Tom Tom Club - Measure Up Lyrics
If you live in the city or you live in the bushLove is a thing that you just dont rushLook at my boyfriend and then youll see what I meanIm not gonna blow it by spoiling his dreamI can see that apple high up in a treeIm not going to rock it, let it fall to meSpeak of the devil and hell walk right inIf he talks to me Ill just give him inTake a little measure, take a little measureMeasure of my heartMeasure upThe shark could eat meOr I could eat the sharkMeasure upTake a little measure, take a little measureMeasure of my soulMeasure upIf theres still cold water, then Im running coolMeasure upIf you live in the mountains or down by the seaLove is a thing to make you make your heart beatI went for a ride, I just jumped to my feetI smile so hard, you can see all of my teethThe boy fills me with such energyIll play this hand intuitivelyWell ignore the problems that destroy the restTurn good to better, and better to bestTake a little measure, take a little measureMeasure of my heartMeasure upThe shark could eat meOr I could eat the sharkMeasure upTake a little measure, take a little measureMeasure of my soulMeasure upIf theres still cold water, then Im running coolMeasure upIf you live in the desert or among the treesLove is a thing to take at your ease? ? ? survive the wasteWell serve the time for the rest of our daysWell see all the places that weve never beenNo matter where our love will beginI know hes not the only fish in the seaBut, man-oh-man there is no other for meTake a little measure, take a little measureMeasure of my heartMeasure upThe shark could eat meOr I could eat the sharkMeasure upTake a little measureMeasure of my soulIf theres still cold water, then Im running coolMeasure up
