l've only got one life
So why give it away?
Why let someone else
Think what I think
Say what I say?
Tell me like it is
Tell me what l've done wrong
I don't get that lovin' feelin'
Coming on strong
What you feel is not my concern
What you'll lose you'll soon learn
Me I went with you to give you all that I could
But you went with me
Because I make you look good
You ain't fooling me, it's abundantly clear
Screwing me was just another move in your career
Never heard you moaning before
You always came back for more
Ego trip - you are on an ego trip
Ego trip - I ain't on no ego trip
I thought it was love and companionship
What a rip -
Off, it's just another ego trip
I've given you the world and that's only the start
The least you can do is let me into your heart
The most you can do is believe what I say
I'm down on my knees, in complete disarray
Listen babe when push comes to shove
I'm in love, I'm in love
Ego trip - you're just on your ego trip
Ego trip - I ain't on no ego trip
The basis of this here relationship
Isn't hip
It's nothing but an ego trip.....
What used to be good
Took a terminal dip
A fatal slip

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
You'd think we'd got no cause
To kick against the pricks
To mess with politics
To tear this sucker down
No need to settle scores
When we are not deprived
This bloody perfect town
But no
We're cocky on the boulevards
A little damage done
A little damage done
Alittle harm to do
Before the night is through
Before the battle's won
And when we hit the street
Made up with shining hate
The narrow and the straight
Are skipping to our beat
Oh yes
We're striking on the boulevards
A little damage done
Hey !
Since we're the stuff of life
We've had enough of life
Nagging us, dragging us, flagging us down
Hey !
We don't want to wait for life
Degenerate in life
Screwing us, chewing us, spewing us out
A little damage done
A gesture from the guys
The ones who realise
The ending has begun
A knife that goes astray
A minor scuffle here
A small explosion there
A tiny price to pay
For life !
We're shaking up the Boulevards
A little damage done
We are the ones who care
The ones who mean to win
The ones who don't give in
To comfort or despair
And please remember this
In case of accident
That we did not invent
This dead metropolis
Nor us !
We did not build the boulevards
The damage had been done !
Hey !
Since we're the stuff of life
We've had enough of life
Nagging us, dragging us, flagging us down
Hey !
We don't want to wait for life
Degenerate in life
Screwing us, chewing us, spewing us out
So get the stretchers out
The boys are moving in
And anxious to begin
The evening's roustabout
It's gonna be a night
To stay behind locked doors
Or else embrace the cause
We know you know we're right !
And so
Be careful on the boulevards
Your precious metal boulevards
We're tearing up the boulevards

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
A reasonable request
This is too high a price to pay
Now they've taken you away
Might as well take me
Down, down to hell for I don't care
They can put me anywhere
Throw away the key
I always walked a definite line
Cutting a dash, cutting it fine
And once, only once did I lose control
I gave her my soul
And I gave, and I gave, and I gave
Her my soul
I was immortal till today
Now I feel a cold decay
Crawling over me
No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
No other interest
This is the way you should remain
Never feeling any pain
Never growing old
Sleep little one, your night is here
Mine is growing very near
