George Clinton
Garry Shider Tribute
[Interlude: George Clinton, Linda Shider]
No loudspeaker but I'mspeaking loud, yeah
Ass-kicking truth out to the crowd, with no voice
No, you ain't got no choice
Got about thirty seconds to get your ass on the dancefloor
And them wreckless eye-ballin', get up off me
Don't be threatening me with a good time
You picked a blind time to change your mind
Don't act like you don't hear me
If you ever get the opportunity, take it
Ah, you never get a second chance to make a first impression
You can't threaten me with a good time
But um, this here funk, you wanna believe it and take its suggestion
'Cause what's about to happen right now, you gonna wish you had been there
When it first went down
Damn, I wish I could sing
I'd the make the funkiest sounds your ears would ever wanna hear
Don't believe your lying eyes
Especially when this is a non-verbal communication
Don't be looking at what I'm saying
Um, I got a speech impediment in my penmanship
And um, I stutter in sign language
And I got a lisp
Look both ways 'fore you cross my mind
Pick a fine time to go blind
Never get a second chance to make a first impression
(Time) Time ain't going nowhere 'cause time can't walk
There never seems to be enough time
Time won't tell 'cause time can't talk
So let me take this time and say what's on my mind
True love takes time, and now some things we must define
Like love should be faithful
It's gentle, defined
Time waits for no one
'Cause if being is what it's about, I is
And as it is, so shall it be
You know they say that time waits for no one
Ask 'em what is this — what is this?
But if you wait for me, we'll share eternity just one more time
Ah shit
Time waits for no one
I thought you was in charge of the dance floor, why they dancing so slow?
