Let's Go Crazy [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1984]
--------------
Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
2 get through this thing called life
Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time,
But I'm here 2 tell u
There's something else...the afterworld.
A world of never ending happiness
U can always see the sun, day or night
So when u call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
U know the one - Dr Everything'll Be Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby
'Cuz in this life, things are
Much harder than in the afterworld
In this life you're on your own
And if de-elevator tries 2 bring u down
Go crazy - punch a higher floor
If u don't like the world you're living in
Take a look around u
At least u got friends
U see I called my old lady
4 a friendly word
She picked up the phone
Dropped it on the floor.
(sex, sex) is all I heard.
Are we gonna let de-elevator
Bring us down
Oh, no Let's Go!
Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Let's look 4 the purple banana
'Til they put us in the truck, let's go!
We're all excited
But we don't know why
Maybe it's cuz
we're all gonna die
And when we do (when we do)
What's it all 4 (what's it all 4)
U better live now
Before the grim reaper come knocking on your door
Tell me, are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down
Oh, no let's go!
Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Look 4 the purple banana
'Til they put us in the truck, let's go!
C'mon baby
Let's get nuts
Yeah
Crazy
Let's go crazy
Are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down
Oh, no let's go!
Go crazy
I said let's go crazy (go crazy)
Let's go let's go
Go
Let's go
Dr. Everything'll be alright
Will make everything go wrong
Pills and thrills and dafodills will kill
Hang tough children
He's coming, He's coming, coming
Take me away!
Take Me With You [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1984]
----------------
I can't disguise the pounding of my heart
It beats so strong
It's in your eyes what can I say
They turn me on
I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
Come on and touch the place in me
That's calling out your name
We want each other oh so much
Why must we play this game?
Don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
I don't care if we spend the night at your mansion
I don't care if we spend the night on the town
All I want is 2 spend the night together
All I want is 2 spend the night in your arms
To be around u is so-oh right
You're sheer perfection (thank u)
Drive me crazy, drive me all night
Just don't break up the connection
I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
I don't care where we go
I don't care what we do
I don't care pretty baby
Just take me with u
Just take me with u
Oh won't u take me with u

Wendy?

Is the water warm enough?
Yes Lisa
Shall we begin?

Where is my love life?
Where can it be?
There must be something wrong with the machinery

Tell me, tell me
Where has it gone?
Somebody please please tell me what the hell is wrong
Until I find the righteous 1
Computer blue
Until I find the righteous 1

Darling Nikki [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1984]
-------------
I knew a girl named Nikki
I guess u could say she was a sex fiend
I met her in a hotel lobby
Masturbating with a magazine
She said how'd u like 2 waste some time
And I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind
She took me 2 her castle
And I just couldn't believe my eyes
She had so many devices
Everything that money could buy
She said sign your name on the dotted line
The lights went out
And Nikki started 2 grind
Nikki
The castle started spinning
Or maybe it was my brain
I can't tell u what she did 2 me
But my body will never be the same
Her lovin' will kick your behind
Oh, she'll show u no mercy
But she'll sho'nuff sho'nuff show u how 2 grind
Darlin' Nikki
Woke up the next morning
Nikki wasn't there
I looked all over and all I found
Was a phone unmber on the stairs
It said thank u 4 a funky time
Call me up whenever u want 2 grind
Oh, Nikki, ohhhh
come back Nikki, come back
Your dirty little Prince
wanna grind grind grind grind grind grind grind grind grind
{{backwards at the end...}}
(Hello, how r u? I'm fine. 'cause I know that the)
(Lord is coming soon, coming, coming soon.)
When Doves Cry [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1984]
--------------
Dig if u will the picture
Of u and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can u my darling - can u picture this?
Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat -
The heat between me and u
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (so cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (she's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase u
Even doves have pride
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world so cold? (world so cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (she's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (a world that's so cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding (maybe, maybe I'm like my father)
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold (ya know he's 2 bold)
Maybe you're just like my mother (maybe you're just like my mother)
She's never satisfied (she's never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other (why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
When doves cry (doves cry doves cry)
When doves cry (doves cry doves cry)
When doves cry
When doves cry
When doves cry
When Doves cry, doves cry, doves cry, doves cry

Purple Rain [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1984]

I only wanted 2 see u bathing in the purple rain
I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover

Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out 4 something new
That means u 2

All of my purple life
I've been looking for a dream

Thoughts of pretty u and me, Erotic City come alive
(We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone)

17 Days [Controversy Music - 1984] [u.s. flipside to When Doves Cry]
-------
Called u yesterday, u didn't answer your phone
The main drag is knowing that u probably weren't alone
So here I sit in my lonely room, lookin' 4 my sunshine
But all I've got is two cigarettes, and this broken heart of mine
So let the rain come down let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down, let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
You've been gone 17 days and 17 long nights
The main drag is knowing that you're holding someone else tight
I want to call u everyday and beg u 2 be near me
But I know your head is underwater,
I doubt that u can hear me
So let the rain come down let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down, let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah....17 days
ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah....17 days
Called u yesterday
U didn't answer your phone
If you're the one who's always lonely
Then I'm the one who's always alone
So here I sit in my lonely room, lookin' 4 my sunshine
All I've got is 2 cigarettes, and this broken heart of mine
So let the rain come down let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down, let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
{chorus repeats in background}
Oh, I told u, I told u [forever baby]//[it's only for a day],
17 days
Another Lonely Christmas [Controversy Music - 1984] [u.s. flipside to I Would Die 4 U]
------------------------
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there
u are the 1 I dream about
u are the 1 that makes my love shout
Cuz ya see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Do u remember the time we swam naked
In your father's pool?
Boy he was upset that night
But boy was that ever cool
Remember the night we played burkina 4 money
And u robbed me blind
Remember how u used 2 scream so loud
cuz u hated that number 9
Hey I saw your sister skating on the lake, this afternoon
Good Heaven how she's grown
She's a [... skater] she's so tall
But of all your father's children
All your father's children, baby
u know u are the finest of them all
u are brighter than the northern star
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there
u are the 1 I dream about
u are the 1 that makes my love shout
Cuz ya see, u are the only 1 I care 4, yeah
My momma used 2 say
That I was just your lover
Now I guess that only applies 2 her
Cuz baby u promised me
Baby u promised me U'd never leave
Then u died on the 25th day of December
Oh baby
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, baby, u should've been there
u are the 1 I dream about
u are the 1 that makes my love shout
Cuz ya see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Your father said it was pnemonia
Your mother said it was strep
The doctor said u were dead
And I sat senseless
Every Christmas night 4 7 years now
I drink banana daquaris 'til I'm blind
As long as I can hear u smilin' babe
U won't hear my tears
Another lonely Christmas is mine
yeah, mine
yeah
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there
cuz all the 1's I dream about
u are the 1 that makes my love shout
Cuz ya see, u are the only 1 I care 4
God [Controversy Music - 1984] [u.s. flipside to Purple Rain]
---
In the beginning
There was God
He made the earth
And the Heavens
He gave us light to rule the day
And another light to rule the night
The Lord, thy God, made, he made the seas
He made the fruit upon the trees
Made us all
Made and saw that it was good
He made a man, made a man
Only he could, only he could
God made u
God made me too
He made us all, made us all equally
Now u say
God made u
God made me
He made us all equally
Wake up children
Dance the Dance Electric
There isn't much time
Who screamed?
Was it u?
