What you gonna do
When you get outta jail
I'm gonna have some fun
What do you consider fun
Fun, natural fun

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
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, but I'm not sleeping

I'm in heaven
With the maven of funk mutation
Clinton's musicians such as Bootsy Collins
Raise expectations to a new intention
No one can sing
Quite like Smokey, Smokey Robinson
Wailin' and skankin' to Bob Marley
Reggae's expanding with Sly and Robbie

Oops, yo mama said uh
Oops, yo mama said uh
Oops, yo mama said uh
Oops, yo mama

All that weekend
Boyfriend was missing
I sure am missing
Having him hold me in his warm arms
We were insane when we took cocaine
Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon
Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon

Steppin' in a rhythm to a Kurtis Blow
Who needs to think when your feet just go
With a hippity hop and a hippity low
Who needs to think
When your feet just go

Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon
Who needs to think
When your feet just go
Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon, Bohannon
James Brown, James Brown
James Brown, James Brown

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
