Genius of Love (Live)
[Intro: Chris Frantz]
I'm just a murder weapon! Comin' at you right now, ladies and gentlemen, the Tom Tom Club, so check it out!
[Interlude 1: Chris Frantz]
Ha!
Shock!
Shock!
Shock!
Shock!
HOOOOOO!
Uh-Huh!
Check it out!
[Verse 1: Tina Weymouth]
(Whatcha gonna do when you get out of jail?)
I'm gonna have some fun!
(What do you consider fun?)
Fun, nasty fun!
[Interlude 2: Chris Frantz]
The girls can do it too, y'all!
[Chorus 1: Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz]
I'm in heaven
With my boyfriend, my laughing boyfriend
There's no beginning, and there is no end
Time isn't present in that dimension (Sure ain't!)
He'll take my arm
When we're walking, rolling and rocking
It's one time I'm glad I'm not a man
Feels like I'm dreaming when I'm not sleeping
[Interlude 3: Chris Frantz]
Hahahaha!
Oo-Ha!
Shock!
Huagh!
Shock!
Huagh!
Shock!
Check it out!
[Verse 2: Tina Weymouth]
All the weekend
Boyfriend was missing
I sure am missing
Having him hold me in his warm arms
We went insane when we took cocaine
[Interlude 4: Chris Frantz]
Psychedelic and Funkadelic!
Uh-huh!
And everything is just jumping outta sight!
All night!
Check it out!
[Verse 3: Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz]
Stepping in-a rhythm to-a Kurtis Blow
Who needs to think when your feet just go?
With a hippity-hop, with a hippity-ho
Who needs to think when your feet just go?
(Bohannon!) Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon (Bohannon)
Who needs to think when your feet just go?
(Bohannon!) Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon
[Interlude 5: Chris Frantz]
Ha!
James Brown, James Brown! Yeow!
James Brown, James Brown! Yoooo!
He still is the Godfather of Soul, y'all, so check it out!
Hah!
Feels good to me!
[Chorus 2: Tina Weymouth]
If you see him
Please remind him, unhappy boyfriend
Well, he's the genius of love
He's got a greater depth of feeling
Well, he's the genius of love
He's so deep
[Verse 4: Chris Frantz]
Freeze!
Looks frozen to me!
Who dat?
Who dat?
Now who dat tryin' to be bad?
You mother!
Who dat?
Who dat?
Now who dat tryin' to be bad?
You mother!
Who dat?
Who dat?
Now who dat tryin' to be bad?
You mother!
Who dat?
Who dat?
Everybody! Rock the house!
Yeah!
Uh-huh!
Oo-ha!
[Outro: Chris Frantz]
Okay that's it for the Tom Tom Club, nice to be here!
We gotta change back into the Talking Heads!
So when I say "bye," we gotta go!
Okay!
Okay bye!
(Thank you, nice to be here!)
