I've Been Working
I don't know why the world loves a forever love affair
(I'm just a freak) who loves a one night thing, oh yeah
(A one night all night)
And after a long day of work, all I wanna do is play around
So I'm going out for a little bit of love
And a whole lotta getting down
Do you believe me, you gotta believe me
I've been working
I've been all day working
And I need somebody
Said I need some...
I need some love tonight, oh yeah
I need some love
I need some love tonight
People talk about my life and here's what they say
("It's incomplete") it's too bad that they feel that way
(He sure is crazy)
But I don't listen to any of them after five o'clock
Because the night is mine
And I don't wanna change anything 'cause I like what I got, oh
I've been working (I've been work, work)
I've been all day working (I kind of work, work)
And I need somebody (kind of work, work)
Said I need some
I need some love tonight, oh yeah
I need some love
I need some love tonight
So don't give me a forever love affair, no don't you dare
(I like to freak) to the one night beat, oh yeah
(Again and again, yeah, yeah)
I work hard every day, so I do what I wanna do
That's why I'm steppin' out (stepping out)
To find me somebody to do what I wanna do, ooh-ooh
I've been working
I've been all day working
And I need somebody
Said I need some
I need some love tonight
I've been working
I've been all day working
And I need somebody
Said I need some
I need some love tonight, oh yeah
You know what I wanna do, come on, let's do it (I've been working)
(I've been all day working) you know what I wanna do, come on let's do it
(And I need somebody) girl, and I need somebody
Said I need some
I need some love tonight, oh yeah
(I've been working) work
(I've been all day working) work
(And I need somebody) work
(Said I need some) that's why I need some love
I need some love tonight, oh yeah
I've been working (I've been working), work
I've been at work (I've been all day working), work
And I need somebody
Said I need some
