The Prince - BBC Live Session - 27 August 1979 John Peel Show
Buster he sold the heat
With a rock-steady beat
An earthquake is erupting
But not in Orange street
A ghost dance is preparing
You got to help us with your feet
If you're not in the mood to dance
Step back, grab yourself a seat
This may not be uptown Jamaica
But we promise you a treat
Buster bowl me over with your bogus dance
Shuffle me off my feet
Even if I kept on running
I'd never get to orange street
There's not much left to say
For the man who set the beat
So, I leave it up to you out there
To get him back on his feet
Buster bowl me over with your bogus dance
Shuffle me off my feet
Even if I kept on running
I'd never get to orange street
Bring back the—
Who is the—
We want the—
Bring back the Prince
With a rock-steady beat
An earthquake is erupting
But not in Orange street
A ghost dance is preparing
You got to help us with your feet
If you're not in the mood to dance
Step back, grab yourself a seat
This may not be uptown Jamaica
But we promise you a treat
Buster bowl me over with your bogus dance
Shuffle me off my feet
Even if I kept on running
I'd never get to orange street
There's not much left to say
For the man who set the beat
So, I leave it up to you out there
To get him back on his feet
Buster bowl me over with your bogus dance
Shuffle me off my feet
Even if I kept on running
I'd never get to orange street
Bring back the—
Who is the—
We want the—
Bring back the Prince
