Lyrics:

'I'm so sorry, please forgive meWho do I pray to to straighten out this problem? (problem)Straighten out this problem (problem), straighten out my mind (Mind)Straighten out ...this crooked tongue...(x3)
My mind has wandered, from the straight and narrowMy mind has wandered from the flock you seeMy mind has wandered, the man just said soMy mind has wandered I heard it on TVAnd the flock has wandered away from me.
All around the world nowLike a big bright cherry cloudTraveling from home to homeTV sets and telephonesHere it comes just like a stormBathe in it and be rebornTime to let the world knowWelcome madness, ...say hello...(x3)
Like a wave we cannot seeWashing over you and meHiding here and hiding thereMadness hiding everywhereSuch a curiosityHere it comes to set us freePlenty left for you and meSay hello insanity
I am the virus, are you the cure?I am morally(morally), I'm morally impure(Impure)I am a disease and I am uncleanI am not part of God's well oiled machineChristian nation(Nation), assimilate me(me)Take me in your arms and set me freeI am part of a degenerate elite(elite)Dragging our society into the street -yeah-Into the abyss and to the sewer don't you seeThe man just told me, he told me on TV
Do you think you're better than meDo you want to kill me or befriend me
And the alcoholic bastard waved his finger at meAnd His voice was filled with evangelical gleeSipping down his gin & tonicsWhile preaching about the evils of narcoticsAnd the evils of sex, (sex) and the wages of sin (Sin)While he mentally fondles his next of kin and
My mind has wandered from the flock you seeAnd the flock has wandered away from meAnd he waved his hypnotizing finger at me
Let's imitate reality (Insanity)Let's strive for mediocrity (Insanity)Let's make believe we're all the same (Now that's for me)Let's sanitize our little brains (Insanity)
I'd love to take you home with me and tuck you into bedI'd love to see what makes you tick inside your pretty headI'd love to hear you laugh tonight, I'd love to hear you weepI'd love to listen to you while you're screaming in your sleep.
Christian sons, Christian daughtersLead me along like a lamb to the slaughterPurify my brain and hose down my soulWhite perfection, perfection is my goal
Do you think you're better than meDo you want to kill me, or befriend me
Christian nation(nation), make us alrightPut us through the filter and make us pure and white 'cause'My mind has wandered away from meAnd the flock has wandered, away from me
Let's talk of family values while we sit and watch the slaughterHypothetical abortions on imaginary daughtersThe white folks think they're at the top, ask any proud white maleA million years of evolution, we get Danny Quayle
All around the world nowLike a big bright cherry cloudTraveling from home to homeTV sets and telephonesHere it comes just like a stormBathe in it and be rebornTime to let the world knowWelcome madness, ...say hello...(x3)
I'd love to take you home with me, I'd love to tuck you inI wish I could protect you from the wages of our sinI'd love to hear you scream tonight, I'd love to hear you cryProtect you from the madness that is raining from the sky
Let's imitate reality (Insanity)Let's strive for mediocrity (Insanity)Let's make believe we're all the same (Now that's for me)Let's sanitize our little brains (Insanity)
I'd love to take you home with me and tuck you into bedI'd love to see what makes you tick inside your pretty headI wish that I could keep you in a precious Chinese boxOn Sundays I would pray for you so it would never stopI'd love to hear you laugh tonight, I'd love to hear you weepI'd love to listen to you while you're screaming in your sleepI'd love to soothe you with my voice and take your hand in mineI'd love to take you past the stars and out of reach of timeI'd love to see inside your mind, to tear it all apartTo cut you open with knife and find your sacred heartI'd love to take your satin dolls and tear them all to shredsI'd love to mess your pretty hair, I'd love to see you dead.'

Things That Make You Go Hmmmm.... - C+C Music Factory

Today is August 13th, 2022. The song of the day is "Things That Make You Go Hmmmm...." by C+C Music Factory.

 

Looks like this is another verbose song that has more characters than the comment section will allow, so the lyrics will be here instead:

I was at the crib
Sittin' by the fireplace
Drinkin' cocoa on the bear skin rug
The door bell rang - who could it be?
Thought to myself then started to shrug
Got to the door, ding dong, who is it?
My girl's best friend had payed me a visit
Sly as can be, tight dress and all
She knew that I was faithful
I really didn't have the gall
I tried to chilll - she made the move
Now I know my girlfriend wouldn't approve
I didn't realise my girl was settin' me up
Yo, my girl didn't trust me - no!
Yeah, but she lost control I wouldn't take the bait
I said chill baby, baby, chill baby, baby wait
My girl bustin' in caught us creating a boom
She said: "girlfriend"?

Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Here's how it started - just an example
Of how another brother can trample
Ruin your life
Sleep with your wife
Watch your behind
There was a friend of mine named Jay
Would come over late at night and say hey
I watched the fight
I thought he was alright
'Cause me and Jay were really, really tight
So damned close we had the same blood type
Months went by and my wife got big
We were havin' a child and I got another gig
So I let Jay move into the crib and chill
He had his own room and helped pay the bills
The time had come for the baby to come on the scene
It looked like Jay and I couldn't believe
Before my eyes in the delivery room
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
The things that make you go hmm
Robbie rob - break it down!
Give it to me, give it to me give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Seventeen and I was havin' a ball
Eleventh grade and yo I knew it all
I fell in love for the very first time
With this girl she really blew my mind
Inner sense and whole lotta class
Style that could give you whiplash
We said hello and my heart beat stopped
She was the world and I was on top
Time went by, she filled my universe
We made love, she said I was the first
My boy kept tellin' me yo, I don't know
I think your girl's been playing tic tac toe
I'll ask my girl I know she only loves me
Wasn't I the one who took your virginity?
The look on her face read sorrow and gloom
She said "yeah, why do you guys always ask that?"
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Hey ladies
Have you ever had a man
Go away for business, come back with a tan?
Comes home late at night from work
You cooked him dinner now you feel like a jerk
Sayin' he didn't have time to eat
And he's not even hungry, he wants to retreat
To the bedroom he said his head hurts
You're only makin' love in radical spurts
Mysterious calls and the phone goes click
You say to yourself: "I'm gonna hit him with a brick"
Ain't no way he could be cheatin' on me
I wonder who bought him those DVD's
Dressed to a T to hang with the fellas
Over at the guys and I'm getting jealous
Comin' home late smellin' like perfume (fume)
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go hmm
It's the things that make you go hmm
Things that make you go: hmm
