Turn the music up
Turn the music up

Move it move it, baby
Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
And I can't stop this rhythm in my heart
Move it move it baby
Can't you see I'm ready to dance?
Without this beat my life would fall apart

Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot
Gonna make a lot of money
Gonna break your heart
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Watch out boy, (watch out boy)
Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot
Gonna make a lot of money
Gonna break your heart

But I'm the only one with a key
And that's me

*CHORUS:
Sometimes, (Sometimes)
You wake up in the morning with the bass line
(You wake up in the morning with the bass line,)
A Ray of Sunshine
(A Ray of Sunshine,)
Sometimes, (Sometimes,)
You know today you're gonna have a good time
(You know today you're gonna have a good time,)
And you're ready to go
(And you're ready to go.)

*Repeat Chorus

Turn the music up
Turn the music up, turn it up
Because it's all I've-
All that I've got

Come On

Greedy men, in far off places
Don't be afraid to show your faces
We know what you've done is wrong
But clap your hands, and sing along now!
Don't even bother, to let us know
When you flick the switch and stop the show
Because the party has begun
And we'll still be dancing, as-you-run-now!

Come On, Everybody!
Get on, with your party!
And don't let nobody say you're wrong
O.K
So you've lost control
But they'll never steal your soul
No way!
That they're gonna spoil your fun

Love Machine

**CHORUS:
I'm just a love machine
And I won't work for nobody but you, ooh-ooh-ooh yeah
I'm just a love machine, hey baby
A huggin', kissin' fiend

I think it's high time you knew
Whenever I think of you
My mind blows a fuse. (baby)
When I look in you eyes
My meter starts to rise, and I become confused
My voltage regulator cools
When I'm sitting next to you
Electricity starts to flow
And my indicator starts to glow - wooo

**Repeat Chorus
Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-woo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah
(Repeat chorus)

Come On…
And don't …
O.K
So you've lost control
No way!
That they're gonna spoil your fun

Oh no, don't think that I'm not scared
Oh no, don't think that I'm prepared
I just take each day as it comes
Because it may - it may -
It may be the last one!
I know they don't care about me
I ain't got no money, ain't a V.I.P
And I know they don't care about you
You may - as well - enjoy your life like I do!

Come On, Everybody!
Get on, with your party!
And don't let nobody say you're wrong
O.K
So you've lost control
But they'll never steal your soul
No way!
That they're gonna spoil your fun

Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot
Gonna make a lot of money
Gonna break your heart
Shuffle on your feet till the floor is hot
Gonna make a lot of money
Give me what you got
…get the best of me
You see…

But I'm the only one with a key
And that's me

*CHORUS:
Sometimes
You wake up in the morning with the bass line
A Ray of Sunshine
Sometimes
You know today you're gonna have a good time
And you're ready to go. x4

Oh oh oh oh oh

Wham! were an English pop group, formed in 1981 by George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley. Despite how brief their career was, the duo had a lot of impact and George Michael went on to become a successful solo artist.

Their first moment in the limelight came in 1982 when they were picked to go on Top of the Pops, and performed the single “Young Guns (Go for It!)”. It was an overnight sensation and peaked at #3 in the UK charts, paving the way for further singles “Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do)”, “Bad Boys” and “Club Tropicana”. By the time they released their debut album Fantastic in 1983, Wham! had become one of Britain’s biggest pop acts. International recognition came with Make It Big in 1984, along with a string of hit singles — “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” entered the charts around the world at #1, as well as “Careless Whisper” (issued as George Michael solo piece), “Freedom” and “Last Christmas”, which made it to #2 after “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”, where George Michael also participated.

By 1986, George Michael wanted to distance himself from Wham! and launch a solo career, so a final greatest hits album The Final (marketed as Music from the Edge of Heaven in the US and Japan) was released. Farewell single “The Edge of Heaven” went to #1 in the UK and made it to the top 10 in America.
