Lyrics - Paid In Full by Eric Burton

This is a journey into soundthis is a journey into sound
A iourney which along the way will bring to you a new colour
New dimensionnew value.
When all is ready
I throw this switch;
Pump up the volvmepump up the volumepump that beat.
Please
Sirwould you please mind saying that again?
You make me feel so good!
We interrupt this broadcastto bring you a special news bulletin
From our on the spot task force:
Ohmy goshthe music just turns me onhe's a sweet soul brother!
Thinking of a master plandance with the recorddance with the record
Thinking of a master plandance with the recorddance with the record
Thinking of a master planthis ain't nothing but sweat inside my hands.
So
I dig into my pocketbut all my money's spent
So
I can leave while
I'm coming up the place.
So
I start my missionleave my residence
Thinkin' how can
I get some dead presidents
I need money!
I used to be o stick-up kidso
I think about all the devious things
I did.
I used to roll uproll uproll up
I used to roll uproll uproll up
I used to roll upthis is a hold up.
Ain't nothin' funnystop smilin'you still don't nothin' move but the money
But now
I've learned to earn'cause
I'm righteous.
I feel greatso maybe
I might just search tor a 9 to 5
If
I strivethen maybe
I'll stay alive.
So
I'll walk up the streetwhistling thisfeelin' out of place'
Cause mando
I miss a pen and a papera stereoa tapeor
Me and
Eric
B. and a nice bia plate of fishwhich is my favourite dish.
But without no money it's still a whish'
Cause
I don't like to dream about gettin' paid.
So
I dig into the books of the rhymes that
I made
Tonight is the test to see if
I got pullhit the studio'
Cause
I'm paid in full.123ah123ah.
Pump up the volumepump up the volumepump that beat.
