Just Funnin'

(album: Kiss This World Goodbye - 1978)

Don't smoke, it's bad for your health!

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, does your garden grow?
Mother Hubbard's empty cupboard all the children know
Take a recess from the process of these tension times
And find a space all can trace to a nursery rhyme

We're just funning
Just funning
Just funning (keep it right there, one more time)
Just funning

As children, people, all is fun, nothing there to fear
But once grown we're afraid, all is just too real
I wonder how it would be to mix the two
As grown-up children, we could still play hooky too
Here we go now!

Talk to me, talk to me, one more time
Play for me, makes me wanna sing y'all
Play for me, let that music ring (one more!)
Play for me, makes me wanna sing y'all
Play for me, let that music ring (give it up!)
Funning, funning (cha...!)

It's always the simple things that take you down
That's why we've come to bring this happy sound
So clap your hands, stomp your feet, this is what you do
Let this humping groove we laid get through to you
A good vibe!

Just funning (it's good!)
Just funning
Just funning
Just funning

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, does your garden grow?
Mother Hubbard's empty cupboard all the children know

Cha! (Don't look at me in that toddler voice!)
Here we go now, here we go now
Cha! Sing, y'all
Play for me, let that music ring
Play for me, makes me wanna sing y'all
Play for me, let that music ring (keep it comin'!)
Play for me, makes me wanna sing y'all
Lay with me, two can turn to three
Well alright! (cha!)
Keep it coming... well alright!

Sing, y'all
Play for me, let that music ring
Play for me, makes me wanna sing y'all
Play for me, let that music ring
Scream! (a-ha!) Scream, just scream!
Yeah... (smokin'!) I'm screaming... (oh yes, oh yes)
Oh, light's on... that was fun
