Jamiroquai Album

Yeah, yeah
Have you heard the news today?
People right across the world,
Are pledging they will play the game,
Victims of a modern world,
Circumstance has brought us here,
Armageddon's come too near,
Too, too near, now
Foresight is the only key
To save our children's destiny,
The consequences are so grave
So, so grave, now
The hypocrites we are their slaves.
So my friends to stop the end
On each other we depend,
Oh we depend.
Mountain high and river deep,
Stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep.
Oh people,
Stop it going on,
Yeah, yeah
Have you heard the news today?
Money's on the menu in my favourite restaurant,
Now don't talk about quantity,
There's no fish let in the sea.
Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was,
And you'd better play it natures way,
Or she will take it all away,
Don't try and tell me you know more than her about right from wrong,
Now you've upset the balance, man,
Done the only thing you can,
Now my life is in your hands,
Moutain high and river deep.
Oh yeah
Stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep.
Oh people,
Stop it going on,
Moutain high and river deep.
Oh yeah
Stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep.
Oh people,
Stop it going on,
Greedy men will fade away,
When we stop it going on,
I know it's got to be that way,
Oh people,
Stop it going on,
I'm asking, Oh
When you gonna learn
To stop it going on?
When you gonna learn
To stop it going on?
When you gonna learn
To stop it going on?

Everybody
Don't want no war,
'Cos we're too young to die,
So many people,
All around the world,
Seen their brothers fry.
What's the motive?
In your madness.
You've made my people cry.
So politicians this time
Keep your distance.
'Cos we're too young to die.
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,

What's the answer?
To our problems.
I think we've gone too high,
Little children,
Never said a word now,
But still they have to die.
It won't be long.
Dancing like we do now,
To put this sad world right.
So don't you worry,
Suffer no more,
'Cos we're too young to die.
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,
You know we're too young to die,

All gone when they drop the bomb.
Can the politicians reassure?
'Cos here I am presuming that
Nobody wants a war
There's so many people praying
Just to find out if they're staying.
But lately stately governments
And disillusioned leaders,
So full of empty promises
But rarely do they feed us.
Put our backs against the wall,
Or don't we count at all?

Can you decide,
Are you mesmerised.
Do you know which side you're standing?
Cos when it falls gonna take us all.
Gotta know what we're demanding,
I never lie,
Can't your hear the cry,
Coming from on high,
WE'RE TOO YOUNG TO DIE.

Oh oh yeah
Don't you know,
That now you blow my mind
Honey,
You're sweeter
Than anything, I need you
Want to get closer to you
I want you get closer to you now
Love ya
I need ya
I think I wanna squeeze ya
Nightly,
So tightly,
Girl you know you really blow my mind

Say it again,
Just one more time
I've got to know,
How you came to blow my mind
Closer

Pleasure, passion
Tonite's the night I'm looking for your action
I want to hold you,
Don't you know now you blow my mind
Say it again,
Just one more time
I've got to know,
How you came to blow my mind
Closer,

Fever, hot now,
Help me wipe the sweat away from my brow,
Sexy
Oh lady,
Don't you know this time you blow my mind

Oh don't you know yeah,
Don't you know by now that now you blow my mind
Oh yes you do
Oh yes you do
Oh yes you blow my mind

The kids need education,
And the streets are never clean,
I've seen, a certain disposition, prevailing in the wind,
Sweet change, if anybody's listening?
Emergency on planet earth.
Is that life that I am witnessing,
Or just another wasted birth.

Now, we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Now, we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth

Think we're standing for injustice,
White gets two and black gets five years,
Took me quite a while to suss this,
But now I know my head is cleared
And a little boy in hungry land, is just a picture in the news,
Won't see him in that TV advertising, 'cause it might put you off your food

Now, we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth
Now, we got emergency
Oh, we got emergency on planet Earth

Everything is good
And brown
On I'm here again
With a sunshine smile upon my face
My friends
Are close at hand
And all my inhibitions
Have disappeared without a trace
I'm glad
I found
Somebody who I can rely on.

This is the return
Of the space cowboy
Inter-planetary
Good vibe zone
At the speed of Cheeba
We'll go deeper
Maybe I'll have to get high
Just to get by.

Everything is good
And green
Oh, I'm red again
And I don't suppose I'm coming down
I can see clearly now,
High in the sky
A man with psychedelic picture frames
Of happiness to shade
His eyes
He's glad
That the found
Somebody who
He can rely on.

Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It's a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big that should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, its a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -

Futures made of virtual insanity now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
Hard to know where to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother, can choose the colour
Of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Waoh - it's so insane
To synthesize another strain
There's something in these
Futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Now there is no sound
If we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad.
I know yeah

Of this virtual insanity, we're livin in.
Has got to change, yeah
Things, will never be the same.
And I can't go on
While we're livin' in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world, has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual.
Virtual insanity that we're livin' in, that we're livin' in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual Insanity is what we're living in

I must've died and gone to heaven
Cos it was a quarter past eleven
On a Saturday in 1999
Right across from where I'm standing
On the dance floor she was landing
It was clear that she was from another time
Like some baby Barbarella
With the stars as her umbrella
She asked me if I'd like to magnetise
Do I have to go star-trekking
Cos it's you I should be checking
So she lazer beamed me with her cosmic eyes

She's just a cosmic girl
From another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world
Putting me in ecstasy
Transmitting on my frequency
She's cosmic

I'm scanning all my radars
We'll she said she's from a quasar
Forty thousand million light years away
It's a distant solar system
I tried to phone but they don't list 'em
So I asked her for a number all the same
She said, step in my transporter
So I can teleport ya
All around my heavenly body
This could be a close encounter
I should take care not to flounder
Sends me into hyperspace, when I see her pretty face

She's just a cosmic girl
From another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world
Putting me in ecstasy
Transmitting on my frequency
She's cosmic
Sends me into hyperspace when I see her pretty face
Sends me into hyperspace when I see her pretty face...

She's just a cosmic girl
From another galaxy
Transmitting on my frequency yeah cosmic, oh
Can't you be my cosmic woman?
I need you, I want you to be my cosmic girl
For the rest of time

I need your love,
I need your love...
You, give me light
So tonight, take me there
I, feel your sun
Start to glow and I know it
Let me show you that
I want your love
I need your touch
For the rest, of our time together,
Baby, come fly with me, eternally
You and me,
We were meant to be

Yeah hey
Alright (right now)
We'll spend the night together
Wake up and live forever
Yeah hey
Alright (right now)
We'll spend the night together
Wake up and live forever

I see your eyes,
Hold the key, to my paradise
Summer in your smile
Well it makes me feel, so real
You tell me things
And my heart sings to the world,
From islands in the sky
Take my hand
As one we will stand
You know it's never never
To say hello to forever

Yeah hey
Alright (right now)
We'll spend the night together
Wake up and live forever

I need your touch,
I want your love so much
I need your touch &
I want your love, so much
Oh now, tonight,
We'll spend the night together
Wake up and live forever

You don't need your name in bright lights
You're a rock star
And some tin foil with a glass pipe
Is your guitar - now yes it is
Little Angela
Suffers delusions
From these high times
She's been cleaning up, since she was fourteen
On the main line
And her hunky funky junky, of a boyfriend
Got her on late nights, with her skirt tight
Woah, she's a wild thing
Letting it all swing
God bless our high times

Don't you know that last night
Turned to daylight
And a minute, became a day
Last night (last night)
All my troubles
Well they seemed so, so far away
Searching my reflection
For a glimpse of, another me
I've got to get away from all these high high times
'Cause these high times are killing me

Now high times go on and on and on
High times rock your mind yeah

This twisted crystal Kingdom
Where you live your nine lives
And your head spins
With purple cyclones
Made of dexadrine
And when the phone rings
You think bad things
Well these are high high high high times yeah
In any back street
When you take a hot seat
Make sure check your flight times
Oh now mama

Don't you know that last night
Turned to daylight
And a minute, became a day
Last night (last night)
All my troubles
Well they seemed so, so

Yeah, you know they're gonna bring it down now
They're gone wreck it down here
Something's come to rob me, and I can't get my head
I get nervous in the New York City Streets, where my legacy treads
I know I've been around standin' in the shadows, far from Humans with Guns,
But now It's too late, there's no escape, from what they have done
Come On!
I'm Going Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Going Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Going Deeper Underground
Well I got to go deeper, got to go much deeper, yeah
huh, hey
They're gonna wreck it down here
hey, yeah
They're gonna bring it down yah
Some people with a packet full of money, and an affel of hate
Take out pleasure in destruction of-eh everything, that they try to create
Somebody tell them why the zone man caan only tempering touch
Heaven Heaven where the badder mamma thinking chew, and now it's too much

I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Goin', I'm Goin', I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
I'm Goin', I'm Goin', I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
I'm Goin', I'm Goin', I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
I'm Goin', I'm Goin', I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
Something's come to rob me, and I can't keep my head
I get nervous in the New York City Streets, where my legacy treads
I know I've been around standin' in the shadows, far from Humans with Guns,
But now It's too late, there's no escape, from what they have done
I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
There's too much panic in this Town
I'm Goin' Deeper Underground
I'm Goin' Deeper Underground

I'm goin' deeper underground, deeper yeah, I'm goin', I'm Goin', deeper

You know this boogie is for real.

I used to buy my faith in worship,
But then my chance to Heaven slipped.
I used to worry about the future
But then I throw my caution to the wind.
I had no reason to be care free
No no no, until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah yeah yeah, you know I heard that boogie rhythm
Hey- I had no choice but to get down down down down.

[CHORUS]

Dance, nothing left for me to do but dance,
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
Got canned heat in my heals tonight baby

I feel the thunder see the lightning
I know this anger's heaven sent.
So I've got to hang out all my hang-ups
Because of the boogie I feel so hell bent
It's just an instant gut reaction, that I got
I know I never ever felt like this before,
I dont know what to do
But then thats nothing new,
Stuck between hell and high water
I need a cure to make it through.

Hey- dancing nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance,
Hey got canned heat in my heals tonight baby
You know know know I'm gonna dance yeah
Off all the nasty things that people say.

Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
Dance, come on got canned heat in my heals tonight
Canned heat in my heals tonight.

There you were freaking out,
Trying to get your head around the fact that me and you and love is dead
See how I'm trippin out
'cause you can't decide what you really want from me

Why does it have to be like this?
I can never tell
You make me love you, love you baby
With a little L

There you were shouting out
Cranking up your altercations, getting upset in your desperation
Screaming and hollering
How could this love become so paper thin?

You're playing so hard to get
You're making me sweat just to hold your attention
I can't give you nothing more
If you ain't givin' nothing to me

Don't you know that

you make me love you, love you baby
with a little L
why does it have to be like this
I can never tell

Seems like you're stepping on the pieces
of my broken shell
'cause you make me love you, love you
with a little L you know
that's the way you make me love you yeah

Why does it have to be like this?
I can never tell
You make me love you, love you baby
With a little L.


[Thanks to [email protected] for these lyrics]

My nerves are jangling with these sweet sensations
Baby Baby, looks like a superstar
I'd like a promise of love and patience
What am I to do? How am I to know?
Who you are

She shimmers like a California sunset
Honey, honey glitters but theres no gold
She carries sweetly infectious magic formulas
I'm so delirious, is she that serious?
Is she bringing me on, I've been waiting so long

And this love, Fool, osophy is killing
Previous illusions that
I had in my mind about you
Seems so true, all the lies you're telling
Tragically compelling and
My love it means nothing to you
So maybe I'm still a love Fool

I don't want to be a love Fool
I don't want the world I want you
But don't let me be your love Fool

Little darlin' don't you see the sun is shining
just for you, only today
If you hurry you can get a ray on you, come with me, just to play
Like every humming bird and bumblebee
Every sunflower, cloud and every tree
I feel so much a part of this
Nature's got me high and it's beautiful
I'm with this deep eternal universe
From death until rebirth

This corner of the earth is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of this I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
So inspired of that there's nothing left to do or say
Think I'll dream, 'til the stars shine

The wind it whispers and the clouds don't seem to care
And I know inside, that it's all mine
It's the chorus of the breakin' dawn
The mist that comes before the sun is born
To a hazy afternoon in May
Nature's got me high and it's so beautiful
I'm with this deep eternal universe from death until rebirth

[chorus]
You know that this corner of the earth is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of it I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me x5

This corner of the earth, is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
When the sunlight comes for free
I know the corner of this earth it smiles at me

I'm coming down to see ya
I'm looking for it fast and cheap
I'm looking for the black moon streets (Ye-ow)
I'm gonna get experience
I came to see the candyman
To turn it up and down

CHORUS:
(She says) Feels Just Like It Should
Yee-ow..Feels Just Like It Should
Yee-ow..Feels Just Like It Should
I'm gonna get experience
Yee-ow..Feels Just Like It Should
Turn it up and down

I'm throwing out my laser beam
To shot some cherries down
I take a little free agent
I got myself a five mile smile
So take me for the first time
I need a little sugar spice..Yee-ow
I wanna see the city lights
I don't know if I got her number

REPEAT CHORUS

VOCALIZER VOICE:
You know, it makes you wanna rock, rock, rock

Sugar spice, I'm on my phone
I'm outside, I need a little sex for about right now
I want you, I wanna lick you up and down
(Feels good) You said it would feel good and it does
And it feels, it feels, it feels (3x)
Just like you, just like you said it would
Yee-ow..Feels Just Like It Should (2x)
I'm coming down and around to taste your
Sugar Spice, I want you, sexy girl
It slips in, it feels, I love it when you tell me
Feels Just Like It Should

The pebbles you've arranged
In the sand they're strange
They speak to me like constellations as we lie here
There's a magic I can't hold
Your smile of honey gold
And that you never seem to be in short supply of

CHORUS:
Oooh…so baby let's get it on
Drinking wine and killing time sitting in the summer sun
You know, I wanted you so long
So why'd you have to drop that bomb on me

Lazy days, crazy doll
You said we been friends too long
Seven days in sunny june
Were long enough to bloom
The flowers on the summer dress you wore in spring
The way we laughed as one
And then you dropped the bomb
That I know you too long for us to have a thing

REPEAT CHORUS (2X)

Could it be this, the starfish in your eyes
Tell our silent wings, you fly away on
Seven days in sunny june
Were long enough to bloom
The flowers on that sunbeam dress you wore in spring
We laughed as one, why'd you drop that bomb on me

REPEAT CHORUS

Could it be this…
The honeysuckle guess you seem to show me
Could it be this…
For seven days in june I wasn't lonely
Could it be this…
You never gave me time to say I love you
Could it be this…
I know you don't believe me, but it's so true
Don't walk away from me girl
I read the stories in your eyes

Electric Mistress Lyrics: (3:59)

Why do I feel this way
Why do I feel this way
We're dancing in a trance
Your love is all I take
To try to get through to you
Baby, your red alert
I want you more and more
I want you so much that is hurts

CHORUS:
You seem so disconnected
But when I turn you on, your so effective
Pretty Polly is my electric mistress
When she's faking like a maniac (She's my aphrodisiac)

Baby I can't pretend
Baby I can't pretend
There's a maniac and it's you
Your a slave to every groove
There's something in your eyes
Doing the fiendish thing
What am I going to do
You keep me on a string

REPEAT CHORUS

Why can't we be together
Can't you love me, don't hate me
I don't see, why can't we live together
If we could get it on, maybe we can get along
Should be our destiny
Love's a cold streak living inside us
There's no fine bows, just bollocks and bones
If you wanna rise up, change our love inside us
We can make this hate stop (The name of shame)
Now don't you wanna rise up…

CHORUS:
We've been giving hate a chance
We got to hold this love together, you know
And our love, will be running out for us
Can you feel the beat, our love
I hope we're making steps around
As the wind, carries every 1/3 of the way

So why do we see this kind of love
It's only scaring me, don't mean a thing
So clear, and I meant this way around us
Can't you see it's scary love (2x)
Can't you see, it's scaring me, trigger happy fantasy
So stop standing up and bring some smoke down
Freedom is not so far away
If you know you wanna rise up
Before until our love's so lonely
We can make this hate stop, now don't you wanna rise up

REPEAT CHORUS

Now you've been taken our dignity for too long
I want to save this certainty that he hold
And who's right and who's wrong
We're not so different anyway
What's ours appears some, can't we stop the fighting cause

Can you dig it
Something in the air tonight
Got a one way ticket
Baby, don't you wanna ride
Got to make it
Make it to the other side
I've got demons
Snapping at my heels tonight

CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Turn me loose
Got people around running me down I cant stay
WOO
I just want to get away, I just want to get away now.
Get them off my back today

Can u feel it
Im stuck inside in a hurricane
Chasing rainbows
Cant u see im going insane
I wanna be a free man
But im spinning on this crazy wheel
Im jumping for the high bar
Cant u dig it
No longer know what I feel
Cant u see

CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Turn me loose
Got people around running me down I cant stay
I just want to get away, I just want to get away now.
Get them off my back today

I just wanna runaway
Turn me loose, turn me loose
Turn me loose, turn me loose

(Interlude)

Got to make it, got to make it
Got to break it, got to make it

CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Just want to runaway
Got people around running me down I cant stay
Can't stay here long now
I just want to get away
I just got to get away
Get them off my back today
WOO

I just want to runaway
La la la la la la
Just want to get away
La la la la la la
Turn me loose, runaway runaway
Got people around running me down I can't stay
Runaway, runaway

I just want to runaway
La la la la la la
Just got to get away
La la la la la la
Turn me loose, runaway
Get them off my back today

Something she's keeping from me
I'm not dumb
Don't give a damn, three's not a crowd
I'm a man, I'm a man

She likes boys, she likes girls
Twists her little fingers 'round those supernatural curls
There's a spider in her eyes
Something she can't disguise from me

And two heavy whispers from her blackened lips
Was all it took to get a touch feeling skits
Now she's gone, I'm left alone, lone like a loaded gun
I see you soon, lets have some fun, let's get it on

I have a reefer and some Spanish cigarettes
And on the back was written her address
Call me up, try me on, tune me in, let's make a supernova
Let's make another naked light show

Let's get it on the radio
You took me last night and you weren't alone
Lets get it on the radio
You're making love to me in stereo

Let;s do some crazy sh*t tonight
You guys have got the only tune I like
So let's get it on the radio
Just do it to me, give it to me, makin' love in stereo

Well, you come unstuck when you get misinformation
Don't drop me now, I'm high?
You dropped my lever and I lost this elevation
Baby I was so high, drop me out of your sky

Oh, baby you're wrong, all night
You were making love to me in stereo
Can't you see there's nothing wrong, all night
I know you want to get it on the radio

That's when some funny money funny business going on
Something she's keeping from me, I'm not dumb
Don't give a damn, well, three's not a crowd
I'm a man, I'm a man

She likes boys, she likes girls
Twists her little fingers 'round those supernatural curls
There's a spider in her eyes, something she can't disguise
That girl, ah, she's making love in stereo

So let's get it on the radio
You took me last night and you weren't alone
So let's get it on the radio
You're making love to me in stereo

Let's sneak it on the midnight news
You liked it once but now you work in twos
So let's get it on the radio
Just do it to me, give it to me, makin' love in stereo

All night, all night, all night
Let's get it on
All night, all nigh
Let's just get it on

Hey, I know all along
You were making love to me in stereo
I can see there's nothing wrong
I know you want to get it on the radio
Oh, let's get it on

All night, all night
Let's just get it on
All night, all night, all night
Let's get it on

All night, all night
Let's just get it on
All night, all night, all night
Let's get it on

Something she's keeping from me, I'm not dumb
I don't give a damn, three's not a crowd
I'm a man, I'm a man
