Lyrics
(Intro)
Yeah, this is a tale for all you funkateers,
A story about the loneliness that lurks when the mothership ain't near.
So listen up as we glide through this cosmic slop,
And if you're feeling the solitude, just let the funk drop.
(Verse 1)
Wait until tonight, girl, if you think you got it rough,
I'm the P-Funk pirate, and I'm sailing kinda tough.
When the bass drops out and the lights get low,
You'll be searching for the stars in my funkadelic show.
(Chorus)
If you think you're lonely now, (Oh, wait, wait until tonight, girl)
Wait until the groove hits you deep inside,
If you think you're lonely now, (Funk me, baby)
When the spaceship's gone and you're all alone,
Just let the P-Funk take you home.
(Verse 2)
I'll be out on the mothership, grooving with the clones,
You'll be here on Terra firma, feeling all alone.
But don't you fret now, baby, 'cause the funk don't stop,
Just put on your boogie shoes, and let your body rock.
(Bridge)
Remember the times we funk'd 'til dawn,
The bass so thick, the lead so warm.
Now the echo's in your mind like a lonely song,
But baby, baby, baby, the funk goes on.
Now the echo's in your mind like a lonely song,
But baby, baby, baby, the funk goes on.
(Chorus)
If you think you're lonely now, (I'll be funkin' without you, babe)
Wait until the rhythm's gone,
If you think you're lonely now, (I'll be getting down)
You'll be crying out for more of that P-Funk lore.
(Outro)
So if you're feeling the solitude, don't despair, don't frown,
The mothership connection, baby, it's always coming 'round.
'Cause if you're thinking that you're lonely now,
Just wait until the funk hits you, pow!
We'll funk away all the lonely,
We'll funk until you're not the only,
So hold tight, 'cause P-Funk's coming,
And soon you'll be humming,
With the cosmic love that's never, ever phony.
So hold tight, 'cause P-Funk's coming,
And soon you'll be humming,
With the cosmic love that's never, ever phony.
