Psychefunkapus Lyrics

We are the Young

All the younger generations have to come to understand
that the future of our nations lies within our very hands
If we all join in together to discuss our every need
we could rid this world forever of politics and greed
Power hungry politicians can't accept the way we live
Much too deep in prohibitions to donate a chance to give
I can't help but feel the sorrow, feel the pity and the shame
for the children of tomorrow, 'cause it's them who'll take the blame

Inclination, motivation, that's how we can change the world
Reconstruction for the function for our future boys and girls
Can't you see it's up to you and me?

We are the young
generation of the place, you know
it's time that we take a stand
We are the young
We are the young
and we can make this a better land
We are the young
This song has got a rhythm
This song has got a message too
We are the young
and what you do with what you learn
is totally up to you

We must gain or disposition of the way we feel we've been
We must seek out oppositions in this world we're living in
Got to put our dreams in motion, despite what others say
'cause it's effective self-devotion that will make a better day
Let's not
judge ourselves by color, by religion, or by sex
Let's reach out to one another and bring out our very best
We beleive in what we're saying, so put your trust in us
we express ourselves by playing, we're called Psychefunkapus

Inclination, motivation, that's how we can change the world
Reconstruction for the function for our future boys and girls
Can't you see it's up to you and me?

We are the young
generation of the place, you know
I said it's time that we take a stand
We are the young 
We are the young
and we can make this a better land
We are the young
This song has got a funky rhythm
but this song has got a message too
We are the young
and what you do with what you learn
is totally up to you

   Now let me tell you a little somethin' about judgement day
   when the flowers and the trees will fade away
   when the sun won't shine and the rain won't fall
   and we all gotta answer to the big dad's call

   but before that day we gotta take a stand
   to spread love and peace throughout the land
   I said it's up to us, the young at heart
   to give this world a brand new start

   Communication is the way to bring about
   peace to the world without a doubt
   But if we don't start today
   we might as well kiss this world away

   That's right homeboy, hear ya loud and clear
   the time for us to reconstruct is here
   It's time for the young to make a fuss
   'Cause there's no justice but there is just us!
    
Can't you see it's up to you and me?

We are the young
generation of the place, you know
I said it's time that we take a stand
We are the young
We are the young
and we can make this a better land
We are the young
This song has got a funky rhythm
but this song has got a message too
We are the young
and what you do with what you learn
is totally up to you, we are the young

we are the young, listen to me now
we are the young, younger generation

We are the young, let's take advantage of the present,
for it's a prime time for revolution. Let us join together,
communicate, associate, for there is no longer black and white,
there is only wrong and right.
we are the young.

Movin'

Come on baby, we're gettin' up and gettin' down, 
we're movin' right now, right off of this street
I can't stand the pressure of all the shit that's comin' down
I'm losin' all my friends, losin' all my ground

Come on baby we're movin'
Come on baby we're movin'

  It's just the shifting of the wind
  I'll taste the fruit this lesson brings

I'm out of money, I'm out of time, out of rest
I'm takin' any chances, takin' any dares
friends are in the back door, cops are in the front
gearing up for war, takin' it as it comes

Come on baby we're movin'
Come on baby we're movin'

  It's just the shifting of the wind
  I'll taste the fruit this lesson brings

Oooh, don't know how I did get myself into these things
but I gotta break free from the grip of this cold, cold pain
I didn't mean to take you down, but I guess you're here beside me now
I'm gonna get you out any way that I can
Out

  It's just the shifting of the wind
  I'll taste the fruit this lesson brings
  It's just the shifting of the wind
  I'll taste the fruit this lesson brings

Come on baby we're movin'
Come on baby we're movin'

Fixx

Why must I live my life tomorrow?
Why can't I deal with it today?
Why do I steal, cheat, and borrow?
Why am I throwing my life away?

I can't seem 
(to get a fixx up)
You can't seem
(to get a fixx up)
I can't seem 
(to get a fixx up)
You can't seem
(to get a fixx up)

Why is it my mind is always wandering?
Why do I gaze into the stars?
Where is it my lonely soul is floundering to,
Is it deep within the river of my old scars?

I can't seem
(to get a fixx up)
You can't seem
(to get a fixx up)
I can't seem
(to get a fixx up)
You can't seem
(to get a fixx up)

 I (get a fixx up)
 You (get a fixx up)
 We (get a fixx up)
 Us (get a fixx up)

Why do I gaze at my reflection?
What is it that attracts me to a mirror?
Where must I run to seek protection?
Why do I bother running from my own fears?

(Man I'll tell you)

get a fixx up
get a fixx up
get a fixx up


Freedom 

You got my pride
hangin' outta my bed
You messing with my life
so I brought my lead
Even messin' with my children
and you screamin' at my wife, yeah
Get offa my back
if you wanna get out of here alive

(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) that's what I want now
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) that's what I need now
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) to live
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) so I can give

You got my heart
Speak electric water
You got my soul
screamin' and hollering
You know you hooked my girlfriend
You know the drugstore ma'am
Well, I don't need it now
I'm just tryin' to slap it outta her hand

(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) so I can live
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) so I can give
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) yeah-heh
(Freedom) Freedom, (give it to me) that's what I need

You don't have to
say that you love me
If you don't mean it,
you better believe
If you need me,
or you just wanna bleed me,
better stick in your dagger in someone else
so I can leave
Set me free

Keep on pushing, straight ahead
Keep on pushing, straight ahead
Keep on pushing, straight ahead
Keep on pushing, straight ahead




Regeneration

let's go to work
Let's go to war
Let's break down doors of distant shores
we can exchange gifts 
city for city
But where will you run when all the dust settles to the ground
and there's no one else around?

  Regeneration
  Regeneration

So nobody's perfect
but can you think of somethin' better to do with $100 bill' or so?
We can build it up
and we will tear it down
but what will you do when all the .. .. ..
and there's nothing you can crown

  let's go to work

we can exchange gifts 
it won't be too pretty
But where will you run when all the dust settles to the ground

A.M.

Woke up this mornin', I couldn't find the doorknob
I tripped over the bedpost and I hit my head
I got a revelation, it struck me as funny
My baby wasn't near me, and neither was my money!

  Is this what I live for?
  Cheap thrills and deceit
  but what the HELL is that smell?
  I think I'll go brush my teeth!

I feel a little moisture in between my Jockeys
I jump into the shower and I cleanse myself
I feel a little hungry, so I eat a bowl of cornflakes
I turn on the network, oh shit! There's been another earthquake!!

  Is this what I live for?
  To go down with the ship?
  It's almost time for the Jetsons
  I think I'll go smoke that ...

  Sally wants to be a rich girl
  She wants a part on TV
  Sally wants to be a rich girl 
  she don't want to depend on me

But I gave her all my love and I gave her all my time
And ever since she walked out the door the girl is always on my mind
I never had enough to buy her pearls or even diamond rings
I never had any money to buy her any of those things 
 
  I need the money
  To make her happy
  I need the money 
  To make her mine
  I need the money 
  To make her happy 
  I need the money  
  To make her mine 

  Sally wants to be a rich girl  
  she don't want to depend on me 
  Sally wants to be a rich girl  

When the earth stopped shakin' I heard the doorbell ringin'
I looked out through the peephole and it was only the mailman
He wants to give me a letter, it wasn't very funny
My rich uncle just croaked, but he left me all that money!

  Is this what I live for?
  To live life like a king?
  Hey - that might be Sally on the phone right now -
  I think I'll just let it ring!!

Oh Mighty Jesus!

  Sally girl was walkin' down the street without a care
  walkin' home with any guy she meets anywhere
  Besides, your little game really wasn't very clever
  next time, Sally, you should think it out better!

Oh honey!
All that money!
Oh honey! 
All that money! 
I'm rich!
I'm rich! 
I'm rich, ain't that a bitch!

Slut Child

Look into my eyes as the lights go low
can you see the perilous flame?
Take me to the place where your wild friends go
let me fill your body with shame

You can say what you want to
You can tell me that you must be free
You can say that you're righteous
but you'll always be a slut child 
to me

Your mommy's in the kitchen with your dad's best friend
Your daddy's in the office with Sue - working overtime
You hear the phone ring at a quarter past ten
It's your cousin, and he's calling for you (isn't it a crime?)

You can say what you want to
You can tell me that it's not your style
You can try to play it off
But you're gonna be a slut child
for a while
for a very long while

why are you a
Slut Child
you're the kind of girl my mother warned me about
Slut Child
wearing tight jeans with the knees worn out
Slut Child
looking for adventure down the pants of a man
Slut Child
no one tries to help you 'cause they just don't understand

Oh no, they just don't understand

You took me for a ride on a saturday night
I saw your panties in the back seat
I thought it'd be cool, "outta mind, outta sight"
but the stench knocked me off of my feet!

You can say what you want to
You can tell me that you're really trying
You can tell me you're a victim
but we know that you're a slut child
and you're probably dying
dying
dying
stop crying, baby

Slut Child
you're the kind of girl my mother warned me about
Slut Child 
wearing tight jeans with the knees worn out
Slut Child 
looking for adventure down the pants of a man
Slut Child
no one tries to help you 'cause they just don't understand 

17 and Under

Little sweethearts on my mind, the kind that dress new-wavy
give me love for my bad thoughts, don't bother trying to save me
I'll wait for the bell to ring that tells me school is out
from behind a bush I spring, and I scream and shout

  I don't mind
  17 and under
  It's a crime
  But it's worth the slammer

Their boyfriends on the football team don't really like my action
They try to run me out of town, I'm in need of police protection!
But when they turn their backs on me, I'm off the the same old scheme
Going for the big pick of a high school beauty queen

  I don't mind
  17 and under
  It's a crime
  But it's worth the slammer

  I don't mind
  I don't mind
  It's a crime
  It's a crime

Now really I'm not that bad a guy
but still I'm called a jerk ("You're a JERK!")
Hey - just because I slip and fall, I really look up their skirts
They may say the things to me that could make a guy feel hurt
But when they start to feel for me, that's when I begin to flirt!

  I don't mind
  17 and under
  It's a crime
  But it's worth the slammer

Young Love is a Bitch

This is a song about love .... young love

Johnny promised Jackie he would meet her after school
all his friends are watchin' so he tries to be cool
Meets her in the courtyard, stares into her eyes
and the sound of his voice makes her little titties rise
he says
  "Listen, Jackie baby, let me take you to the prom - 
   I'll even wear a suit if that'll turn you on.
   Let me put my arms around you,
   let me whisper in your ear
   the sweet words of love
   I know you want to hear."
Jackie starts to quiver, she begins to sweat
Johnny's only smiling 'cause he knows he got her wet
He starts to move in closer, her body starts to itch
and a little voice inside her tells her

Young love is a bitch
Young love is a bitch
Young love is a bitch
(tell her)
Young love is a bitch

Jennie's got a crush on her Spanish teacher
but all he does is treat her like a seniorita
She goes to school in minis, doesn't wear a bra
bodies like hers oughtta be against the law
She waits 'till class is over then she moves across the room
Teacher's getting nervous just from smelling her perfume
He looks her body over as she tells him, "Make a wish!"
And finally he takes her thinking

Young love is a bitch
Young love is a bitch
Young love is a bitch
(tell her)
Young love is a bitch

(ain't that a trip?)


   Remember when you're young and you're looking for affection
   Be sure to hold on to your heart
   Don't give in to love unless you're very well protected
   'Till your old enough to know better, stop before you start
   (Stop! Stop!)


WHEN I WAS JUST A BOY I ALWAYS TOLD A LIE
'CAUSE WHEN I CAN'T GET PUSSY IT ALWAYS GOT ME BY
BUT NOW THAT I'M A MAN I SAY THESE WORDS TO YOU
DON'T EVER, EVER, EVER
DON'T EVER LET 'EM HEAR WHAT THEY THINK IS TRUE

YOUNG LOVE, YOUNG LOVE, YOUNG LOVE, IS A BITCH
YOUNG LOVE, YOUNG LOVE, YOUNG LOVE, IS A BITCH 

Young love ... is a bitch, yeah
Young love ... is a bitch, is a bitch
Young love ... is a bitch, yeah
