JUMP JUMP |
THE JAM WAS MOVING |

Wearing stripes, arms up high, as tall as can be,
nothing more than a frozen smile to see.
In the cage he'll defy all that's logical.
Under lights, stay up all night with his formula.
In the grip in the step of potential rage.
Oh it's hip, formulated to fascinate.
If you do it like this: Jump! Jump!
Do it like this: Jump! Jump!
She moves faster than any eye can see,
moving parts that aren't moved normally.
In the haze what it isn't is what you see.
On and off, up and down, like a yo yo string.
Try to do it like this: Jump! Jump!
No, no, like this: Jump! Jump!
Do it for a kiss: Jump! Jump!
Do it like this: Jump! Jump!
They shine, we shield our eyes to see what is the dazzling and the enchanted.
They whine "come closer to me".
That is the dizzying, the dancing sorcery.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump jump.
Whoa whoa, my little doggie, he does a trick.
Ruff ruff!
He went to school to learn how to sit.
We were excited, delighted having fun.
As we decended the exit, got off the bus,
we got friends, we got fans now, and this is proof.
Can you tell me why that guy is on the roof?
Oh ho, do it like this: Jump! Jump!
Try it like this: Jump! Jump!
Do it more like this: Jump! Jump!
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump.
Jump little doggie. Do what she say. Jump jump.

CHROME |
SURRENDER |
|
|
Lovely flower changing colors like chameleons changed to wood.
Falling, coiling chain wrapped round and round strong links between us.
Matching layers along my dress becoming an accessory.
You won't see the dress or the chameleon.
Lovely flower changing colors like chameleons changed into wine.

Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't surrender.
Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't.
Before I surrender my love to you I'd rather lie down in the street and get hit by a big Mack truck.
Surrender my love to you?
I'd rather sleep in a lion's den. Maybe then I'll have better luck.
I get so mad thinking of the chance you had.
You had my love, but you didn't want it then.
So now before I give you my love I'll need a better excuse to take that abuse again.
Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't surrender.
Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't.
Before I surrender my love to you I'd rather jump into the sea and be eaten by a big fat shark.
Surrender my love to you?
Like a hunter you never miss your mark.
I think this time you are gonna find you want my love, you'll have to take it.
So now come on and shoot your best shot.
Come on, give me all you got.
Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't surrender.
Surrender my love to you? Oh no. I won't.

BACKFIRED |
NOW I KNOW I KNOW |
|
|
Backfired. Your plan, your plan backfired.
Backfired. My man, your plan backfired in your face.
You came into my life to test me.
Your diplomatic drag depressed me.
The glitter in your eyes undressed me.
You were polished slick. Really thick.
Wasting time dropping lines like "I could get you into movies".
But we would up at HoJo's for hamburgers to go!
Backfired. Your plan backfired.
Backfired. My man, your plan backfired in your face.
To steal my mind was your objective.
The way you spoke was too aggresive.
The silly jokes were not impressive.
Like "a traveling salesman met...", "farmer with three daughters", yet!
All the quips were so suggestive.
Then we ran down to HoJo's for hamburgers to go!
Backfired. Your plan backfired.
Backfired. My man, your plan backfired in your face.
Well, come here my little dear, I've got what it takes.
Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break.
Well, don't slip on your lips cuz you're talking so fast.
Buying for first, crying for last.
Well come on my little lady, don't shoot me down.
I've got strong connections all over town.
Just drop to a dead stop.
What?
Backfired. Your plan backfired.
Backfired. My man, your plan backfired in your face.
You were polished slick. Really thick.
Wasting time dropping lines.
Backfired.
"A traveling salesman met...", "a farmer with three daughters", yet!
Backfired.
Backfired.
Your plan backfired.
Couldn't work out no...
Backfired.
My man, your plan backfired in your face.
It backfired.
Backfired.
Your plan just backfired.
Oh no, it couldn't work out, backfired.
Better get a new line and try it again.
Slick performance on demand.
Backfired.
You better back up fast and head out west.
You may still collect.
Backfired.
It backfired.
Your plan backfired.
Too bad...
Backfired.
My man, your plan backfired.
Well, come here my little dear, I've got what it takes.
Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break.
Well, don't slip on your lips cuz you're talking so fast.
Buying for first, crying for last.
Well come on my little lady, don't shoot me down.
I've got strong connections all over town.
Just drop to a dead stop.

Now I know you know I tried to love you so and now I have to go.
You sound so inspiring when you pledged your support, but I've learned how to read right between the lines and see into
your thoughts.
The game that you're playing - you know you almost had a win, but I had a hunch of my own, you see, and followed it to
the end.
Now I don't have hard feelings against you.
You only did what you had to do.
But the time has come to let you know I know about the loving show.
Now I know you know how I tried to love you so and now I have to go.
I've said that my music will play second love to none, but you haven't learned to love yourself, you had to be the only
one.
The way that I feel, I really want you to succeed, so I don't understand why you simply can't recognize my needs.
Well, I don't have hard feelings against you.
I guess you only did what you had to do, but the time has come to let you know I know about the loving show.
Now I know you know how I tried to love you so and now I have to go.
Now I know you know how I tried to love you so and now I have to go.
I got a right to live and be in love with music, so fancy free.

UNDER ARREST |
MILITARY RAP |
|
|
The name on the list didn't fit the ID.
Following clues.
You can't hide homicide.
They answer the phone, tell me they're not at home.
I'm doing my best to tell you what I know.
Meet me in an hour.
I'll be on the corner.
I'll have on a trenchcoat, naturally.
You cannot avoid me.
I can be annoying.
When you least expect it - "answer the question now!"
Why inspector?
He's a fine detective.
Got his own perspective.
He's a lie detector.
Oh Heaven knows. Backtracking clues or any news on the scene.
In the right mood, sticking to my routine.
In dark day and night I'm like a machine.
It was someone he knew.
He let em in.
He got caught by a dirty doublecrosser capable of murder.
He's gonna be uncovered finally.
It's a full investigation and I'm very patient, working out the puzzle carefully.
You don't have to worry.
It could be scary.
Either "Hit me Harry" or a coronary.
Oh Heaven knows.
The face and the name didn't fit the ID.
The time and the place in evidence don't exist.
They wanna confess, and be blessed by the rope.
Hot on the scent finding only dead ends.
Now, the killer's out there.
Thinks he got away clear.
But he's not so clever.
He's going to the devil.
I'm setting up a rumour.
He's gonna walk into it, before he knows what happened.
I'm gonna grab him - tell me.
Why'd ya do it?
You're a pretty stupid jerk to try the heavy stuff.
You think your pretty tough.
Whoa, homicide.
You're under arrest, you're under arrest.
You're under arrest, you're under arrest.
Why'd ya do it?
You're pretty stupid.
The heavy stuff.
You're very tough.
You're under arrest.

Alright you maggots!
Get it up!
Do you love me?
I can't hear you!
Pick em up and put em down.
You're in the army now.
We'll make a man of you and then a soldier too.
Shoulders back and stomach in.
We'll teach you discipline.
Mother's sons and father's daughters - shut it up and follow orders.
Study up on weaponry.
The M-16, the M-15.
Sammy knows the enemy.
Flim flam big slam tell the major what you see.
Hut hut hut hut!
Ayattolah rock the house.
(?) with Minnie Mouse.
Donald Duck is going red.
Goofy's working for the feds.
8 ball in the side pocket.
I just shot my last rocket!
I'm coming back!
They're on my tail!
Aren't you glad I escaped from jail?
Bangkok rocks!
Bangkok rocks!
Girls on the strip.
It's a one way trip.
Bangkok rocks!
Patpong, Patpong, Patpong.
Bangkok rocks!
Soldiers dine for free.
Nato's up a tree.
Tours at 9 and 3!
Go now, pray later.
It's a lay-away plan!
Free vacation in Iran!
Stop and see the middle east.
Miles and miles of lovely beach.
Get that Coppertone tan on radioactive sand.
Those at home just got a directive.
All report to the neighborhood collective.
10 hours a day making makeup so the girls at the front can be more attractive.
If I die on the Russian front, bury me with Russian mud.
If they drop us in the East, (?).

INNER CITY SPILLOVER |
OASIS |
|

Lying in her bed a brick fell on her head.
Plaster finally crumbled and dropped it's load.
Oh oh.
Now the building was condemned.
Recycled, used again.
The brick that smashed her brain is now a road in Maine.
When the pressure is way way down, the water comes out brown.
It was on television they took her brain uptown.
Fearing (peace?) would poison her, some abstract modern saint.
A painting or a sculpture or a cultural restraint.
Inner City Spillover.
Where the big time ticks.
Royal Rose's ovens, have to warm, what the furnace skips.
Inner City Spillover.
Pop the scene.
Inner City Spillover.
Isle of dreams.
Inner City Spillover.
Workmen on the beam.
Lying on her bed a brick fell on her head.
You find the ace of hearts and win.
It's easy man!
At a higher school of knowledge, they put her brain in college.
Replacement parts and slippery cards will come around again.
The writings on the wall.
Statesmen say it all.
With the art wars on and the colors crash long long before the fall.
One out of these three cards will definitely up the odds.
Find the red heart, red to win.
Drop on in.
Time out and time in all the suckers play it again by the Broadway Babies and the island men and the hotshots gamblin'.
Inner City Spillover.
Pops and picks.
Inner City Spillover.
Where the big time ticks.
Inner City Spillover.
Isle of dreams.
Inner City Spillover.
Workmen on the beam.
Inner City Spillover.
Subway riders fight.
Newsmen uncover more horrors to describe.
Ok sweetheart, pull over, where'd you learn to drive?.
Angels eye the people over, ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai!.
Inner City Spillover.
Where the big time ticks.
Royal Rose's ovens, have to warm, what the furnace skips.
Inner City Spillover.
Pop the scene.
Inner City Spillover.
Workmen on the beam.

How many times have you heard, how many times did you say
"I think I'm going crazy! You're driving me out of my mind!"?
We know it's just an expression, a silly little phrase.
Not the doorbell, not a bird call .
Koo Koo.
How do you drive someone crazy?
To where?
In what kind of car?
Maybe we find a road map.
I'm sure it's not very far.
We know it's not so serious.
We take it all in fun.
Answer the ding dong, do you play ping pong?
Could you?
Trying to get your attention.
Did someone say earth's calling you?
Don't say it, don't ever mention, you're hearing more voices than two.
Roasted or raw delicious!
Freeze dried or salted divine!
Was that a...
Are you a...
are you?
Storms have rearranged the sand millions of years up til now.
Crusaders on a never ending search die for a never ending thirst.
What a fine perforformance, oasis!
Well worth the standing ovation.
Not a mirage.
Not camoflouge to you.
