BeckEye is Here to SatisfEye

I was checking my keyword analysis on Stat Counter again, and was amazed by a pattern that has been forming over the last few days. It seems that lots of people are finding my page while looking for the lyrics to "Dancing In Heaven" from the '80s SJP movie, Girls Just Want To Have Fun and "Joy and Pain" by Rob Base. Now, I have mentioned Girls Just Want To Have Fun and the catchy chorus of "Dancing In Heaven" in a previous post. I've used "Joy and Pain, Sunshine and Rain" as one of my post titles. However, I don't have the lyrics to either one of these songs on my blog. But since I always aim to please (or more to the point, I have nothing else to write about right now) I will post them for all those curious folks out there who are humming and singing the wrong words to these songs. Enjoy.

Dancing In Heaven (Orbital Be-Bop) by Q-Feel
(Are you Ready? Here We Go)
Slow-Slow- Quick Quick Slow
Slow-Slow- Quick Quick Slow

Countdown Its getting to the flight time
Night stars are shining in my eyes
My shoes are going to be the first ones
To dance deep up in the skies

Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)
Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)
(Kick it out)

Slow-Slow- Quick Quick Slow
Slow-Slow- Quick Quick Slow

I'll be the first to Bassa Nova
Ten thousand miles above my legs
You dear, my lady on the Radar
I'll bring a child to Outer Space

Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)
Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)

Hey, Here I am
I hear the Universe Sing
The Celestial Scream
I am not alone
Are you receiving me clear
There is Others out here

Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)
Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)

Hey, Here I am
I hear the Universe Sing
The Celestial Scream
I am not alone
Are you receiving me clear
There is Others out here

Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)
Dancing in Heaven I never thought I could get my feet this far
(Orbital Be-Bop)...

Wow. How did that never win a Grammy or an Oscar??

Joy and Pain by Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock
Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

Well I'm the new kid, I'm just comin' up
A lot of rappers think that I can't tear it up
Well I'm 'a show 'em and ignore 'em
And when they think I ain't lookin' I floor 'em

I mean take 'em out I keep groovin'
A slick bass line keep the beat movin'
They can't take it they just fake it
They wonder how the Rob Base make it
I get ill, you know the deal
Cuz this is how the Rob Base feels

Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

I keep smokin', hot like fire
You had the turn, now retire
Don't talk back, I'm not a new jack
Cuz I'm fresher than you, an' you're whacked

I keep tryin', I'm not lyin'
Up to number 1 is where I'm flyin'
I won't slow down cuz I'm the new kid
With the devastatin' sound that hits
In the house where I used to practice
No one knew the Rob exists, but now
I'm gettin' greedy, don't lead me
The wrong way cuz is just might, might, might
Bring me down, I'll have to fight to get back up
Move away cuz I just won't slack up

Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

Now, I go to shows to watch other MCs rock
And if they're good, I don't knock
The way they perform cuz I like to see a good show
After that, go play C-low, y'know
Cuz I'm a leader, no I'm not a follower
And MCs like you I swallow 'em

So don't look and try to judge me
Because you think that I'm another MC, well
I'm the new kind, I just moved around
But that don't mean I can't rip up the town
Me an' my boys, we make noise
I hate MCs that think they're with toys
I'm hittin' harder than any other MC
Who try to come up and go against me

Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

Not from the old school or from the new
Applaud the boom, do what you want to
Talk to me then try to put me down
We used to be cool now we don't hang around
Used to be friends but now we're foes
Ask me why, man, no one knows
Maybe jealousy between you and me
Could be the fame, could be the money
I'm goin' for mine and I don't really care
Cuz the spotlight Rob Base don't share
I'm the headliner of this show
And you're just a kid and you need to grow, because

Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain
Like sunshine and rain

Alternate title: It's Hard Out There Bein' a Sucka MC
