Joy in Repetition |
He liked to frequent this club down up on 36th |
Pimps and thangs like to hang outside and cuss for kicks |
Talking to no one in particular, they say «The baddest I am tonight» |
Four letter words are seldom heard with such dignity and bite |
All the poets and the part time singers always hang inside |
Live music from a band plays a song called «Soul Psychodelicide» |
The song’s a year long and had been playing for months when he |
Walked into the place |
No one seemed to care, an introverted this-is-it look on most of their faces |
Up on the mic repeating to words, over and over again |
Was this woman he had never noticed before he lost himself in the |
Articulated manner in which she said them |
These two words, a little bit behind the beat |
I mean just enough to turn you on |
For every time she said the words another one of his doubts were gone |
Should he try to rap with her? |
Should he stand and stare? |
No one else was watching her, she didn’t seem to care |
So over and over, she said the words til he could take no more, (no more) |
He dragged her from the stage and together they ran through the back door |
In the alley over by the curb he said tell me what’s your name |
She only said the words again and it started to rain (rain, rain, rain) |
Two words falling between the drops and the moans of his condition |
Holding someone is truly believing there’s joy in repetition |
There’s joy in repetition |
There’s joy in repetition |
There’s joy in repetition |
There’s joy in repetition |
She said love me, love me, what she say? |
She say love me, love me |
Joy, why don’t you love me baby, joy, why can’t you love me baby |
Joy, come on and love me baby, joy in repetition |
Alright, joy in repetition |
Alright, joy in repetition |
Alright, joy in repetition |
Alright, joy, all my wishes add up to one |
Love me, joy, Love me, joy, Love me, joy |
Love me, Love me, joy, joy, joy in repetition |
Joy, joy in repetition |
Joy, joy (love me) in repetition |
Love me, love, joy, joy, joy in repetition |
Joy, and I’m gonna say it again, joy, joy, and I’m gonna say it again |
Joy, I’d like to go way up high and say, Love me, joy |
I’ll say Love me, joy |
Joy, joy in repetition, joy in repetition |
There’s joy in repetition |
