mamma
she says her mama of her father
and she says i know you like it
she wants a man whos got his game locked tight
i think she reminds me of my mother and i know she likes it
i want a woman with the same brown pies
and perl you got it, so pads
when the only boy you know is your pad
and boy you got it so wrong, when you look into her eyes
and all you really see is your prom(DrEsS)
OoooOooOooOoh cause your a
When the night falls, oh yeah
You can tell by the way that you feel
Make the right calls, oh yeah
And just hope that she remembers you still
I'm searching for a good time
In a city where there's nobody else around
And I know it's been a little awhile
But your number is the only one I found
Now we've had our share of ups and downs
In the years I came through your town
But let's put it all to rest
And let's just have a night of one on one
When the conversations have begun
Just put your head on my chest
There's something about you, girl
And it's rather strange
I want come back to you, girl
And rekindle the flame
When the night falls, oh yeah
You can tell by the way that you feel
Make the right calls, oh yeah
And just hope that she remembers you still
Well you probably think I'm a fast-talking romantic
With a high-fallutin' ways
But it's all about the impression you made
On the first time I met you
That stayed with me for days
And now I want that feeling back
But I'm not sure where to get it
But you have the answer to that
And you say it's nothing but fun and games
But over the phone it's not the same
So let's try to cross paths
There's something about you, girl
And it's rather strange
I want come back to you, girl
And rekindle the flame
When the night falls, oh yeah
You can tell by the way that you feel
Make the right calls, oh yeah
And just hope that she remembers you still
Ooh hooh ooh hooh
Ooh hooh ooh hooh, yeah
When the night falls, oh yeah
You can tell by the way that you feel
Make the right calls, oh yeah
I should have known that you were in a situation
You got a man but is he loving you the right way?
I don't step in because I know my limitations
But I would really like to be with you tomorrow
Let me introduce myself I'm just a young boy
I never thought that I'd fall victim to a woman
She took my pride, she took my soul in my confusion
And it all started when she told me to come over
Ooh, ain't no doubt about it (girl)
Cuz you are on my mind
Way too much (much much much)
Ooh, ain't no doubt about it (girl)
Cuz you are on my mind
Way too much (much much much)
My momma told me about girls who hide emotions
She said that every single one's got an agenda
I gave no signals but you got the wrong impression
I guess i should've taken time to know you better
Ooh, ain't no doubt about it (girl)
Cuz you are on my mind
Way too much (much much much)
Ooh, ain't no doubt about it (girl)
Cuz you are on my mind
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
I said
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
I see you when the lights turn low
I want you more than anyone knows
These one of a kind
Thoughts all over my mind
And you don't know anything about it
It gives me such delight to watch you get in the mood
And you don't know anything about it
To treat you right, just right, and spend an evening
with you
And you don't know anything about it
I see you when the lights turn low
I want you more than anyone knows
These one of a kind
Thoughts all over my mind
And you don't know anything about it
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
I said
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
I see you when the lights turn low
I want you more than anyone knows
These one of a kind
Thoughts all over my mind
And you don't know anything about it
Looking out the window I can't help but stop and stare
This fine young woman's on the corner standing there
And, mmm, I start to wonder
Mmm, I wonder why
Would things be really different if I couldn't catch
her eye
Man, maybe I managed to act real cool
But she turned around and played me like a fool
A fool
See something in her mewl
Makes me scared to even try
That simply she's into another guy
That's why
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
I said
Ooooooooh
I'm waiting for you
we are back again, so tell a friend
its chromie, its chromie
its chromeo-o-o-o-oh
until the end, until the end

me and you, tell me what we're gonna do
no matter what i came here to do
no matter what you came here to say
we really ain't got nowhere to go
cause you're my tenderoni
cause you're my tenderoni
no matter what i came here to do
no matter what you came here to say
we really ain't got nowhere to go
cause you're my tenderoni
cause you're my tenderoni
you and i, baby we go side by side

cause you're my tenderoni
cause you're my tenderoni
you and i, baby we go side by side
me and you, tell me what we're gonna do
She's in control, she holds my soul
That wicked woman's got me by the balls
Nowhere to run, nowhere to go
Her love has got me at her beck and call
She's in control, she holds my soul
That wicked woman's acting out of line
She wants to fight, argues all the time
I try to run but there's nowhere to hide
I feel she takes me on a merry-go-round
When she's nice to me in front of her friends
But when they're gone and there's no one around
That's exactly when the madness begins
you always told me you wanted something more
i couldn't give you what you were looking for
is that a reason to stab me in the back?
now tell me baby what you think about that
is it revenge? is it a sin?
is that the way you treat your motherfuckin' friend?
i'm just saying, i do no wrong
i just like felt like writing this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
you say you're sorry, you say that you still care
deep down you're mad, you think i did my share
it's so unfair to put the blame on me
you made a mistake, now shorty can't you see?
are you just selfish? or do you wanna be free?
you have your ways and i can't tell you how to be
you have your morals and you know what's right from wrong
i just hope you hear the lyrics to this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
is it you? is it me?
is it worth the agony?
what do i do when i wake up?
how do i face reality?
another land, another friend
tell me when this is gonna end?
i can't go through another day,
thinking that we could fade away
you always told me you wanted something more
i couldn't give you what you were looking for
is that a reason to stab me in the back?
now tell me baby what you think about that
is it revenge? is it a sin?
is that the way you treat your motherfuckin' friend?
i'm just saying, i do no wrong
i just like felt like writing this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
well, i remember you
from a diff'rent occasion
and you remember me
you said i wasnt your kind
oh, but baby baby baby
i think we'd have a good time
you got that "savoir faire"
of a seasoned vet
i need a love affair
but i ain't seen nothing yet
see, we could go out
and i could fit the bill
but when we get home, girl
you know how you're gonna make me feel
oh, but baby baby baby
i think we'd have a good time
*synthesizer solo*
*clears throat*
your whole demeanor
is outta sight
you got me wonderin':
"would you come home with me tonight?"
that type of body
pictured it with no clothes
but when it went down, down, down, down, down
i guess i got scared, and i froze
oh, but baby baby baby
i think we'd have a good time
mmm, baby baby baby
i think we'd have a good time
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Baby girl you got me losing my cool
Ever since I started rolling with you
It's like you've got me opening up
I thought I'd be a Casanova
Ever since me and needy girl broke up
But now them lonely days are over
She's back and she's got me opening up (opening up)
She's got me crying at the movies
She's got me calling her after school (hello?)
I don't know what is going through me
'Cause I can't stop myself from acting like a fool
And I want it
And I need it
And my heart goes boom boom boom
Every time I feel it
I can't call it
Can't live without it
Tell me what numbers to down
'Cause I'm strung up for a while
She's got me opening up
Yeah
Baby girl you got me losing my cool
Ever since I started rolling with you
It's like you got me opening up
It's like you got me opening up
Don't take it as some kind of diss
I'm trying to be autonomous
But every time you're gone, I miss
Your type of touch, your type of kiss
I never thought I'd be monogamous
I guess that it is not a myth
I won't be having none of this
Calling Lovers Anonymous
Yeah
Baby girl you got me losing my cool
Ever since I started rolling with you
It's like you got me opening up
Laisse toi aller, ce soir on va danser (X2)

c'mon girl, don't make a fuss

and it doesn't really matter what we do
there's gotta be one good way to know
if all this is worth it
we can work it night by night
[chorus x2]
she says i'm not romantic
i say she's too dramatic
i tell her while we're at it
we can work it night by night
[p-thugg]
night by night

night by night
[verse]
i know, inside of me
if you wait a bit longer,
we'll see what's meant to be
c'mon girl, we can't be apart
that special kind of lovin'
reaches right to my heart
[bridge]
when we don't know which way to go
and it doesn't really matter what we do
there's gotta be one good way to know

[verse]
wanna be by yourself, and no one else
alright, a-a-a-a-alright
and you wanna go out, wanna scream and shout
tonight, t-t-t-t-tonight
you want some space, like "get outta my face"
alright, a-a-a-a-alright
and you want me back, put your life on track
tonight, t-t-t-t-tonight
[chorus]
you're a needy girl
i can tell when i look in your big brown eyes
you want my world
but how can i do yours if i can't do mine
i try to change
but somehow it's weird, i don't feel the same
it's all about
what you want, what you say, how you feel
how you play the game
[p-thugg]
you're a needy girl
and you want my world
i try to change
but it's not the same
*phone rings*
"hello? ...hey what's up, baby? ...yeah, i'm in the studio right now, i'll call you later. ...nah, i really can't talk right now, i'll just call you back alright. ...i-i can't talk right now, i'll just call you later! ...yo, what? y- i can't- look, yo whatever!"
*record scratching*
*synthesizer solo*
*bass solo*
[verse]
when you're home alone, you don't answer the phone
alright, a-a-a-a-alright
but it's like a crime, if i don't answer mine
tonight, t-t-t-t-tonight
so you found a man, and he's more than a friend
alright, a-a-a-a-alright
but you still call me, for some T.L.C.
tonight, t-t-t-t-tonight
[chorus]
you're a needy girl
i can tell when i look in your big brown eyes
you want my world
but how can i do yours if i can't do mine
i try to change
but somehow it's weird, i don't feel the same
it's all about
what you want, what you say, how you feel
how you play the game
[p-thugg]
you're a needy girl
and you want my world
i try to change
but it's not the same
Let's keep the screaming and the fighting and the
crying to a minimum.
And if the kitchen don't work, we can fight in the
living room.
You try to hurt me when you say you'll find another
date, that memories of me will fade away.
you try to hurt me and deny that i was an ok guy and
i'm just left here wondering why.
My girl is calling me a liar
My girl is calling me a jerk
you've got to realize
these word not being lies
I was not trying to hide the facts it's the truth
that's in disguise.
See what you fail to see is that this wasn't a fantasy.
but little by little all the things and the pressure
just got the best of me
And my girl is calling me a liar
My girl is calling me a jerk
[i should call P right now]
-She doesn't listen to a single word i say
P:Just give the girl some time and she will come around
your way.
-man, i aint got time to waste and i'm tired of fights
P: You've got to be patient with the woman of your life
-look i try to tell her but she's crossing me out
P:Just take her to the movies and you're gonna work it
-That's it?
P:Yeah
-Really? Allright then. Goodnight Pete.

There must be another way
When she's gone to a better place
And loneliness will hurt you if you can't get through
the night
Then the moment starts to fade
And dawn is just an hour away
I feel she's watching over and it gets me through the
night
It makes me wonder what you'd say
It's taking me back to the month of May
When I watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Another walk to take
Another lonesome evening spent without you there
And only those who hurt you
Will say patience is a virtue
And it's been so long
And I can't think about it
No, I can't figure it out
It's just the way you're feeling
Every time that you're appealing
Leaves no room for doubt
It makes me wonder what you'd say
It's taking me back to the month of may
When i watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on

Lemme tell you that i saw your boyfriend
Walkin' down the street
He was standin' all shaky
Hands all sweaty
And he could hardly speak
I might as well take a minute or two
To put you on some game
You got a boy like him
A man like me
And thats just not the same
I never mind an SMS
What you need is a sweet caress
Everybody wanna talk to much
But what you need is a special touch
Ooh girl wouldnt that feel right
A little dinner with your candlelight
And really when it comes down to it
Pick a man thats down to fight
I'll give you bonafide lovin'
Oh-oh-oh-oh
The type that makes me feel old
I'll give you bonafide lovin'
Oh-oh-oh-oh
The type that makes me feel old
[*guitar solo*]
[*synthesizer solo*]
Lemme tell you that I saw your boyfriend
Walkin down the road
He was standin all shook
He couldnt even look
And I was extra cold
I might as well take a minute or two
To talk about the perks
'Cause you cant compete with a man like me
And that's just how it works
Look, this comes as no surprise
What you need is an older guy
With a little bit of life experience
The right clothes and the right appearance
Ooh girl wouldnt that feel nice
Hot dinner with your candlelight
And really when it comes down to it
Pick a man thats down to fight
I'll give you bonafide lovin'
Oh-oh-oh-oh
The type that makes me feel old
I'll give you bonafide lovin'
Oh-oh-oh-oh
The type that makes me feel old

Something to say,
When you're so far away,
And everything flies right by,
Like a dream.
You're stuck in your tracks,
There's no turning back,
I wish I could pull you close,
Inside of me.
Girl if it's alright,
100%.
It's intellectual, I want to let you know,
I won't let you go until you say please.
How could you forget,
The way that we met,
The street corner lights on fire,
Like a dream.
And since you've been gone,
It's been to each his own,
We'll never be side by side,
Or so it seems.
Girl if it's alright,
100%.
It's intellectual, I want to let you know,
I won't let you go until you say please.
I know you've had enough
But now it's time to listen up
You say you got it rough
But you're keeping your anger bottled up
Our love is so unique
We never have the decency to speak
And it's been over a week
And you still won't tell me what you want from me
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
And I'm not asking for much
But just a little bit of clarity with us
'Cause if we can't be grown ups
Then we won't grow up
I know you've had enough
But now's the time to listen up
You say you got it rough
But you're keeping your anger bottled up
And something ain't right
When you're up and crying in the middle of the night
Two wrongs won't fix a fight
But if we get to talking we just might
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
And I'm not asking for much
But just a little bit of clarity with us
'Cause if we can't be grown ups
Then we won't grow up
Ooh, I guess I'm feeling alone again
Ooh, I guess I'm feeling alone again
Ooh, I guess I'm feeling alone again
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
A-aye-yo
Way-a-aye-yo
I'm not asking for much
But just a little bit of clarity with us
'Cause if we can't be grown ups
(Chorus)
Yay-yay-yay-yeah
Babygirl, you got me losing my cool
Ever since I started over with you
It's like you got me opening up
(verse)
I thought I'd be a Casa Nova
Ever since me and Needy Girl broke up
But now the lonely days are over
She's back 'cause she's got me opening up (Opening Up, Opening Up)
She's got me crying in the movies
She's got me calling her after school
I don't know what has got into me
'Cause I can't stop myself from acting like a fool
When I want it
When I need it
When my heart goes Boom Boom Boom
Everytime I feel it
I can't call it
Can't live without it
Tell me what number to dial
'Cause I've been strung out for a while
She's got me opening up
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Don't take it as some kind of diss
I'm trying to be an adonis
Everytime I'm gonna miss
Your type of touch, your type of kiss
I never thought I'd be annonymous
I guess that is not a myth
I won't be having none of this
Calling Lovers Annonymous
The sun's begin now to blind
It's the beginning of another day
You are so one of a kind
But he disappeared in disarray
You take a look at the time
And see how much longer you can wait
And you finally step outside
But everything is so blue and gray
It sucks when it bombs
On your way, just might be time to move on
When he's gone, believe me he's gone
But it won't last forever
Somebody will promise to be
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
Comes along more delight
And he's exactly what he promised to be
You can't believe it
He told you he was unlike the other guys
But little by little, he changed
And he proved to be otherwise
Leave alone, it's alright, girl
You always over-analyze
You're just going through a phase
It takes a moment to recognize
It sucks when it bombs
On your way, just might be time to move on
When he's gone, believe me he's gone
But it won't last forever
Somebody will promise to be
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
The right type
A knight in shining armor
Be the right type
Comes along more delight
And he's exactly what he promised to be
The sun's begin now to blind
Don't stop, baby
Let the rhythm take your body
Don't stop, baby
Let the music take control
Don't stop, baby
Let the rhythm take your body
Don't stop, baby
Let the music take control
I look around
Recognize anybody
Did you see the girl from the grocery store
Did you make a sound
Did you catch her eye
Did you let her know that you want some more
I tell her, lady
Why do you always frown and act all jaded
Woohoo ah wooh
I'm not contagious
But I got the kind of loving that knocks you down
I tell her, lady
Why do you always frown and act all jaded
Woohoo ah wooh
I'm not contagious
But I got the kind of loving that knocks you down
Down, down, down, down
You're often found like you walked a mile
Just to be with that girl that you seen before
But she won't come down
And you're in denial
So you got the courage to show her what's in store
I tell her, lady
Why do you always frown and act all jaded
Woohoo ah wooh
I'm not contagious
But I got the kind of loving that knocks you down
I tell her, lady
Why do you always frown and act all jaded
Woohoo ah wooh
I'm not contagious
But I got the kind of loving that knocks you down
Down, down, down, down
Don't stop, baby
Let the rhythm take your body
Don't stop, baby
Let the music take control
Don't stop, baby
Let the rhythm take your body
Don't stop, baby
Let the music take control
You tell her, lady
Why do you always frown and act all jaded
Woohoo ah wooh
I'm not contagious
But I got the kind of loving that knocks you down
I don't know what games you're tryin' to play
(Games you're tryin' to play)
You wanna look the other way
(Look the other way)
I'm talkin' 'bout the here and now
(The here, the now)
Keep my feet on solid ground
Well, I hate to break it to you
But you just don't realize
With your conversation topics
And you never compromise
I wanna express something to you
Something you ought to know
But you got the total logic
And refuse to let it go
You make it rough
(So rough)
For me to get through to you
(So rough)
To get my point across
I had enough
(Enough)
Of tryin' to get through to you
(So rough)
And gettin' no response
You make it rough
I'm feelin' slightly ill at ease
About your sensibilities
(Sensibilities)
And I've been getting nervous tics
Wondering if one word'll stick
You don't respond well to the pressure
That's something I've been warned about
(Something I've been warned about)
And I think of you as something lesser
When we can't sit and talk it out
Well, I hate to break it to you
But you just don't realize
With your conversation topics
And you never compromise
I wanna express something to you
Something you ought to know
But you got the total logic
And refuse to let it go
You make it rough
(So rough)
For me to get through to you
(So rough)
To get my point across
I had enough
(Enough)
Of tryin' to get through to you
(So rough)
And gettin' no response
The situation worsens
The words turned into curses
For certain, you got me
All tied up just like a circus
I can't make an assertion
Without you thinkin' it's hurtin'
I guess it's really time
To pull the curtains
You make it rough
You make it rough
(So rough)
For me to get through to you
(So rough)
To get my point across
(Enough)
Of tryin' to get through to you
(So rough)
And gettin' no response
You make it rough
(So rough)
For me to get through to you
(So rough)
To get my point across
I had enough
(Enough)
Of tryin' to get through to you
(So rough)
I'll say it one more time
And let you know what's on my mind
'Cause it's plain to see
That I love you with every beat of my heart
But it seems to me
That you lost your sense of mobility
Suddenly
We're back to where we were at the start
I wonder what made you cynical
And you decided it was time to go
But don't walk away
And leave me to stay
If you don't turn away
We could be lovers
I could never turn my back on something so deep
Something that was another part of me
'Cause obviously
I owe you every beat of my heart
But it better be
You cannot when we disagree
And it gonna mean
That emotions got us finally apart
I wonder what made you cynical
And you decided it was time to go
But don't walk away
Leave me to stay
If you don't turn away
We could be lovers
But don't walk away
Leave me to stay
If you don't turn away
We could be lovers
I wonder what made you cynical
And you decided it was time to go
But don't walk away
Leave me to stay
If you don't turn away
We could be lovers
But don't walk away
Leave me to stay
If you don't turn away
You're a hot mess
You act like you've got nothing to lose
But I've already lost my temper
I put my lovin' on the line for you, lady
But my spirit's were low
I would've committed a crime for you, baby
Yeah, it got outta control
But I know my temper's been kinda crazy
(I need somebody, I need someone)
Your love is real but I just feel suffocated
(I feel so lonely, I feel so numb)
I thought we had this conversation already
Do you really want to go through this all over again?
The way I was acting was just fine but then lately
You sort of noticed a shift
Everyday was Christmas time for you, lady
And you got showered with gifts
But you could hear it in my voice
That I was getting kind of aloof
And I don't really have a choice
I guess I gotta tell you the truth
But I know my temper's been kinda crazy
(I need somebody, I need someone)
Your love is real but I just feel suffocated
(I feel so lonely, I feel so numb)
I don't know what you want from me
I mean, I'm not a bloody social worker
But I know my temper's been kinda crazy
(I need somebody, I need someone)
Your love is real but I just feel suffocated
(I feel so lonely, I feel so numb)
What?
I need somebody, I need someone
This is the new sound
We came to get down
Our name is Chromeo
And we are in control
This is the new sound
We came to get down
Our name is Chromeo
And we are in control
Have you ever felt this way?
Felt the need to get away?
Well, I have
Yeah
When the world is out to get you
And your friends are all against you
And you're sad
So what do you say?
I want to get away
From the problems of the world today
Me and my man on a plane
Fly away to a better place
I want to get away
From the problems of the world today
Me and my man on a plane
Fly away to a better place
I want to
I need to
Fly away when they are out to get you
You want it
You need it
Look inside and you will find that feeling
My heart is made of stone
My soul is made of songs
My girl is on the phone
But I want to be left alone
This is the side of me
You think of irony
I wish you tried to see that I need someone to set me
free
I want to get away
From the problems of the world today
Me and my man on a plane
Fly away to a better place
This is the new sound
We came to get down
Our name is Chromeo
And we are in control
I want to get away
From the problems of the world today
Me and my man on a plane
