Queen Latifah - Poetry Man

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah yeah

You make me laugh
'Cause your eyes they light the night
They look right through me, la la la la
You bashful boy
You're hiding something sweet
Please give it to me yeah

Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things alright, yeah yeah

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah yeah

You are a genie
All I ask for is your smile
Each time I rub the lamp, la la la la
When I am with you
I have a giggling teenage crush
Then I'm a sultry vamp, yeah
Sultry vamp

Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things alright, yeah yeah

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah yeah

Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things alright

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah
Ooh, yeah yeah

So once again
It's time to say so long
And so recall the cull of life, la la la la
You're going home now
Home's that place somewhere you go each day
To see your wife
To see your wife

Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things alright, yeah

Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things alright
