"I Want You Back"

   
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always make you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance is all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you it is on
(I want you back)
Oh I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepness night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want around

Let me tell ya now
Oh baby, all I need is one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you it is on

All I want...
All I need...
All I want!
All I need!

Oh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you
Baby baby baby baby baby baby!
(I want you back)
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
And let me live again!

Oh baby, I was blind to let you go
But now since I've seen you it is on
(I want you back)
Spare me of this cost
(I want you back)
Give me back what I lost!

Oh baby, I need one more chance, hah
I'd show you that I love you
Baby, oh! Baby, oh! Baby, oh!
I want you back!
I want you back!

"Maybe Tomorrow"

   
(The Corporation)

I don't know how many stars there are
Up in the heavenly sky
I only know my heaven it's here on earth
Each time you look into my eyes
The way you do, baby
Thank you, thank you, baby

My beautiful bird you have flown away
I held you too tight I can see
You're all I need to get by
No one else could make me cry
The way you do, baby

You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing
Gonna sing it to you
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow
You'll change your mind, girl

Maybe tomorrow
You'll come back to my arms, girl

You're all I need to get by
No one else could make me cry
The way you do, baby

You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing
Gonna sing it to you
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow
You'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow
You'll come back to my arms

You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow
You'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow
You'll come back to my arms

Baby I need you
Listen to me girl

"Stand!"

   
(Sylvester Stewart)

Stand! In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do.
Stand! There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere.

[Everybody say:]
Stand! For the things you know are right.
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight.
Stand! All the things you want are real.
You have you to complete and there is no deal.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Oom bah bah bah Oom bah bah bah

Stand! Stand!
Huh! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Stand! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya .
Stand! They will try to make you crawl.
And they know what they're saying makes no sense at all.
Stand! Don't you know that you are free?
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be.

[Everybody say:]
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya.
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya. [etc. to fade]

"Feelin' Alright"

   
(Dave Mason)

Seems i've got to have a change of scene
Cause every night I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it could have been
Left here on my own or so it seems
I've got to leave before I start to scream
Someone locked the door and turned the key

[Chorus:]
Feeling alright
I'm not feeling good myself
Feeling alright
I don't have to feel alright
I'm feeling good myself
Boy you sure took me for a ride
And even now I sit and wonder why
That when I think of you I stop myself from crying
I just can't waste my time
I must keep trying

I've got to stop believing all your lies
Cause there's to much to do before I die

[Chorus]

Don't you get to lost in all I say
But at the time you know
I really felt that way
But that was then and now you know its today
Lord I can't escape I guess i'm here to stay
Till someone comes along to take my place
With a different name and a different face

[Chorus]

"The Love You Save"

   
[J5:] Stop! Nanana! You'd better save it!
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it!

[Michael:] When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be It.
But chasing boys was just a fad
You crossed your heart you'd quit.

When we grew up you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back to grade school
You're doing the same old thing!

[Chorus:]
Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darling, take it slow
Or some day you'll be all alone.
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own!
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for the danger zone.

[Michael:] I'm the one who loves you!
I'm the one you need!

[Jermaine:] Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed!

[Michael:] They'll ruin your reputation!
They'll label you a flirt!

[Jermaine:] The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt, oh!

[Michael:] Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benjie held your hand he felt
E-lec-tri-ci-tee!
When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chimes.
Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your times!

[Chorus]

[J5:]
Slow down.
Slow down.
Slow down.
Slow down.

[Michael:]
S is for "Save it"
T is for "Take it slow"
O is for "Oh, no!"
P is for "Please, please, don't go!"

[Jermaine:] The love you save may be your own...

[Michael:] Some day you may be all alone...

[Jermaine:] Stop it!
[Michael:] Save it, girl!
[Jermaine:] Or some day you'll be all alone.

[Michael:] You'd better stop! the love you save may be your own!
[Jermaine:] Please, please
Or some day, some day baby,
You'll be all alone

Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed.

[Michael:] Stop! The love you save may be your own...

"Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing"

   
(Nicolas Ashford / Valerie Simpson)

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, no, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
(Ain't nothing)
Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ooh, I've got your picture
Hanging on the wall
But it can't see or come to me
When I call your name
(When I call your name)
I realize it's just a picture in a frame

I read your letters
When you're not near
But they don't move me
And they don't groove me
Like when I hear
(When I hear your voice)
Your sweet voice
Whispering in my ear
(In my ear)

No other sound is quite the same
As your name
(Quite the same as your name)
Your touch can do half this much
To make me feel better
So let's stay together

Ooh, I got memories to look back on
Though they help when you're gone
I'm well aware
(I'm well aware)
Nothing can take the place of your being there
(Being there)

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
(Ain't nothing)
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ooh, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
(Ain't nothing)
Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ooh, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

"Lookin' Through The Windows"

   
(Clifton Davis)

(Lookin' through the window)
(Lookin' through the window)
(Lookin' through the window)
(The window)
(Through the window)
(Lookin' through the window)

Lookin' through the windows
The window to your heart
Oh baby, yeah
I can see it's cloudy
The rain's about to start

Lookin' through the windows
(Lookin' through the window)
It seems I caused your fears
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And that little doubt, girl
(And your little doubt, girl)
And now it's bringing tears
(And it's bringing tears)

(Remember)
Just remember whatever makes you feel that way
Don't you worry 'cause I'm gonna stay
Right by your side
(By your side)
To keep on lookin' through the windows
Lookin' in your eyes

Looking through the windows
(Lookin' through the window)
Seems like the only way, yeah
I can't know your feelings
If you still love me today

(Remember)
Just remember whatever makes you feel that way
Don't you worry 'cause I'm gonna stay
Right by your side
(By your side)
To keep on lookin' through the windows
Lookin' in your eyes

"Don't Let Your Baby Catch You"

   
(The Corporation)

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around
You just might lose the best thing
That you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around

Oh, the nights are lonely
Twice as cold
Without my baby's hand to hold
My happiness is fading away
Just like a thief
I tried to steal a kiss
From another pretty miss
My baby was the price that I paid

Now listen, fellows
(Think twice)
Think twice if you have cheating on your mind
(Watch your step)
Remember
The punishment will fit your crime

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around
You just might lose the best thing
That you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around

Oh, I hope that now you let me be
Do right not wrong in full indeed
I'm gonna crawl back all the way on my knees
And if that's no use I'd get to move
And settle down and come to her
Oh, before I even say please
If I get one more chance
My life would be as good as you
And I would not forget the days
The sun would not shine through

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around
Oh, no
Can't you not, can't you not, can't you not, babe

Oh, don't let her
Oh, your baby catch you
You might lose the best thing
That you ever found

Tell about it, Mike

You're crazy about your baby
And she's crazy about you
Just think of what you'd do to her
If she was untrue

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
All right
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around
You just might lose the best thing
That you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around

Don't let it
Don't let it
Don't let it
Stop
Stop
Stop

Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around
You just might lose the best thing
That you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you
Fooling around

"To Know"

   
(The Corporation)

To know of life
(To know of life)
Is to know what I'm living for
Touch my hand
And, baby, I'm yours

To know of love
(To know of love)
Is to know that I live for you
To be in love
Is to be there with you

(Everyday)
Everyday means so much to me
But it all depends on you
Don't you know, oh, baby
We were meant to be
Oh, and life for me
Begins and ends with you

To know you're mine
(To know you're mine)
Is to know how it used to be
Yesterday is all I can see
That's how I know
Life can be beautiful
But it all depends on you
Now that you're gone, baby

(Since you've been gone)
Just not the same, baby
Since you've been gone
Just not the same, baby

To know of us
Is what I'm still living for
But it all depends on you
Baby, it all depends on you
(Baby, come home)
To know happiness
Is to know you're here in my arms
(Baby, come home)
Let me know, let me know, let me know
What it is to live again
(Baby, come home)
(Baby, come home)
