Elegant Slumming lyrics

[chorus]
La vida loca.
La vida loca. [x2]

[chorus] [x2]
La vida loca.

Amor y arte. Bailando en la arena.
Los hombres del mundo.

[chorus] [x2]

Un mondo un poder universal.

[chorus] [x2]

Los hombres del mundo. Amor y arte.

[chorus] [x2]

[chorus 1]
Go take the fast line baby, you travel so light.
The fast lane mother, your bark is your bite.
Fast lane baby, it's all such a gas.
Fast lane honey, you wave as you pass.
Get busy one time.

I got a packet, I keep it for my mind.
I'm so impressive so handsome and so kind.
There's people wanting to talk to me all day,
there's people hanging on every word I say.

The world can beat me black 'n' blue,
it can hurt so much it's just not true.
Down and out and down at heel,
but it sure can't change the way I feel.
I feel a strength so deep within
a love to wash away the sin.
Like the sound of the sea deep within a shell
to make your heaven when all around is hell.

[chorus]
All manner of things can make me sing.

It's called dull life and it's showing at a town near you.
It's called real life, believe me every word I say is true.
Life's not cheap you know so priceless next to death,
live it while you can, live it every breath.
Straight lines. Black and white. A silent exhibition.
You don't have to be a prisoner of your own ambition.

Melody of life. We got a melody of life.

You've done me wrong,
Your time is up
You took a sip (just a sip) from the Devil's cup
You broke my heart, there's no way back
Move right outta here baby
Go and pack your bags
Just who do you think you are?
Stop acting like some kind of star
Just who do you think you are?
Take it like a man baby
If that's what you are
CHORUS:
'Cause I'm moving on up
You're moving on out
Movin' on up

Our love, our love, our love. Is a natural thing. [x2]

Take a breath and wonder why such things exist at all.
A moment in time. A love so sublime.
Like a yellow field in June. An eclipse of the moon.
A river flowing through the land. A boy and girl are holding hands.

Our love, our love, our love. Is a natural thing. [x2]
Like water from a spring it's such a natural thing. [x2]

Intro:

One night in heaven. One night in heaven. x2.

Sometimes I get to thinking. While you are far away.
just how much I miss you and how time it ticks away.
So sad when we are fighting, too much tension too much hate.
Sometimes I need reminding, before it gets too late.
Just one moment in my day. Take me up to a place
so far away in your heavenly space.

Chorus:

I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house. [x4]

Boy there's so many things to give.
I've been aware of your charms for so long
and there's nothing that you can do
to stop me from coming around, round
to your house. [x4]

I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house. [x2]
I'll be your queen upon a throne in your house.
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house.

Well a strange thing happened to me yesterday.
I looked at your stars and ooh I saw the Milky Way.
And if you could feel just half as much as me.
Then I wouldn't be just another leaf on your tree.
Well I never thought I'd feel this way.
You are my life, my night and day.
It's such a thrill deep down inside.
Just too much love for me to hide.

Chorus:

(Dennis Lambert/Franne Golde/Duane Hutchins)

Someone to count on in a world ever changin'.
Here I am, stop where you standin'.
What you need is a lover, someone to take over.
Oh baby don't look any further.

Strange when you think of the chances
that we've both been in a state of mind.
Too cool to be careless. Looking for the right thing.
Oh baby don't look any further.
