Roxanne (Puff Daddy Remix) (Sting & The Police)
featuring Sting Prazwell
[Puff]
Yeah ye ye yeah yeah Sting Bad Boy remix come on
[Pras]
Yo yo yo
Hey yo shake what ya mama gave you is her motto
pour out the bottle blow out the candle
too broke to hold too shallow to handle
get all today you never promised tomorrow
Yeah her moves remind me of kung fu flicks
Thick lips that contradicts rules of the game
she plays the politics
Red light special red light district
put on ya make up body all made up
Platinum played up Pearl Jam cut up
Roxanne Roxanne you don't really have to
put on ya red dress if you feeling kind of blue
She got the hots for the disco jocks
rock ya socks at the pop of the tops
Never get cool like to call it Glock
Twisted minded like Bob Zealot
Roxanne
(Roxanne Roxanne)
You dont have to put on the red light (ye ye ye yeah yeah)
Those days are over
You dont have to sell your body to the night (c'mon)(Roxanne Roxanne)
Roxanne Roxanne
Roxanne
You dont have to wear that dress tonight (remix)
Walk the streets for money
You dont care if it's wrong or if it's right (ye ye yeah)
Verse Two:
Yo what's the haps girl, dancing for the green paperback
Sitting at the bar drinking up Cognac
She steps in the room, dont know how to act
Sweet in emergence, similar to Similac
It was the hat
Cats wanna be around her shine
She wants to party, have a good time
She feels kind of hot me feelin' feelin' fine
Diggin' all her life just to get a gold mine
Bro making the streets she's the pimper's paradise
Jewels around her neck getting strong with the ice
She said I heard of ya crew I'm the number one fan
Of the refugees down from the islands
Driving the Bentleys with her pretty pretty friends
Sippin' colada every day is a weekend
Heard your name was Pras outta Brooklyn
And fifteen million place with your total sound scan
I loved you since I knew you (I like this part, Roxanne Roxanne)
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel (Roxanne Roxanne)
I won't share you with another boy (Ye ye ye yeah yeah)
I know my mind is made up (Roxanne Roxanne)
So put away your makeup (Roxanne Roxanne)
Told you once I wont tell you again
It's a bad way (Ye ye yeah, yeah)
Roxanne
You dont have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You dont have to put on the red light x2
Roxanne Roxanne I wanna be your man
Put on the red light
Roxanne Roxanne I wanna be your man
Put on the red light
Roxanne Roxanne I wanna be your man
Put on the red light
Repeat until end

Anyone who buys a ticket and if they don't hear 'Roxanne' or 'Every Breath You Take', I think they feel cheated. I always do those songs but we do them differently - the possibilities are limitless.
Every white man in this country has been raised with a false sense of power.

The Good Cops In 07
My first pleather jacket
In all its' fakeness
Bumble-bee yelow
Black stripes
I first heard Roxanne
She did put on that red light
She did hold me tight
When I saw you that Thursday night
Citizens Bank Park
A Philly twighlight
Memories, cheers, then the tears
For twenty-five years gone bye
A few beers, a few shots
Your voice-box rang
Like church bells sing
Sting, Stu and Andy too
Thanks boys
For the flashback reunion
With all three of you

The World's Not Waiting (For Five Tired Boys In A Broken Down Van)
this might just be a waste of time
but there's no one I'd rather waste my time with than all of my best friends
so start the car up, we'll all take turns but not for the worst
we're all "has-beens" and "never-were's"
and we're all in the back singing "Roxanne" just watching life pass us by
pass us by
as if we cared enough to try and catch up
enough to make up for lost time
we've been down, we've been out, we've been hanging 'round
tip our glasses to having no direction
start the van, get me out of this one horse town, waste this night

Cruising
Philip bailey, roxanne seeman, morris pleasure & sonny emory
Melodies without a sound kissing you
Million miles up off the ground its what you do..
Dont need no one to rescue me you feel so good
Nothing sends me there the way that you could
Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part
When youre making love with me
I want to be lost in your love night and day
And let the sight of every star light the way
Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part
Cruising to eternal mysteries
Cruising when youre making love to me
Making love with me
Rockets are blasting off
Time is set free
The way
Youre making love to me
Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part
Cruising to eternal mysteries
Cruising when youre making love to me

Dream Sequence
Written by ricky & marty wilde
Shadows across the floor
Memories fading in
Voices are far away
Now it can all begin
New york are on the phone
They want you here today
Was it a fashion show ?
Sorry they wouldnt say
Theres a world full of dreams
Lying on a pillow
Theres a world no-one knows
Wrapped up in her mind
(its all imagination)
Now she is back in school
(its the revolution)
Staring at broken glass
(do what we want you to)
Flicking the flies away
(total autonomy)
Watching the trains go past
Fighting the indian war
Cochise is closing in
Now she can touch his face !
Riding so close to him
Theres a world full of dreams
Lying on a pillow
Theres a world no-ones seen
Living in her mind
Sailing across a sea
Images on a screen
Watching the boats go by
Red merging into green
Roxanne dont run away
(youve been naughty girl)
I told you not to go
(stay in the garden)
Why do you run away ?
Mommy will sorry so

Divine
Philip bailey, roxanne seeman & ken barken
Youre a mystery, youre a true work of art
Like an answered prayer, like a light in the dark
Ooh, Im in ecstasy when youre next to me
Its the closest thing to heaven I could be
Tell me everything about you
Wanna get into your mind
Thinking this could be forever
Day and night, rain or shine
Chorus 1:
Divine
Girl, the way you know you make my sunshine
From the shadows you can make the moon climb
Ooh, the way youre loving me is so divine
Im remembering how the night was so clear
You were whispering Im so glad you are here
Ive always heard that love makes a man feel bliss
But I never dreamed that I could feel like this
Everything about you, baby
Got the full effect on me
Never seen a woman made so perfectly you must be
Chorus 2:
Divine
Girl, the way you know you make my sunshine
From the shadows you can make the moon climb
Ooh, the way youre loving me
Youre right on time
Divine
Something that these words could never describe
How I feel about you day and night time
Everything about you girl is divine
Bridge:
Baby, here in my arms
Let the night linger on
cause the magic of love is ours tonight
Givin strength to my life
cause the lovin is right
Tell me, are you an angel, baby

Take Care Of Yourself
Are you ready?
(yeah yeah)
Are you ready to rock?
(yeah yeah)
Do you wanna do it?
(yeah yeah)
Get down on it?
(yeah yeah)
Marching clock now he dont stop,
Seen it quite a lot
And he says take care of yourself,
Old man sighs, shuts his eyes
And leaves behind another life
Take care of yourself,
Millstones swing, grind your thing
Pay the tax and alimony.
Take care of yourself,
Raise that boy, hell go far
cos he had a real good teacher.
Take care of yourself
Truth dont go, dont go far
Sell a lie to any paper.
Take care of yourself.
Sleep too deep, zombie sleep,
And all alone it has to be.
Take care of yourself.
Peace of mind is hard to find
But he dont mind like you dont mind yall
Big t dont care that you dont mind
No she dont care and you dont matter
One nine nine oh here we go
May the next ten break the mould
Take care of yourself
Mister goods gone away
Looking out for number one says
Take care of yourself
Did she say where youd have to stay
When the partys over?
Can you face the longest march to come
Now you know youre not the number one?
Yeah yeah
(feel all right? )
Yeah yeah
(you know its packing in your mind? )
Yeah yeah
(but the hero says)
Yeah yeah
(I get blind anyway)
Yeah yeah
(doesnt matter to me)
Yeah yeah
(whatever you say)
Yeah yeah
(I got more than yesterday)
Yeah yeah yeah

Future Tense
(myles goodwyn)
Published by northern goody two tunes, ltd./capac - ascap
Each moments just a reflex
Response is just a motion
The pressure never ends baby
I hope it dont drive me crazy
I dont wanna be a poor boy
It dont help to say gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
I aint foolin myself now
All I know is what I feel
I know I dont like it
You cant disagree
Come on, say itll be alright
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
Future tense, gone too far
Future tense, a world apart
Future tense, more than a feeling in my heart
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I feel a little unbalanced
Between the pros and the con men
I try for satisfaction
You always let it slide
Every day is like the last day
Whatever happened to 50, 50, 50, 50
I dont have a solution
All I know is what I feel baby
I heard about the good life
Id like to give it a try
They say its gonna be alright
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
Future tense, is what I feel
Future tense, is what I see
Future tense, as much for you as it is for me
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
If you dont like somebody
Say leave me alone
Its just like a bad time
You have to make good on your own
Were racing through time now
Its all hit and run
You say its gonna be alright
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
Future tense, weve gone too far
Future tense, a world apart
Future tense, more than a feelin in my heart
Oh no (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh no (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh no (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Straight From The Heart
Philip bailey, eddie del barrio, fred washington & roxanne seeman
Only when my arms are holding you
Then I can close my eyes
And know our love is oh, so true
And softly like a warm and gentle rain
Something comes over me
Like nothing that I can explain
Memories in the past, they seem to fade away
Like a storm that leaves a new love in its place
So lets go on and dont look back
Cause every days another dream come true
For me and you
Cause in the dark, you shined your light on me
Straight from the heart, touching my desire,
Fill my heart with fire, only you inspire
Lets set our spirit free, sparkle in the light
When I hold you tight, everythings alright
Lets review the pages of my the life
Read from a silent heart
Of a man thats not ashamed
To tell the world how I cherish you
Cause a million years can never be enough
My dear
How I love you and Im wishin
Every moment that youre here
Cause I just want to hold you tight
To close my eyes, and feel the warmth of you
Come shining through
Cause in the dark, you shined your light on me
Straight from the heart, touching my desire
Fill my heart with fire, only you inspire
Lets set our spirit free, sparkle in the light
When I hold you tight, everythings alright
Ill cross my heart and soul to get to you
Your loves so deep, Ill reach till I get through
Cause God sent you to be this part of my life
And if the years bring days of cloudy gray
Ill pull you closer to my heart and say
