Give it strength.
Although words,
rhythmic words,
trickle from the rim of my first eye and drop from the
tip of my nose.
Although melodic word drips from my hips,
finger,
toe,
tips,
and lips.
Although there be words here,
words there,
words rip roaring everywhere.
All I really
hear is music.
Music.
Music.
Music.
Music.
Music.
Now this is the side of the funk where none visit.
There's no way back from the shores where I drifted.
Man, this side of the funk is so chill.
I said this side of the funk is so ill.
See, this side of the funk is home.
Come groove to the side of the funk where I'm from.
My side of the funk is on key.
Rhythm is the side of the funk where I be.
Groove to the funk of the beat and you'll
see the dark side with funk and melody.
I've seen so many sides of the funk I can't pause.
And once you see one side of the funk,
you've seen them all.
While some sides of the funk exterminate,
our side of the funk permeates.
Funk on my side, this way beyond snail.
One way from my side of the funk,
you wouldn't expect.
Yeah,
rhythm be inspiring.
You gotta love the way the groove is high wired live.
Come on,
rock the vibe on this side of the funk where we reside.
So I sing,
sing a lost song found.
Baptized with yesteryear's tears.
Christened by wide awake visions so ancient that birth be their age.
Lost songs found only in the screams of my dreams.
Lost songs floating in the cleavage of the middle passage.
Lost songs buried in the bowels of a lost people.
Found only where defiled horizons become virgin again
in the consummation of infinitely exalted dreams.
Which side of the funk are you from?
Which side of the funk are you from?
Sing,
sing a lost song found resounding from that place where
you are no longer bound and hurt is no longer your name.
Sing,
sing a lost song found that we all may be free.
This is the side of the funk when I'm busy.
There's no way back from the shores where I drifted.
Man, this side of the funk so chill.
Search and see this side of the funk making no gain.
My side of the funk is on key.
Rhythm is the side of the funk where I be.
Groove to the funk of the beat, you'll see.
The dark side of the funk and melody.
Which side of the funk are you from?
Which side of the funk are you from?
Which side of the funk are you from?
Which side of the funk are you from?
Sing,
sing
a lost song found resounding from that place where you
are no longer bound and hurt is no longer your name.
I wish I'd never been born the wrong song.
I wish I'd never,
never,
never,
never,
never,
never,
never,
never,
never sung.
Which side of the funk do you baby?
Until you close your eyes.
Which side of the funk do you * frown?
Which side of the funk are you from?
Which side of the funk do you scream?
I'm from the sun, funk.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Now it's wet.
Now it's wet.
Now it's wet.
Oh, now it's wet.
That's funk.
That's funk.
That's funk.
That's funk.
That's funk.
Smell that?
Black market's in shape!
Time for a Burton's Cut,
the second film of a second..
