Macy Gray Album

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I belive that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But we're not
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll try to keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here

I may appear to be free
But I'm just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll try to keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here

Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy, I need your touch
Your love, kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can't deny
Deny

I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
(but I'm dreaming of you babe)
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm feenin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not near aahh)
Goodbye and I choke (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble (hey, hey, hey)
Though I try to hide it, it's clear (say it Lord)
My world crumbles when you are not here

Goodbye and I choke (I'm choking)
I try to walk away and I stumbe
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not near, yeah, yeah yeah)

Like Cleopatra
Got the masses at my feet
Got a living dwell
Down on easy street
I'm the latest craze (oh yeah)
And if you stay a while
Inevitably
You gone be bitin' my style
In your later days (well, well, well)
Let me tell you what is fact
And what is true
I get high and that aint that much to do
I'm always in a daze (uh huh)
That was just a dream I had
Last night in my bubble bath
Next to my wishing well
Oh yeah, you betta

(Chorus):
Get up, get out
And do somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass you by
You got to
Get up, get out
And do somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
Get up, get out
And do somethin'
Can't spend your whole life tryin' to get high
You got to get up, get out
And do somethin'
'Cause you and I have to do
For you and I

What's been happenin'
How you doin'
Where you been
I'm further behind now
Than I was back then
Lost in some old maze (uh huh)
Some years have passed me by
All I want is to go get high
I'll get it together
Some other day

In my dreams I dwell (uh huh huh)
'Cause all my dreams are swell (woo, woo, woo)
You would too
If you could see them
That's what I know
I gotta go
Get up
Get out and (yeah)

Heaven's at my feet
Got a living dwell
Down on easy street
I'm the latest craze (uh huh)
It's just a dream I had
Last night in my bubble bath
Next to my wish--yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah

(Repeat Chorus)

Why don't you do somethin'?
(Repeat with chorus til end)

In my last years with him there were bruises
On my face
In my dawn and new day
I finally got away
But my head's all messed up and he knows
Just what to say
No more dawn and new days
I'm goin back to stay
Why say bye bye
When it only makes me cry
I still
Light up like a candle burnin when he call me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin everytime we touch
Oh say what you will
He does me wrong and I should be gone
I still
Be lovin you baby and it's much too much

We are goin down
Cuz you're always getting high
And your crumb and lovin
No longer get me by
Wow! It get better everytime that we get high
Then your crumbs of lovin
They somehow get me by
Why say bye bye
When it only makes me cry
I still
Light up like a candle burnin when he call me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin everytime we touch
Oh say what you will
He does me wrong and I should be gone
I still
Be lovin you baby and it's much too much

Can't I go my severed way?
Some rain for my sunny day
Not even one reason to say
Why?
I should've left you
Why?
I can't forgetcha baby
Why?
Ever since I mathca it's
Why?

We went out one night
Everything went right
We got something started
It was outta sight
We had such a good time
Hey! Why didn't you call me?
I thought I'd see you again

Bt the phone I wait
String into space
Thinking about our first kiss
Out on our first date
We had such a good time
Hey! Why didn't you call me?
I thought I'd see you again

Why don't you call me again?
And I'm gonna ask
When I see you again
Thought you would be my man my lover my friend
I never thought it would end so quickly
It would end

I've resorted to
Hanging up on you
I know you know it's me
How else will I talk to you
We had such a good time
Hey! Why didn't you call me?
I thought I'd see you again

Why don't you call me again?
And I'm gonna ask
When I see you again
Thought you would be my man my lover my friend
I never thought it would end so quickly
We had such a good time
Hey! Why didn't you call me?
I thought I'd see you
I thought I'd see you
I thought I'd see you again

My baby works down at the boulevard café
Just a fine young man with big dreams
Trying to make his wn way
The owner is this man ole bitch who degrades
Him everyday
Then she fires him for no reason
Don't wanna give him for no reason
I've committed murder and I think I got away
I'm hiding at my mother's house corne get me right away
Right away
I have no intention of paying for my crimes don't fear
We're gonna get the next plane outer here and fly away
Fly away

When he's down it breaks my heart to see him
So I figured I'd talk to her woman to woman
I walk in and she's countin her cash
Got so much cash her office looks like a green pasture
I said, "give him the little bit of money you owe him"
She said" get back bitch I ain't givin you shit"
I said, "you ole bag, maybe you ain't heard but them are
Fightin words"
I've committed murder and I think I got away
I'm hiding at my mother's house corne get me right away
Right away
I have no intention of paying for my crimes don't fear
We're gonna get the next plane outer here and fly away
Fly away

And I don't feel bad about it
See baby there was this struggle
And I don't feel bad about it
As a result of our struggle
And I don't feel bad about it
But the good thing is
And I don't feel bad about it
We don't have to struggle no more

With a suitcase full of money
We flew to a Jamaican paradise
One thing I've learned through all of this is
Having money sure is nice
Me and my baby got married

He's working hard to make his dreams came true
As far as regrets I don't have any
Would You?
I've committed murder and I think I got away
I'm hiding at my mother's house corne get me right away
Right away
I have no intention of paying for my crimes don't fear
We're gonna get the next plane outer here and fly away
Fly away

Everybody shake it
Time to be free amongst yourselves
Your mama told you to be discreet
And keep your freak to yourself
But your mama lied to you all this time
She knows as well as you and I
You've got to express what is taboo in you
And share your freak with the rest of us
Cause it's a beautiful thing
A beautiful thing
A beautiful thing

This is my sexual revolution,sexual revolution

Everybody shake it
Time to be free amongst yourselves
Your mama told you to be discreet
And keep your freak to yourself
But your mama lied to you all this time
She knows as well as you and I
You've got to express what is taboo in you
And share your freak with the rest of us
Cause it's a beautiful thing

Sexual revolution
It's a beautiful thing
It's a beautiful thing

Everybody break it
Every rule every constriction
My papa told me be home by now
But my party has just begun
Maybe he'll understand
That got to be
To be the freak that God made me
So many things that I want to try
Got to do them before I die

This is my sexual revolution
I'm so funky beautiful
Especially when I take my clothes off
I'm so funky beautiful
Especially when I take my clothes off

Sexual revolution

Many times I've been told that I should go 
but they don't know
what we got baby 
they may not see the love in you 
but love I do 
and I'll stay right here

mmm sweet sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing 
I am sure of
that I'm your lady 
always baby 
and I love you now and ever

Sugar wishes don't change what is real
or how it feels in the bad times
for whatever he is, he's mine all the time
and we get by with our true love

mmm sweet sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing 
I am sure of
that I'm your lady 
always baby 
and I love you now and ever

mmm sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing 
I am sure of
that I'm your lady 
always baby 
and I love you now and ever

I bet, would I ever find, my sweet
just a true love, my sweet
that we come this far together
I bet, so I'm here to stay 
cos without you baby 
I can't go any further

mmm sweet baby life is crazy
but there's one thing 
I am sure of
that I'm your lady 
always baby baby
mah mah ever mah mah ever mah mah sweet sweet baby
life is so sweet with you 
sweet with you 
sweet
sweet with... 
(Macy fades away)

Lyrics: Macy Gray

He tends to get carried away
Like a talk show he's got drama every day
Lots of rage and mental abusing
The way he treats me it's obvious he's confusing me for some dumb bitch
Who will stick around
I tend to stick around
You, tell me that you love me if it's true
Why am I running from you
And who are these witches on my answering machine
Yeah you, you, tell me you love me but boo if this is love
It's a good thing you don't hate me
Superfly
Someone who'll at least try
Who ... out from time to time
And love me all nite
Tell me everything about him
And none of it turns out to be lies
Easy rainbow
These words come to mind
And he loves me all nite
You
Tell me that you love me if it's true
Why am I running from you
And who are these bitches on my answering machine
Yeah you, you, tell me you love me but boo if this is love
It's a good thing you don't hate me

Never settle for the things that you don't really want
Cause all it gets you is a big of piece of unhappiness
Happiness could be mine and it's so hard to talk to you
Baby
One day I will
Some day I will and this is what I'll say
Ah ha ha
Boo

Hold me close
Cause I'm the most thing that make a toast to you and me
See that's the way love's supposed to be
Not stressful...alright

You
Tell me that you love me if it's true
Why am I running from you
And who are these bitches on my answering machine

It's a good thing you don't hate me
It is love it's how could this be

Verse 1:
It's been three days since I screamed and hung up on ya
All I wanted was to hold you tight

And I wanna learnt o be alright
Truth it all I'm doing is missin ya

Heart of mine, milk and honey, it ain't the money no we know.
Doin' lines, ain't it funny that it ain't the money, now we know.

After the money they lust sell their souls for the unlimited cash
Flow, in god we trust but that's never in class though, enron,
Worldcom, ceo assholes a monopoly to collect whenever they
Pass go, big screen TV's nigga please, there will be no alerts b4
They search the siege 13 hrs in the seal with 13 leaves 13
Steps that it takes to see 13 thieves.

Hidee high, lowdy low, get up and go to the show, every time
I get low I get up and go to the show.

I fell in love with her once she was evil I remember, her 18th
Birthday she became legal tender. Some say she was heaven sent
With skeletons in her closet, traded herself for drugs and stayed
Inside of her wallet. I know women who couldn't have her who
Became alcoholics, in the fetal position bent over toilets
And calling for earl with pains in their bladders so people listen
When I tell you it really don't matter.

Betcha giving head to a movie star betcha gotta llama riding in
Your car betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis, betcha giving
Head to a movie star betcha gotta llama riding in your car
Betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis.

Hidee high, lowdy low, get up and go to the show.

Ain't it funny how the money makes the honey taste like nothing
You can't have no more? How we know. Ain't it funny how the
Money makes the honey taste like nothing you can't have no
More? Now we know. Ain't it funny how the money makes to
Honey taste just like nothing – people act like they have but
They're bluffing now we know that it don't mean nothing.

Peace of mind fill my tummy it ain't the money, now we know.
Hard to find got my something it ain't the money know we know.
Hidee high lowdy low, get up and go to the show. Now we know.
Now we know

Wrote me in a letter that she makes u feel better and all of the
Things u said to her but I feel what I feel, it's real.

She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me ‘cause she ain't right for you – she
Don't love you like I do.

Turn me around. Turn me upside down sporting the tears of a
Clown but I feel what I feel, it's real.

She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me ‘cause she ain't right for you – she
Don't love you like I do.

They will say that I spend all my days chasing a love that she
Took away but I feel what I feel.

You know baby I've been trying to tell you for a mighty long
Time now that u can keep looking u can keep searching all
Over the world. Trying to find a find a love like mine but the real
Thing is right here baby and no matter what she say no matter
What she do, she don't like u like I do.

She ain't right for you she don't know you like I do, no matter
What she do she ain't right for you, don't u want to be happy?
Baby u should stay with me ‘cause she ain't right for you – she
Don't love you like I do.

They will say that I spend all my days chasing a love that she
Took away but I feel what I feel

I want too much to be with you
But I'm working night and day
I came all this way to see you
And you tell me you need space
Everyone I know is compatible with somebody I know
I can never get it right
And I don't know where to go
Stay away from me don't you ever leave me alone, NO

Love is gonna get you baby
Someday, one day, it will be
A good love that gets me
Love is gonna get ya baby
Someday, one day, I will find
Somebody for me

I have talked to all the experts,
all the psychics...I've loved
I have prayed for all the answers
To the game of love above
They all say it's unanimous
There's somebody for me
But none of them will tell me
When it is, where he might be
I want to be with you, I just won't to be alone.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

Love is gonna get you baby
Someday, one day, it will be
A good love that gets me
Love is gonna get ya baby
Someday, one day, I will find
Somebody for me

I believe in destiny
I believe it sets me free
Come and save me with your kiss
Been on my best behavior
Friends say I'm looking greater
Won't you, won't you, just save me with your kiss
Save me with your kiss
Won't you just save me with your kiss?

Love is gonna get you baby
Someday, one day, it will be
A good love that gets me
Love is gonna get you baby
Someday, one day, it will be
A good love that gets me
Love is gonna get ya baby
Someday, one day, I will find
Somebody for me

[No lyrics]

They said she had a heart attack
I think the creatures coming back
And I am fine, coz all my love's electrifying
And I come feel like assessable
Wanna be with you
And it's my premonition
I better give my heart a listen
And my preacher say

All of your demons will wither away
Ecstasy comes and they cannot stay
You'll understand when you come my way
Coz all of my demons have withered away

All of your demons will wither away
Ecstasy comes and they cannot stay
You'll understand when you come my way
Coz all of my demons have withered away
All of my demons have withered away

He said he shook himself to death
I wanna dance to my last breath

Come feel like assessable
Wanna be with you, wanna be with you
And it's my premonition
I better give my heart a listen
And my preacher say
