Cloud Nine

A-who, who, awho, who... Dennis: The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty. You see, I was born and raised in the slums of the city. It was a one room shack we slept in, other children beside me. We hardly had enough food or room to sleep. It was a hard times, needed something to ease my troubled mind. Paul: Ooo, listen. My father didn't know the meaning of work. He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt. I left home seekin' a job that I never did find. Depressed and down-hearted, I took to Cloud 9. I'm doing...(fine) Up here. (On cloud nine) Listen one more time. I'm doing...(fine) Up here. (On cloud nine) Dennis: Folks now they tell me. They say, give yourself a chance and don't let life pa*s you by. But the world around you is a rat race. Where only the strong survive. It's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie. (Ain't no lie) Listen, it ain't even safe no more, to walk the streets at night. Eddie: I'm doing fine on Cloud 9. Dennis: Let me tell you about Cloud 9. (Cloud 9)Paul: You can be what you wanna be. (Cloud 9)Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility. (Cloud 9)Eddie: Every man, every man is free. (Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality. (Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9. Eddie: I wanna say I love the life I live. And I'm gonna live the life I love. Up here on Cloud 9. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I'm riding high on Cloud 9. Dennis: You're as free as a bird in flight. (Cloud 9)Melvin: There's no diff'rence between day and night. (Cloud 9)Eddie: It's a world of love and harmony. (Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality. (Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9. Paul: You can be what you wanna be. (Cloud 9)Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility. (Cloud 9)Eddie: Every man in his mind is free. (Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality. (Cloud 9)Paul: You can be what you wanna be. Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom... Eddie: I'm feeling fine on Cloud 9.
