Lyrics for Song: The Max
Lyrics for Album: The Love Symbol Album [1992]
Where are you
You can relax now, the Max is in control
Go, yeah, yeah
When my back is so far back it's on the other side of the wall
When half a chance is all I get if I get a chance at all
When the going gets tougher than the tough can go
I grind the axe, that's when I go, I go, I go to the max I go
The max, yo baby, tell me where the party's at
The max, yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack (I go)
The max, we can dance if you want to, but I might break yo back
The max, more funk for your buck, you can bet on that
When they tell me to walk a straight line
I put on crooked shoes
When they tell me that I can't live forever
I pay some overdues (kick it)
When they start makin' up a crazy rule
That's when I break a back
Cause when I go, I go, I go to the max, I go
The max, yo baby (oh yeah), tell me where the party's at
The max, yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack (oh, yeah, yeah)
The max, we can dance if you want to (ooh yeah), but I might break yo back
(to the max)
The max, more funk for your buck, you can bet on that
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Oh, yeah yeah!
(Dig it) when my body starts to shiver from the chill of
The scarlett sweat
When my lips eclipse the sun and the moon
Reflecting from the wet
When the blood of my love outraces
Every one of the stallions in your pack, that's when
You go, you go, you go to the max, you go
The max (to the max)
The max (ooh, get funky)
The max (get-get-get funky) (to the max)
The max (get funky)
Let's go
I think I'm gonna like this
Let's go (dance)
I wanna dance
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go (oh yeah, yeah)
I go to the max
I'm not afraid (oh my God)
I wanna dance
Then listen
When the going gets tougher than the tough can go
I grind the axe, that's when I go, I go, I go to the max, I go
The max, yo baby, tell me where the party's at
The max, yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack
The max, we can dance if you want to, but I might break yo back
The max, more funk for your buck you can bet on that
This is the max
Dear love, dear love, dear love
Forgive me for my sins
But you left me in such a cold, cold world to suffer in (kick it)
And contrary to popular belief
Even though one's life is brief
If you go there once you
Come again and again and
Let's go
[I'm so sorry for you]
This is the max
