1984

One, two, three, four

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called "life"
Electric word, life
It means forever, and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you there's something else

Take on me (You've got to turn me around)
Take me on (And put your feet on the ground)
(Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on

Dig, if you will, the picture
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
(Co- co- co- co- co- come on)
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you, my darling?
Can you picture this?
(Come on)

People are people, so why should it be (Come on)
You and I should get along so awfully? (Come on)
People are people, so why should it be (Hey!)
You and I should get along so awfully? (Come on)

Uh-huh, uh-huh
(I'm talking to you, come on)
Ah-ha, ah-ha, doo-doo-doo
La, la, la, la-la (Uh-huh) (Come on)
Woo (I’m talking to you, come on)
Ah-ha, ah-ha, doo-doo-doo
La, la, la, la-la

Oh, oh, oh

You are an obsession (Uh!)
You're my obsession (Oh, oh, oh)
Who do you want me to be
To make you sleep with me?

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms too late to beg you
Or cancel it, though I know it must be

We're not gonna take it (Take on me)
(Bang, bang)
No, we ain't gonna take it (Take on me)
(We belong)
Oh, we're not gonna take it anymore (Take me on)
(Take on me)

Oh, we're not gonna take it (Oh yeah)
No, we ain't gonna take it (We belong)
Oh, we're not gonna take it anymore

It was the summer of '69 (We're not gonna take it)
Touched for the very first time
Me and my baby in a '69 (We're not gonna take it)
Oh!
