Kicked Around (G.Jones/C.Stanley)

I've been pulled to pieces, I've got an arm over here,
I've got a leg over there, I've got my ass somewhere upside down,
But I'm back, I'm here to tell you I'm back, better than before,
Can't keep a good thing down, uh-uh.

Well I've been kicked around, never thought that I could fall,
Thought that I was standing tall, turned out I was the ball,
And you know what, and I, and I, and I've been kicked around,
Baby after all, I took all the shots you called,
Turned out I was the ball, you kicked you pushed.

And I've been kicked around, and I've been upside down,
Oh I've been bounced around, kicked around,
I'm gonna get you, get you, your very momma will regret you,
I'm going to stomp and drag you to your knees,
Your very papa will forget you, kicked around.

Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been bounced around,
Let me tell you, I'm here to tell you,
You can get up, you can put all the pieces back together,
Yeah, don't let him stomp on you baby, get up now!
I said you made me feel so small, bouncing me against the wall,
Just like I was the ball, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh I, Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been kicked around,
Now look at me baby, (trips alone) paved the memories you gave me,
My eyes are open, eyes are open, now I can see,
You're nothing but a bad, bad memory,
I'm all together now, all together now,
I'm the biggest ball you ever did see, I'm gonna roll on you,
I'm gonna fall on you, I'm gonna stomp on you,
I'm gonna punch on you, I'm gonna choke on you,
I'm gonna rip you, drag you to your knees,
Your very papa will regret you!

No need to come begging to me, my heart is deaf to your plea,
The hurt you have planted has grown much in me,
I'm gonna lie to you, get away from me!
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I, Oh I've been kicked around,
And I've been upside down, been kicked around,
Yeah, here I am, I'm back, I'm all together,
Can't keep a good woman down, I'm big and tall,
Listen to me, just listen to me, just look at me,
I'm back, here I am, hear me coming....

Paper Plan (G. Jones / C. Stanley)

Don't need no ring, no wedding band,
We don't need no paper plan,
Just take my hand, for you're my man,
All we we need to understand,
The rules of love, are way beyond ordinary man,
We've got, marriage of the heart,
Nothing is going to keep us apart.

I know, I'll know whenever he needs me because,
I am sure that he knows that love is, love is the tie that binds,
Clear enough, so take my hand, our love is here to stay,
Love's insecure, yet we are sure, we don't need the paper play,
No book or rule should ever use emotion for a tool.

Marriage of the heart, marriage of the heart, no written page could tear us apart.

Oh I know that old rules are not the tools for a modern world,
Sign love on the line, sign love on the line.

When you found a way, love will stay from then until forever more,
Just take the hand of your man, that's all you need to understand,
The rules of love, are way beyond ordinary man.

Marriage of the heart, nothing is going to keep us apart.

I know, that I'll go wherever he needs me because,
I'm sure that he knows that love is, love is the tie binds,
I'll know, I'll go, I'm sure he needs me and that I'll go.

Crack Attack (G. Jones / C. Stanley)

You stand there, stutter, brains like butter,
You dissed your father, sister, your mother,
Times have tried too hard to your answer to give up instead of live up,
To the stance of a man, understand that I'm a right hand,
Five out of five will die, from crack and on my left the birth the same and the same birth (?),
The kid once did and now his death is echoed around the world for all to hear,
So let's have a merry new year
Yo Grace, school 'em.

They're lost now, taken over, crack attack,
They're lost now, taken over, crack attack,

There's a little boy who lives down the way,
I heard he's crazy from crack in his brain,
He's lost now, he's taken over, crack attack,
Lost now, taken over, crack attack,
Don't do it,cheap high,say no! (echoes).

Though I wonder who is to blame,
All this epidemic is driving me insane, all of it,
I see the kids dying in the streets,
Whoever makes one, they're going lose his way,
Lost know, taken over, crack attack,
They're lost now, taken over, crack attack.

Stuck in the middle, and don't know where to go,
They've got so now, they're living for the blow,
They get it babe, doing it for the thrill,
It's so insane, such danger for a thrill,
Lost now, they're taken over, crack attack,
Don't do it, cheap high, break the tie.

You can turn it over, you can take control,
you want your mind, your body and soul,
Don't you let crack put you in a hole,
You've done without and you can do it now.

Said crack attack, crack attack, crack attack,
Don't do it, say no!, give it up,
Lost now, lost now...lost now, taken over crack attack, crack attack,
Taken over, crack attack, crack attack,
Lost now...give it up, give it up, taken over.

Bulletproof Heart (G. Jones / C. Stanley)

You want to shoot me down?

I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

Shotgun, hit and run,
You've had your fun and you left me stung,
You took my heart for target practice,
and now I know that love shares no justice,

So I, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

Here is something you ought to know,
you better pack up and you better go now,
Don't mess with me, no playing around,
I'm going to stomp you straight in the. ground

'Cause I, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

Oh I, I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh I, I've got a bulletproof heart.

Finger on the trigger, ready to shoot,
I'm kicking you out, not sharing my loot,
I'm locking all my closets, I'm closing my legs,
No use for you to even stand there and beg.

'Cause I, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart.

'Cause I, I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart,
I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh I've got a bulletproof heart,
Oh I've got a bulletproof heart. [laughs....]

Aaaa, hey baby, where are you going baby?
Hey, want to give me a ride, got get to where I'm going real fast,
Ain't got no time to waste, thing here, I'm not about to stay here,
There are children on street, with no food to eat,
I seem them there, I said I got to get away,
I'm on my way.

I Gotta escape this poverty, I gotta find a new reality,
Don't try and stop me boy, I'm on my way,
So light me a cigarette, cruise in a plane,
Take a trip to Paris, maybe Spain, yeah,
Oh I've got to get there, take me away, I'm on my way,

You can stay, I'll leave you here,
You'd be a fool if you like what's here, hey,

I don't give a damn I'm heading south, hey,
I'm on my way, I'm on my way (ehoes),
I'm on my way,
I'm on my way.

Dream (G. Jones / C. Stanley)

Nothing comes during a sleep above a dream,
You better wake up and face reality,
You never get ahead just laying around in bed,
What you can see you really can achieve.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment though I wonder why,
You wake up out of the darkness and let life begin,
Oh dream means a sleepless fulfillment oh I wonder when,
Wake up out of the darkness and let life begin.

Some people are living only on hopes and dreams,
But you've got to wake up to the plans and scenes,
The journey of life is only one step ahead,
But you never get there tossing and turning in bed,
You're facing the world with no plans for tomorrow,
And now you're wondering what's waiting around the bend.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment unless you try,
Sleepers, they hold on t dreams while the world passes by,
Dream means a sleepless fulfillment (though) unless you try,
Sleepers, they hold on to dreams while the world passes by.

Dream means a sleepless fulfillment though I wonder why,
Sleepers hold on to dreams while the world passes by, one more time,
Dreams a sleepless fulfillment though unless you try,
Sleepers hold on to dreams.....

Seduction Surrender ((lyrics) Elias, Jones, Stanley) ((music) Elias, Lasarenko)

Way deep in the night, the voice of love is calling,
(So) clear is the darkness, that reflects your face,
Born out of love, locked in desire,
The heat from your fire, seduction,
Cries fill the dark, I feel your embrace,
Losing control, surrender!

Oh Oh, I hear love calling. Oh Oh the voice of love,
Hard is the flesh, soft is the night,
The rhythm of my heart beats like a drum,
The language of my body moves to a time,
The rhythm of desire like fire.

Oh Oh, I hear love calling, Oh Oh the voice of love,
Oh Oh, I can hear love calling, Oh Oh the voice of love,
I will be wrapped inside your love, I will be right within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
seduction surrender I'll always remember.

Locked inside your love, I will be right inside your love,
I will be wrapped within your love,
Seduction surrender, I'll always remember.

Oh Oh, I hear love calling, Oh Oh, the voice of love,
Oh Oh, I can hear love calling, Oh Oh the voice of love,
I will be wrapped inside your love, I will be right inside your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
seduction surrender I'll always remember.

Locked inside your love, I will be there within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
Seduction surrender I'll always remember,
Locked inside your love, I will be there within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love(echoes),
Seduction surrender I'll always remember.

Seduction,
Seduction!!!

Someone To Love (G.Jones/C.Stanley)

Darling I, I was a fool, Oh what a fool, I thought you were cool,
Now I'm a victim of things that you do,
I just wanted someone to love, so I became a victim of love.

Lonely nights, spent all alone by a lonesome telephone,
You never called, you'd never come,
I just wanted someone to love, so I became a victim for love.

Darling I, I was a fool and so you used me just like a clown,
Oh I just wanted someone to love, so I became a victim for love.

Mon cherie, j''etais une folle, completement conne, tu n'etais pas con.

je veux te baiser, tu le mal que tu m'as fait,
Oh I just wanted someone to love, so I became a victim for love.

Why did you let go? Why did I lose,
When did love slip away, I though we were always going to stay,
Oh baby, where were you when I needed you,
Oh I just wanted someone to love, so I became a victim of love.

Don't Cry Freedom (Chris Stanley)

How long before we see we have broken those chains,
.(?)...just like the bird that sings it in the dream baby we are born free,
Oh now, I wan't you to know now we are in charge of our own destiny,
Freedom is only but a state of mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.

Don't you cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Don't cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Don't cry freedom, it's a state of mind,
Oh..ooooh..cry..don't cry, don't cry...well well, well.

Freedom is only but a state of mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.
Yeah, Yeah,
Some of us get to dance on a dream,
Every day we pray to that which we cannot see,
Why is it so, so difficult to love that which we see?
Love for you and me.

Tell me now, do you like what you see?
Are those images forced upon us, reflections of you and me,
Don't you let them play upon your mind, you've got to leave them shackles behind.

.(?).I wan't you to know that, we are each other our own destiny,
Just like the bird that sings within the dreams, baby you are born free,
Oh yeah, every night oh now,
Don't you cry freedom, freedom, don't cry, don't cry oh now, freedom,
Don't you cry freedom, exercise your freedom it's a state of.., don't cry Freedom,
just like the bird that sings within the dream baby you are born free.
