Lyrics
UMF

Here we stand in the shadow of the master plan
Makin' touble wherever we can, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up
Can't you see this boy is going cheap - knockdown to a basement deal
But I really won't stop till I get to the top
Take it from me, I'm waiting here on my knees
And I love the way you tease me (oh) such a wonderful person
Don't play rough - it's easy when you know your stuff
Say please and sure enough, so kind, I'm makin' love to the ultimate mind
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby
You could feel a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We could tell the world we're fooling around
Ultimately, I'd say she's toying with me
It's a case of wait and see, but right now I'm gonna keep my pants on
A to Zed, she's doin' it to my head
We don't need to go to bed, you'll find, to make love to the ultimate mind
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Put it to me, baby (you could feel a love)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Wanna wrap myself in you, baby (well tell the world)
Talk me 'round, let's do it right here and now
I don't want you cooling down, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
We could fit reality's two-way split personality
Life's a bitch, but I'm fine, making love to the ultimate mind
Heaven's bent, we're completely innocent
We all got to pay the rent, and in time we learn to compromise
Talkin' tall, but I feel invisible
Can you see me after all that I said, there's only one thing for it
Take a look, put it to me, baby
You could feel a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We can tell the world we're fooling around
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) You could be a love come tumbling down
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) I just want to wrap myself in you baby
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) We could tell the world we're fooling around
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) You could feel a love come tumbling down
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) I just want to wrap myself in you baby
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) We could tell the world we're fooling around
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Come on, take a look (put it to me baby)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) I'm making love to the ultimate mind
