JAM
Written by Michael Jackson
Composed by Rene Moore, Bruce Sweden, Michael Jackson and Teddy Riley

(1, 2, 3, jam)
Nation to nation... All the world must come together
Face the problems that we see then maybe somehow we can work it out!
I asked my neighbor for a favor, She said later
What has come of all the people... Have we lost love of what it's about
I have to find my peace cuz no one seems to let me be
False prophets cry of doom... What are the possibilities?
I told my brother there'll be problems time and tears for fears
We must live each day like it's the last!

[Chorus]
Go with it... Go with it... Jam
It ain't too much stuff (Jam)
It ain't too much... It ain't too much for me to Jam
It ain't... It ain't too much stuff (jam) It ain't... Told U
It ain't too much for me to...

The world keeps changin’, Rearrangin’ minds and thoughts predictions
Fly of doom... The baby boom has come of age we'll work it out
I told my brothers, “Don't U ask me for no favors
I'm conditioned by the system, Don't U talk to me, Don't scream and shout!”
She pray to God... To Buddha then she sings a talmud song
Confusions contradict thyself... Do we know right from wrong
I just want U to recognize me in the temple
U can't hurt me, I've found peace within myself!

Go with it... Go with it... Jam! It ain't... It ain't... Too much stuff (Jam)
It ain't too much... It ain't too much for me to Jam!
 It ain't...  It ain't...  Too much stuff!  It ain't! Told U!
It ain't too much for me to Jam
Uh-huh! It ain't too much stuff (Jam)
It ain't too much... It ain't too much for me to jam
It ain't... It ain't too much stuff, It ain't! Told U!
It ain't too much for me to Whoo!

(Rap)
Jam, Jam, Here comes the man!
Hot damn! The big boy stands, Movin up a hand
Makin funny tracks with my man, Michael Jackson
Smooth criminal... That's the man... Mike's so relaxed
Mingle mingle jingle In the jungle, Bum rushed the door, 3 and 4's in a bundle
Execute the plan, First I cooled like a fan
Got with Janet then with guy, Now with Michael
'Cause it ain't too hard to...

Jam! It ain't... It ain't too much stuff (Jam), It ain't too much!
It ain't too much for me to Jam!
Dogonnet! It ain't too much stuff (Jam), It ain't! Don't stop!
It ain't too much for me to jam!
It ain't... It ain't too much stuff (Jam)! It ain't! Don't U!
It ain't too much for me to Jam!
(whoo whoo!) It ain't... It ain't too much stuff!
It ain't! Told U! It ain't too much for me to Whoo!
It ain't too hard for me to jam [Repeat 9 times]
Whoo! Dogonnet!
JAM! It ain't... It ain't too much stuff (jam)! It ain't! Told U!
It ain't too much for me to Jam! Uh-huh!
It ain't too much stuff (Jam)! It ain't too much
It ain't too much for me to Jam! Uh-huh
It ain't too much stuff (Jam)! It ain't too much
It ain't too much for me to Jam!
Too much
It ain't too much stuff (Jam)! It ain't! Told U!
It ain't too much for me to

WHY U WANNA TRIP ON ME
Written and composed by Teddy Riley and Bernard Belle

They say I'm different, They don't understand
But there's a bigger problem that's much more in demand
U got world hunger... Not enough to eat
So there's really no time to be trippin' on me!
U got school teachers... Who don't wanna teach
U got grown people... Who can't write or read
U got strange diseases... Ah but there's no cure
U got many doctors that aren't so sure
So tell me...
Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin'

We've got more problems than we'll ever need
U got gang violence and bloodshed on the street
U got homeless people with no food to eat
With no clothes on their back and no shoes for their feet
We've got drug addiction... In the minds of the weak
We've got so much corruption... Police brutality
We've got streetwalkers... Walkin' into darkness
Tell me what are U doing to try to stop this?

Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
U stop trippin'! They stop trippin’! Everybody just stop trippin'!

Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin'!

Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Why U wanna trip on me? Why U wanna trip on me?
Ooh stop trippin
Yeah stop trippin'
Everybody just stop trippin'

Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'!
Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'!
Why U wanna trip on me? Stop trippin'! [Repeat 4 Times]
Stop trippin'! Stop trippin'!

She's got the look! She so fine and U know damn well the girl will be mine!
She got the breaks... She the scene and U know damn well she gives it to me!
Uh-huh! Black jeans and a turtleneck sweater
I know the girl is fakin’, Cuz I've seen her look better

Got it ready for the willing... Got it kickin in the back

She drives me wild!

Do U remember? Those special times that just go on and on...
In the back of my mind

CAN'T LET HER GET AWAY
Written and composed by Michael Jackson and Teddy Riley

I thought she had to have it since the first time she came
Who knows the situation? Mysteries do remain
And now I wonder why I breakdown when I cry
Is it something I said or is it just a lie? (Is it just a lie)

I try so hard to love U, Some things take time and shame
I think the whole world of U, Your thoughts of me remain
I'll play the fool for U... I’ll change the rules for U
Just say it and I'll do... Just make this thing come true
(Make this dream come true)

If I let her get away... Though I'm begging on my knees
I'll be crying everyday... Knowing the girl that got away!

[Chorus:]
I can't let... I can't let her get away!
I can't let... I can't let her get away!
I can't let... I can't let her get away!
I can't let... I can't let her get away!

I tried to mastermind it, By saying let it be
But every time I did it... The hurt came back at me
I told U that I need U... A thousand times and why
I played the fool for U and still U said goodbye... Still U said goodbye!

If I let her get away then the world will have to see
A fool who lives alone, The fool who set U free

[Repeat Chorus]

No! Can't let go! No! Can't let go!

[Repeat Chorus]
Can't let go! Can't let go!

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let her get away!
I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let her get away!
I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let... I can't let her get away!

Can't let go! Can't let go!

[Repeat Chorus Thrice]

HEAL THE WORLD
Written and composed by Michael Jackson

(Think about, um, The generations and that we want to make it a better
place for our children and our children's children... So that they know it's a
better world for them. I think they can make it a better place.)

There's a place in your heart and I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if U really try, You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place, You'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there... If U care enough for the living
Make a little space! Make a better place!

[Chorus:]
Heal the world! Make it a better place!
For U and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying... If U care enough for the living
Make a better place for U and for me!

If U want to know why... There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong... It only cares for joyful giving
If we try... We shall see... In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread, We stop existing and start living!
Then it feels that always love's enough for us growing
Make a better world! Make a better world...

[Repeat Chorus]

And the dream we were conceived in will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in... Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life... Would this earth crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see... This world is heavenly be God's glow!
We could fly so high... Let our spirits never die
In my heart... I feel U are all my brothers
Create a world... With no fear... Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares

We could... Really get there... If U cared enough for the living
Make a little space! To make a better place!

[Repeat Chorus Thrice]

There are people dying... If U care enough for the living
Make a better place for U and for me
There are people dying... If U care enough for the living
Make a better place for U and for me

(U and for me) Make a better place! (U and for me) Make a better place!
(U and for me) Make a better place! (U and for me) Heal the world we live in!
(U and for me) Save it for our children! (U and for me) Heal the world we live in!
(U and for me) Save it for our children! (U and for me) Heal the world we live in!
(U and for me) Save it for our children! (U and for me) Heal the world we live in!
(U and for me) Save it for our children!

BLACK OR WHITE
Written and composed by Michael Jackson
Rap lyrics by Bill Bottrell

(loud guitar riff... Banging on door)
"HEY!" "What?" "TURN IT OFF."
"Dad, this is the best part!" "TURN IT OFF." "No!"
"IT'S TOO LATE FOR THIS. TURN IT OFF!"
"Dad, this is the best part! Come on!"
"NO. TURN IT OFF NOW!"
"No, This is the... I wanna listen to it, Okay?"
(father screaming over the music as the kid turns it up... Banging on
door... U hear a tape being put in)
"Yeah, Right! Too late? Sure. Eat this." (music changes and song starts)

Ow! Ow!
I took my baby on a Saturday bang
Boy is that girl with U? Yes we're one and the same!
Now I believe in miracles and a miracle has happened tonight!
Hee! But if you're thinkin’ about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white!
Ooh!

They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell them I ain't second to none and I told about equality
And it's true either you're wrong or you're right
Hee!
But if you're thinkin about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white!
Hee! Hee-hee!

I am tired of this devil! I am tired of this stuff!
I am tired of this business! Girl when the going gets rough!
I ain't scared of your brother! I ain't scared of no sheets!
I ain't scared of nobody! Girl when the going gets mean!

(Rap)
Protection... For gangs clubs and nations... Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war... On a global scale... I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See it's not about races... Just places... Faces
Where your blood comes from... It's where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not gonna spend my life being a color!

Don't tell me U agree with me when I saw U kicking dirt in my eye
Hee-hee!
But if you're thinkin about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said “If you're thinkin of being my baby, It don't matter if you're black or white”
I said “If you're thinkin of being my brother, It don't matter if you're black or white”

Ooh ooh! Yeah yeah yeah now
Ooh ooh! Yeah yeah yeah now
All right
It's black... It's white... It's tough for U to get by
Yeah yeah yeah now
It's black... It's white! Whoo!
It's black... It's white... It's tough for U to get by
Yeah yeah yeah now
It's black... It's white! Whoo!

WHO IS IT?
Written and composed by Michael Jackson

I gave her money, I gave her time
I gave her everything inside one heart could find
I gave her passion... My very soul
I gave her promises and secrets so untold

And she promised me forever and a day we'd live as one
We made our vows... We'd live a life anew

And she promised me in secret that she'd love me for all time
It's a promise so untrue... Tell me what will I do?

And it doesn't seem to matter and it doesn't seem right
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night
Don't U judge of my composure... Cuz I'm lyin to myself
And the reason why she left me... Did she find in someone else?

(Who is it?) It is a friend of mine
(Who is it?) Is it my brother?
(Who is it?) Somebody hurt my soul now
(Who is it?) I can't take this stuff no more

I am the damned... I am the dead
I am the agony inside the dying head
This is injustice... Woe unto thee
I pray this punishment would have mercy on me

And she promised me forever that we'd live our life as one
We made our vows... We'd live a love so true
It seems that she has left me for such reasons unexplained
I need to find the truth... Let's see what will I do?

And it doesn't seem to matter and it doesn't seem right
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night
Don't U judge of my composure, Cuz I'm bothered everyday
And she didn't leave a letter... She just up and ran away

(Who is it?) It is a friend of mine
(Who is it?) Is it my brother?
(Who is it?) Somebody hurt my soul now
(Who is it) I can't take it cuz I'm lonely
Hee-hee! Hee-hee!
(muttering under the music and crying...can't really make out)

(Who is it?) It is a friend of mine
(Who is it?) To me I'm bothered
(Who is it?) Somebody hurt my soul now
(Who is it?) I can't take it cuz I'm lonely

And it doesn't seem to matter (Hee-hee)
And it doesn't seem right (Hee-hee)
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night
Don't U judge of my composure... Cuz I'm lyin to myself
And the reason why she left me... Did she find in someone else?

And it doesn't seem to matter (Don't bother me)
And it doesn't seem right (Dada dada dada)
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night
Don't U judge of my composure... Cuz I'm bothered everday
And she didn't leave a letter (Can't U really see I'm lonely?)
She just up and ran away

And it doesn't seem to matter and it doesn't seem right (Hee-hee)
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night (Da da da da)
Don't U judge of my composure (Don't be don't be)
Cuz I'm lyin to myself (Don't be judgin)
And the reason why she left me
(Don't be don't be...I can't take it cuz I'm lonely)
Did she find in someone else?

And it doesn't seem to matter (Don't bother me)
And it doesn't seem right (...dada dada...)
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night
Don't U judge of my composure (Don't be judgin)
Cuz I'm bothered everday (Don't be don't be)
And she didn't leave a letter (Can't U really feel I'm lonely?)
She just up and ran away!

And it doesn't seem to matter (Hee-hee)
And it doesn't seem right  (Hee-hee)
Cuz the will has brought no fortune... Still I cry alone at night

(She don't she don't) Don't U judge of my composure

GIVE IN TO ME

Hold me... Like the River Jordan
And I will then say to thee, “U are my friend!”
Carry me... Like U are my brother
Love me like a mother... Will U be there?
Hey... Oh... Hey... Oh brother! Oh... Hey!

When weary... Tell me will U hold me?
When wrong will U scold me, When lost would U find me?
But they told me “A man should be faithful
And walk when not able and fight till the end”
But I'm only human
Hey... Oh... Oh brother... Hey... Oh... Hey

Everyone's taking control of me... Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will U show to me, You'll be there for me
And care enough to bear me?

(Hold me) Show me
(Lay your head lowly) Lowly
(Softly then boldly) Yeah
(Carry me there) I'm only human
(Need me) Hold me

(Love me and feed me) Fill me up hold me up fill me up sometimes
(Kiss me and free me) Up sometimes
(I will feel blessed) Blessed

In our darkest hour... In my deepest despair
Will U still care? Will U be there?
In my trials and my tribulations... Through our doubts and frustrations
In my violence... In my turbulence... Through my fear and my confessions
In my anguish and my pain... Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'll never let U part for you're always in my heart!

KEEP THE FAITH
Written and composed by Michael Jackson, Glen Ballard and Siedah
Garret

Mm-hmm If U call out loud... Will it get inside?
Through the heart of your surrender... To your alibis
And U can say the words like U understand
But the power's in believing so give yourself a chance!
Cuz U can... Climb the highest mountain... Swim the deepest sea hee
All U need is the will to want it and a little self-esteem...

So keep the faith... Don't let nobody turn U round
U got to know when it's good to go to get your dreams up off the ground
So keep the faith... Baby yeah
Because it's just a matter of time before your confidence will win out
Believe in yourself no matter what it's gonna take
U can be a winner but U gotta keep the faith!
Gon' keep it brother... U got!

And when U think of trust... Does it lead U home?
To a place that U only dream of when U're all alone
And U can go by feel... 'Stead of circumstance
But the power's in believing  so give yourself a chance
I know that U can... Sail across the water... Float across the sky, high
Any road that U take will get U there if U only try!

So keep the faith... Ow
Don't let nobody take U down brother
Just keep your eyes on the prize, Feet flat on the ground
So keep the faith, Baby yeah
Because it's just a matter of time before your confidence will win out
I told my brother how to do the thing right
Lift up your head and show the world U got pride
Go for what U want, Don't let them get in your way
U can be a winner but U gotta keep the faith!
Gon' keep it brother... U got!

I know that keepin the faith... Means never givin up on love
But the power that love has... Has to make it right
Makes it... Makes it right!

So keep the faith (faith)
Don't let nobody turn U round brother
U got to know when it's good to go, Get your dreams up off of the ground

So keep the faith, Baby yeah
Because it's just a matter of time before your confidence will win out
Better stand up and act like U wanna do it right
Don't play the fool for the rest of your life
Work on it brother and you'll make it someday
Go for what U want and don't forget the faith
Look at yourself and what your doin right now
Stand back a minute just to check yourself out
Straighten up your life and how you’re livin each day
Get yourself together cuz U gotta keep the faith

Don't let nobody take U down brother
Just keep your eyes on the prize... Your feet flat on the ground
So keep the faith, Baby yeah
Because it's just a matter of time before your confidence will win out
Lift up your mind before your mind gets blown
Some things in life you're best just leave them alone
Go for what U want, Don't let it get in your way
U can make it happen but U gotta keep the faith...
 (Keep the faith) Gon' keep it brother, U got to keep the faith
(Yeah keep the faith) Gon' keep it sista, U got to keep the faith

I told my brother how to do the thing right
Lift up your head and show the world U got pride
Go for what U want, Don't let them get in Ur way
U can be a winner if U keep the faith
Straighten out yourself and get your mind on track
Dust off your butt and get your self-respect back
You've know me long enough to know that I don't play
Take it like U want it but U got to keep the faith
Gon'

Don't let nobody take U down
Just keep your eyes on the prize, Your feet flat on the ground
So keep the faith, Baby yeah
Because it's just a matter of time, before your confidence will win out
But till that day... I said, “U gotta keep the faith!”

GONE TOO SOON
Written by Buz Kohan
Composed by Larry Grossman

Like a comet... Blazing 'cross the evening sky
Gone too soon
Like a rainbow... Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon
Shiny and sparkly and splendidly bright
 Here one day... Gone one night
Like the loss of sunlight... On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon
Like a castle... Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon
Like a perfect flower... That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon
Born to amuse... To inspire to delight
Here one day, Gone one night
Like a sunset... Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon

DANGEROUS
Written and composed by Michael Jackson, Bill Bottrell and Teddy Riley

The way she came into the place... I knew right then and there
There was something different about this girl
The way she moved... Her hair... Her face... Her lines... Divinity in motion!
As she stalked the room... I could feel the aura of her presence
Every head turned to feel the passion and lust
The girl was persuasive... The girl I could not trust
The girl was bad... The girl was dangerous!

I never knew but I was walking the line
Come go with me, I said, “I have no time!”
And don't U pretend, We didn't talk on the phone
My baby cried, She left me standing alone
She's so...
[Chorus:]
Dangerous!
The girl is so... Dangerous! (Hee-hee)
Take away my money, Throw away my time
U can call me honey but you’re no damn good for me!

She came at me in sections with the eyes of desire
I felt trapped into her web of sin
A touch... A kiss... A whisper of love... I was at the point of no return
Deep in the darkness of passion's insanity
I felt taken by... Lust's strange inhumanity
This girl was persuasive... This girl I could not trust
The girl was bad... The girl was dangerous!

I never knew but I was living in vain
She called my house, U said U know my name (My name)
And don't U pretend U never did me before
With tears in her eyes, My baby walked out the door

[Repeat Chorus]

Dangerous... The girl is so Dangerous! (Hee-hee)

I have to pray to God cuz I know how lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul
But you're no damn lover, Friend of mine
(Hee-hee) (Whoo!)

I cannot sleep alone at night... My baby left me here tonight
I cannot cope till it's all right
U and your manipulation... U hurt my baby!

And then it happened... She touched me
For the lips of a strange woman drop as a honeycomb
And her mouth was smoother than oil
But her inner spirit was as sharp as a two edged sword
But I loved it... Cuz it's dangerous!

[Repeat Chorus Thrice]

Dangerous... The girl is so dangerous!
(Hee-hee) (Whoo!)

I have to pray to God cuz I know how lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul
But you're no damn lover, Friend of mine!
 (Ad lib to fade)
