Teena Marie
Drama According To Bernadette Cooper
[Intro:]
That's right, baby
New track
I want everybody to sample this
This world is trip
You know, and then you die
But you know what I love about it?
Life goes on and on and on, yeah!

Sing, baby!
[Chorus:]
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper

[Verse 1:]
My best friend came over early this morning
She say around and she acted kinda funny
I asked if she wanted to borrow some money
And then I noticed her; she was eyeing my honey
I went to work; acted like I didn't see
I couldn't get free of my curiosity
Home on the floor; they couldn't make it to the room
She was pumpin' him my way, my way!
So I went and had a drink and try to cool myself down
And there was this racy tellin' joke clown
I had a rough day; I don't wanna hear your jokes
Then he added on to his faletic [?] scenario
"A [?] on his way; he could be in your place!"
Had to think about Jesse [?] Angela's face
Nothing you can say can get me down
'Cause life goes on and on and on
Sounds like drama to me
Sing, baby!
[Chorus:]
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(But life goes on and on and on, it's beautiful)
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(Yeah)

[Verse 2:]
A man homeless with nothing to eat
Another man had ten Mercedes
I say what the hell is wrong with us
What the hell is wrong with this world we live in?
President says we got it good right here
He said in Russian they can't even speak [?]
So if California is where we ought to be
Then why can we feed the hungry?
Sounds like drama to me

[Chorus:]
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(Yeah yeah, baby on and on and on, it's beautiful)
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(life goes on and on and on)
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(Grab onto it, 'cause life goes on and on and on, it's beautiful)
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
(What I love about it, that's what I dream about it)
It goes on and on and on and on and on
That's a hell of a hook
Yes, I love it
Can't pay the bills?
Get knocked down?
Next day you're back up on your feet?
It's beautiful
It's just, it's just life is just wonderful
And it, it goes on and on and on and on and on

[Teena Marie:]
Hey Bernadette, that's my girl, Bernadette
On and on and on, on!

[Bernadette:]
Thank you, Lady T
Yes. Beautiful, it'll work, it'll work
Beautiful, just beautiful
It'll work, it'll work
It's beautiful, life's beautiful
It'll work, it'll work, it'll work

[Verse 2:]
They told me that I couldn't make a comeback
I didn't have nothin' when I lost Klymaxx
Now everybody all around the world
They are pumpin' it my way my way my way my way
Sing!
That's drama according to Bernadette Cooper
Life goes on and on and on
Yes, ooh, I love it, yeah
That's right, baby
Sample this! He he! Beautiful!
Come on, put your hands together and say
On and on and on

[Vamp:]
It's beautiful, so beautiful, life's beautiful
(So what? Can't pay the bills? So what?)
It's beautiful, so beautiful, life's beautiful
(It's beautiful. I'm alive and life goes on and on and on)
Bernadette says
It's beautiful, so beautiful, life's beautiful
(Get knocked upside your head, fall down, break, get off your feet, and on and on and on)
It's beautiful, so beautiful, life's beautiful

[Chorus]

Yes
On and on and on
I love it
It's beautiful just like me
