Lyrics

Welcome 2 the power of surrender
First things first
U must surrender your expectation
4 those of u expected 2 get your purple rain on
U in the wrong house
See, we're not interested in what u know
But what u are willing 2 learn
Come on, y'all, uh!
Leave that blood alone
Don't u know dead blood kills interferons
Npg, are u ready?
Come on now, ow!

We 'bout 2 get deep 2night y'all
And that's the only way that we can rise up
Rainbow children, are u in here?

On the trombone, mr. greg boyer
Warm it up, greg, warm it up

Say candy, what u think?
Candy, does he need a passport?
Can we let him stay?
I'll have 2 search him first, that's what
We loving it greg, come on, y'all, whoo!

Say maceo, they trying to describe funk
I don't know if u can describe if it ain't funky
Come on, maceo, blow your horn
Y'all know who that is? act like u know
Say, "maceo blow your horn" (maceo blow your horn) {x3}
Maceo, maceo (maceo, maceo)
Ow, yeah yeah
Yeah
Don't hurt 'em, baby, don't hurt 'em
Hold on, hold on, yeah, come on y'all
Yeah yeah

If u drove up here in a little red corvette
U might be surprised at what u gon' get
Portland, can u hear me, 2night?
Yeah yeah
Whoo

On the keyboards, the master, renato neto
Oh, now I know he's gotta check his passport, whoo!
Let it rock
Ah, check it out
Yeah, watch me now

U've been randomly selected to be searched
Can I get any volunteers?
U must remove your shoes
We gon' get funky
On the drums, john blackwell

Aw, u know we don't mean nobody no good
1, 2, 1, 2, 3

I got a question 4 ya
Is it better 2 give or 2 receive (it's better 2 give)
Alright then, then give up your seat 2 this person back here in the back
Come here, sister in the red
I'ma call your bluff
Can she have your seat?
Alright

Is it better 2 be a leader or a follower?
Better 2 be a leader or a follower? (a leader)
A leader? 2 bad
Who thinks it's better 2 be a follower?
U?
Follow me
Have a seat right there
I'ma play the guitar 4 u, alright?
Can I get u anything {x2}
U cool?
