Michael Jackson We are the World (USA for Africa) Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
and it´s time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

We can´t go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will
soon make a change
We are all a part of Gods great big family
And the truth, you know,
Love is all we need

[Chorus:]
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones to make a brighter day
So let's start giving
there´s a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
it´s true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

Send them your heart so they'll

Michael Jackson Can't let her get Away Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

I Thought She Had To Have It
Since The First Time She Came
Who Knows The Situation
Mysteries Do Remain
And Now I Wonder Why
I Breakdown When I Cry
Is It Something I Said
Or Is It Just A Lie
(Is It Just A Lie)

I Try So Hard To Love You
Some Things Take
Time And Shame
I Think The Whole World
Of You
Your Thoughts Of Me Remain
I'll Play The Fool For You
I'll Change The Rules For You
Just Say It And I'll Do
Just Make This
Thing Come True
(Make A Dream Come True)

If I Let Her Get Away
Though I'm Begging
On My Knees
I'll Be Crying Everyday
Knowing The Girl
That Got Away

I Can't Let
I Can't Let Her Get Away
I Can't Let
I Can't...

We must bring salvation back.
Where there is love, I'll be there.

Michael Jackson Is it Scary Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

There's a ghost out in the hall
there's a ghoul beneath the bed
Now it's coming through the walls
Now it's climbing up the stairs

There's a spirit in the dark
Hear the beating of its heart
Can you feel it in the air
Ghosts are hiding everywhere

I'm gonna be
Exactly what you wanna see
it's you who's haunting me
Because you're wanting me
To be the stranger in the night

Am I amusing you
Or just confusing you
Am I the beast
You visualized
And if you wanna to see
Eccentric oddities
I'll be grotesque before your eyes

Let them all materialize

Is that scary for you baby
Am I scary for you oh
Is it scary for you baby
Is it...

Michael Jackson Dirty Diana Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Oh no. . .
oh no. . .
oh no. . .

You'll never make me stay
so take your weight off of me
I know your every move
so won't you just let me be
I've been here times before
but I was too blind to see
that you seduce every man
this time you won't seduce me

She's saying that's ok
hey baby do what you please
I have the stuff that you want
I am the thing that you need
she looked me deep in the eyes
she touchin' me so to start
she says there's no turnin' back
she trapped me with her arm

Dirty Diana, nah
dirty Diana, nah
dirty Diana, no
dirty Diana
let me be!

Oh no. . .
oh no. . .
oh no. . .

She likes the boys in the band...

Michael Jackson The Way You Make me Feel Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Hee-hee!
ooh!
go on girl!
aaow!

Hey pretty baby with the
high heels on
you give me fever
like I've never, ever known
you're just a product of
loveliness
I like the groove of
your walk,
your talk, your dress
I feel your fever
from miles around
I'll pick you up in my car
and we'll paint the town
just kiss me baby
and tell me twice
that you're the one for me

The way you make me feel
(the way you make me feel)
you really turn me on
(you really turn me on)
you knock me off of my feet
(you knock me off of
my feet)
my lonely days are gone
(my lonely days are gone)

I like the feelin' you're
givin' me
just hold me baby and I'm
in...

Do You Remember
When We Fell In Love
We Were Young
And Innocent Then
Do You Remember
How It All Began
It Just Seemed Like Heaven
So Why Did It End?

Back In The Fall
We'd Be Together
All Day Long
Do You Remember
Us Holding Hands
In Each Other's Eyes
We'd Stare

When We Fell In Love
Do You Remember The Time
When We First Met

Michael Jackson Break of Dawn Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Hold my hand, feel the touch of your body cling to mine
You and me, makin’ love all the way through another night
I remember you and I walking though the park at night
Kiss and touch, nothing much, let it blow just touch and go

Love me more, never leave me alone by house of love
People talk, people say what we have is just a game
Oh, I’ll never let you go, come here girl
Just got to make sweet love ‘til the break of dawn

[CHORUS]
I don’t want the sun to shine I wanna make love
Is this magic in your eyes and in my heart
I don’t know what I’m gonna do I can’t stop lovin’ you
I won’t stop...

Michael Jackson Happy Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Sadness had been close as my next of kin
Then Happy came one day, chased my blues away
My life began when Happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was

Happy, that's you
You made my life brand new
Lost as a little lam was I, till you came in
My life began when Happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was
(Till now)

Where have I been?
What lifetime was I in?
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until Happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I said a prayer so silently
Let Sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was
Till now

Happy, yeah yeah
Happy, oehoe happy

happy oh yeah Happy

Michael Jackson The Lost Children Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

We pray for our fathers, pray for our mothers
Wishing our families well
We sing songs for the wishing, of
those who are kissing
But not for the missing

[CHORUS 1]
So this one’s for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost
children, wishing them well
And wishing them home

When you sit there addressing,
counting your blessings
Biding your time
When you lay me down sleeping
and my heart is weeping

Because I’m keeping a place

For all the lost children
This is for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost

Michael Jackson Keep the Faith Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

If You Call Out Loud
Will It Get Inside
Through The Heart Of Your Surrender
To Your Alibis
And You Can Say The Words
Like You Understand
But The Power's In Believing
So Give Yourself
A Chance * 'Cause You Can
Climb The Highest Mountain
Swim The Deepest Sea, Hee
All You
Need Is The Will To Wart It
And Uhh, Little Self-Esteem
So Keep The Faith
Don't Let Nobody Turn You 'Round
You Gotta Know When It's Good To Go
To Get Your Dreams
Up Off The Ground
Keep The Faith, Baby, Yea
Because It's Just
A Matter Of Time
Before Your Confidence Will Win Out
Believe In Yourself
No Matter What It's Gon' Take
You Can Be A Winner
But You...

Michael Jackson Don't Walk Away Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Don’t walk away
See I just can’t find the right thing to say
I tried but all my pain gets in the way
Tell me what I have to do so you’ll stay
Should I get down on my knees and pray

[CHORUS 1]
And how can I stop losing you
How can I begin to say
When there’s nothing left
to do but walk away

I close my eyes
Just to try and see you smile one more time
But it’s been so long now all I do is cry
Can’t we find some love to take this away
‘Cause the pain gets stronger every day

[CHORUS 2]
How can I begin again
How am I to understand
When there’s nothing left
to du but walk...

Michael Jackson Come Together Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Here come ol' flat top
He come groovin' up slowly
He's got Joo Joo eyeball
He one holy roller
He got hair down to his knees
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoe shine
He's got toe jam football
He's got monkey finger
He shoot Coca-Cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Come together
Right now
Over me

He bag production
He's got walrus gum-boot
He's got Ono sideboard
He one spinal cracker
He got feet down through his knees
Hold you in his armchair
You can feel his disease

Come together
Right now
Over me
Come together babe
Come together babe
Come together
Come together

He roller coaster
He's got early warning
He's got muddy water
He one Mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see

Come together
Right now
Over me

Michael Jackson Tabloid Junkie Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

Speculate to break the one you hate
Circulate the lie you confiscate
Assassinate and mutilate
As the hounding media in hysteria
Who's the next for you to resurrect
JFK exposed the CIA
Truth be told the grassy knoll
As the blackmail story in all your glory

It's slander
You say it's not a sword
But with your pen you torture men
You'd crucify the Lord
And you don't have to read it, read it
And you don't have to eat it, eat it
To buy it is to feed it, feed it
So why do we keep foolin' ourselves

Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
Though everybody wants to
read all...

Michael Jackson Black or White Lyrics:

posted by aitypw

I Took My Baby
On A Saturday Bang
Boy Is That Girl With You
Yes We're One And The Same

Now I Believe In Miracles
And A Miracle
Has Happened Tonight

But, If
You're Thinkin'
About My Baby
It Don't Matter If You're
Black Or White

They Print My Message
In The Saturday Sun
I Had To Tell Them
I Ain't Second To None

And I Told About Equality
An It's True
Either You're Wrong
Or You're Right

But, If
You're Thinkin'
About My Baby
It Don't Matter If You're
Black Or White

I Am Tired Of This Devil
I Am Tired Of This Stuff
I Am Tired Of This Business
Sew When The
Going Gets Rough
I Ain't Scared Of
Your Brother
I Ain't Scared Of No Sheets...
