Jitterbug [4X]

You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts
Jitterbug into my brain
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
But something's bugging you
Something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleepin' in my bed
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah)

You take the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same

'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on, baby, let's not fight
We'll go dancing, everything will be all right

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin'' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah, baby)

(Jitterbug)
(Jitterbug)

Cuddle up, baby, move in tight
We'll go dancing tomorrow night
It's cold out there, but it's warm in bed
They can dance, we'll stay home instead

(Jitterbug)

Wake me up before you go-go

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognise me
Well it's been a year
it doesn't surprise me
Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying
I love you I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

A crowded room
friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
and your soul of ice
My god I thought you were
someone to rely on
Me I guess I was a
shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover
with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but
you tore me apart
Now I found a real love
you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A face on a lover
with a fire in his heart
A man undercover
but you tore me apart

I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special

I feel so unsure
as I take your hand
And lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known
better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
the careless whispers
of a good friend
To the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is the all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known
better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Never without your love

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could
lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other
with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so
good together
We could have lived this
dance forever
But no one's gonna
dance with me
Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than
to cheat a friend
and waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone

What I did's so wrong
that you had to leave me alone

Every day it seems my smile's a little harder
And every day, I seem to laugh a little less
Living this way, it seems my sky's a little darker
You went away and left me lonely in success

(Can't you see I'm falling apart) (Repeat)
Can't you see what's happenin' to me

Take this hand and show my fingers where my heart is
Understand, you may just save me from despair
Watch this man, you'll see he can't stop what he has started
Take this hand, you'll see right now there's no-one there

(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
You laugh at me as I fall
(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
Just tell me, tell me, give me one good reason

Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But instead I watch you die

Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
Tell me why am I so blue.

I watch you breathe,
I cannot sleep,
I touch your hair,
I kiss your skin,
And hope the morning sun won't wake you too soon.
For when you wake,
And look at me,
You never know,
You just might see,
Another boy who crept in your room
Take your time
(that's what you told me)
Take your time
But I fell head first, and I just don't know what to do.

[Chorus]
Nothing looks the same in the light,
Only a fool like me would take to heart,
The things you said you meant last night.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
I'll keep my feet firm on the ground.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
There's danger in a stranger,
With a warm hand and a kiss so right.
Nothing looks the same in the light,
It's been a pleasure, see you around

I watch the sun,
Upon the sheets.
I hear a car,
Out on the street,
And gently pull you close, it's over too soon.
What can I do,
But wait and see,
Hold on to you,
Please stay with me,
Because you're the first, and I want to stay here with you.

[Chorus]

Hey sucker
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker
(Now there's nothing you can do)

Well I hadn't seen your face around town awhile,
So I greeted you, with a knowing smile,
When I saw that girl upon your arm,
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm.
I said "Soul Boy, let's hit the town!"
I said "Soul Boy, what's with the frown?"
But in return, all you could say was
"Hi George, meet my fiancee"

[Chorus]
Young guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!

Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker!
(Now there's nothing you can do.)

A married man? you're out of your head
Sleepless nights, on an H.P. bed
A daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If your happy with a nappy then you're in for fun.
But you're here
And you're there
Well there's guys like you just everywhere
Looking back on the good old days?
Well this young gun says caution pays!

[Chorus]

I remember when he such fun and everything was fine,
I remember when we use to have a good time,
Partners in crime.
Tell me that's all in the past and I will gladly walk away,
Tell me that you're happy now,
Turning my back
Nothing to say!

"Hey tell this jerk to take a hike,
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like"
"Well sugar he don't mean the things he said"
"Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red
We got plans to make, we got things to buy
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy"
"Hey shut up chick, that's a friend of mine,
Just watch your mouth babe, you're out of line"

Oh!

Get Back
Hands off
Go for it!
Get Back
Hands off
Go for it!

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
Come on, everybody!
Get on, with your party!
And don't let nobody say you're wrong.
O.k.
So you've lost control,
But they'll never steal your soul
No way!
That they're gonna spoil your fun.

Greedy men, in far off places,
Don't be afraid to show your faces.
We know what you've done is wrong,
But clap your hands, and sing along now!
Don't even bother, to let us know,
When you flick the switch and stop the show,
Because the party has begun,
And we'll still be dancing, as-you-run-now!

[Chorus]

Oh no, don't think that I'm not scared,
Oh no, don't think that I'm prepared.
I just take each day as it comes,
Because it may, it may,,
It may be the last one!
I know they don't care about me,
I ain't got no money, ain't a v.i.p.
And I know they don't care about you,
You may, as well, enjoy your life like I do!

[Chorus]

I watch you breathe,
I cannot sleep,
I touch your hair,
I kiss your skin,
And hope the morning sun won't wake you too soon.
For when you wake,
And look at me,
You never know,
You just might see,
Another boy who crept in your room
Take your time
(that's what you told me)

But I fell head first, and I just don't know what to do.

With a warm hand and a kiss so right.

And gently pull you close, it's over too soon.

I'm just a love machine
And I won't work for nobody but you,
I'm just a love machine,
A huggin', kissin' fiend.

I think it's high time you knew,
Whenever I think of you,
My mind blows a fuse.
When I look in you eyes,
My meter starts to rise, and I become confused.
My voltage regulator cools,
When I'm sitting next to you,
Electricity starts to flow,
And my indicator starts to glow, wo

Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wooo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah

I'm gentle as a lamb,
I'm not that hard to program,
There's no way that you can lose,
My chassis fits like a glove,
I've got a button for love,
That you have got-to-use.
If you look into my file,
I am sure you can find out how,
To turn me on just set my dial,
And let me love you for a little while, ooh

Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah

And I won't work for nobody but you.

Move it move it baby,
Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
And I can't stop this rhythm in my heart.
Move it move it baby,
Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
Without this beat my life would fall apart.

Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot,
Gotta make alot a money,
Gonna break your heart.
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot.
Gotta make a lot of money,
Gonna break your heart.

But I'm the only one with the key,
And that's me.

CHORUS

Sometimes,
You wake up in the morning with the bass line,
A Ray of Sunshine,
Sometimes,
You know today you're gonna have a good time,
And you're ready to go.

Move it move it baby,
Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
And I can't stop this rhythm in my heart.
Move it move it baby,

Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
Without this beat my life would fall apart.

Shuffle to the beat,
Gonna take a cut
There's money in your feet,
Gimme what you got.

Watch out boy,
(watch out boy)
Shuffle to the beat,
Gonna take a cut,
There's money in your feet,
Gonna stitch you up.

Any other boy that you see,
But not me.

(Repeat Chorus)

Turn the music up,
Turn the music up,
turn it up,
because it's all I've -
All that I've got.

Shuffle to the beat (etc.)

Woo-woo
Dear mummy, Dear Daddy,
You had plans forme, I was your only son.
And long before this baby boy could count to three,
You knew just what he would become.

Run along to school,
No child of mine grows up a fool,
Run along to school.

When you tried to tell me what to do,
I just shut my mouth and smiled at you,
One thing that I know for sure-

BAD BOYS
Stick together, never Sad Boys
GOOD GUYS
They made rules for fools, so get wise...

Dear Mummy, Dear Daddy,
Now I'm nineteen as you see,
I'm handsome, tall, and strong.
So what the hell gives you the right to look at me,
As if to say "Hell, what went wrong?"

Where were you last night?
You look as if you had a fight.
Where were you last night?

Well I think that you may just be right,
But don't try to keep me in tonight,
Because I'm big enough to break down the door.

BAD BOYS
Stick together, never Sad Boys
GOOD GUYS
They made rules for fools, so get wise...

Boys like you, are bad through and through.
Still, girls like me, always seem to be with you....

We can't help but worry,
You're in such a hurry,
Mixing with the wrong boys,
Playing with the wrong toys.
Easy girls,
And late nights,
Cigarettes, and love bites
Why do you have to be so cruel?
YOU'RE SUCH A FOOL

BAD BOYS
Stick together, never Sad Boys
GOOD GUYS
They made rules for fools, so get wise...

BAD BOYS
Stick together, never Sad Boys
GOOD GUYS
They made rules for fools, so get wise...

Somebody told me
for everything she wants
Is everything she sees
I guess I must have loved you
Because I said you were the
perfect girl for me
baby
And now I'm six months older
And everything you are and
everything you see
Is out of reach not good enough
I don't know what the hell
you want from me

Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
To give you money

Some people work for a living
Some people work fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me marriage was a
give and take
Well you show me you can take
you've got some
givin' to do
And now you tell me
that your having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy
if you want me to
But one step further and
my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
And how can it be good enough for two
I can't work any harder than I do

Somebody tell me
Why I work so hard for you
To give you money

Why do I do the things I do
Can you tell my why Yea
My god I don't even think
that I love you
don't you tell me
To give you money
To give you money

tell me

How could you settle
For a boy like me
When all I can see
Is the end of the week
All the things we sign
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
It's just a matter of time
My situation
Never changes
Walking in and out of that door
Like a stranger
For the wages
I give you all
You say you want more
And all I can see
Is the end of the week
All the things we sign
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time

Last Christmas

To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me
Well It's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying I love you
I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again

Maybe next year
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special

I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special

I'll give it to someone special
I gave you my heart

I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
you gave it away
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone

Jitterbug, jitterbug
You put the boom boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high, when you loving stars
You jitterbug into my brain
It goes bang bang bang till my feet do the same
But something's bugging you, something ain't right
My best fried told me what you did last night
You left me sleeping in my bed
I was dreaming, but I should've been with you instead

*Wake me up before you go go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yoyo
Wake me up before you go go
I don't wanna miss it, when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go go
'Cause I'm not planning on going solo
Wake me up before you go go, ha
Take me dancing tonight, I wanna hit that high

You take the grey skies out of my way
You make the sunshine brighter than Doris Day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beat per minute have never been the same
'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool
It makes my crazy when you act so cruel
So come on, baby, let's not fight
We'll go dancing, everything's will be all right

*Repeat

Yeah, yeah, baby,
Come now, baby, move in tight
We'll go dancing tomorrow night
It's cold our there, but it's warm in bed
They can dance, we'll stay home instead
