Текст песни Love Potion #9 Medley

[Love Potion #9 by Tygers Of Pan Tang]

(Mike on lead)
I took my troubles down to Madame Rouge
you know that gypsy with the gold cap tooth
she's got a store front on 34th and Vine
sellin' little bottles of

(rest)
What?

(Mike)
love potion number nine

I told her that I was a flop with chicks

[Jian often yells out the name of the town
they're in after the previous line]

It been that way til 1996
she looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
said you need a bottle of

(rest)
What?

(Mike)
love potion number nine

(Mike, with the rest doing "Ooos")
she turned down, turned around, gave me a wink
said I'm gonna' mix it up right here in the sink
Looked like turpentine smelled like India ink

(All)
I held my breath, closed my eyes
I took a drink

(Mike)
But, I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissing everything in sight
but when I kissed a cop down on 34th and Vine
he broke my little bottle of

(rest)
What?

(Mike)
love potion number nine

(guitar solo by Dave)

[Ohio]
(Jian)
Ten soldiers, and Nixon's comin'
(All)
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drummin'
four dead in Ohio

[Stayin' Alive]
(Dave)
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk

Music loud and women warm,
I've been kicked around since I was born.

But, that's alright, it's OK,
you can look the other way.
We can try to understand, the New York Times
effect on man.

Whether you're a brother, or whether you're a mother,
you're Stayin' Alive, Stayin' Alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin' it
Stayin' Alive, Stayin' Alive

Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Stayin' Alive, Stayin' Alive
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Stayin' Alive.......

[Dave and Murray do the riff from "Jungle Boogie", near the
end of which, Jian says (in rhythm) "Here we go, Here we go..."]

[Who Will Save Your Soul?]
(Mike in a cracking voice)
Who will save your soul?
(Mike yodels)

[Chumbawumba]
(All)
I get knocked down, but I get up again,
ain't nothin' gonna keep me down.
I get knocked down, but I get up again,
ain't nothin' gonna keep me down.

[Mike's songs here vary from Barbie Girl,
to You Oughtta Know by Alanis, to That Girl
by Maxi Priest ("I'm heartbroken, she's
outspoken, ..."), to almost anything]

[Love Shack]
(Mike w/ the others joining in near the end of the line)
I got me a car, and it's as big as a whale, and
I'm about to set sail!

(Mike, with the rest doing "Ooos")
she turned down, turned around, gave him a wink
said I'm gonna' mix it up right here in the sink
Looked like turpentine smelled like India ink

(All)
I held my breath, closed my eyes
I took a drink

[Mike's line here follows the melody, but is always
different from show to show. Quite often, he makes
a reference to something that happened in the show,
or a local reference, or a reference to Marcus]

(Mike)
but when I kissed a cop down on 34th and Vine
she broke my little bottle of

(rest)
What?

(Mike)
