1. AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY

Open your heart, open your mind
A train is leaving all day
A wonderful trip through our time
And laughter is all U pay
Around the world in a day, oh!
Around the world in a day

Now dig...
Loneliness already knows U
There ain't no reason 2 stay
Come here, take my hand, I'll show U
I think I know a better way, y'all

Around the world in a day, ow!
(Listen 2 me now)
Around the world in a day
All the babies sing it now

Ooh la, la
Ooh la, la, la, la
No, sha, sha
No, no shouting every day (No shouting every day)
No shouting (No shouting)
No, no shouting
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
The little one will escort U
2 places within your mind
(The former is red, white, and blue)
Former is red, white, and blue!
(The latter is a purple climb)
The latter is a purple - come on and climb!

Around the world in a day, sugar (Oh, baby)
Around the world in a day
Come on, say it!
Around the world in a day
Say papa, I think I wanna dance!

(In summer she's sweeter)

Around the world in a day
Oh yeah!
All the little babies sing around the world
A government of love and music boundless in its unifying power
A nation of art 2 production
Sharing ideas, a shower of flowers


2. PAISLEY PARK

1 2, 1 2 3
Woo!

There is a park that is known 4 the face it attracts
Colorful people whose hair on one side is swept back
The smile on their faces, it speaks of profound inner peace
Ask where they're going, they'll tell U ?"Nowhere"
They've taken a lifetime lease on Paisley Park

The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color this place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U believe
Then come 2 this place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart

There is a woman who sits all alone by the pier
Her husband was naughty and caused his wife so many tears
He died without knowing forgiveness and now she is sad, so sad
Maybe she'll come 2 the park and forgive him
And life won't be so bad in Paisley Park

The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color this place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U believe
Then come 2 this place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart

See the man cry as the city condemns where he lives
Memories die but taxes he'll still have 2 give
(Who?) Whoever said that elephants were stronger than mules?
Come 2 the Park and play with us
There aren't any rules in Paisley Park

The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color this place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U believe
Then come 2 this place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color this place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U believe
Then come 2 this place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
(Paisley Park is in, yeah, your heart)

Your heart (Your heart)
Paisley Park
Your heart
Your heart
Your heart
(Say it ?is in your heart)
Paisley Park
Paisley Park
Paisley Park


3. CONDITION OF THE HEART

There was a girl in Paris whom he sent a letter 2
Hoping she would answer back now wasn't that a foolhardy notion
On the part of a sometimes lonely musician?
Acting out a whim is only good 4 a condition of the heart

There was a dame from London who insisted that he love her
Then left him 4 a real prince from Arabia
Now isn't that a shame
That sometimes money buys U everything and nothing?
Love - it only seems 2 buy a terminal condition of the heart

Oh - thinking about U, driving me crazy
Oh - my friends all say it's just a phase, but?
Oh - every day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard

There was a woman from the ghetto
Who made funny faces just like Clara Bow
How was I 2 know that she would wear the same cologne as U
And giggle the same giggle that U do?
Whenever I would act a fool, the fool with a condition of the heart

Oh - thinking about U, driving me crazy
Oh - my friends all say it's just a phase, but?
Oh - every single day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard

(There was a girl in Paris whom he sent a letter 2)
There was a girl?whom he sent a letter 2
(Hoping she would answer back)
She never answered back and now
(Wasn't that a foolhardy notion?)
He's got a condition of the heart


4. RASPBERRY BERET

1 2, 1 2 3, huh
Yeah

I was workin'part-time in a 5-and-dime
My boss was Mr. McGee
He told me several times that he didn't like my kind
Cuz I was a bit 2 leisurely
It seems that I was busy doin'somethin'close 2 nothin?
But different than the day before
That's when I saw her, ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door, out door

She wore a raspberry beret
The kind U'd find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her

Built like she was, huh, she had the nerve 2 ask me
If I planned 2 do her any harm, hmph
So looka here, I put her on the back of my bike and ah...
We went ridin'down by Old Man Johnson's farm
I said now overcast days never turned me on
But somethin' 'bout the clouds and her mixed
She wasn't 2 bright, but I could tell when she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks

She wore a raspberry beret
The kind U'd find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her

The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who U are
The thunder drowns out what the lightning sees, huh
And U feel like a movie star
Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest
But I tell ya, if I had the chance 2 do it all again
I wouldn't change a stroke cuz baby I'm the most
With a girl as fine as she was then
Lord, ras...

She wore a raspberry beret
The kind U'd find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
The kind U find, the kind U find, oh no no!
Uh huh, uh huh
Where have all the raspberry women gone?
Yeah
I think I, I think I, I think I love her!

She wore a raspberry beret
The kind U'd find in a second hand store

(Mm hmm)
Close my eyes
What's it like, what's it like inside your tamborine?

All alone by myself
Me and I play my tamborine

Trampoline

(Star of all my dreams - are U a good tamborine?)
Are U good? Are U bad?
Are U just unnecessary means?

Trampoline

But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard

America, America
Keep the children free

Freedom ?Love ?Joy ?Peace

8. THE LADDER

Once upon a time in the land of Sinaplenty
There lived a king that didn't deserve 2 be
He knew not where he came from, nor where he was going
He never once said thank U, never please

Now this king, he had a subject named Electra
Who loved him with a passion not contested
4 him each day she had a smile, but it didn't matter
The king was lookin' 4 the ladder

The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great 4 those who wanna go
(The reward is great 4 those who want 2 go)

A feeling of self-worth will caress U
(Everybody's lookin' 4 the answers)
The size of the whole wide world will decrease
(How the story started and how it will end)
The love of God's creation will undress U
And time spent alone, my friend, will cease

Everybody's lookin' 4 the answers
Of how the story started and how it will end
What's the use in half a story, half a dream?
(What's the use in half a story, half of a dream?)
U have 2 climb all the steps in between
(U have 2 climb all of the steps in between)
