Michael / The Jacksons Lyrics / Destiny
Blame It O The Boogie(3:34)
by The Jacksons (1978)
My baby’s always dancin’
And it wouldn’t be a bad thing
But I don’t get no lovin’
And that’s no lie
We spent the night in Frisco
At every kind of disco
From that night I kissed our love goodbye
Don’t blame it on the sunshine
Don’t blame it on the moonlight
Don’t blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
Don’t blame it on the sunshine
Don’t blame it on the moonlight
Don’t blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
That nasty boogie bugs me
But somehow it has drugged me
Spellbound rhythm gets me on my feet
I’ve changed my life completely
I’ve seen the lightning leave me
And my baby just can’t take her eyes off me
I just can’t
I just can’t
I just can’t control my feet
This magic music grooves me
That dirty rhythm fools me
The devil’s gotten me
Through this dance
I’m full of funky fever
A fire burns inside me
Boogie’s got me in a super trance
Sunshine
Moonlight
Good times
Boogie
Don’t you blame it
You just got to
You just want to
Yeah, oh
Blame it on yourself
Ain’t nobody’s fault
But yours and that boogie
Dancing all night long
Push Me Away (4:16)
by The Jacksons (1978)
Live and sigh
Crying eyes
Your touch, your heart, your warmth
Lullaby
Live to dream
Don’t it seem
The tears, the pain
Reality
Don’t you know
These dreams I wish could be
The real you and me
I come running back to you
You push me away
You push, you push me away
Darken days
Go away
The nights are bright
Dream and stay
As I dream loving you
Your touch, your heart, your warmth
Please come true
Don’t you know
These dreams I wish could be
The real you and me
I come running back to you
You push me away
You push, you push me away
Don’t you know
These dreams I wish could be
The real you and me
I come running back to you
You push me away
You push, you push me away
I come running back to you
You push me away
You push, you push me away
I come running back to you
You push me away
Push me away
Don’t you know
You push me away
Running back to you
Things I Do For You (4:05)
by The Jacksons (1978)
People all over the world
Are the same everywhere I go
I give into this
I give into that
Everyday it bothers me so
Am I in a bad situation
People take me to the extreme
Am I being used
I just need a clue
I don't know which way to go
So I take my problems to a doctor
So he can check it out
(He don't know)
I take it to a palm reader
But she can’t read my hand
(She don't know)
(Five minutes later)
I start to understand
And I start screaming
And shouting and acting mad
No one can help me but myself
But I gave everything
It's the things I do for you
In return do the same for me
It's the things I do for you
In return do the same for me
Always wanting something for nothing
Especially what they don't deserve
Reaching in my pocket
I just gotta stop it
Though they got a lot of nerve
Am I in a bad situation
People take me to the extreme
They don't use rejection
So I need protection
To keep my equity
So I take my problems to a doctor
So he can check it out
(He don't know)
I take it to a palm reader
But she can’t read my hand
(She don't know)
(Five minutes later)
I start to understand
And I start screaming
And shouting and acting mad
No one could help me but myself
And I gave everything I had
It's the things I do for you
In return do the same for me
It's the things I do for you
In return do the same for me
Check it over
(It's the things I do for you)
(In return do the same for me)
(It's the things I do for you)
(In return do the same for me)
Don’t you hear the sound
People going round
This music going down
All around the line
(It's the things I do for you)
(In return do the same for me)
(It's the things I do for you)
(In return do the same for me)
Can’t you see, can’t you see
This thing is going down
Can’t you just
People going wild
All around, yeah, yeah
Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground) (7:59)
by The Jacksons (1978)
I don't know what's going happen to you, baby
But I do know that I love you
You walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And I do know that I want you
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
You tease me with your loving to play hard to get
Cause you do know that I want you
You walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And you do know that I want you
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
You are the spark that lit the fire inside of me
And you know that I love it
I need to do just something to get closer to your soul
And you do know that I want you
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Let's dance, let's shout (shout)
Shake you body down to the ground
Destiny (4:50)
by The Jacksons (1978)
In this world there's so much confusion
And I've tasted the city life and it's not for me
Now I do dream of distant places
Where I don't know now, but it's Destiny
If it's the rich life, I don't want it
Happiness ain't always material things
I want Destiny
It's the place for me
Give me the simple life
I'm getting away from here
Let me be me, let me feel free, let me be me
I'm a man that's for all seasons
What the city offers me ain't naturally
I look to greet the stars
But there's no stars to see
Gonna search this world until I find my Destiny
If it's the rich life, I don't want it
Happiness ain't always material things
I want Destiny
It's the place for me
Give me the simple life
I'm getting away from here
Let me be me, let me feel free, let me be me
I'm a man that's for all seasons
What the city offers me ain't naturally
I look to greet the stars
But there's no stars to see
Gonna search this world until I find my Destiny
I wanna be far from here
Should I up and fly away so fancy free
Nobody can change my mind
I'm screamming out these words for me
While time
Destiny, ah destiny, it's calling me
Destiny, a place for me
Ah, destiny
I want destiny
It's the place for me.......
Bless His Soul (4:55)
by The Jacksons (1978)
I try to do what's right for me
But no one sees the way I see
And then I try to please them so
But how far can this pleasing go
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
Gotta start doing what's right for you
’Cause life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
If I were you
I'd change my mind
Start living for me
In these changing times
Sometimes I cry ’cause I'm confused
Is this a fact of being used
There is no life for me at all
’Cause I give myself at beck and call
Something's soon to come over you
Just can't please the world and yourself
Gotta start doing what's right for you
Life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
If I were you
I'd change my mind
Start living for me
In these changing times
The life you're leading is dangerous
It's so dangerous, dangerous all
You're leading is dangerous
Doggone dange, da-dange, dangerous
Something's soon to come over you
Just can't please the world and yourself
Gotta start doing what's right for you
Life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
People will cry
If rain or sun
Try to please all
And you've pleased none
All Night Dancin' (6:09)
by The Jacksons (1978)
I don't like it, baby
When you're stopping me on the floor
’Cause the more I keep on dancing
The more I keep wanting some more
I don't care what you're saying
You're talking in my ear much to loud
And the music's taking my body
On a trip from nine to five
Keep me dancing
(All night)
Wanna keep me groovin’
(All night)
Rockin’ and rollin’
(All night)
Ain’t nobody’s business
(All night)
I’m gonna dance up fire
I’m calling engine number 109
There ain’t no chains to hold me
Gonna burn this place down till five
And you can't stop this fever
'Cause my temperature’s burning hot, hot
All I wanna do is dance, dance
Sweating from my face to my feet
Keep me dancing
(All night)
Gotta keep me movin’
(All night)
Ain’t nobody’s business but mine

That's What You Get (For Being Polite) (4:56)
by The Jacksons (1978)
Jack still cries day and night
Jack's not happy with his life
He wanna do this
He wanna do that
He wanna be kind
But ends up flat
For love, for love
He tries so hard to give a lot
He wants to be what he is not
Love's not harsh
Love's not bad
And what he's doing
For love is so sad
(He wants to be so bad)
(He wants to be so bad)
All the time getting in
Things he can't get out
Something’s deep inside of him
Eating up the pride of him
That makes him buy
Things for the girls
(That's what you get)
(For being polite)
(For being polite)
Jack still sits all alone
He lives the world that is his own
He's lost in thoughts of who to be
I wish to God that he would see
Just love
Give him love
He tries so hard to give a lot
He wants to be what he is not
Love's not harsh
Love's not bad
And what he's doing
For love is so sad
(He wants to be so bad)
(He wants to be so bad)
All the time getting in
Things he can't get out
Something’s deep inside of him
Eating up the pride of him
That makes him buy
Things for the girls
(That's what you get)
(For being polite)
(For being polite)
Jack’s still trying to make you happy
But
Jack’s still trying to make you happy
But
Jack’s sill trying to make you happy
But it's love
But it’s love
Jack’s still trying to make
Don’t you know he cries
(Jack’s still)
Don’t you know he’s, yeah
(Jack’s still)
His often though was for love
His funk is love
Don’t you know he often cries about you
He cries about me
He cries about you
(You)
And me
(Me)
And every little thing that’s in his way
He cries about me
He cries about you
(You)
And me
(Me)
Know that he just had to cry
(Jack’s still)
Don’t you know he cries
(Jack’s still)
Don’t you know he’s, yeah
(Jack’s still)
His often thought was for love
Yeah, yeah
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Don’t you know, don’t you know he cries
He cries because there is a lack of love
Don’t you know he often
Don’t you know
Don’t you know, yeah
Don’t you know, yeah
He often cries because there is no love
