Lyrics: 

No!

I'm going down to Alphabet Street
I'm gonna crown the first girl that I meet
I'm gonna talk so sexy
She'll want me from my head to my feet

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yes she will
Yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm gonna drive my daddy's Thunderbird (my daddy's Thunderbird)
A white rad ride, '66 ('67) so glam it's absurd
I'm gonna put her in the back seat
And drive her to Tennessee

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Tennessee
Yeah, yeah, yeah, drive her

Excuse me, baby
I don't mean to be rude
But I guess tonight I'm just not, I'm just not in the mood
So if you don't mind (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I would like to watch

Yeah, yeah, yeah can I?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (can I, can I, can I, can I)

We're going down, down, down, if that's the only way
To make this cruel, cruel world hear what we've got to say
Put the right letters together and make a better day

Yeah, yeah, yeah, better days
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's O-O-K
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Maybe it's the only way
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cat, we need you to rap (no)
Cat, we need you to rap
Don't give to us slow
'Cause we know you know
New power soul
Gotta gotta gotta go

Talk to me lover
Come on tell me what you taste
Didn't your mama tell you
Life is to good to waste? (put your love down)
Didn't she tell you
That Lovesexy was the glam of them all?
If you can hang, you can trip on it
You surely won't fall (put your love down)
No side effects and
The feeling last for-ever
Straight up it tastes good
It makes you feel clever (put your love down)
You kiss your enemies
Like you know you should
Then you jerk your body like a horny pony would (put your love down)
You jerk your body like a horny pony would
Now run and tell your mama about that

And while you're at it tell your papa about this

Yeah-yeah

Put your love down there when you want to get shot

No (yeah, yeah)

Put your love down there when you want to get shot
Put your love down there when you want to get shot
Put your love down there when you want to get shot

Put your love down there
(Yeah)
Get home, Alphabet Street

No

L-L-L-L-Lovesexy

Yea, oh, Alphabet Street
Yea, oh, Alphabet Street

A B C D E F H I love you
