Robert Palmer Album

Said the fight to make ends meet
Keeps a man upon his feet
Holding down his job
Trying to show he can't be bought

Ooh, it takes every kinda people
To make what life's about, yeah
Every kinda people
To make the world go 'round

Someone's looking for a lead
In his duty to a king or to a creed
Protecting what he feels is right
Fights against wrong with his life

There is no profit in deceit
Honest men know that
Revenge does not taste sweet
Whether yellow, black or white
Each and every man's the same inside

Ooh, it takes every kinda people
To make what life's about, yeah
It takes every kinda people
To make the world go 'round

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

You know that love's the only goal
That could bring a peace to any soul
Hey, and every man's the same
He wants the sunshine in his name

Ooh, it takes every kinda people
To make what life's about, yeah
It takes every kinda people
To make the world go 'round

Mmm, every kinda people
To make what life's about
It takes every kinda people
To make the world go 'round

We want the best of both worlds
We want it slow and hot
We like to taste revenge, yeah
But we can't waste the shot

We want to see from both sides
We like it cool and fast
We want to get it over
We like to make it last

Keep it on
It's getting closer
The best of both worlds
Double fun

We'll make the most, girl
To get the best of both worlds
We must obey the law
What good's a place to stand up
Without a place to fall?

Two and one
Fast and slow girl
The best of both worlds
Double fun
I'd like to now propose a toast
To the best of both worlds

I think about the war that is no fight at all
I think about the peace that is a fight for all
The best of both worlds
Keep it on
Fast and slow girl
The best of both worlds
Tight as a drum, loose as a gun holster
Yeah, it's getting closer

Why do we waste our breath, child
On what we like the most
Seeing as we've wound up here
We ought to do them both

Back and forth
We get the most
Yeah, the best of both worlds
South and north
I'd like to now propose a toast
To the best of both worlds
Two and one
Fast and slow girl
The best of both worlds
Double fun
We'll make the most girl to get the best of both worlds

Ah you pull and push me
You never try to rush me
You make it easy to give it up
You make it hard to get enough
You make my heart beat strongly
You make the mood come on me
I ache for you when you're not here
I can't bear in when you get so near
You make me nervous - what can I do?
I guess I'll have to settle up with you
Let's settle up on two
You want something but you don't know what
Better make the most of what you've got
Don't go promising that you'll be true
I got used to hearing truth from you
Come over
Rock me in my chair,
Come over
Oooh, move me everywhere
Oh you run my motor
You make me think it over
We've got the rug from under us
Let's stay off it till we had enough
You tease my monkey
You make my knees feel funky
I ache for you when you're not here
I can't bear it when you get too near
You want something but you don't know what
Better make the most of what you've got
Don't go promising that you'll be true
I got used to hearing truth from you
Come over
Rock me in my chair,
Ooh would you do it now?
Come over
Oooh, move me everywhere
Oooh come over
You pull and push me
You never try to rush me
Come over
You make it easy yo give it up

When love comes in
And takes your heart
Just let it go
And play your part
When love comes in
And takes your heart
Just let it go
And play your part oh oh

A searching love
Is a precious thing
Easy to spoil
And so hard to give in to
The blame is shared
When we meet half way
Desire is real
It's a path to be taken
Even sleep can turn cruel
When your heart's confused
Whether we spend our lives together
Or we never see each other again
I'll always celebrate
The times that we both knew
Baby your love is here
Is mine with you?

In the deep of our eyes
We just wait to be taken
Sometime's we've been mistreated
By the love we gave
Honey we're not pretenders
We both know life isn't only a game
I'll always celebrate the times that we both know
Baby your love is here
Where can it go?

When love comes in
And takes your heart
Just let it go
And play your part
When love comes in
And takes your heart
Just let it go
And play your part oh oh
When love comes in and takes your heart
Let it go and play your part

Night people, hanging out
Looking at each other waiting for something to happen
Night people, hanging out
Looking at each other
Waiting for soemthing to happen

While the day world is sleeping
Night people are creeping, hanging out
Looking at each other
When the day world stops moving
Night people start grooving, hanging out
Looking at each other
When the day bees stop buzzing
Night people start coming, hanging out
Waiting for something to happen
Night people , hanging out
Looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen

You don't get one thing
Without the other
We got to keep the world alive
If everybody went to sleep
At the same time,
How'd we keep the world alive

In a word we got the night people,
Night people, hanging out
Looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen

Got to see who is with you
Who is with me, who is with who, we're hanging out
Looking at each other
Got to see whatcha wearing, whatcha got
Whatcha sharing , hanging out
Waiting for something to happen

As the day world goes by
Night people doing fine, hanging out
Looking at each other
When the day world starts humping
Night people start pumping, hanging out
Waiting for something to happen
Night people hanging out
Looking at each other
Waiting for soemthing to happen
Night people, hanging out
Looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
Night people grooving , hanging out
Night people grooving
Night people grooving
Night people grooving
Night people grooving
Night people grooving

When you've run out
Of time for a feeling
You've gotten used to believing in

Love can run faster than you can

Waste no tears
Over what you are leaving,
There's a new love about to begin

Love can run faster than you can

Fall for what replaces
The things you were leading to
Love can take a turn
When you least expect it to
Me and you, me and you oh oh

Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can

Take what you get
Till you get what you want
Don't settle for
What you know to be wrong
When you've run out of time
For a feeling
You've gotten used to believing in

Love can run faster than you can

Fall for what replaces
The things you were leading to
Love can take a turn
When you least expect it to
Me and you, me and you oh oh

Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can

You overwhelm me,
When you move your body next to mine
Won't you tell me
How you always know what's on my mind

It's a fever you know how to soothe
And a calm contentment
Only you can get to

You overwhelm me
Oh babe I think you look so fine

I may be turned around
You'll show me the way
I may be tired of trying
You'll show me the light of day
My imagination is fired
I had only dreamt love could be so inspired

You overwhelm me
When you move your body next to mine
It's a fever you know how to soothe
And a calm contentment
Only you can get to

You overwhelm me, baby
You fill my soul with desire
Only fools aren't afraid to be burned by fire
You overwhelm me,
When you move your body next to mine
Won't you tell me
Oh babe I think you look so fine

You overwhelm me yeah
Wont you tell me
How you always know what's on my mind

Girl you really got me going
You got me so I don't know what I'm doing

You came up on me like a landslide
Once in awhile I get taken like that
And I like it
I've got a thunderbird parked right outside
Give me a minute to finish this thing
And we'll light it.
In all this heat it's a job keeping cool
Oh yeah
And I could fry an egg on you
You came up on me like a landslide
Once in awhile I get taken like that
And I like it

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

I hope that you're half as intrepid
As you make out
More often than not, I'll bet
You never got what you asked for
Keep on pouring until you hear me shout
And turn up the sound
If you want me to drive any faster
Caution went out when you walked in the room
If it never came back it would be too soon

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

You came up on me like a landslide
Once in awhile I get taken like that
And I like it
You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you

You're gonna get what's coming
You've been asking for it two days running
You're gonna get what's coming
You're gonna get what's coming to you
