Bad 25 - The Lyrics

this is what I hear out so far


(DoDaDoo)

Are you ready for the real good time my love
Are you ready for the real good treat
There'll be so much dancing singing having fun
you can falling into me (Ah Ah)

So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me [Hey Hey]

So Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me, Hey Hey

if we staring up, then ?if?
we can search for the angels ?crown?
I'll be so proud if you let me know you girl
Let me love you for a little one more step

Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me, Hey Hey

So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me, Hey Hey

(Oh Oh Yeah)
(Oh Oh Yeah)
(Oh Oh Yeah)
(Oh Oh Yeah) (UhUhUhUh)

Now she started fingerpoppin' to the beat
So I said Let's grove out on the floor
She said “Keep your mind on dancin', won't be no romancin'
No No, don't messin' 'round with me”
“I ain't playin'”

Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me, Hey Hey

So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round with me, Hey Hey (Yeeah)

Sometimes I hear:

Are you ready for a feel good time, my love


and other times i hear:

Are you ready for a realgood time, my love



Deciphering MJ lyrics...
 
"Let me love you for a little while mas"

I think that's what MJ is singing. Mas is the Spanish word for more.
 
This is close to the final draft of the lyrics of Dont be messin' 'round. Ive fixed mostly all the ad-libs, corrected conversational lyrics, eddited my previous mistakes, there really is only one more section of lyrics to debate over, and i spent 15 minutes slowing it down and listening carefully. I added what i heard. Could be just a bunch of MJ gibberish, if it is. Ive spelled it out. That particular section does not use the word angel though.

i heard all the "Ah's". but they are very soft. and i'm not sure if we should add them to the lyrics. mike doing this on most songs.
thats why i left them out.
 
If I started lov-ing you, you could save this feeling an-gel cry?
or
If I started lov-ing. you, you could save this feeling and-you'll cry?

I'll be so proud if you let me know you girl
Let me love you for a little while mas

mas = more in spanish
 
why should mike sing one spanish word?
i dont think its "mas"

or does amercian artists generally use one spanish word in a song?

it sound more like "my star"
 
Let me love you for a little while my s**** (ah)

...

So I said, “Let's groove out on the floor”

It has a latin CHA-CHA rhythm, IMO.

Counting cha cha: "two, three, chachacha (=four, one)". The chachacha is where Michael sings 'Don't be messin'.

Example Cha Cha music:

but its definidely not "floor". the last word begins with "pl" or "bl". i can clearly hear B. and there is also no O in it.

yeah, I do here "pl" too. "Playin" or "plain", i dunno
 
It's logical for Michael to ask a girl to hit the dancefloor when she starts fingerpoppin' to the beat. And where else do you groove? :dancin:

Well keep in mind it is a demo so I'm sure MJ wouldn't have kept it in there if he finished the song. Plus MJ recorded IJCSLY in Spanish for Bad so he might of had Spanish words in his mind at the time.
 
How about
I'll be so proud if you let me know you girl
Let me love you for a little while... (miss)
 
miss may work, and have we come to an agreement becuase it still looks incomplete.

I def. hear "treat" and "mas", the rest I still have to go back and listen to it a few more times, which I def. don't mind- he he :cheeky:
 
I don't hear "mas" (mas would't really make that much sense anyway). I hear "my" then something with the s sound, then something else after that
 
I don't hear "mas" (mas would't really make that much sense anyway). I hear "my" then something with the s sound, then something else after that
Mas would make sense.

"Let me love you for a little while more" is what it translates to. That makes sense to me.

Still "little while more" sounds odd + it doesn't make that much sense that he would throw in a spanish word when he's singing a demo like this.

Also, he just aint singing "mas". I think he is singing "My star" - clearer audio:
http://soundcloud.com/pentum/mystar
 
I think "mas" would make sense since around that time he sang a song in spanish and might rubbed on him, however in P's post its pretty clear he says "my star". Thanks for the clearer audio Pentum, you cleared that up :D
 
The first time I heard it I thought it was Let me love you for a little while, my sweet

thanks. lol. now some lyrics sounds very plausible. haha. ^^
but "floor" is definitely not "floor"
and what about "feel it"? did we missed something?


Are you ready for a real good ?thing?

?In a starlit night you can feel me?
?You can sence an angel cry?


She said Keep your ?mama? dancin', won't be no romancin'


doesnt really sound like this




Let me love you for a little while must

does that make sence?

With all due respect, some of these lyrics can not be correct.

"She said to keep your MAMA dancin'"? He CLEARLY sings "your MIND ON dancin'". You can clearly hear "mind ON".

"Are you ready for a real good THING"? He CLEARLY does NOT sing "THING"! LOL!

I'm also doubting a few others. Sorry, I don't trust this.

Are the Japanese lyrics offical, if so they might want to check them. Unless Michael wrote down different lyrics than he sung.


OH AND IN THE BOOKLET: Angel is spelled Angle.
