As you can see, I did not complete these notes in time for the release, but I promise it is a work in progress… just have a few other pertinent issues to address before I can get to the rest of my thoughts! Please check back again, LOVE JEFF :)

lyrics

Come all ye bitches, it’s a celebration
I’m gonna party like I’m on vacation
In 1999 (party!)
Got this groove on lockdown
Just like that guy who flew too close to the sun
Felt it was time to do my own Black Album
And you just can’t stop me now
I’m flying
I’m watchin’ little Nikki grindin’
They say, “Gay, act your age!”
(No way!)
I had a bubble bath with my pants on today
(CH) Hey girl, just your kiss
Could turn this frog into Prince
Hip hooray, my parade
The coming out of this Gay
If I could be Prince [repeat]

I held a séance for the prince of darkness
And this song was part of the deal
Rising up through the air, Darling Nikki
It was my anger and my bitterness
Come here, ye bitches
It’s a time for dancing
Summon up the purple
Get a taste of the action
‘Cuz you just can’t stop me now
I’m fine
(Oh yeah, he’s fine, he’s fine, he’s totally fine)
You try to funk me but I still get down
Got this groove on lockdown
They’re never building a wall between us [x2]; [CH, repeat]
