a world of water & fire

 
Burning Love == The Residents
Formely performed by Elvis Presley

Lord Almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Higher, higher
It's burning through to my soul
Girl, girl, girl, girl
You gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
I don't know which way to go

REF: Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With a burning love

2 Uuh, uuh, uuh,
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming
It must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning,
Burning and nothin` can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

REF

4 It's coming closer
The flames are reachin` my body
Please won't you help me
I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breath
And my chest is a-heating
Lord Almighty,
I'm burnin´ in a hole where I lay

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With a burning love

With burning love
With burning love
Ah, ah, burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love (4X)
Just a hunk, hunk



Und die musikalisch ziemlich verschiedene Version aus dem Album "The King & Eye Remixes"




Yes, they wanted this love to be burning through my soul.
They wanted my heart to go up in flames.
But, guess what, I was fire outside.
Yes...
And water inside.
So they had no chance.
Now I'm just exhausted from the act of being polite.
And...
I got another one!

Man's World == The Residents
Formely performed by James Brown

This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care

You see man made the cars
To take us over the world
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electro lights
To take us out of the dark
Man made the bullet for the war
Like Noah made the ark
This is a man's man's, man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care

Man thinks of our little baby girls And the baby boys
Man make them happy 'Cause man makes them toys
And aher man make everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other man
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Not one little thing
Without a woman to care

He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in the bitterness
He's lost, lost and .....




They can connect all the cables of this world to my brain. All they'll find out are things, already James Brown could have been telling them, if they'd listened to.
So now, I'm just exhausted from the act of being polite.
And I'm going to pray a little bit.
