Bumper To Bumper

(B-side to Wannabe. Written by Spice Girls/C. Dennis/P. Wilson)

I'll beep my horn for you, bumper to bumper, give way I'm coming through,
I'll beep my horn for you, bumper to bumper, give way I'm coming through.

Driving through the city, dirty nitty gritty,
Looking for a place to go, (yeah.) girls are feeling risky, (aah)
Feelin' kinda frisky, (giggle) come on baby let me go.

Your lover, your lover, you're driving me reckless,
Bumper to give me, alright you're gonna get this,
bumper to bumper, bumper to bumper, I wanna drive your body all night
I want a back seat lover, all right.

I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Give way I'm coming through, bumper to bumper.
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Can't take my eyes off you, bumper to, OH ( bumper. )

Looking but no stopping, (stopping) only window shopping,
Less you've got some goods to show, don't tell us that we're dirty,
Only being flirty, tops off and down and here we go!
Ohh!

You lover, you lover, you're driving me reckless,
Bumper to give me, alright you're gonna get this,
bumper to bumper, bumper to bumper, I wanna drive your body all night
I want a back seat lover, all right.

You know that
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Give way I'm coming through, bumper to bumper.
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Can't take my eyes off you, BUMPER TO BUMPER!.
(Lazy hazy summer days repeated in background)
BUMPER!
bumper to bumper,

Driving into the sunshine, driving into the sunshine,
Bumper!
Driving into the sunshine, driving into the sunshine,
Driving into the sunshine.

You know that
(Echo off)
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
give way I'm coming through, bumper to bumper.
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Can't take my eyes off you, bumper to bumper.
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Give way I'm coming through, bumper to bumper
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Can't take my eyes off you, BUMPER TO BUMPER.
I'd give my heart for you, bumper to bumper,
Give way I'm coming through, bumper to bumper.

Take Me Home

(B-side to Say you'll be there. Written by Spice Girls/Watkins/Wilson.)

 

There's no place I call height, There's no way in a mean street,
There's no high, low or medium, there's no little be.
So do your searching, until you're down, Then realise, you're on your home ground
(Echo off)

Sitting in a white room, dreaming of a life,
You have got me thinking, what is paradise.
Should I take an ocean drive, cooling from the sun,
Silver screen got me thinkin' this is how it should be done.

Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah,
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah.

Stand together alone, not knowing who you are,
Friendly strangely strangely friendly, would you keep me warm?
Would you keep me warm? You now, you could be your paradise,
Talk and keep me warm, you could have you're own dream life,
Step into your comfort side, comfort side.

Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah,
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah.

(Echo next 4 lines in background )
There nobody to take me home, cause I'm here, yes where I belong,
I'm nearly, cause I'm on my way, at my home it will always stay.
There nobody to take me home, cause I'm here, yes where I belong,
I'm nearly, cause I'm on my way, at my home it will always stay.

So all thats free falling falls, hangs, out of time,
You've got yours, I've got mine, should all this be so precious?
Maybe I should be a little humble? Slate of fear, cause I could stumble.
So do your searching until your down, cause your on home ground.
(Echo off)

(Continuous echo: take take take take me home, take take take me home.. )
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah
Take me home, there's no place I'd a rather be now, yeah
(Repeat last 2 lines x3 and fade )

One Of These Girls

(B-side to 2 become 1. Written by Spice Girls/Watkins/Wilson.)

(Ooow)
One of these girls is doin' their own thing
(Oh uh)
One of these girls is just not the same

We think she's sweet and pretty in pink
But you better beware, 'cause I ain't what you think
I'm always searching for a good time, night and day
She gets down in unusual ways
Gettin' my kicks, being naughty and cheeky
Dream on, babe your just freaky

Oh when we get together
We just come as a one
Doing mmm, mmm
And a whoa yeah

One of these girls is doin' their own thing
One of these girls is just not the same

Can't you see we're all playing a game
(Oh uh)

Taking pride in myself, in the clothes that I wear
She's only teasin' to make you stare
She likes to do what the boys do
Getting dirty on the pitch
Chatting with the Kop* Oh when we get together
We just come as a one
Doing mmm, mmm
And a whoa yeah

One of these girls is doin' their own thing
One of these girls is just not the same
I said, even though we're all doin' our own thing
Can't you see we're all playing a game
(Oh uh)

Pushin' in the clubs, queue jumping
Giving all the boys a grief
Giving lots of cheek and attitude
Keepin' our lovin' brief

Pushin' in the clubs, queue jumping
Giving all the boys a grief
Giving lots of cheek and attitude
Keepin' our lovin' brief

You think they've got it?
Well I've got it
You've always got it
No way, they won't get it
Ah, come on
Ohhh

Oh when we get together
We just come as a one
Doing mmm, mmm
And a whoa yeah

One of these girls is doing their own thing
One of these girls is just not the same

Can't you see we're all playin' a game
(Playin' that, oh, playin' that, oh)

One of these girls is doing their own thing
One of these girls is just not the same
(Playin' that, oh, playin' that, oh)

(Playin' that, o

Can't you see we're all playing a game

Spice Invaders

(B-side to Spice up your life. Written by Spice Girls/Watkins/Wilson)

Ahhh... relax your mind.
The spicy girls are here on the planet earth.
Are you too spicy?
YES!
(whistling) Aye-yoo!
This song is full of valid information. Information like (ring) never
wee with your knickers on.
Hold, hold (ring) a minute, that’s my phone! (ring) Hello?
Hello, um, about... I can't believe my... aaahhh
It's um, it’s a mad woman. Get lost!
Melanie's always on the phone.
I’m not always on the phone! I used to be always on the phone but now
I’m not cause I’ve got ear rot.
And she's always late.
No I’m not, it’s my driver, he drives slow. I like this bit.
(whistling)
(whistling) I’ve never been any good at whistling.
You can hum then, not whistle.
(whistling)
Uh, hum? eh ha
(humming)
Where’s Geri and Mel at this point?
I think they’re asleep.
I thought it was a bit quiet.
No, Geri's writin' a poem under a tree somewhere. And she's hugging that
tree. Hug that tree, Geri!
You’d never guess what, you’d never believe this. Alright listen to
this.
Oh... what is it, Geri? What is it? What is it?
Listen, listen listen!
Friendship often survives the relationship from which it was neglected.
What?
Ignoring your conscience allows you to justify everything! Don’t you
agree?
Geri, is you readin' that out of a book?
Yeah. Ha ha
(humming)
(ba, ba, bam)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la AHHHH!!!!!
That’s what you got to do when you get really stressed, you just go
AHHHH!!!!!

I should be over there eatin' my sweets, I think.
You're so cute. Ginger! You're just so cute.
Alright Ginge, how's your... beep!
No, it’s Ginger like Ginger Rogers. It’s not like "ginge".
Well, there’s nothing wrong with being ginger.
There is nothing wrong. I’m out of a bottle anyway.
ha ha ha
Baby, Posh and Ginger and we’ve got Scary and Sporty! Yeah!
(humming)
Mixed together in a cooking pot, you have the Spice Girls!
(humming)
Ba, ba, blah
(humming)
I want that Indian bit to come again. Where is it?
Ahh... we are the chosen ones...
(humming)
it didn't last very long, did it?
(ba, ba, bam)
(scatting) Lift your knee up, tap it to the left. Gonna lift your knee
up, tap it to the left.
That could be a new dance.
(humming)
(ba, ba, bam)
Ha, ha. We don’t wanna get in trouble now do we? No... I don't know what
you mean by that, though. I... you know... I tried to be defensive...
(ba, ba, bam)
(humming)
Exactly...
Exactly, exactly.
I quite like that.
Yeah, I do too.

Christmas Wrapping

(B-side to Goodbye. Written by Chris Butler. Originally performed by The Waitresses in 1981.)

"Bah!"
No, that's too strong
'Cause it's my favorite holiday
But all this year's been a busy blur
Don't think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush
Just because it is the season
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left from
Last year, world tour, aeroplanes and babies
We met some guys but never the time
Most of '98 passed along those lines
So deck the halls and trim those trees
Raise up the cups of Christmas cheer
I just need to catch my breath
Christmas with my mates this year

Calendar picture, frozen landscape
Chilled this room for twenty-four days
Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with!
Flashback to springtime, saw him again
Would've been good to go for lunch
Couldn't agree we were both free
We tried, we said we'd keep in touch
We didn't, of course, 'til the summertime
Out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
No, this time it was me
Sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar's just one page
And, of course, I am excited
Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it

(Chorus)
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year

(Chorus x2)

Hardly dashing through the snow
Cause I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-do's
A few cards a few calls, because it's R-S-V-P
No thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turned down all of my invites
Last fall I had a night to myself
Same guy called, halloween party
Waited all night for him to show
This time his car wouldn't go
Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind
Doing Christmas right this time

(Chorus)

Tesco has provided me
With the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh damn! Guess what I forgot?
So it's on with the boots, back out in the snow
To the only all-night garage
But when to my wondering eyes should appear
In the line that guy I've been chasing all year
"I'm spending this one alone," he said.
"Need a break; this year's been crazy."
I said, "Me too, but why are you?
You mean you forgot the papers too?"
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy e-ending

(Repeat Chorus and fade)

Step To Me

(Exclusive Pepsi single. Written by Spice Girls/Kennedy)

Why don't ya step to me
Let me take you for a ride (take you for a ride)
I'll take where you can run but you can't hide

Come on and step to me
Shame the devil, tell the truth
I can tell you don't know what to do

I can't believe what I heard yesterday
About your boastin' and lyin'
Whispering words you had no right to say
And now there's no use denyin' (yeah)
Big words and small promises
You're livin' in your dreams (ohhh)
Smell the coffee 'cause it's time to wake up
Sometimes the truth can be mean

Now it's time, come prove your words to me
If you think you've got what it takes
There's no time for your insecurities
I'm gonna wipe that smile off your face

Why don't you step to me
Let me take you for a ride (take you for a ride)
I'll take you where you can run but you can't hide

Come on and step to me
Shame the devil, tell the truth
I can tell you don't know what to do

I'm tired of hearin' from your cheap talkin' friends
Just how you run me around (ha)
I know you boys ain't nothin' better to do
Than try to keep your girl down
Small town, big attitude
Is more than just a state of your mind (yeah)
But you and me belongs to me and you
Cause honesty's so hard to find

Now it's time, come prove your words to me
If you think you've got what it takes
There's no time for your insecurities
I'm gonna wipe that smile of your face

Why don't you step to me
Let me take you for a ride (take you for a ride)
I'll take you where you can run but you can't hide

Come on and step to me
Shame the devil, tell the truth
Fooling yourself makes a fool out of you

Why don't you step to me
If you think you've got what it takes
I heard the rumour about your lovin'
Well, it's fake
Ch-ch-ch-check yourself
If you think I'm gonna stand for that
What do you think I am? Some kind of pussycat?
Chit chat to the girls and the boys you call your friends
Tell them that you've never been to the place where lovin' ends
You never graduated from the school of love, you see
So come on boy, why don't you step to me?

Now it's time, come prove your words to me
So, you think you've got what it takes
There's no time for your insecurities
I'm gonna wipe that smile off your face

Why don't you step to me
Let me take you for a ride (take you for a ride)
I'll take you where you can run but you can't hide

Come on and step to me
Shame the devil, tell the truth
I can tell you don't know what to do

Where Did Our Love Go?

(Performed during the 1998 World Tour. Solo by Emma Bunton. Written by B.Holland/L.Dozier/E.Holland,Jr.)

Baby, baby, baby, baby
don't leave me, ooh
please don't leave me
all by myself
I've got this burning burning
yearning feeling inside me, ooh
deep inside me, and it hurts so bad
you came into my heart

baby, baby, so tenderly
with a burning love
that stings like a bee
now that I surrender
so helplessly
you now wanna leave me, ooh
you wanna leave me

(Repeat 3 times)
ooh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
where did our love go?
don't you want me
don't you want me no more

ooh baby, baby, baby

Sisters (Are Doin' It For Themselves)

(Performed during the 1998 World Tour. Duet by Melanie B and Melanie C.)

Now there was a time when we used to say
that behind every great man there had to be a great woman
But in these times of change you know that it's no longer true
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
Cause there's something we forgot to say to you

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
standing on their own two feet and ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now this is a song to celebrate
The conscious liberation of the female state
Mothers, daughters and their daughters too
Woman to woman, we're singing with you
The inferior sex got a new exterior
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too
everybody take a look around
Can you see, can you see, can you see
There's a woman right next to you

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
standing on their own two feet and ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now we ain't making stories
No we ain't making plans
Cause a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man
Now there was a time(Now there was a time)
When we used to say(When we used to say)
That behind every great man there had to be a great woman
But in these times of change you know that it's no longer true
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
Cause there's something we forgot to say to you

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
standing on their own two feet and ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

We Are Family

(Performed during the 1998 World Tour.)

(Chorus)
We are family, I've got all my sisters with me
We are family, Get up everybody and sing
We are family, I've got all my sisters with me
We are family, Get up everybody and sing

Everyone can see we're together as we walk on by
And we fly just like birds of a feather, I won't tell no lie
All of the people around us they say, Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record, We're giving love in a family dose

(Chorus)

Living life is fun and we've just begun to get our share of the world's delights
High
High hopes we have for the future And our goal's in sight
No we don't get depressed, here's what we call our golden rule
Have faith in you and the things you do, you won't go wrong, this is our family jewel

(Chorus)

(How Does It Feel To Be) On Top Of The World

(Official 1998 world cup song for England performed by England United(Ian McCulloch from Echo & The Bunnymen, Simone Fowler from Ocean Colour Scene, Tommy Scott from Space and Mel C from Spice Girls))

How does it feel to be on top of the world
Now it's for real, you're on top of the world
You're the top of the world

Looking like it's gonna happen
Knowing that the time is right
With pride on our side and passion
We've got the glory in our sights

In streets all over the nation
Are goals we painted on the walls
Where all our hopes and expectations
Are the world inside a ball
Inside a ball

So how does it feel to be on top of the world
Now it's for real, you're on top of the world
You're the top of the world

These are the ties that bind us
Everyone is part of the team
Leaving our worries behind us
'Cause we're sharing the same dream
It's time to dream
Goals are flying in we've made the news
'Cause we were born to win we can't lose
We can't lose

It's time to dream
Goals are flying in we've made the news
'Cause we were born to win we can't lose
We can't lose

How does it feel to be on top of the world
Now it's for real, you're on top of the world
We're the top of the world

Looking like it's gonna happen
Knowing that the time is right
With pride on our side and passion
We've got the glory in our sights

In streets all over the nation
Are goals we painted on the walls
Where all our hopes and expectations
Are the world inside a ball
Inside a ball

So how does it feel to be on top of the world
Now it's for real, we're on top of the world
How does it feel to be on top of the world
Now it's for real, you're on top of the world

England, England forever England
Love you forever England

(Top of the world, top of the world,
top of the world, you're the top of the world,
you're the top of the world, top of the world)

(Melanie B's solo single. Featuring Missy Elliot. Written by Missy Elliot.)

Mel B:I'm the M to the E-L-B you know me.
Missy:I'm the M-I-S-S-Y, with an E.
Mel B:And I've got flows from overseas.
Missy:Well, how can you beep-beep with no keys?

Missy:And all my flows have been known to go blow.
Mel B:Well let me hit this one before I go.
Missy:Well I'll let you go if you say so

Boy I'm sick of you
Who me? Yes me. Yeah you know I'm a fool,
Oooh I'm a fool for you
Cauce I keep takin' you back as though I'm stupid like that
Yeah yeah you know we're through
But I can't say no and I never said no
Why I can't say no to yo, becauce you treat
me so wack and fact I want you back

(Chorus)
I think I want you back
Your love has made a deep impact
I know it might sound wack
But damn I think I want you back
Want you
I think I want you back
Your love has made a deep impact
I know it might sound wack
But damn I think I want you back

Boy I'm tired of you
Runnin' over me tellin' me what to do
Now what have I done to you
To make you s** a lot I though I made you hot
Now don't make me act a fool
I know I talk mad junk but I know what I want
What I truly want is you
And even though you're a mack true dat I
want you back

(chorus)
I think I want you back
Your love has made a deep impact
I know it might sound wack
But damn I think I want you back

You got me losin' my mind, my mind
You can't keep breakin' my heart
You got me drinkin' liquor in the mornin'
Sittin' all night at the bar

(Repeat chorus to fade)

Goodbye

(Written By Spice Girls/Stannard/Rowe)

No no no no, no no no no, no no no no,

Listen little child, there will come a day
When you will be able, able to say
Never mind the pain, or the aggravation
You know there's a better way, for you and me to be

Look for a rainbow in every storm
Fly like an angel, heaven sent to me

Goodbye my friend
(I know you're gone, you said you're gone, but I can still feel you here)
It's not the end
(gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear)

So glad we made it, time will never change it - no no no

No no no no

Just a little girl, big imagination
Never letting no-one take it away
Went into the world, what a revelation
She found there's a better way for you and me to be

Look for a rainbow in every storm
Find out for certain, love's gonna be there for you
You'll always be someone's baby

Goodbye my friend
(I know you're gone, you said you're gone but I can still feel you here)
It's not the end
(gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear)

So glad we made it, time will never change it - No no no no
You know it's time to say goodbye - No no no no

(bridge)

The times when we would play about
The way we used to scream and shout
We never dreamt you'd go your own sweet way

Look for a rainbow in every storm
Find out for certain love's gonna be there for you
You'll always be someone's baby

Goodbye my friend
(I know your gone, you said you're gone, but I can still feel you here)
It's not the end
(you gotta keep it strong before the pain turns to fear)

So glad we made it time will never never change it

No no no no - you know it's time to say goodbye
No no no no - and don't forget you can rely
No no no no - you know it's time to say goodbye
No no no no - and don't forget on me you can rely
No no no no - I will help, help you on your way
No no no no - I will be with you every day

My Strongest Suit

(From the soundtrack, AIDA)

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(oh oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Now I believe in looking like my time on earth is cooking
Whether polka-dotted, striped or even checked
With some glamour guaranteeing every fibre of my being
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect
From your cradle via trousseau to your death bed you're on view so
Never compromise accept no substitute
I would rather wear a barrel than conservative apparel
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(oh oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Staying in or hitting townwards, from the top and working downwards
I ensure that every stitch is stitched in time
Whether wig or hat or turban, whether clog, boudoir or urban
Not to strut your stuff outrageously's a crime
And the few who are invited to my wardrobe are delighted
As they wander through my things to find en route
That in negligée or formal I am anything but normal
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(oh oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(ooh)(oh oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Now you don't need a recital of the reasons why it's vital
That tonight my trappings will not be subdued
That from coronet to sandal no one else is worth a candle
That I couldn't make more impact in the nude
So bring me all my finest, most audacious, my divinest
Most revealing, most expensive and to boot
Most arresting, most heart-stopping, most free-flowing, most eye-popping
Because dress has always been my strongest suit

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(woo)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(ooh)(oh oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(ooh)(oh oh)
(My dress has always been, my dress has always been)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
(My dress has always been my strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere(ooh)(oh oh)
(My strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (ooh) (oh oh)
(Strongest suit, strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
(My dress has always been my strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
