Live It Up Lyrics by Jermaine Jackson

Jermaine

1972

[Intro]
Ooh
[Verse 1]
Count your years, count your tears
I know you've lost a friend, yeah
March your fears, march your fears [?]
You'll never find a love again, no
He'll return, he'll return
You tell yourself each time, yeah yeah
'Til you learn, 'til you learn
He really didn't have that in mind
[Chorus]
But you stay in your lonely tower
Sittin' 'til nothing comes (Sittin' 'til nothing comes)
Passing by the hours
Turning them with your thumbs (Turning them with your thumbs)
Hey, that's no way to end a day, oh
[Verse 2]
Pity you, pity you
It's all you do each day, hey
Pretty you, pretty you
It doesn't have to be this way, no
Silly girl, silly girl
Treatin' yoursеlf like this, yeah
Really girl, rеally girl
It don't seem like you've been missed
[Chorus]
But you stay in your lonely tower
Sittin' 'til nothing comes (Sittin' 'til nothing comes)
Passing by the hours
Turning them with your thumbs (Turning them with your thumbs)
Now is the time to refill your cup
So get out your house, and live it up, live it up
Live it up, live it up, girl
Live it up, live it up, girl
Live it up, live it up, girl
[Bridge]
(You've gotta mend)
So you can love again
(You've gotta love)
Oh
[Verse 3]
I can show, I can show
You where to find a brand new thing, yeah
You should go, you should go
'Cause we'll give life a great big fling, yeah
Busy you, busy me
All wrapped in fun-filled times, yeah
Dizzy you, dizzy me
Just spinning in our prime
[Chorus]
And we'll just throw out all our worries
Empty nights and all (Empty nights and all)
Eat life's bowl of cherries
Havin' ourselves a ball (Havin' ourselves a ball)
Now is the time to refill your cup
So get out your house (Yeah, live it up, live it up with me)
[Outro]
(Get out your house, yeah, live it up, live it up with me)
(Get out your house, yeah)
Come on, baby
Don't sit at home alone waitin'
Forget him
Get out the house and enjoy yourself
(Get out your house, yeah)
Jump with me and we'll paint the town red
Come on, you pretty little thing, you
(Get out your house, yeah)
Let me show you what life's all about
Come on, baby
(Get out your house, yeah)
(Get out your house, yeah)
(Get out your house, yeah)~
