lyrics

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!
This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

Days like this I want to drive away
Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade
You chewed me up, you spit me out like I was poison in your mouth
You took my light, you drained me down
But that was then and this is now, hey look at me!

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

I just want to throw my phone away
Find out who is really there for me
You ripped me off, your love was cheap
Was always tearing at the seams
I fell deep, you let me down
But that was then and this is now, now look at me!

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!
This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!

Now look at me I’m sparkling
A firework, a dancing flame
You won't ever put me out again I’m glowin’, whooa whooa

So you can keep the diamond ring
It don't mean nothing anyway
In fact you can keep everything
Yeah, yeah except for me

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no!
This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me
This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever take away from me
This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever…take away from me!

This is, this is, this is the part of me
This is, this is, this is the part of me

This is the part of me, that you’re never gonna ever!

The Time Thief

There is just so much to love on this album, too much to mention every track. So... Funkie Moon has those drops that just ... hang... It sounds likely to be great live jam opportunity. Universality: this is the funkiness you are looking for -- you can't get away with just tapping a foot to this! The trio of Mr Goyle, Walkin' Struttin' Strollin' and The Time Thief are also stand out funk, the middle my second favourite on the album. Give us more, soon! :) Peter Jones
