I Can't Stop This Feeling I Got [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
-------------------------------

Dear Dad,
things didn't turn out quite like I wanted them 2
sometimes I feel like I'm gonna explode

Everybody wanna see u down 4 the count
but that ain't what being a real man's about
the brave and the bold hang around 4 the kill
so the bigger the hole, the bigger we fill it (fill it!)
they can hit us with all they got
but cha know what?
what?

I can't stop this feeling I got
I feel it right down 2 my toes
I can't stop this feeling I got
my body got 2 have it u know
I can't stop this feeling I got
I'll write a letter to the whole world
I can't stop this feeling I got
every man, woman, boy and girl

can't stop this feeling I got, I can't stop this feeling I got
I can't stop this feeling I got, I can't stop this feeling I got

I can't stop this feeling I got
u know I can't sleep at night
I can't stop, u know I love it a lot,
I'm talking about an everlasting light.
I can't stop this feeling I got
I get to shaking all in my shoes
I can't stop this feeling I got
the doctor say there's nothing that he can do

can't stop this feeling I got, can't stop this feeling I got
I can't stop this feeling I got, can't stop this feeling I got
keep on singing now

can't stop. try 2 tell me how 2 paint my palace,
that ain't where it's at,
that's like trying 2 tell Columbus that the world is flat.
If the song we're singing truely is the best
then that my brothers is the ultimate test
All in favor say Aye.
We can change anything at all.

I, I, I can't stop. can't stop.
I'm in a butt kicking mood tonight ya'll
can't stop. can't stop.
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
can't stop this feeling I got
(no, no, no, no)
Feeling, feeling, feeling, hey!
Hey, pardon me 4 living, (pardon me 4 living)
but this is my world, (this is my world)
u can't make me change (u can't make me change)
maybe we all got to rearrange (rearrange)
our brains (our brains)

Yeah. Only we can change the world
only we can change the world
only we can change the world

1, 2, 1, 2, 3
I can't stop this feeling I got
I can't stop this feeling I got
I can't stop this feeling I got
feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, yeah!
yeah!

New Power Generation [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
--------------------

Lay down your funky weapon.
Yeah y'all, here we go
pumpin' the big noise in the 90's.

Pardon me 4 living, but this is my world 2
I can't help that what's cool to us might be strange to u
Pardon me 4 breathing, can we borrow some of your air?
the problem with u and your kind is that u don't know love is there

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor
making love and music's the only things worth fighting 4.
We r the new power generation, we want 2 change the world.
The only thing that's in our way is u.
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas,
we're sick and tired of u telling us what 2 do.

Pardon me 4 thinking, but there's something under my hair
I bet u thought the lights were on but noone's living there
U think that if u tell enough lies they will see the truth?
I hope they bury your old ideas the same time they bury u

We r the new, We r the new, We r the new,
making love and music
new power, we stand

Pardon us for caring, we didn't know it was against the rules (shout it out)
if we only want to love one another
then tell me now who's the fool (tell me, tell me)
no father, no mother, no sister, no brother, nobody can make me stop
said if u didn't come 2 party child, I think u better get up offa my block.

[chorus repeated with this sung over it]
go on and get up offa my block
get up offa my block, because
love is there if you'd just open up 2 it.
if you'd just believe your whole world would change

New power generation, you've got to rearrange. We've got
we r the new power generation, you've gotta give up all the fight
we gotta try 2 love one another, baby. we r the new power generation
we r the new power generation.
we r the new power generation.

All of the questions in my life will be answered

Elephants and Flowers [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
---------------------

Boy is lonely on a burning hot summer night
he's looking 4 some action, he's looking 4 a fight
he's looking 4 a saviour in a city full of fools
maybe he just needs a good talker to give him a good talking 2.
Can we talk baby? Strip down, strip down.
I think I'm gonna fall in love tonight.

Elephants and flowers, hot sweaty light paints a picture red and gold
on a crowd of naked bodies stripped down to their very souls
how can he find a shy angel in a city so bold (so bold)
he can't even find a place 2 dance, this is rock and roll.
Strip down, strip down, elephants and flowers
Is everybody ready? Here we go.

love the one who is love, (love) the one who gives us the power, (power)
the one who made everything, (what?) elephants and flowers (what will he do?)
the one who will listen when all others will not.
there will be peace 4 those who love god a lot.

Elephants and flowers. Strip down. Think I'm gonna fall in love tonight.
When I do, there won't be no more (confusion)
There won't be no more (no tears)
there won't be no more enemies, so that eliminates all the fear
and there won't be no sorrow, (sorrow)
there won't be no pain, (no pain)

Is the truth really there? Or is it right under our hair?
4 all we know it's been there all the time.

I say, nothing comes from dreamers but dreams
I say, sitting idle in our boat while everyone else is down the stream
Nothing comes from talkers but sound
We can talk all we want 2, but the world still goes around and round.
Round and round. We go round and round and round.
And what we're looking 4 still isn't found

Can u tell me when we gonna get 2 it.
I'm tired of fooling around I said I wanna do it. (go 4 it, get 2 it)

Round and round (get get get get 2 it, go 4 it, get 2 it)

1 day I'll make a play and she will say ok
'cause I plan 2 be a cool kitty

Round and Round.
I say, nothing comes from dreamers but dreams
I say, sitting idle in our boat while everyone else is down the stream
Nothing comes from talkers but sound
We can talk all we want 2, but the world still goes around and round.
Round and round. We go round and round and round.
And what we're looking 4 still isn't found
Round and round we go. Round and round we go.
Round and round and round and round and round and round we go.
Round and round, round and round,

-----------

Jump 'em and funk 'em, pump 'em and funk 'em

Every time I could, I would compilment u on the things,

U know the Kama Sutra? I could re-write it with half as many words

But I'm scared, 'cause if I don't kiss ya, I'm gonna go mad baby
take off my clothes. We can funk

I'm testing postive 4 the funk

(Sex) Sex between 2 people is alright
if all the love in the world is what they got

Yeah, if u want 2 go 4 or 5, baby that's alright with me

Yeah, people tell me I got no taste
Then blow the candle out, let's see if it's true

We be funkin' over here, and over there ain't shit
We be funkin' over here, and over there ain't shit

Joy in Repetition [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
-----------------

{crowd noise same as for "Alphabet Street"}

He like to frequent this club down up on 36th
Pimps and thangs like 2 hang outside and cuss for kicks

Talking 2 no one in particular, they say "the baddest I am tonight"
4 letter words are seldom heard with such dignity and bite.
All the poets and the part time singers always hang inside
live music from a band plays a song called "Soul Psychodelicide".
The song's a year long and had been playing 4 months when he
walked into the place.
No one seemed to care, an introverted this-is-it look on most of their faces.
Up on the mic repeating 2 words, over and over again
was this woman he had never noticed before he lost himself in the
articulated manner in which she said them.
These 2 words, a little bit behind the beat.
I mean just enough 2 turn u on.
4 everytime she said the words another one of his doubts were gone.

Should he try 2 rap with her? Should he stand and stare?
No one else was watching her, she didn't seem 2 care.
So over and over, she said the words til he could take no more, (no more)
he dragged her from the stage and together they ran through the back door
In the alley over by the curb he said tell me what's your name
she only said the words again and it started to rain (rain, rain, rain)
2 words falling between the drops and the moans of his condition
holding someone is truly believing there's joy in repetition.
There's joy in repetition.
There's joy in repetition.
There's joy in repetition.
There's joy in repetition.
She said love me, love me, what she say?
she say love me, love me.
Joy, why don't u love me baby, joy, why can't u love me baby
joy, come on and love me baby, joy in repetition
Alright, joy in repetition,
Alright, joy in repetition,
Alright, joy in repetition,
Alright, joy, all my wishes add up to one
Love me, joy, Love me, joy, Love me, joy
Love me, Love me, joy, joy, joy in repetition
joy, joy in repetition,
joy, joy (love me) in repetition,
Love me, love, joy, joy, joy in repetition
joy, and I'm gonna say it again, joy, joy, and I'm gonna say it again,
joy, I'd like 2 go way up high and say, Love me, joy
I'll say Love me, joy
Joy, joy in repetition, joy in repetition
There's joy in repetition

Love Machine [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
------------

Love machine, yeah. Hey, yeah.

I've got the toys, 2 turn your body out
I've got the noise, 2 make u scream and shout
The love machine will take your body higher
'cause if it don't then I know u're a liar

Don't lie, u want some love that will make u cry
17 tongues licking from the neck down moving in a quickspeed circular motion
round and round, I said it round and round,

I've got the toys, 2 turn your body out
I've got the noise, 2 make u scream and shout
The love machine will take your body higher

Love machine. Don't bathe.
The love machine cleanses with a little faith
like a car wash spitting out soap and oil

Turning in your body's, psyche, dial a perfume that u like,
the love machine will put it on u right.

I've got the toys, 2 turn your body out (think I don't)
I've got the noise, 2 make u scream and shout
The love machine will take your body higher
'cause if it don't then I know u're a liar

Hey yeah, What time it is, love machine

Over your climax and over mine,
the harder u come, the longer the time, (time)
the longer the time, (higher) the longer the time,
the longer the time, the longer the time, the longer the time it takes
love machine, the love machine.

Are u playing the part of a shadow? (I am not.)
Or are your inhibitions gone? (They are.)
Are u afraid of the love machine? (love machine) (Hell no)
Or will u let it drink u till dawn, drink u till dawn.

I've got the toys, 2 turn your body out
I've got the noise, 2 make u scream and shout (the love machine)

Still Would Stand All Time [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
--------------------------

It's just around the corner, it's just around the block
vthis love that I've been waiting for, a Love solid as rock
A Love that reaffirms that we R not alone
A Love so bright inside U it glows
and night and day would run together, and all things would b fine
still would stand all hate around us
still would stand all time
still would stand all time

it's not a thousand years away, it's not that far my brother
when men will fight injustice instead of one another
its not that far if we all say yes and only try
then Heaven on Earth we will find

(all time)
(still, still would stand all time)

no one man will be ruler, therefore love must rule us all
dishonesty, anger, fear, jealousy and greed will fall
Love can save us all

Oh, love, Love, oh Love if U would just please give us a sign
Still would stand all time
Heaven, heaven on Earth we all want 2 find (we all want 2 find it)
Still (still) would stand all time

we R not alone people (we're not alone)
tell me can U see the light (can ya see the light)
if U just open your eyes (still would stand all time)
so much U will know, so much U will show
Love, Love, its not that far away if we all say yes and give it a try
(Got ta give it...a try...yes!) still would stand all time (I say still)
(so many times) so may times, i thought i could not make it
(still would stand all time)
life was closing in I just knew, I just knew I couldn't take it
that's when Love opened it's arms, and if U dont go in child
Still would stand all time (still would stand all time)
U better run to the light, leave your past behind
all things will be fine
Still would stand all time

New Power Generation (pt ii) [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1991]
----------------------------
(we r the new power generation)
Don't pick my apples, don't pick my peaches
(we r the new power generation)
leave my tree alone...leave it alone...leave it alone
(we r the new power generation)
Don't u look at me
(we r the new power generation)
If you're sad and u know it and u think u want to blow it
let your feelings out, love is there

Just go!

Kid! Yo Kid!
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
