lyrics

We we get loose in the knees Jaybird legs While we tapping our feet Knock-kn-knocking our heads to the beat Chests are popping And our shoulders swing Woop! Woop! It’s a grand jubilee If the party’s too full Then we’ll move it to the street Don’t matter if it’s cold or if it’s heat We gonna get down with the friends we keep One two Buckle my Shoe is getting loose We’re dancing on the rooftop Three four Hit the floor Shake it all around And move it to the sound yeah We we get loose in the knees Jaybird legs While we tapping our feet Knock-kn-knocking our heads to the beat Chests are popping And our shoulders swing Woop! Woop! It’s a grand jubilee If the party’s too full Then we’ll move it to the street Don’t matter if it’s cold or if it’s heat We gonna get down with the friends we keep We greet the morning sun We have been having fun We greet the morning sun We have been having fun One two Buckle my Shoe is getting loose We’re dancing on the rooftop Three four Hit the floor Shake it all around And move it to the sound yeah

Flip flip flip flip the sound Set beats down and lay them under Riff riff riff riffs of mouth Spit the lighting, sing the thunder And while I’m writing mine I’m switching styles The genre’s sunder And as I rock this beat Pop!

Boy makes me wild Gets that thing and he gets that thinga-thinga Gets that thing and he gets that thing Gets that thing and he gets that thinga-thinga Gets that thing and he gets that thing And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he knows Cause I’m used to leading I like it when he takes the reigns He makes me misbehave When I make it happen Ah! Ah! I lay my pedals down He’s picking up my ground And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he know-ows And he knows and he knows He got got got another one Got another one We got on with it He got got got another one Got another one We got on with it He’s the one For me He’s got another thing comin’ Makes me weak And makes me wild A damsel bumpin’ He’s the one For me He’s got another thing comin’ Makes me weak And makes me wild A damsel bumpin’ He’s the one For me He’s got another thing comin’

Winter Coat 01:49
lyrics

Zipping up my winter coat – winter coat Cock the collar when the wind bl-blows Light a fire when the sun gets low Chemical change the wood to a glowing coal Have yourself a glass with us Slow it down and stop the rush Let’s cook a lovely meal and stuff Bring your friend because we got enough I can hear the waterfall a falling-falling Silhouettes of trees their branches glowing-glowing-glow Bababa bundle up and get in the car We’re gonna take a ride to the reservoir Though you can see your breath in the cold, black night Hands in our pockets and your shoulders up tight One layer, two layer drop drop drop Set it on down, leave it on the rock There ain’t no sidewalk, there ain’t no dock Run up to the edge – jump, jump don’t stop We we gonna dip this thang Night swim – HEY! What Night swim –HEY! We – we gonna dip this thang Night swim – HEY! What Night swim –HEY! Zipping up my winter coat winter coat Zip zipping up my winter coat Heading back into the door It’s time to get up out the cold Zipping up my winter coat winter coat Zip zipping up my winter coat I can hear the waterfall a falling-falling Time to get up out the cold

Get here Be part of this Throw out Chains that keep you From our Sweet sweet loving Boy you’ve got to be here with me We’ve got What they dream of You are What I wanted We’re here On this planet Boy let’s make some beauty of it I remember when I met you Two students in a coffee shop Reading the same text book I notice you, you notice me, our eyes lock Conversation was so easy Your eyes they were so sweet On the way back home I had this funny feeling biking down the street like God damn! Something it just feels so right I have this sneaking suspicion The boy’s gonna end up loving me and change my life Some come on Mister Right Stuff If you feel it too Let’s build a life together One plus one is so much greater than two Get here Be part of this Throw out Chains that keep you From our Sweet sweet loving Boy you’ve got to be here with me We’ve got What they dream of You are What I wanted We’re here On this planet Boy let’s make some beauty of it Boy I keep falling for ya, falling for ya, falling for ya Boy I keep falling for ya, falling for ya, falling for ya As we grow thick as thieves I get more in my life from the loving that you give me I’ve had some others But you’re so much stronger than my lovers before ya Falling on and on and on Said boy let’s makes some beauty of it Let’s go on and let’s be lovin’ Get here Be part of this Throw out Chains that keep you From our Sweet sweet loving Boy you’ve got to be here with me We’ve got What they dream of You are What I wanted We’re here On this planet Boy let’s make some beauty of it Boy let’s make some beauty of it Boy let’s make some beauty of it Boy let’s make some, make some, make some Make some, make some beauty of it
