Specialist (Black Session)

You make me lose my buttons, oh yeah, you make me spit
I don't like my clothes anymore
We're spending time and money, yeah, you're colder than yourself
Now we're moving, now we're taking control

You make me lose my buttons, oh yeah, you make me spit
I don't like my clothes anymore
You take me to New Orleans, yeah, you put me to the test
I know what my heart is for

You reach out for a blanket, I say, "Girl, you've got something
I love how you wear it"
Now we're spending time and money, yeah, you're colder than yourself
Now we're moving, now we're taking control

And love will get you down

My love's a laboratory, I set all my pets free
So, baby, you should sleep with me
I make trips to the bathroom and my friends don't have true grit
I am speckled like a leopard

Put a lid on Shirley Temple, yeah, you make sleek kills
Yeah, you travel, you travel
You park me in your Buick, you sing songs into my lips
Well, I am speckled like a leopard, just like a leopard

And love will get you down
I love the way you put me in the big house
I love the way you put me in the big house

If I get there early, will it be the right time?
Our heaven is just waiting so put your hand into mine
If I get too surly, will you take that in stride?
Our boat is just there waiting, so put that little hand in mine

And speak when you're spoken of
Catch up on your sleep, girl, when you wear that body glove
You're acting on initiative, you're spelling out your love
You shouldn't be alone in there, could be above ground

All I want is to be the very best for you
Oh yeah, all I want is to do the very best by you

Oh, there's time, be no life of crime
Don't rain on me tonight

Circle around me now, baby, it'll be OK
'Cause we all go downtown sometimes
Somehow, baby, we'll beat this mess
It's the time, fuck the surface to meet the specialist

And time away from me will get you down
I love the way you put me in the big house
I love the way you put me in the big house

If I get there early, it will be the right time
Our heaven is just waiting, so put your hand into mine
If I get too surly, will you take that in stride?
Our boat is just there waiting, so put that little hand in mine

And speak when you're spoken of
Catch up on your sleep, girl, when you wear that body glove
You're acting on initiative, you're spelling out your love
You shouldn't be alone in there, you could be above ground

You should be through with this
Your packaged eyes, your vicious lips
You could be young, but you're out of touch
If this love's been done, then what's the rush?

I'm a specialist in hope, and I'm registered to vote
Why don't you come into my barrio, we'll see if we can float?
I'm a specialist in hope, and I'm registered to vote
Why don't you come into my barrio, we'll see if you can float?

That one's called "Specialist"
"Specialist" is the song, it's not on the record
