Tangerine

Tangerine 

queen of day and night

queen of dying ice

queen of the well to do

queen of me and you

queen over what you poses

queen over what you said

over what you never meant

of whatever you spent

of what you never had

queen over me and you

when she's through

if she ever ever would

she's in controll

makes you turn and roll

makes you laugh at your lies

makes you cry out of sight

she drinks your wine

Tangerine

queen of my life

over ev'ry inch I move

queen when she's through

if she ever ever would

Laughter

when all the words have been said

an' ev'ry move has been made

I can only say 'get with it

an' stay with it

laughter didn't die, 

don't be yesterdays paper, 

yesterdays' people always just a breath away

don't be somebodyelse's news, entertainment

be that rock in the street that was never turned

be bold, be proud, don't sell out

don't be somebodyelese's clown sometimes

you got to slow down take a rest, a breath

collect your strenght, up your beat

stay with it

laughter didn't die 

happiness is the price for resisting a black world

where laughter did die see a bright mornin' 

bring a smile to your eyes, your face

  has a soft embrace cause laughter

is alive an' kicking coming to fill

your need today
