Ooh, look at me, I'm a Cadillac
I'm a brand new convertible child
I've never been driven baby, U're the first
Come on baby, drive me wild ... ooh
Ooh, look at me, I'm a telephone
Whatever U want, just dial
Come on honey, please, it's so easy
Do it baby, drive me wild
CHORUS:
Come on baby, do it, drive me wild
Do it baby, drive me wild
Come on baby, do it, drive me wild
Do it baby, drive me wild
Ooh, look at me, I'm a radio
Call me up, make a request

When I'm bad, baby, I'm the best
CHORUS
Ooh, look at me, I'm a baby doll
Just pick me up and I'll smile
I may be young but I'm a whole lotta fun

CHORUS
Ooh, do it, drive me wild
Come on baby, drive me wild
Ooh, do it, drive me wild
Come on baby, drive me wild
Once again I don't follow trends, they just follow me

the Undisputed truth and get FREE
My level is now what U must learn 2 rise above
Talk 2 D'Angelo or better yet ?usetlove
Chorus:
How is it that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?
I'm 2 far right 2 get left goin' sideways, Jack
How is that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?
Never We mind what U do, in Moneyapolis - We da MACK!
5 little Indians tryin' 2 steal from my stack
A groove or 2 later, all the critics tell them what they lack
A bowl of them 'O's is like sugar, and no smack
How is it that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?
Chorus
And I... woke this morning 2 a drum roll - RATATAT
B4 I even got outta bed, I got another track
Who's that brushin' they teeth in the bathroom,
slender, fine and black?
Never she mind what U do, in Moneyapolis I'm the MACK
Chorus
4 every royalty point of urs I make a mill$advance
That's y in videos U never c me dance
Y should I, when minorities get half a chance?
In truth: U r 2 me, simply - my biggest fan.
Chuck D.'s rhyme:
Come 1, come all 2 the download ball
There's no curfew 2 hurt U - No substitutions
School's now in session
put down the Smith & Wessons
Real renegades don't invite grenades 2 make the grade
This is a brain raid - Who rise above the lies
Raise above these days
New ways disguised as a craze
Uh, gotcha back against the status they thrown at us
Back against the wall again - HIgh trees catch a lot of wind
Last band standin'
Gotta knack 4 overstandin'
Accordin' 2 plan and look up in the sky
No cable wire
God bless the child
Is that my song playing on the radio?
"It could b G, I can't remember, I wrote it in '84!"
Y'all keep groovin' - U know I got nothin' but love 4 sho
Take it - like Clarence said:
"I got a million of them -
and they're all different, U know."
{Long version of Thieves In The Temple}
I'm holdin' on (I'm holdin' on) the best that I can
Love please, (let me be) let me be the better man
Better than the ones that wanna count me out
Better than the ones that don't know what my love's about
I'm talkin' 'bout the kinda love that can move a mountain
The kinda love that could part the sea
The kinda love that'll last 4 ever
(no matter what u say we should be together)
U should be with me (thieves in the temple)
Yeah, u should be with me
I said I wanna know (talk to me)
one thing (talk to me)
said I wanna know (talk to me)
I wanna know one thing, baby (talk to me)
How come you said that I was your baby
When u and your love was gonna leave
U led me on, led me on thinkin' U was Moses
Herding sheep blindly through a fantasy
U done me wrong (thieves in the temple)
And everybody knows it
Now the sound of my voice is pumpin' in your chest
More or less, I am here to tell u that
I am the best
Better than the rest
Better than the thieves in the temple tonight
tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, hurt me
(Put it in)
Thieves in the temple
Thieves in the temple
Thieves in the temple
Thieves in the temple tonight
Put your foot on the rock
Let me show you how to clock
Put your foot on the rock
Let me show you how to clock
Thieves in the temple
(What the....?)
Who got the party, who got the party, who?
Who got the party, who got the party, who?
Who got the party, who got the party, who?
Who got the party, who got the party, who?
(hurt me)
Thieves in the temple
I knew this dude/He was very cool
He used 2 rule/Until he went 2 school
Not a normal school/That breeds a fool
But the ones that teaches/Men aren't fit to rule
That's when he took his pearly crown/He raised it up and spun it 'round
And tossed in2 the deep blue underground
No longer lead by the ways of men/He looked 4 the kingdom deep within
That's when the drums in his head began 2 pound
Don't let nobody bring u down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now/Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring u down/The Everlasting Now
Now turn the page, at an early age
This brutha on stage, he was all the rage
He taught an integrated world 2 sing
The color u are don't mean a thing
Everybody's a star all the everyday people sang
He changed the funk, put it in a bag
Then he changed the colors of the flag
But u can't teach a dog new tricks if his tail don't wag
Don't know matter how much money u made
All the cars u got and all the women u laid
Mess with the flag and 2 them u're still a spade
Don't let nobody bring u down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now
Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring u down
The Everlasting Now
See this girl in her make-believe world/Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl/There r the dreams that do unfurl
Never everlasting
Don't let anybody bring u down/The Everlasting Now
Watch that girl in her make-believe world
Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl
Electric beaches skin do bake
Vanilla fudge and wedding cake
If u should die b4 u wake
U got any last requests 2 make?
The Everlasting Now/The Everlasting Now/The Everlasting Now
Johnny, B. Well and bring the beat
From this day forward 'til times indefinite, those who love Christ r the
ones who benefit. All the players' ice melted in2 one platinum chain and in
a downward spiral it dropped down the chain.
"U know, this is funky but I wish he'd play like he used 2, old
scragglyhead."
Don't let nobody bring u down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now
Join the party, come on make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring u down
The Everlasting Now
The Everlasting Now/The Everlasting Now
The Everlasting Now/Now, now, now
The Everlasting Now
At 42,000 feet above the sea
That's where U and I first came 2 be
From the dust of the earth and the knowledge tree
Te amo corazón {Spanish for: "I love U, sweetheart"}
At last I can tell U what I've known so long
My heart's been crying out 2 sing this song
I don't care who knows it cuz there's nothing wrong
Te amo corazón
I'm so scared of losing U
I really don't know what I'd do
Can't bear the thought of another day apart
My heart, my heart... corazón
{scatting}
At once when I first laid eyes on U
I saw heaven and Earth anew
Everyone else saw my brown eyes, no longer blue
Te amo corazón
Oh yeah, oh yes
At first I couldn't find the words 2 say
How much U've changed me in every way
I just wanna thank U, oh, each and every day
Te amo corazon
I can't disguise the pounding of my heart
It beats so strong
It's in your eyes what can I say
They turn me on
I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
Come on and touch the place in me
That's calling out your name
We want each other oh so much
Why must we play this game?
Don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
I don't care if we spend the night at your mansion
I don't care if we spend the night on the town
All I want is 2 spend the night together
All I want is 2 spend the night in your arms
To be around u is so-oh right
You're sheer perfection (thank u)
Drive me crazy, drive me all night
Just don't break up the connection
I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
I don't care where we go

Hello.
Vanessa?

So how are you?

Excuse me, but ah, what's up with your voice?
It's a special phone, a tone box
A tongue box. Oh, l-like in the movie Barbarella.
Yeah. Gives me courage, u know
Like a veil I can hide behind
It talks at, around, through her
Ok, so why are you giving me an interview
Because I want u...
Pardon me?
To tell the truth
Oh - well, I will if you will.
For example, the first song of your opera
Ah, the opera
Why don't you tell me your real name.
My name is Victor
That is not the truth and you know it.
How old are you?
I'm into my 5th soul now so that makes me three hundred...
Why do you pretend to be a maze?

Although rumor has it that the crown princess of Cairo
is now a member of the NPG.
Are you there?
Ahem...
Do you know that the princess is 16 years old?
How 'bout this for a story. "320 year old robs the cradle"
What a scandal.
Scandal...
You know, if you don't give me the real story,
I'll have to make one up of my own.
So why don't you tell me the truth - the truth - the truth
Why don't you tell me the truth?

I got ta do this, I got the noise, I got ta do this
so pump the big noise, c'mon in the house...
this here rap's about the true confession
if ya listen close u 'bout to learn a lesson
u must know failure before success
now this is the failure I must confess (well...)
I was hanging onto life trying deal with this
playing the games, almost got dismissed
cocaine was the thing that I took on
and nowhere was the place that I was going (preacher, cmon on)
I must tell the truth, I cannot lie
I was headed 4 the kill, steal, destroy, and die
top 2 the bottom 2 bottom 2 top
success is where I'm headed there ain't no doubt
success is something that we all want
but the truth is what we need to reach our point
I had to give this message the so-called truth
I hope it's somthing in it that's there 4 u
{on top of:
love to the left of me, love to the right
come on make a noise, somebody
party tonight! (oh yeah!)}
like I told ya before, I'm a tell ya again
success is something that's deep within
so remember the truth you cant go wrong
the flesh is weak and the spirit is strong
I know it to do this rap, and I know its right
'cause I did it in the name of Jesus Christ
(cmon somebody lets party tonite)
Party tonight! (oh yeah!)
you want me 2 what?? (shake!)
what? (shake! shake!)
awww, right
the New Power Generation has just taken control
If she could b Muse 2 the Pharoah
Then one day she might b Queen
If like Sheba, she then could bring presents/presence and wine
The helix he might get between them
In other words, intertwine
With the ebony and milk of her thighs
If she could be Muse and let him decide
Perhaps she'll let him decide
If she could b Muse 2 the Pharoah,
There is nothing he wouldn't give her c
4 the future of the nation rests in her belly
And if the Proverbs of the 31 and verse 10
Becomes the verse she sings again and again
She might b Queen
Take a load off, sweetie darling
Let me run agenda thru ur hair
There's so much information 4 the next generation
Who's gonna drop it if u're not there?
And whether the enemy makes a run on the palace
Or whether the enemy does not,
The children will be laced with the protection of the word of God
The opposite of NATO is OTAN
And if the number 13 is such a bad luck number
When there's no such thing as luck
Then the berries, talons, arrows and stars
Are all superstitions, what the ...
Get busy big baby cuz when dem devil come
Dem devil come dressed as light
Maybe they gon' fool the untrained mind
But nobody eye know gon' bite
Like a thief in the night
My Lord come and strike
Leave nothing but ashes to the left, dust 2 the right
Holocaust aside, many lived and died
But when all truth is told
Would u rather b dead or b sold?
Sold 2 the one who can now mate the displaced bloodline with the white jailbait.
Thinkin' like the keys on Prince's piano will be just fine
So there it is - 4 all 2 c
Now what's beyond u and me
Depends my friends primarily
On how u view ur role in Eternity
Could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world
It’s plain to see
You’re the reason that God made a girl
When the day
Turns into the last day of all time
I can say
I hope you are in these arms of mine
And when the night
Falls before that day I will cry, I’ll cry
Tears of joy
‘Cause after you all one can do is die

But when I do I see you and I’m devoured, oh, yes
Who’d allow, who’d allow
A face to be soft as a flower
I could bow [Bow down]
And feel proud in the light of this power
Oh...ho...yes...oh...ho...
Could you be, could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world
Could you be
It’s plain to see
You’re the reason that God made a girl
Oh, yes, you are
And if the stars
Ever fell one by one from the sky
I know Mars
Could not be, uh, too far behind
‘Cause baby, this kind of beauty
Has got no reason to ever be shy
‘Cause honey, this kind of beauty
Is the kind that comes from inside
Could you be, could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world
So beautiful, beautiful
It’s plain to see, plain to see
You’re the reason that God made a girl
Ho...ho...ho...yeah...
Could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world
You, you must be a, oh....yeah
It’s plain to see, ooh...ooh...
You’re the reason that God made a girl
You’re the reason, hey, hoo, yeah
If the stars ever fell one by one from the sky
Oh...ho...ho...ooh...yeah
I know Mars could not be to far behind
Oh...ooh...ho...
Could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world
Could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world

The emale left so clearly upon a computer screen
Read like a threat that crept into her like a sex machine
Wanted: Any woman who's first name begins with a "Z"
From the sound of the keys, a pawn makes a move
Her reply brings on the groove
www.emale.com
The king takes the pawn
www.emale.com
It's on, it's on, it's on!
He couldn't wait 2 tell her 'til after he got the nella
Her love would only even the score
It seemed her darling fella
He stole a hellalotta bucks from the corner store
The declaration of war that followed
She never believed, oh
In the darkest corners where widows mourn
That's where he whispered her name
He said, "We can do it here, my dear
But I fear your tears will fall like rain"
They fall like...
"Because I must tell U (Tell U)
While I'm deep in your smell
U got the man I want 2 inflict with pain
I'm running a game with my paper
I'm turning the boy 2 vapor
Now I wanna do the same 2 U
If U don't tattoo my name upon your train"

Little darling
Gotta go now
Don't know when I'll be coming back

Things don't always turn out right
That's just the way it goes
Before I leave u there's just a few things u should know
Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget to say your prayers at night
Remember god he made u
And one day he'll make everything alright
Don't cross on yellow
U always got to wait 4 a green light
Remember god he made u
One day he'll make everything alright
Alright
Little darling
Gotta go now
Don't worry u'll be just fine
When it comes 2 good luck
I just know, I just know u'll always be the first in line
Nobody'll ever love u as much as I do
That doesn't mean other people won't love u 2
Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget 2 say your prayers at night
Remember god he made u
And one day he'll make everything alright
Don't cross on yellow
U always got to wait 4 a green light
Remember god he made u
And one day he'll make things alright
Alright
Make everything alright
Alright
Little darling
Gotta go now
Got my future all planned out
Before I go
Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget to say your prayers at night
Remember god he made u
Damned if I do
Tell me what's up with the teenage indecision
Im mad in love but u wont give me permission
U said, be here at 9
Then scream at me 4 not giving u more time, more time
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
U say u want me 2 love u
But when I try, u wont
Maybe, maybe we should say goodbye
Damned if I do
Tell me the truth, how many u do it 2?
I smell vermouth everytime I don't get 2 kiss u
Enoughs enough
If u don't want my lovin, then I'll give up, I'll give up
Chorus:
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
U say u want me 2 love u
But when I try, u wont
Baby, maybe we should say goodbye
Goodbye
Damned if I don't try 2 make u see yourself the way I do
Open minded, worldly, always ready 4 taboo
Tell me what's up, are we gonna go 2 heaven?
Ill fill your cup, I wont do it like kevin
Chorus
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
Baby, maybe we should say goodbye
Maybe we should say, I do

I've held your hand so many times
But I still get the feeling I felt the very first time
I've kissed your lips and laid with U
And I cherish every moment we spend in each other's arms
I guess my eyes can only see as far as U
I only want 2 be with U
We've come so far in so little time
That sometimes I wonder if this is meant 2 be
Sometimes U are so very kind
That the nights U're not with me I'm scared that U're gonna leave
I guess U could say that I'm just being a fool
But I only want 2 be with U
I dare ya 2 sit down on this one
1, 2, 3, ah!
G.W. turn the lights on!
When U were mine
I gave U all of my money
Time after time
U done me wrong
Just like a train
U let all my friends come over and eat
U were so strange
Didn't have the decency 2 change the sheets
Oh honey, when U were mine
I used 2 let U wear all my clothes
U were so fine (So fine)
Maybe that's the reason that it hurt me so
I know (I know) that U're going with another guy
Where's my background?
I don't care (don't care) I love U, baby, that's no lie, that's no
Love U more than I did when U were mine
Renato, gimme that old time solo
When U were mine
U were all I ever wanted 2 do
Now I spend my time
Following him whenever he's with U
I know (I know) that U're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care) I love U, baby, baby, that's no lie, no no
Love U more than I did when U were mine
When U were mine, yeah
Take my name, I don't need it
Nothing stays the same anyway
Take my fame, I can't use it
My girlfriend calls me lame, the game was over yesterday
Tell me, what's my name?
Tell me, what's my name?
What's my name?
Take this bass, I can't play it
It only makes me wish 4 the way it used 2 be
U could slap my face, but I got 2 say it
U never would have drank my coffee if I had never served U cream
Now tell me, what's your name?
Tell me, what's your name?
What's your name?
What's your name?
Come on!
Do U dream in color or do U discriminate?
Do U love others, do U love or do U hate?
Do U worship fire or do U worship a dove?
Do U live a liar or do U live 4 love?
What's your name?
What's my name?

Now there must b a wedding
Now there must b a feast
A feast, a feast
A smorgasbord at least
A brunch, a munch
Of cake if just a piece
Not just a vat of chitlins
Or turkey meat u c
We r what we eat
So we must eat a leaf
We'll dine under a tree
"Blow your horn, Maceo!"
Say it (Blow your horn, Maceo {repeated by audience})
Come on
Whatcha got on your feet, some Jordans?
Just the drums
Maceo, hit me now!
It would be ludicrous 2 think that we are new 2 this

We do do this, it's what we do
It would be ludicrous 2 think that we are new 2 this
We do this, this is what we do
It would be ludicrous 2 think that we are new 2 this
We do this
It would be absurd 2 think U've never heard of this
Talkin' shhh..., every word the turd of it
It would be ludicrous, we are new 2 this
We do this, this is what we...
It would be ludicrous 2 think that we are new 2 this
We do this, this is what we do
It would be ludicrous 2 think that we are new 2 this

Oh still U can't reap what U missed
U couldn't resist and now U're pissed

(Fighting broke out overnight between rival factions along the Israeli-Syrian border)
Mmm, ahh, ahh
(Initial reports claim Israeli jet fighters bombed a guerilla base)
(Killing at least 49 soldiers and 13 civilians)
Mmmm
Ahh, please honey, let's just stop 4 a minute
(Damage 2 the base is said 2 be heavy)
Uh, I just can't deal
Ah, oh baby, what's the matter?
(And the Israeli jets are reported 2 have made it back 2 the Israeli border safely)
Hmm, I guess I, I just got a lot on my mind
Damn, why don't U just turn the TV off!?
(A 49-year-old unidentified man went berzerk last night)
Old NBA no ballin' ass mo'fo'
(Opening fire with a 12-gauge shotgun in a crowded downtown restaurant)
Turn the TV off!
Uh, nevermind, I'll turn it off my muthafuckin' self!
(14 people are dead including 3 children, 4 others suffered serious injuries)
{Sonny T. shoots TV}
Dang, what'd U do that 4?
U need a hug or somethin'?
I don't know
Don't worry, it'll be alright
Yeah, I count the days
Um, yeah, look out...
I ain't got no money
I ain't like those other guys U hang around
It's kinda funny, yeah
They always seem 2 let U down
And I get discouraged, yes U do baby
Cuz I never see U anymore
I need your love baby, well, ooh
That's all I'm living 4, ooh ooh ooh, now
Didn't wanna pressure U, baby, sing it y'all
(All I ever wanted to do)
I wanna be your... (lover) yeah

Wanna turn U on, turn U out
All night long, make U shout... (aw lover) "Yeah, yeah!"
{instrumental}
Oh, ladies night at the club y'all

When they gonna have some live music down there?
U mean when they gonna have some chicken down there?
Get in y'all, hurry up!
Who's the DJ 2 night?
Who knows, we'll see when we get there
Let's go!
Record-scratchin' bastard's gonna get his ass whooped, whoever it is
Look out Tommy, who told U U could drive?
Now give me them keys
Oh, how U gonna see with that mask on?
Same way I saw your mama
... that!
Put me in the trunk
Ah, I don't know about this
Did anybody ask U what U knew?
Man, have U ever had your blood pressure checked?
Man, fuck that!
How can I stand 2 stay where I am?
Poor butterfly who don't understand
Why can't I fly away in a special sky?
If I don't find my destiny soon
I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon
I want 2 live life 2 the ultimate high
Maybe I'll die young like heroes die
Maybe I'll kiss U some wild special way
If nobody kills me or thrills me soon
I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon
That's alright
Lovers like us dear are born 2 die
If they don't find us, what will we do?
I guess we'll make love under the cherry moon
Every time I watch the other people news
I c a false picture of myself, another one of u
They try 2 tell us what we want, what 2 believe
Didn't that happen in the Garden
When somebody spoke 2 Eve?
But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?
Look around and tell me ur Sun is Risen
When ur brothers and sisters r in the Fall
What is left 2 give when r work is done?
What do we own besides the right 2 crawl?
C we're living in a system that the devil designed
And suffering from this devil's most heinous crime
He's tried 2 keep us from the reason we were born
That is 2 b the living truth in human 4m
But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?
This work is not an easy task
But this is the work we must do 4 Revelation 2 come 2 pass
This work is the kind that turns ur back on the Ruling Class
By putting them in their place just like the past
Taste it, ain't it sweet sweet?
Gotta lotta work 2 do
Taste it, ain't it sweet sweet?
Gotta lotta work 2 do
Nothing can stop us
Whatever's in r way
We got 2 go thru it 2 get 2 it
I heard somebody say,
"I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?"
Thank u
2 all his good brothers the Wise One spoke highly of his Muse, because her
love 4 the one true God was growing with every passing day. So he said, "2
all a good night", sent them 2 bed early and invited his Muse 2 join him in
If ur Last December came what would u do?
Would anybody remember 2 remember u?
Did u stand tall?
Or did u fall?
Did u give ur all?
Did u ever find a reason y u had 2 die?
Or did u just plan on leaving without wondering y?
Was it everything it seemed?
Or did it feel like a dream?
Did u feel redeemed?
In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son
We need 2 come 2together
Come 2gether as one
Did u love somebody but got no love in return?
Did u understand the real meaning of love that it just is and never yearns?
When the truth arrives
Will u b lost on the other side?
Will u still b alive?
In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son
We need 2 come 2together
Come 2gether as one
In ur life did u just give a little
or did u give all that u had?
Were u just somewhere in the middle
Not 2 good, not 2 bad?
In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son
We need 2 come 2together
Come 2gether as one

Our parents wondered what it was like 2 have another color near
So they put their babies together 2 eliminate the fear
We sacrifice yes we did
Fighting one another, (we sacrifice) (don't say it preacher)
All because of color
The angel of hate - she taught me how 2 kick her
If she called me anything but Victor (u mean like nigger?)
If the only thing that tells me is father time
Then sacrifice is the mutha sublime - we love it
Listen mutha - we sacrifice
(don't... don't... don't say it preacher)

(Well, well, well, well)

Hold yo' text, deacon
Never understood my old friends laughing
They got high when everything else got wrong (pass the booze up here)
Dr. King was killed and the streets
They started burnin'
When the smoke was cleared, their high was gone
Education got important, so important 2 Victor
A little more important than ripple and weed

So what is the answer 2 the question of u
What do I look 4, what shall I do?
Which way do I turn when I'm feeling lost?
If I sell my soul, now what will it cost?
Must I become naked? No image at all?
Shall I remain upright? Or get down and crawl?
All of the questions in my life will be answered
When I decide which road 2 choose
What is the answer 2 the question of u?
