Lyrics

Ah, ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if you realize it, but tonight youre in for a special treat. no, no, no, not that, not that! you only get that treat on full moons. besides, I know there's a lot of young people here, and I wouldn't want anybody to think thatt I want to screw them tonight
The last time it happened grown men where weeping. policemen were turning in their badges. oh, I get, I get it. everyone was intimidated tonight by all the security precautions an everything. ah… well, just remember their motto is "protect and serve"

I wanna get
Close to you, baby, like black on white
Close to you, baby, like the coldest of ice
Close to you, baby, like a siamese twin
Close to you, baby, like I'm feeling alright

I wanna get close to you, baby
Well, close to you, baby
Close to you, baby
Till I don't know what to say or do

I wanna get
Close to you, baby, like the sight of your eye
Close to you, baby, like the heat is to fire
Close to you, baby, close as I can get
Close to you, baby, like water's wet

I wanna get close to you, baby
I said close to you, baby
Close to you, baby
Till I don't know what to say or do

I wanna get
Close to you, baby, till I'm feeling alright
Close to you, baby, gonna love you all night
Close to you, baby, and to new york city
I love you so much, woman, you know it's a pity

I wanna get close to you, baby
I said, close to you, baby
I wanna get close to you, baby
Don't know what to say or do. well

I gotta get closer and closer, baby
Closer and closer, babe
Closer and closer, baby
Closer and closer, baby
I gotta get close to you, baby
Till I don't know what to say or do

Well, closer and closer, baby
Closer and closer, baby
Closer and closer, baby
Closer and closer, baby
I wanna get close to you, baby
You know, baby, we love you
And I'll make him feel alright
Make me feel alright
Make robbie feel alright
And you make john feel alright
And make jim feel alright
And we wanna love you so much too
I don't know what to say or do

Alright!
