Im In The Clique

Im in the clique, Im in the clique
Im really slick, I know every trick
And I can get a chick, cause Im in the clique.
Get your greasy hands off the guitar,
Get your slimy seat off the drums,
Go and take a chair in the corner,
And wait until your time comes.
Maybe youre a wheel in your hometown,
Maybe youre the best on the block,
But by the time you make it in new york,
Your axe will be in hock.
Gettin in the door will cost a fin
Minimum is another three
It takes a year of heavy spending
Before they let you in free.
You may dress like everybody
But there the similarity ends
You need more than a uniform to be
In our little circle of friends.
Maybe I could give you advice
But what can I say to you?
Some people get it together
And some people never do.
Just try and get your foot in the door
And maybe, with luck, you may
Also be in a position to look
Down your nose on somebody someday.

It Takes Two To Tango (This Is For The Girls)

I'm in the clique, I'm in the clique
I'm really slick, I know every trick
And I can get a chick, 'cause I'm in the clique.
Get your greasy hands off the guitar,
Get your slimy seat off the drums,
Go and take a chair in the corner,
And wait until your time comes.
Maybe you're a wheel in your hometown,
Maybe you're the best on the block,
But by the time you make it in New York,
Your axe will be in hock.
Gettin' in the door will cost a fin
Minimum is another three
It takes a year of heavy spending
Before they let you in free.
You may dress like everybody
But there the similarity ends
You need more than a uniform to be
In our little circle of friends.
Maybe I could give you advice
But what can I say to you?
Some people get it together
And some people never do.
Just try and get your foot in the door
And maybe, with luck, you may
Also be in a position to look
Down your nose on somebody someday.

It's a clique and I think a clique exists in every business. There's a circle of people that are guaranteed to open a movie and we all know their names and whether they're right or wrong for the role.

Down With The Clique (LP Version)

First Verse:
Well now I guess it's time for me to wreck shop,
So show your peace while the beat drops,
And if you're in the house just throw your hands up,
And let me see my brothas and sistas spread luv
And if you're not down there's sumthin wrong see,
'Cause see my project homies, they got my back G,
Droppin' a old school with a new school..
PA's in the house and it's a good thang..
(chorus)
Well if you down with the clique,
let me hear you say (I'm down wit it)
(repeat 4X)
Second Verse:
Now it's a phone checker, I musn't do this
And if you didn't know I thought you knew this,
It took a little time but now it's on see
You been waiting for so long to beep me...hmmm...
So check check check it out, all the dogs in the house (woof woof woof),
So pump your fist in the air and say,
R. Kelly's on the track and it's a good thang
(chorus)
Well if you down with the clique,
let me hear you say (I'm down wit it)
(repeat 4X)
(break it down)
tonite is the night that I...
I take you boy and I put you in my good thang all night...
R.Kelly Rap:
First we have the Black ground posse in her clique
Then we have the funky second chapter in her clique
PA's in the house and yes you know they're in her clique
And all the project homies are down with the clique
Well now we have the double x-tra large in her clique
Plus we have the DA to the Smahd in her clique
Then we have the down town possee in her clique
Peace to the hood cause ya down with her clique
(chorus repeat til' fade out

Clique

clique
like a camera's snappy sound
you get a face on paper
you remember
pain.

clique
you hear the sound of clapping hands
exhorting the fame within your circle.

each to his name, his bias, and prejudice.
the bold line is drawn.

outside, they move around their circles too.
they're not sad.

those excluded, too, know how to find
themselves
they have their own feet and hands
their sticks
and carrots too,
to munch
in accordance with their own kind
the way how their teeth
are designed
their mouths spouting invectives
against those
not towing the line

'we have our guidelines' the ugliest of them all say that.

i, too, draw a circle of my existence.

in keeping myself in
i keep them out too.

there i take my own bed and pillow
and blanket.

to have a nice sleep alone.

Hollywood

They say people out in hollywood
Live their life out in black and white
Theyre living out a technicolor dream
Next day theyre a star overnight
Not like living in new york
Man, its tougher
Not like in london town
Boy, you suffer
Nobody give a break
When youre down on your luck
Everybodys on the take
When youre down on your luck
You cant make a mistake
When youre down on your luck
People out in hollywood
They got a lot of class
You see the boys strutting down the boulevard
Trying to make a pass
Not like in new york
Its high rise, its concrete and complex
Not like in london town
It reigns down on its subjects
Nobody give a damn
When youre down on your luck
Nobody understands
When youre down on your luck
Lady chance, she wont dance
When youre down on your luck
People out in hollywood
They can make it to the stars
They can reach the screen
Drive around in big expensive convertible cars
Not like in new york
All youve got is broadway
Not like in the west end of london
You cant make it no way
Nobody give a damn
When youre down on your luck
Nobody understands
When youre down on your luck
Youve got to strut your stuff
When youre down on your luck
You cant take it easy, it aint good enough
When youre down on your luck
Everybodys on the make
When youre down on your luck
Nobody give a fair deal
When youre down on your luck
Nobody understands my uncle sam
When youre down on your luck
Im ready for the dance
When youre down on your luck
I gotta make a dollar holler
When youre down on your luck

When an individual, a sect, a clique or a nation hates and despises another individual, sect, clique or nation, he or they simply do not know the objects of their hatred. Ignorance is at the bottom of it.

Is There Something I Should Know?

I made a run, I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year, maybe no go
I know youre watching me every minute of the day, yeah
Ive seen the signs and the looks and pictures
That give your game away, yeah
Theres a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same cos you dont let it show
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind, can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance when you walk through that door
Dont say youre easy on me, youre about as easy as a nuclear war
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same cos you dont let it show
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Please, please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow?
Can you see how much I die?
Every time it passes by
Please, please tell me now
What it takes to make you show
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?

New York Times

New york poor new york
New york poor new york
Cars choking your child to death
But you dont wanna see
Cause you only think about yourself
How blind can you be
New york poor new york
Sniper on the rooftop new york
New york poor new york
Not fit for a dog in new york
Everybody bites on the big apple
Leave the hungry in tears
But no one gives a damn no one really cares
How they feel theyre just paper people not real
You need a gun to walk into new york
Now youre broke and youre out on a ledge
Who can help you this time
Now youre down to your very last cent
Still youre askin me who was your friend
I was your friend
New york poor new york
Who turned the lights out in new york
New york poor new york
Just another blackout in new york
Girl dead on the 26th floor
But no one knew her name
Found her body behind the door
Too young for the game
New york poor new york
Devils in the subway new york
New york poor new york
New york poor new york
Talkin talkin talkin - watch out
Harlem touching midtown new york
New york poor new york
Talkin bout new york new york
Moneys getting tighter new york
Theyre burning the bridges to new york

You bring me round with your velvet hands

Gettin Too Heavy

Sitting here chillin with you (yeah)
Youre getting close boy
But Im playing it cool (cool)
I must confess
Im feeling you (feelin you)
But Im laying down some rules
Get one thing straight
I wont be played (no, no)
I dont get down that way
1 - you asked me once, I told you twice
When will you understand?
I asked my friends for their advice
They say girl dont give in
In you and me, I believe
But Im torn between
Its getting too heavy for me
Baby why you stress me
Like that (why you wanna stress me boy? )
Talkin bout what you have done in the past (yeah)
I dont take love so casually (mm-hmm)
So dont put that pressure on me
Baby just walk right out the door (right out the door)
Cuz Ive heard those lines before
Repeat 1
Youre telling me this would prove that I care
(its getting too heavy)
But if I waited baby, will you be there?
Will you be there?
There-er-er-er-errr
[breakdown]
You know I like you boy
But you gotta understand
That Im just not ready
Been real with you
But we gotta take our time (take our time)
And Im torn between
Im torn between
Its getting too heavy for me
Repeat 1
For me
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh oh, oh oh
In you and me, I believe
But Im torn between
Its getting too heavy for me
Its getting too heavy
Heavy, heavy, yeah

Cold As Ice

Youre as cold as ice, youre willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice, someday youll pay the price, I know
Ive seen it before, it happens all the time
Youre closing the door, you leave the world behind
Youre digging for gold, youre throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday youll pay
Youre as cold as ice, youre willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise, but someday youll pay the price, I know
Ive seen it before, it happens all the time
Youre closing the door, you leave the world behind
Youre digging for gold, youre throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday youll pay
(solo)
Cold as ice - you know that you are
Cold as ice - as cold as ice to me
Cold as ice
Youre as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know, yes I know
Youre as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know, oh yes I know
Youre as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know, oh yes I know
Youre as cold as ice... (to fade)

Nobody Knows You When Youre Down & Out

(jimmie cox)
Once I lived the life
Of a millionaire
Spending my money
Oh I didnt care
Taking my friends out
For a mighty good time
Oh wed drink that good gin
Champagne and wine
But oh just as soon
As my money got low
I couldnt find nobody
And I had no place to go
And if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
Im gonna hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Lord have mercy
Yeah, yeah, now listen
Now in your pocket
Theres not one penny
And all of them good friends
You found out you havent got any
Nobody come around
But the landlord and the taxman
Your ex-wife who says
She wants more alimony
Then theres a knock on the door
And its a woman you dont know
Says shes having your baby
Shell walk on in
But oh just as soon
As the money roll in
Here they all come sayings
That theyre youre long lost friends
But if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I believe, I believe Ill hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody, nobody, nobody

Vicious Circle

Youre caught in a vicious circle
Surrounded by your so called friends
Youre caught in a vicious circle
And it looks like it will never end
cause some people think that they like problems
And some people think that they dont
And for everybody who says yes
Theres somebody whos staring, saying dont
Youre caught in a vicious circle
Surrounded by your so called friends
Youre caught in a vicious circle
And it looks like it will just never end
cause some people think that its nerves
And some people think that its not
And some people think that its things that you do
And others think that you were cold when you were hot
They think that, that is what it was about
Youre caught in a vicious circle
Youre caught in a vicious circle
Youre caught in a vicious circle
Youre caught in a vicious circle
Surrounded by all of your friends

The Collective

They're all like minded,
they're in the group,
safely, together,
they dress the same,
follow the same rules,
the same beliefs,
never wavering,
never thinking
outside the box,
or ‘helicoptering in'
to look at the question
from a different perspective.
They're locked in
by each other
not rocking the boat
sticking to their rules,
together, in numbers
and I look at them
and wonder.
what would happen
if it all fell apart,
crumbled away
until one day
there was only one,
one little person,
standing up
saying
‘this is what I believe'.
and then I shake,
and then I quake
to think
that's all it takes
just one
at the right time
in the right place
under the right conditions
to ignite a hell hole!
It's the human condition,
the sticky clique,
empowering,
the collective.

Gimme Love (single B-side)

Love, love, love
I'm looking for love
Love, love, love
When I was only sixteen
Well, give it take a year or more
I've got to singing about
The life I've lead
And I threw it right out of the door
I've got to get some of
That heavy jive
That the old folks are talkin' about
So I strutted my stuff
To the local club
To see what I was leaving now
Looking for love, love, love
Looking, looking for love
Love, love, love
I took my seat at
The foot of the stage
And waited for the fun to begin
And there in the light
Stood this heavy chick
With the cutest babe
That I've ever seen
She smiled at me
She did her dance
Took me by surprise
The way she wiggled her hips
And she shook that ...
Right between the eyes
After the show she came
And sat down
Said: Hi son, what's your name?
I said: Never mind that
Think about this:
Loving's the name of my game
She said: That's alright
But it'll cost you, son
I said: Tell me what's
The price of the day
She said: Twenty dime
And a wedding ring
And everything will be O.K.

Say When

(john rich/paul nelson/larry boone)
Your hearts been broken, you dont wanna open up to me
But cant you see
All that youre needing is someone to believe in you
And when you are no longer afarid
Darlin Ill be just one word away
Say when, Ill be there by your side
For a day, for a year, for the rest of my life
I know youre not ready
But someday your hearts gonna mend
Ill give you love without end
Say when
Could be tomorrow, maybe a little farther down the road
Your heart will know
My love is timeless and youre gonna find its true
And no matter how long it takes
If it means holding you I can wait
Say when, Ill be there by your side
For a day, for a year, for the rest of my life
I know youre not ready
But someday your hearts gonna mend
Ill give you love without end
Say when
I know youre not ready
But someday your hearts gonna mend
Ill give you love without end
Say when, say when
