The makings of you
Add a little sugar, honeysuckle and
A great, big expression of happiness
Boy, you couldn't miss with a dozen roses
Such would astound you
The joy of children laughing around you
These are the makings of you
It is true, the makings of you
The righteous way to go
Little one would know
Or believe if I told them so
You're second to none
The love of all mankind
Should reflect some sign
Of these words I've tried to recite
They are close, but not quite
Almost impossible to do
Reciting the makings of you
The righteous way to go
Little one would know
Or believe if I told them so
You're second to none
The love of all mankind
Should reflect some sign
Of these words I've tried to recite
They are close, but not quite
Almost impossible to do
Reciting the makings of you

THE END OF YOUR WORLD - Lyrics by Jolly Joseph
Downtown should take a look sir cost of living is rising
Downtown should take a look sir Anger is brewing
from town to town around and around Sufferers singing the same song
This is the end of your world believe it or not
This the end of your world this is a wave you can’t stop
Longtime you never heard sir People calling for justice Longtime you never heard sir No justice No peace
Rivers of tears we’ve been crying We don’t wanna cry no more
We don’t wanna cry no more
To many lives your bloody system take We won’t let it take no more
We won’t let it take no more
This is the end of your world believe it or not
This the end of your world this is a wave you can’t stop This is the end of your world this is the talk of the day This the end of your world revolution coming your way
let the sufferers take the lead
Longtime you never heard sir People calling for justice Longtime you never heard sir No justice No peace
from town to town around and around Sufferers singing the same song
This is the end of your world hear the sufferers singing
This the end of your world you better hear the people dem a singing This is the end of your world

Top of My List - Lyrics by Shniece McMenamin
1st Verse:
I was told long ago
If I love deep then I should stay, (should stay, should stay) should stay But what part of myself do I have to give away, (away, away) away
Pre-Chorus:
I gave you my self respect my soul
I gave you everything I’ve ever known
I gave it all, (gave it all, gave it all)
And now that there’s nothing left to give I gotta find the strength to pick myself again, (myself again, myself again) myself again
Chorus:
Cus I wanna be the top of my list, top of my list, top of my list top of my list (It can’t be right if it feels wrong) 2x
2nd Verse:
Too many of us seem to get stuck and we wind up lost, (up lost, up lost) up lost The greatest gift to give ourselves is finding what we’re worth, (we’re worth, we’re worth) we’re worth
Pre-Chorus:
Cus I’ve given myself respect my soul
I gave you everything I’ve ever known
(gave it all, gave it all) I gave it all
But when I had no more to give, I had to find the strength to pick myself again, (myself again, myself again) myself again
Chorus:
Cus I wanna be the top of my list, top of my list, top of my list top of my list (It can’t be right if it feels wrong) 2x
I wanna be, I wanna be top of my list, my list
Bridge:
You see I had no more to give, so I had to find the strength to pick myself again, myself again.
Chorus:
Cus I wanna be the top of my list, top of my list, top of my list top of my list (It can’t be right if it feels wrong) 2x
I wanna be the top of my list

JUST A LITTLE TALK - Lyrics by Jolly Joseph
No fish in the seas
Man have been fishing dem all
No tree on the hills
Man have been cutting dem all
The world you’re living in
Man have been looting it all
(man have been looting it all)
It is just a little talk
But it’s coming from the heart
If we can make the people dance
We can make them think
Think about it think about it
While you’re moving to the beat
Think about it think about it
It is just a little talk
But it’s coming from the heart
If we can make the people dance
let’s make dem break down the wall
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains
No water in the rivers
man have dried up dem all
No bee in the flowers
man have poisoned dem all
The world you’re living in
Man have been burning it all
(man have been burning it all)
It is just a little talk
But it’s coming from the heart
If we can make the people dance
We can make them think
Think about it think about it
While you’re moving to the beat
Think about it think about it
It is just a little talk
But it’s coming from the heart
If we can make the people dance
let’s make dem break down the wall
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains
Free up your mind children
Break up your chains

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last!
