1. POP LIFE

What's the matter with your life?
Is the poverty bringing U down?
Is the mailman jerking U 'round?
Did he put your million dollar check in someone else's box?
Tell me

Mm, what's the matter with your world?
Was it a boy when U wanted a girl? (Boy when U wanted a Girl)
Don't U know straight hair ain't got no curl? (No curl)
Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

Pop life - Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - Everybody can't be on top
But life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

Tell me, what's that underneath your hair?
Is there anybody living there? (Anybody living there)
Can't get over if U say U just don't care (Don't care)
Show me a boy who stays in school and I'll show U a boy Aware
Dig it

Pop life - Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - Everybody can't be on top
Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

What cha puttin' in your nose?
Is that where all your money goes? (Is that where your money goes?)
The river of addiction flows
U think it's hot, but there won't be no water when the fire Blows
Sing it

Pop life - Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - Everybody wants 2 be on top
Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop

(Throw the bum out!)

Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - And everybody can't be on top
But life - it ain't real funky, baby, unless it's got that Pop


2. HELLO

Hello (Hello) Hello (Hello)

I tried 2 tell them that I didn't want 2 sing
But I'd gladly write a song instead
They said OK and everything was cool
Till a camera tried 2 get in my bed (Hello)
My bed (Hello) (Hello)

I was sittin' pretty with a beautiful friend (“Oh darling”)
When this man tries 2 get in the car
(“Hey Prince, come on, give us a smile, eh?")
No introduction, “How've U been?”
Just - "Up yours! Smile, that's right, U're a star!" (Star)

U call 'em bodyguards but I call 'em my friends
I guess I'm used 2 havin' 'em around
And cameras by nature like rewards
That's the trouble I get when I'm Uptown

I'm not afraid 2 die cuz I know there's a better place 2 go
(Don't be afraid cuz there's a better place 2 go)
I eat what I want, whole wheat toast
(U can eat what U want, anything is cool in moderation)
And I'm happy, and that's 4 sure

We're against hungry children, our record stands tall
But there's just as much hunger here at home
We'll do what we can if y'all try 2 understand
A flower that has water will grow
And a child misunderstood will go
Hello!
(Hello)

Everybody
We're against hungry children, our record stands tall
But there's just as much hunger here at home
We'll do what we can if y'all try 2 understand
A flower that has water will grow
And the child misunderstood will go
Our record stand tall, U know
Give us time and love will show
Hello!
