Lets Get Down And Dirty
Lets Get Down And Tight
Lets Get Down And Dirty
Coz I could go all night

You might hear a voice that's laughing
down in the street below.
You might hear a distant clapping
from ones that you'll never know.
You can't hold the music ransom.
You can't put a beat in jail
or lock up a revolution
at 5 hundred kisses bail.

*chorus*

You can put me in jail but you'll never arrest me
Your seven year plan would only depress me
There's only one heart that'll ever possess me
The moment is right.

An I ain't afraid of emotional disaster
I know what I want is to get what I'm after
And give it all back for a moment of laughter
and make it feel right

I see you at the bar and I'm hoping you're lonely.
I'd tell you my name but you already know me
Forget about the scene
And come on and show me.

Fun is a dance in gravel
stand below the poverty line
far as the eye can travel
soft as the hand can sign.

So meet me in the upstairs
back by the telephones.
I don't wanna live my whole life
after a series of tones.

*chorus*
