  Oh, oh my darling
 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
 The artist pays the price
 So you won't have to pay
 If only we would listen
 To what they have to say
 
 There are songs from wisdom
 There are songs from satan
 There are songs from lovin'
 And there are songs from hatin'
 
 There are songs from lust
 And there are songs from pain
 Some songs were done by chosen men
 Some from men, insane
 
 Groove, baby, groove on the light, one time
 Groove, baby, on the right
 Dance, baby, to the light this time
 Dance sugar, on the right side
 
 Groove, baby, groove on the light this time
 Groove, baby, on the right side
 Dance, baby, to the light, lookin' good
 Dance, baby, to the light
 
 Some songs will show which way to go
 If only you would listen
 Bad songs that turn you on
 Show you how much is missing
 
 Songs we're meant to listen to
 You're checkin' out the best
 Good songs were sent to men from God
 Help us pass the test
 
 Life is for learning
 And the purpose is joinin' up
 With the love of thousand bodies needed
 But your soul is never destroyed
 
 Your love, darling, this is all we desire
 And all they want is a little understanding, yeah
 Sometimes a song can prophesize a warning from the Master
 To make your soul listen to, make your learnin' faster
 
 The Devil have his special plan
 To make hot songs for sinners
 Thank God we'll turn it around
 And make good songs for winners
 
 Ay, did you know
 Some songs can corrupt your flesh to dust
 The only song you should live
 Are songs that you can trust
 The artist pays the price
