Huh, because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do
If you’re happy and you know it
Clap your hands
Because I’m Bad, I’m Bad
Come on
(Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
You know I’m Bad, I’m Bad-
You know it
(Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
You know I’m Bad, I’m Bad-
Come on, you know
(Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
And the whole world has to
Answer right now
Just to tell you once again,
Who’s Bad
I’ll be your Tarzan, you’ll be my Jane
I’ll keep you warm and you’ll keep me sane
And we’ll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
Just like an ape man
I’m an ape man, I’m an ape ape man, I’m an ape man
I’m a King Kong man, I’m a voo-doo man
I’m an ape man.
I don’t feel safe in this world no more
I don’t want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore
And make like an ape man.
“Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,”
Said the Chimpie to the Monk
“Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,”
Said the Monkey to the Chimp
All night long they’d chatter away
All day long there were happy and gay
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way
“Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,”
Means “Monk, I love but you.”
“Baba, daba, dab,” in monkey talk
Means “Chimp, I love you, too.”
Then the big baboon one night in June
He married them and very soon
They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon
But I’ve been bit and I’ve been tossed around
By every she-rat in this town
Have you babe?
But I am just a monkey man
I’m glad you are a monkey woman too
Every time man struggles and fails
He makes up some kind of fairy tales
After all of the misery that he has caused
He denies he’s descended from the dinosaurs
Points up to heaven with cathedral spires
All the time indulging in his base desires
Ever since we said it
He went and took the credit
It’s been headed this way since the world began
When a vicious creature took the jump from monkey to man
Monkey to man
And three monkeys sat in a coconut tree
Discussing things as they are said to be
Said one to other now listen, you two
"There’s a certain rumour that just can’t be true
That man descended from our noble race
Why, the very idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Starved her baby and ruined her life
Yeah
The monkey speaks his mind
Well, they gotta pet monkey
He likes to get drunky
And sing boogie woogie
And it sounds real funky
Come on, yo’ time, boy
Sing one, monkey
Here we go
(Monkey grunts)
Lets here it for the monkey!
Whooooo!
Back in the saddle, lookin’ for a little affection
I took a shot as a contestant on “The Love Connection”
The audience voted, and you know they picked a winner
I took my date to the Hilton for Medina and some dinner
She had a few drinks, I’m thinkin’ soon what I’ll be gettin’
Instead she started talkin’ ‘bout plans for our weddin’
I said, “Wait, slow down, love, not so fast says, I’ll be seein’ ya”
That’s why I found you don’t play around with the Funky Cold Medina
Love, exciting and new.
Come aboard, were expecting you.
Love, lifes sweetest reward,
Let it flow, it floats back to you.
The Love Boat soon will be making another run,
The Love Boat promises something for everyone.
Set a course for adventure,
Your mind on a new romance…
I love you, baby
And if it’s quite alright
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely nights
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say…
Good morning mister sunshine, you brighten up my day,
Come sit beside me in your way.
I see you every morning, outside the restaurants,
The music plays so nonchalant.
Lonely days, lonely nights.
Where would I be without my woman?
Sun is shinin’ in the sky
There ain’t a cloud in sight
It’s stopped rainin’ everybody’s in the play
And don’t you know
It’s a beautiful new day, hey hey
Runnin’ down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey hey
When you’re young and so in love as we,
And bewildered by the world we see,
Why do people hurt us so?
Only those in love would know,
What a town without pity can do.
-“BB”-
Love hurts,
Love scars,
Love wounds and marks,
Any heart not tough or strong enough,
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain.
Love is like a cloud, it holds a lot of rain,
Love hurts,
Ooh, love hurts.
*I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real…*
There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
King of pain
King of pain, king of pain, I always be king of pain
Who’s got the pain when they do the mambo?
Who’s got the pain when they go “Ugh”?
Who’s got the pain when they do the mambo?
I dunno who, do you?
Who needs a pill when they do the mambo?
Who needs a pill when they go “Ugh”?
Who needs a pill when they do the mambo?
I dunno who, do you?
A little bit of Monica in my life
A little bit of Erica by my side
A little bit of Rita is all I need
A little bit of Tina is what I see
A little bit of Sandra in the sun
A little bit of Mary all night long
A little bit of Jessica, here I am
A little bit of you makes me your man
