Uptown Festival: Medley Songtext
Going to a go-go
Going to a go-go
No-no-no-no, yeah, yeah
Well, there′s a brand new place I found
Where people come from miles around
They come from every world and if you drop in there
You might see anyone in town
Going to a go-go (everybody)
Going to a go-go (come on now)
Don't you wanna go (yeah)
Oh, sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you
Oh, I can′t help myself
I love you and nobody else
Oh, you're in and out my life (in and out my life)
You come and you go (come and you go)
Leavin' just your picture behind
And I′ve kissed it one thousand times, hey, hey, hey, hey
Baby, everything is alright (uptight)
Out of sight (baby)
Everything is alright (uptight)
Out of sight
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over
Oh, think it over
I tried so hard to be patient
Hopin′ you'd stop this infatuation
But each time you are together
I′m so afraid of losing you forever
Stop
You're sweet (you′re sweet) as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings you've gone and left my heart in dreams
All you left (all you left) is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
You used to bring (bring) sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be
Now it′s the same old song
But with a different meaning since you've been gone
(Same) same (old song) song
But with a different meaning since you've been gone
Yeah
Love you, oh, baby
Oh, yeah, yeah
Now if there′s a smile on my face
It′s only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject
Don′t let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really, I'm sad, ooh, sadder than sad
You′re gone and I'm hurting so bad (I′m hurting really bad)
Like a clown I pretend to be glad (sad, sad, sad, sad)
Oh, yeah (sad, sad, sad, sad)
Now, there's some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
Tears of a clown when there′s no one around
Oh, baby
Ooh, the love bug done bit me
I didn′t mean for him to get me
Oh, get up in the mornin'
And I′m filled with desire
No, no, I can't stop the fire
Love is real live wire
Ooh, it′s a burning sensation
Far beyond imagination
Oh, love Is like an itching in my heart
Tearing it all apart
Like an itching in my heart
Baby, I can't scratch it
Ooh, this old heart of mine been torn a thousand times
Each time you break away, until you′re gonna pay
Lonely nights that come, memories that go
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside
Each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going
Oh, stop, I love you
It′s so hard time and weep for you
I love you, yes, I do
Yes, I do
Baby, love, my baby, love
I need you, oh, how I need you
All you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me, "What did I do wrong?
To make you stay away so long"
Baby, love, my baby, love
Been missin′ ya, oh, kissin' ya
Instead of breaking up
Let′s do some kissin' and makin′ up
Don't throw our love away
In my arms, why don′t you stay?
Ooh, yeah
Walking down the street (doo-wah, doo-wah-do)
When this boy started following me (just to flirt)
Though I ignored all the things he said (doo-wah, doo-wah-do)
He moved me in every way
With his collar unbuttoned by my side he was struttin'
Hey-yeah, he was really sayin' somethin′ (doo-wah, doo-wah-do)
He was really sayin′ somethin' (ooh, doo-wah, doo-wah-do, bop, bop)
Going to a go-go
No-no-no-no, yeah, yeah
Well, there′s a brand new place I found
Where people come from miles around
They come from every world and if you drop in there
You might see anyone in town
Going to a go-go (everybody)
Going to a go-go (come on now)
Don't you wanna go (yeah)
Oh, sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you
Oh, I can′t help myself
I love you and nobody else
Oh, you're in and out my life (in and out my life)

Everything is alright (uptight)

Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
