Spontaneous Generation
05:52
|
|||
While some folks were having a me generation
We went and had ourselves a we generation
Some said degeneration,
It was THE generation
Of the Twentieth Century
The folks from the Cokes and Pepsi generation
Kept singin' bout my my my g- gee generation
But the we generation is the regeneration
Of the Twentieth Century.
Now a generation is a bunch of people
All born at the same time
But our generation is a big generation
We were all born at some point or another.
Before they began to discuss generation
We had ourselves a spontaneous generation
And the us generation was thus generation
Of the Twentieth Century.
This generation went to market
And this generation stayed home
And this generation had roast beef
And this generation had none
And this generation went we we we all the way home
Well, an you beat that?
No
I said, can you beat that?
I don't think so.
People talk about a blank generation
Puttin' money in the bank generation
Puttin' gas in the tank generation
Hoochie coo and hanky pank generation
People talk about a generation gap
When people talk, the generation rap
When people tip, the generation trap
That's when people trip into the generation trap
While people still talk about the past generation
And livin' life in the fast generation
There's a vast generation,
It's the last generation of the Twentieth Century.
'Cause while some folks were having a me generation
We went and had ourselves a we generation
Some said degeneration,
It was THE generation
Of the Twentieth Century
Of the Twentieth Century
La la la la, etc.
I don't care how old you are,
but you gotta get up in the mornin'.
I don't care how old you are,
but you polly wolly doodle all the day.
(The decadence of the decade
The decadence of the decade age.)

03:29
|

Stealin', stompin', stoopin', steppin' on the floor.
Readin', writin', rhythmatickin' rhythm back for more.
Crackerjackin' whippersnappin', leave 'em laughin',
what's been happen'in'?
People like it, people like it.
People like to dance
People want some fun
People be themselves
People be someone.
Tippin', toein', stoppin', goin' all the way
Eenie, weenie, meenie, miney, moein' whatcha say
M I S S I S S I S S I S S I P P
People like it, people like it.
People like to move
People move to sound
Sound they understand
People stand around.
Listen and dance to it
Rhythm romance to it
Isn't a stance to it
Just tonight to learn the rhythm
Rhythm and dance music
Fission and chance music
Now tonight while you've got the chance
To discover
Now that you listen
Sizzle and dance rhythm
It'll enhance rhythm
Whistle the chance rhythm
Leave tonight to think it over
With 'em is dance rhythm
Rhythm romance rhythm
Now tonight while you've got the chance
To discover
And if you're heart beats too loud
Girl, remember it's only the well of your being.
We go sailing down the rhythm of the room
Stealin', stompin', stoopin' steppin, sweepin' witcho broom
Tockin', tickin', funky chicken, easy pickin', finger-lickin'
People like it, people like it.
Sizzle and dance rhythm
It'll enhance rhythm
Whistle the chance rhythm
Leave tonight to think it over
With 'em is dance rhythm
Rhythm romance rhythm
Now tonight while you've got the chance
To discover
Now that you
Listen and dance to it
Rhythm romance to it
Isn't a stance to it
Just tonight to learn the rhythm
Rhythm and dance music
Fission and chance music
Now tonight while you've got the chance
To discover
Now that you listen

God made everything
He made everyone stop talking when they got too loud
Tickled their tongue when they got too proud
God does everything you need
He makes the trees go up and down
Who makes the seasons ring?
Just by waving his hands
Everything goes the way He wants
Just the way He plans
The President he's just a man
Plenty of food and plenty of phones
Maybe there be a nuclear war
He should know
I guess you had to be there
The telephone rings so much you don't need anything more
God has everything -- the whole world -- in His hands
It's a complicated situation
Rankles experts
Bamboozles authorities
The President is just a man and everybody else is just a man
And God has everything, the whole world -- in His hands
Now we're gonna hear the President talk
Clap your hands
Except God does everything,
He does everything the President say
Works by night and cleans by day
Maybe there be a nuclear war
Now we're gonna hear the President talk
He say:
(Say it!)
(Say it again!)
(Spell it!)
Maybe there be a nuclear war__
Some people just won't have
Gotta make a fuss about it, convince everybody else,
and force all the others.
Otherwise God wouldn't have made everything
(He's so nice!)
Now we're gonna hear the President
California to New York
He is talkin' doves and eagles now
He is thinkin' like a hawk
He is thinkin' Marx and Engels
And he is thinkin' nineteen forty one
Now we're gonna hear him talk
Now we're gonna hear the President talk
Don't listen what he says
He's forgot his fake book lyrics
Hey, take a tip from Mr. Les
He is talking without listening
He is seeing, not beholding
The President is not the Pres.
Now we're gonna see the President stumble
to show he's not blind
Don't know what he's getting into
He just don't want to get behind
If he goes, we won't go with him
And if we talks and we don't listen,
the President will change his mind.

House
03:36

There is a house in New Orleans they call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor girl
And, God, I know I'm one
Way down in New Orleans
Makin' way for men of means
Singin' blues and eatin' greens
Way down in New Orleans
My mother was a gambler
She sewed my pockets shut
My father was a family man
He was a you-know-what
The walls had eyes
The windows gave
The porch had a disease
The dust was dark
The girls were pale
Some jazz hung in the breeze.
It takes a heap of living in your house to make it home
It takes a family man to sing a family song
So, mothers, tell your children to do what she has done
Let 'em live in a house by the side of the road
and be a friend to man
Home is where your house is
Way down south where south is
Money where your mouth is
Way down yonder down in New Orleans

Gotta get down, gotta get down, etc.
Get up off your seat
Get up on your feet
Get off on the beat
You got to get up if you want to get down, etc.
Everybody's dancin', time to celebrate
People gettin' high, we're gonna rollerskate
Get on down, get off your feet and start to shake
If I knew you were comin', i'd'a baked a cake
Listen to the music and you start to groove
Everybody's dancin', we are on the move
Ain't nobody sleepy here, we're wide awake
If I knew you were comin', I'd'a baked a cake
Keep your feet a-movin' till you reach the top
Keep your feet a-movin' till they beg to stop
Keep your feet a-movin' till they almost break
If I knew you were comin', I'd'a baked a cake
Everybody's dancin', time to kick those feet
People gettin' down, they gonna meet the beat
Guys are on the prowl and girls are on the make
If I knew you were comin', I'd'a baked a cake
People gonna dance until their body's sore
Everybody knows it's a metaphor
We all gettin' down for heaven's sake
If I knew you were --

Arabs
We're Arabs in carriages
Carriages of Arabs
We collect the tariffs
We prepare the spare ribs
Swingin' low, sweet chariot
Swingin' like the cherubs
Caravans of harems
Harems in mascara
Harems on an exodus
Harems in hejira
Carried on a pilgramage
Crossing the Sahara
Mecca, our Jerusalem
Mecca, our Paris
A million pairs of bare feet
scale the staircase to the terrace
A million stares behold thee,
And, lo, none can embarrass
