|
Don't have to humble yourself to me, |
|
I ain't your judge or your king |
|
Baby, you know i ain't no queen of sheba |
|
We may not even have our dignity, |
|
This could be just a powerful thing |
|
Baby we can choose you know we ain't no amoeba |
|
Chorus: |
|
Are you ready for the thing called love |
|
Don't come from me and you, |
|
It comes from up above |
|
I ain't no porcupine, |
|
Take off your kid gloves |
|
Are you ready for the thing called love |
|
I ain't some icon carved out of soap |
|
Sent here to clean up your reputation |
|
Baby, you know you ain't no prince charming |
|
We can live in fear or act out of hope |
|
For some kind of peaceful situation |
|
Baby, how come the cry of love is so alarming ...chorus |
|
Bridge: |
|
Ugly ducklings don't turn into swans |
|
And glide off down the lake |
|
Whether your sunglasses are off or on |
|
You only see the world you make |
|
Chorus outro: |
|
Are you ready for the thing called love |
|
Don't come from me and you, |
|
It comes from up above |
|
I ain't no porcupine, |
|
Take off your kid gloves |
|
Are you ready for it |
|
Are you ready for the thing called love |
|
Don't come from me and you, |
|
It comes from up above |
|
I ain't no porcupine, |
|
Take off your kid gloves |
|
Are you ready for it |
|
Are you ready for love, baby |
|
Oooh yeah babe |
|
Are you ready for love |
