[Verse 1]
Stone shaker, your here tonight
You've got to, you love maker
Girl it's alright
You can't remember when you smiled
You know it's going to take some time

Heart-walker, I'm here to touch
You've got to, Night-stalker
Love you so much
You feel you need a hand to hold
Then maybe you and I
Can make it on our own

[Chorus]
Bring out some Slapstick (turning me on)
Bring out some magic (your number one)
Bring out some Slapstick (making me high)
Because the Slapstick love, will make you smile
(Darling, yeah)

[Verse 2]
That heart-breaker, has gone away
So baby, you don't fake it
Let your heart play
There's more than love, that we can make
Your holding it behind your eye, (yeah, yeah)
Some feeling, you can't explain
It's such a, a hard feeling
Lying in bed's flame
It's spinning round and round again
And baby you and I
Can make it on our own

[Chorus]
Give me some Slapstick (turning me on)
Bring out the magic (your number one)
I want some Slapstick (making me high)
Because the Slapstick love, will make you smile
(Every time, He He, He He)

Oh

[Verse 3]
(No more crying)
Reach out and bring a little love
In your life, girl
(Keep on trying)
You got to keep on trying baby
Holding on to love, tonight

[Guitar Solo]

(Oh no)
Stone-shaker, your far to much
You've got to, you love maker
Girl it's alright
Your spinning' round and round again
So baby let it shine
And everything's alright

[Chorus][x2]
Because of Slapstick (turning me on)
I want some magic (your number one)
I want some Slapstick, girl (making me high)
Because the Slapstick love, will make you smile

[Chorus]
Bring out the Slapstick, (turning me on)
I want some magic, girl (your number one)
I want some Slapstick, girl (making me high)
Because the Slapstick love, will make you smile
(Oh)

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
