If I don’t think about the fact that she left me
If I don’t see the pearls fall from the sky
If I don’t hear the accusations of blasphemy
If I don’t feel the tears in my eyes
This is the best day of my life

U say U’ll call me and then U don’t
I want 2 kiss U and then I won’t
We both do nothing and call it love
Is this love?
Is this love?

This morning I wanted a cup of coffee
But I didn’t have any cream
Last night I wanted some inspiration
But I didn’t have any dreams
Coupled with the fact that U belong 2 another
Whose name is self-righteousness
So evil girl, if one of us has a date with the undertaker
Which one will it be?
U can cry 4ever, but U’ll get no sympathy
This is the best day of my life!

I’ve got 3 chains of gold
And they will shine 4ever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down? No, they will never
I’ve got 3 chains of gold
And they will shine 4ever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down? No, they will never

Yes

Give back the chains
If U don’t, U will die
Nothing should come between U and I

I’ve got 3 chains of gold
And they will shine 4ever
If one of us has 2 go
U will go before me
If one of us has 2 go (3 chains of gold)
U will go before me (3 chains of gold)
U will go before me, baby (They will shine 4ever)
Cuz I sho’nuff say U will

(3 chains of gold)
(U will go before me) {x4}

I’ve got 3 chains of gold

They gonna shine? 4ever, 4ever, 4ever!
(3 chains of gold)

Walk on their side of the street
Don’t walk where it feels the best
Walk away from people U meet
Don’t talk 2 strangers unless
They walk the way U want them 2
Don’t walk unless the others do


I said walk like U could use a ride
Don’t walk with a confident stride
Then people will walk over U
But don’t talk till they tell U 2
Don’t talk if it’s against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That’s what they want cha 2 do
Yeah, that’s what they want U 2 do


Sha, na, na, na, na {x4}


Don’t talk if it’s against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That’s what they want U 2 do


So U gotta walk like U wanna make it
Don’t walk like U just can’t take it
G’on walk on whatever side U like
Don’t walk wherever they tell U 2 – psyche!
The sun will shine upon U one day
If U’re always walkin’ your way


Oh, the sun will shine upon U one day
If U’re always walkin’ your way (Hey)


Sha, na, na, na, na {x4}


(Checkin’ me now just walkin’)
Said I’m walkin’ on your side of the street (Checkin’ me now just walkin’)
I’m talkin’ 2 the people I meet (Checkin’ me now just walkin’)
Alright
Hey


(Alright)


Walk – don’t walk
Talk – don’t talk
Walk – don’t walk {fade out}
Talk – don’t talk
Walk – don’t walk
Talk – don’t talk

Oh Daddy
Ooh, sock it 2 me

See my brother talkin’ plenty head
Steady wishin’ he could sleep in your bed
Steady wishin’ he was in your car
Just a steady wishin’ that he was who U are

Chorus
Pop Daddy – Daddy Pop
Brother steady talkin’ while the girlies steady hop
Pop Daddy – Daddy Pop
Punchin’ in the rock and roll clock

(Oh Daddy dance)

See all the people wonder why
Set your goals high – high as your sky!
See the people runnin’ from the truth
Livin’ in the past when they need 2 be livin’ the new

Chorus
(Oh yeah)
(Hey, hey)

Pop – Daddy Pop
Pop – punchin’ in the rock and roll clock
Talk, guitar talk
(Oh Daddy)

Daddy Pop is the writer and love is the book
U better look it over before U overlook
1 – Oh Daddy
2 – Oh yeah
3 – Ooh, sock it 2 me
4 – Oh (Come on) U’re the best

See all my critics wastin’ time
Worryin’ about the Daddy while he beat U blind
Get your life 2gether – stop your cryin’
Whenever U say that U can’t, that’s when U need 2 be tryin’

Chorus
(Ooh) (Oh Daddy)
(Steady, steady, steady)
(Oh)
(Punchin’ in, punchin’ in)

What kind of fool is this, that thinks Daddy will miss?
What kind of boy would dis (huh) a list, as long as history itself?
I got grooves and grooves up on the shelf (Oh Daddy)
Deep purple concord jams (Oh yeah)
This party I will slam
I don’t think U understand (Ooh, sock it 2 me)
Whatever U can’t do – Daddy can (Oh)
The one and only Daddy Pop (Oh Daddy)
One and only Daddy Pop

Chorus
(Oh no my brotha)
(There ain’t no stopping)
(Check the record, yeah)
(Poppa Daddy’s coming)

Ring di di ding – somebody’s calling
“The jester’s on the phone!”
Oh yeah?
Rosie, tell him I ain’t home
Just one in a long line that wanna see me!
Daddy Pop

{Crowd noise}
Oh Daddy, oh yeah {repeat throughout rest of song}
Daddy pop {x4}

Daddy pop lead the band
As I step 2 the mic and lend a hand
2 the funky groove let’s make a whole house move
Yo’ band, let me hear U say ooh (Ooh!)
That’s right, we’re gonna turn this mutha out 2night
We ain’t leaving ’til they gonna have 2 turn off the lights
And if they do, then what we gonna do?
Flash it up cause we ain’t through!
Yeah, hit it – it’s time 2 get wit’ it, huh
I ain’t no angel so 2 hell with playin’ innocent
Those who came 2 party know just what I’m talkin’ about
So come on, y’all, wave yo’ hands in the air, everybody (Yeah)
Wave yo’ hands in the air (Yeah)
(Daddy Pop) {repeat}
4 the funkiest band in the land and don’t forget the P.A.R.T.Y.M.A.N.
Peace! Yeah Peace!
Like I said, right about now, NPG is like huh – out!
Hah!
