That I want to lose in you
Baby can you stand the pain
Hey, lover, sugar don't you see?
There's so many things that you do to me
Oh baby
All I want to see is the love in your eyes (hey, lover)And all I want to hear is your sweet love sighs
All I want to feel is burning flames (hey, lover)
Tell me, tell me, baby, that you feel the same
Tell me that you feel the same way I do
Tell me that you love me girl
We'd be so lost, in our mouths, the best, I feel it everyday (every way)
You feel so wrong, be alone, if you just follow somebody someday
Soft and wet

Every time I'm with you, you just love me to death
Oh wee, baby, you leave me without

inspectorbudget Here are the lyrics, basically a silly argument skit. "
Woman overboard, everybody on the ground
10 toes goin’ up, 10 toes goin’ down
Got the gun pointin’ at ‘cha
We’re never gonna cut our hair
(Come here, let me cut that hair) No!
Gotta, gotta
(My body wanna tell U 2 take control)
(This way 2 this purple soul)
Oh, pretty mama, I think I wanna ride
Sophie, 4 God’s sake
If U touch the television, I’ll kill U Sophie
Sol, can U please change the channel 4 God’s sake?
I don’t care, leave it alone, sit down!
I can’t stand David Letterman, he looks like a banker
U don’t have 2 watch Dynasty 2 have an attitude
Leave it all up 2 me, my love will be, will be your food
Everybody will have short hair
Let’s cut it, mama! (Pretty mama)
I think I wanna ride
Put the daddy in the front seat, me and the girl outside
I just want your extra time and your ..... kiss
Oh my God, isn’t that Prince on television, Sol? {fade out}
OK Sophie, it’s obvious
No, wait a minute, I bought this television
Why’d... why U ruin it 4 me 4 God’s sake?
Is he the strangest lookin’ thing U’ve ever seen or what?
U wanna talk strange Sophie? OK, let's talk strange
Sol, don’t U touch that channel!
Leave it alone, Sol!
Sophie, U’re strange, I’m changin’ the channel
Sol, do U... do U value your life?
Sit down Sol!"

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You don't have to be beautiful to turn me on
I just need your body, baby, from dusk 'til dawn
You don't need experience to turn me out
You just leave it all up to me,
I'm gonna show you what it's all about
[Chorus]
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your kiss
[Verse 2]
You got to not talk dirty, baby,
If you wanna impress me
You can't be too flirty, mama,
I know how to undress me
I want to be your fantasy,
Maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me,
We could have a good time
[Chorus]
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your kiss
[Bridge]
Yes, oh, I think I wanna dance, uh
Gotta, gotta, oh
Little Girl Wendy's Parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta
[Verse 3]
Women, not girls, rule my world,
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama, not your shoe size,
Maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch
"Dynasty" to have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me,
My love will be your food
[Chorus]
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm compatible with!
I just want your extra time and your kiss

One of my best memories of my grandfather is him watching Prince perform on tv and saying. “Wow, the lady can really dance.”
