LYRICS
African queen
Yeah, yeah, you are my african queen, oooh lord, oooh lord
Just like the sun, lights up the earth, you light up my life
The only one, I've ever seen with a smile so bright
And just yesterday, you came around my way
And changed my whole scenery with your astonishing beauty
Ah, you coulda make a brother sing,
You ordinary thing, a supernatural being
I know you are just brighter than the moon
Brighter than the star, I love you just the way you are
And you are my African Queen, the girl of my dreams.
You take me where I've never been
You make my heart go ting-a-ling-a-ling, oh ahh
You are my African Queen, the girl of my dreams
And you remind me of a thing
And that is the African beauty yahhh
Yahh oooo you are my african queen, oh lord, oo lord hmm
Out of a million you stand as one
The outstanding one
I look into your eyes, girl what I see is paradise
Yeah you captivated my soul, now everyday I want you more o o oo
How can I deny this feeling I'm feeling inside
Ey oh no one can never take your place
Can never take your space,
Thats a fact I cannot erase
And you, you are the one that makes me smile
Make me float like a boat upon the nile.
Oooo ooooo yaahhh yahhh oooo
You are my african queen and I know, oh yes I know hhn
You are my african queen and I know, see I know
See I know what I am feeling in my heart and in my soul
Oh I know that it is love
And I know that this love was surely sent from up above
Cause you're the only one I think of
You are my african queen
And I know that this means that you're the only one that I will serve
I'll give you my heart, my love, my body and my money
Every other thing you think of
Who could think of anything better than you
Who could think of ever hurting you
Sacrifice my all, I'll give it all to you
Cause you are my african queen
For real
And you are my African Queen, the girl of my dreams.
You take me where I've never been
You make my heart go ting-a-ling-a-ling, oh ahh
You are my African Queen, the girl of my dreams
And you remind me of a thing
And that is the African beauty yahhh
So black, so beautiful
I love you, I love you, I love you,
Munyemo, I love you, I love you, I love you,
Munyemo, I love you, I love you,
Ooohhh yeah, my African Queen,
I love you, I love you

back to beautiful
They say
You're not good enough, you're not brave enough
You should cover up your body
Tell me, watch my weight
Gotta paint my face
Or else no one's gonna want me
Why do we say this to ourselves?
And even worse to each other?
Why do we say this to ourselves? Ooh
We gotta, get back to beautiful
Gotta, get back to beautiful
All these words, starting wars
Over who can hurt who more
Gotta, get back to beautiful
Judging who we love, judging where we're from
(Where we're from)
When did this become so normal?
Celebrating hate is now a commonplace
(Commonplace)
When did this become so normal?
Why do we say this to ourselves?
And even worse to each other?
Why do we say this to ourselves? Ooh
Why do we say this to ourselves? (Why)
And even worse to each other? (Ooh)
Why do we say this to ourselves? Ooh
We gotta, get back to beautiful
Gotta, get back to beautiful
All these words, starting wars
Over who can hurt who more
Gotta, get back to beautiful
We gotta, get back to beautiful
Gotta, get back to beautiful
All these words, starting wars
Over who can hurt who more
Gotta, get back to beautiful

Heart skips a beat
My heart skips, skips, skips, skips, skips, skips a beat
I can see you're not yourself
Even when you're here with me
I know that you're somewhere else
So put another record on
Kiss and lead me on
Nothing really matters when we're dancing
Listen to the same sad song playing on repeat
'Cause every time we come this close
My heart skips, skips a beat
So come on, spin me around
Now, I don't wanna go home
'Cause when you hold me like this
You know my heart skips, skips a beat
I know I should, but I can't leave it alone
And when you hold me like this
That's when my heart skips, skips a beat
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
So hung up, we can't let go
If you really have to leave
One more time just move me slow
So, put another record on
Play it on repeat
Nothing really matters when we're dancing
'Cause all you ever need to know
Is what you do to me
That every time you hold me close
My heart skips, skips a beat
So come on, spin me around
Now, I don't wanna go home
'Cause when you hold me like this
You know my heart skips, skips a beat
I know I should, but I can't leave it alone
And when you hold me like this
That's when my heart skips, skips a beat
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Hold up, caught up, what you doing to me
So hold up, hold up, you make it hard to resist
We caught up, caught up, now it's already too late
So hold up, hold up
You make my heart skip skip skip, skip skip skip a beat
So come on, spin me around and I don't wanna go home
'Cause when you hold me like this
You know my heart skips, skips a beat
I know I should, but I can't leave it alone
And when you hold me like this
That's when my heart skips, skips a beat
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Heart skips, skips a beat
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
My heart skips, skips a beat
