Respect

In another time, in another place You might know my name, you might see my face And see I'm more than the sum of my parts You might see me here, or feel me there Coming out of the sameness everywhere And know that something hungers in your hearts. I don't really want much No not much at all Just give me a reason To give you a call But the thing I'd really like most of all Is Respect. I like shiny cars I like expensive bars I want anything I can get - just the same as you Give me love or money Appreciate me honey But still I need Respect - just tell me what to do Don't leave me at home wasting time alone I really want to appear at the astrodome As the man we admire and support Raise up those big blue eyes like miniture skies Sell me all your alibis And I'll gladly keep the ball in my own court. Respect - It's what I want Respect - It's the thing I need Respect - From the lonely crowd Respect - Satisfaction garunteed. Respect opens all the doors Respect fills the Ego's pores Respect teaches a thing or two What will it take to earn some Respect from you? I don't really want much No not much at all Just give me a reason To give you a call But what I'd really like most of all Is Respect.
