Lyrics
Cee Cee, formally known as Christina Fasano - the Official 'funkywhitegirl' during
1999 through 2001, holding her 2000 Los Angeles R&B Independent Artist of the
Year Award! The CD went on to garner massive positive reviews, independent
radio play and press hitting the top of the MP3 R&B Music Charts right under the Number One National Act - TLC. 'It's Just a Funk Thang,' the title cut off of the
CD took top 10 honors in the 2000 John Lennon Songwriting Contest.
SPIRITUALLY WET
It's Just A Funk Thang
When we all touch down freedom is the crown that we wear
Then pride takes the throne and overthrows the love that we share
Then power takes the tongue and uses it to judge everything
High and mighty fills the mind and suffocates you and me
The time has come to reclaim the love that's in our hearts
Separate but together we all got to play our part
Do what we wanna do, be who we wanna be, open our minds and see
It's Just a Funk Thang
Act how we wanna act, feel how we wanna feel, move on into the real
It's Just a Funk Thang
Contemplation takes my mind and says 'imagine everything is just fine'
Every action, every thought, right or wrong, perfection's paradox
So I go out to the trash and spit out all the judgments on my tongue
Cause acceptance is the key that's gonna bring me to my knees in love
All we really wanna do is have a little fun
With freedom to be who we were born to be
It don't matter who you are let's come together as one, as one
Do what we wanna do, be who we wanna be, open our minds and see
It's Just a Funk Thang
Act how we wanna act, feel how we wanna feel, move on into the real
It's Just a Funk Thang
Funk you, funk me, everybody sing
It's Just A Funk Thang
Funk you, funk me, everybody sing
It's Just A Funk Thang
Live for who you are and take it in stride
Step into your essence and hang on for the ride
Live for who you are and take it in stride
Step into your essence and hang on for the ride
Do what we wanna do, be who we wanna be, open our minds and see
It's Just a Funk Thang
Act how we wanna act, feel how we wanna feel, move on into the real
It's Just a Funk Thang

Sweet And Sour
Sweet and Sour
Two friends of mine
Sweet and Sour
Two friends of mine
We grew up together
Sweet you know she warms me with the sunshine even when it rains
I look for clouds, but only blue skies, sprinkles on my face
And I’m walkin,’ yes I’m walkin’ with a spring all in my step
When Sour suddenly appears, turns all my rights to left
Sweet and Sour, two friends of mine
We grew up together inside the dreams of life
I tried to let them to let them go, go my separate way
But I found my life it had no taste
My good friend Sour fills my head with clouds, that’s how he likes to play
Its hide and seek inside my mind lookin’ for my Sweet
And I’m messed up, yes I’m messed up with all this Sour in my face
I need some positive to keep the negative all in place
Sweet and Sour, two friends of mine
We grew up together inside the dreams of life
I tried to let them to let them go, go my separate way
But I found my life it had no taste
Can you appreciate blue skies when you ain’t seen clouds
Can you appreciate love when you ain’t felt hate
Can you appreciate good, when you don’t know bad
There’s a balance, positive and negative to be had, can ya dig it
Sweet and Sour, two friends of mine
We grew up together inside the dreams of life
I tried to let them to let them go, go my separate way
But I found my life it had no taste

Overflow
Movin’ through the mud that weighs my mind down
If I could I’d run out of my skin
Cause freedom calls my soul
Out of this routine world that we know
Somethin’s got ta give
Ta tear these walls down
My Spirit wants to live irrespective
Of all these inside rules
I’ve got to break free and love will be my tool
Overflow, freedom flow
Move me into, into soul
Stretch me out ‘tween sky and earth
Set my rhythm free, give me birth
I’m dreamin’ of a place, inside of silence
I hear a different voice and so I look in
I’m staring back at me, and I’m so peaceful
There’s freedom in my soul
Intuition calls and says release me
I’m the one ya need, I’ve got your hearts key
Here, unlock the door, can’t you feel it
Your soul is giving birth
Overflow, freedom flow
Move me into, into soul
Stretch me out ‘tween sky and earth
Set my rhythm free, give me birth

Rock With You
It don’t matter to me if your green
It don’t matter to me if your blue
It don’t matter if your red, yellow, pink
I just wanna rock with you
It don’t matter to me if your short
It don’t matter to me if your tall
It don’t matter if your fat, skinny, bald
I just want to Rock With You
Rock With You, under blue skies
Rock With You under the clouds
Climb inside of essence, surface disappears
And love is the only thing we wear
It don’t matter to me if your straight
It don’t matter to me if your gay
It don’t matter what kind of sex you frame
I just want to rock with you
It don’t matter to me if your 90
It don’t matter to me if your 20
It don’t matter if you’re 11-1/2 goin’ on 12
I just want to Rock With You
Rock With You, under blue skies
Rock With You under the clouds
Climb inside of essence, surface disappears
And love is the only thing we wear
‘Cause I don’t believe we are really made of skin and bones
And I don’t believe we are really what we think
But I do believe when we strip down beyond the senses
This is where we’re free
Rock with You, Rock With You
Climb inside of essence and love is the only thing we wear
Rock With You, under blue skies
Rock With You under the clouds
Climb inside of essence, surface disappears
And love is the only thing we wear

Won't You Gaze
Won't you gaze upon the curve of my neck
As it gently falls into my shoulders
Won't you linger there
My blood will rush to meet your stare
Your gaze will seep into my pores
Into my bloodstream
And take my heart into surrender
And I imagine tiny kisses on my skin
Your cooling breath upon the heat beneath my hair
One long gaze of love and I am slain
Won't you Gaze upon the curve of my neck
As it gently falls into my shoulders
Won't you linger there
Won't you linger there
_____________________________________________________
Hungry Love
Driven by the sounds that echo in my soul
Driven by the rush of my blood
The demon of desire has crawled into my bones
My mind poundin’ rhythms of love
In the silence I can feel breath on my spine
Moonlight touches my skin
Oh the taste on my lips is sweet like cheap red wine
Obsession fills the room and takes me in
Hungry Love aches inside of me
Hungry Love promises to please
Hungry Love got to want it, fill it,
Satisfy it no no you got to thrill it
Seductions company the appetite of need
Memorized by Hungry Love
Hungry Hungry, Hungry Hungry
Hungry Hungry Love
Is it real or just a dream
Can I hear or see or feel it
From my heart or from my soul
Or is my mind that’s got the hold
A temptation when I’m empty
Can this desire fill my lonely
Crazy from the fever I hear the whisper of my name
Desperation so thick I can hardly breath
Next thing I know I’m standin’ naked out in the rain
Cryin’ please please Lord cool this fire inside of me
Hungry Love flirtin’ with my need
Hungry Love you know it drips into my blood stream
Hungry Love got to want it, fill it, satisfy it, no no you got to thrill it
I lay here in the heat with seductions company
Mesmerized by Hungry Love
Hungry Hungry, Hungry Hungry
Hungry Hungry Love
Hungry Love aches inside of me
Hungry Love promises to please
Hungry Love got to want it, fill it,
Satisfy it, no no you got to thrill it
Seductions company the appetite of need
Memorized by Hungry Love
Hungry Hungry, Hungry Hungry
Hungry Hungry Love

Blue Moon Inn
Stars reflecting on the water
Palm trees leaning in the wind
Clinging dresses and silk suits
Mingling at the Blue Moon Inn
In the breeze you smell her fragrance
Your eyes slide down her silhouette
You move with her into the rhythm
At the Blue Moon, The Blue Moon Inn, Blue Moon Inn
Good times, wipe out the bad times
When you loose yourself at The Blue Moon Inn
Your mind goes on vacation
When you spend some time
At The Blue Moon Inn
Glistening people swirling 'round
Laughing drinking spirits down
Reclining with a cigarette
Your skin against the red velvet
What a feeling of romance, continental ambiance
As you disappear into her kiss
At The Blue Moon, The Blue Moon Inn, Blue Moon Inn
Good times, wipe out the bad times
When you loose yourself at The Blue Moon Inn
Your mind goes on vacation
When you spend some time
At The Blue Moon Inn
All different kind a shoes gonna step into the night
All walks of life havin' a good time
Warm evening sky, glow of candlelight
All the questions why, you leave them all behind
In the sand, white stucco walls
Shadowed glass and tall green willows
Where time and hearts are spent
At The Blue Moon, The Blues Moon Inn, Blue Moon Inn
Good times, wipe out the bad times
When you loose yourself at The Blue Moon Inn
Your mind goes on vacation
When you spend some time
At The Blue Moon Inn

The Meltdown
Let me take you to a place I know
Liberate your body mind and soul
Bring everything that you think you know to The Meltdown
Bring all the images you think you hate
Bring all your prejudice it's not to late
To rid yourself of everything that's fake
Burn it up at The Meltdown
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Raise your arms, shake and stomp your feet
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Sweat it out, give it complete release
The Meltdown is a place you go
Inside yourself baby don't you know
Gotta burn the stuff that binds your soul at The Meltdown
Sometimes you need to rearrange
De-crystalize what's in your brain
Tear down the walls and take a break
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Raise your arms, shake and stomp your feet
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Sweat it out, give it complete release
You got a high rise of opinions and routines
And all your love is buried underneath
Can't you feel the weight, your soul's in need
Can't you feel the weight, your soul's in need
You got to burn the negative out
You got to burn the negative out
You got to burn the negative out
Before it leaves you tight and bound
You got to melt the negative down
You got to melt the negative down
You got to melt the negative down
Before it leaves you tight and bound
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Raise your arms, shake and stomp your feet
It's time, it's time, it's time
To burn it up at The Meltdown
Sweat it out, give it complete release

Welcome to The Workshop
A babe is born
Welcome to this world, welcome to our love
The parents cry
A Spiritual Man passes by, whispers in a sigh
Welcome to the Workshop
Welcome to the Workshop
Welcome to the Workshop
She meditates, goes behind her thoughts
Calms down the monkey mind
There she sees love and hate, runnin’ her machine
And together they sing
Welcome to the Workshop
Welcome to the Workshop
This is where you pound it out
Grind until you’re smooth
Life will give you what you need
Situations are your tools
Can’t you hear the hammers poundin’
Listen closely now
Take a look and you can feel
Wall’s goin’ up and common’ down
Welcome to the Workshop
Welcome to the Workshop
I’m talkin’ ‘bout love, anger, hate, greed
It’s all sandpaper, hammers, nails and grease
Somebody rubs your wrong, somebody rubs you right
It’s all sandpaper for your pride
Somebody gives you love and then it slips away
In greasy fingers love won’t stay
Somebody back stabs you with a smilin’ face
All those knives gonna find your rage
In all these things I’m sayin’ to you (listen up)
Situations are your tools (can you hear, can ya see)
Any game you need to play ( can what feel, what I say)
Mother Earth will lead the way
Welcome to the Workshop
Welcome to the Workshop
A babe is born
Welcome to this world, to our love
The parents cry
A Spiritual Man passes by, and he whispers in a sigh
Welcome to the Workshop

Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Separate steps in our days, we respect the difference in our ways
Cause underneath our skin, blood and bones
Is a precious and tender love, stronger than gold
Ups and downs, highs and lows
From a mountain of love the river always flows
‘Cause a gushin’ river or a tricklin’ stream
And the ocean gets higher with the love we need
When I feel the real inside the rush
When I feel the happy inside your touch
All the love in the breath between us
I know Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Like the trees in life, we stand side by side
And the roots of our love have grown deep inside
Surrounded our hearts, entangled our souls
And in the storms of life, it’s been the thing that holds
When I see how love has given us
Lessons in the gifts of trust
I sing with celebration of our love
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
When there’s give and take, take and give
When we can say how we feel and those words are real
When you can be you, and I can be me
This love, your love, my love,
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang, Good Thang, Good Thang
Our Love is a Good Thang

Reciprocate
Contemplation of natures situation
Has taken my mind into realization
About the organization of reciprocation
The moon lights up the night and turns the sky to passion blue
The stars turn on their shine, the sun retires in graditude
This is nature and her laws, hand in hand they work their cause
There’s something here that’s comin’ clear
If I take a look, maybe I will hear
Reciprocate, natures little game
Reciprocate, share and give and take
Back and forth it goes inside the groove of soul
Love love reciprocate
It’s a little game that I want to play
A rollar coaster call it give and take
Back and forth it goes, seduction of the soul
Love will reciprocate
The flowers reach up for the sun who heats um up with love
The bees come round and drink the nectur sweet harmonium
A velvet frangrance fills the air
And suddenly the truth is bare
If you do exactly what you’re meant to do
The natural law of life will lay it’s gifts on you
Reciprocate, natures little game
Reciprocate, share and give and take
Back and forth it goes inside the groove of soul
Love will reciprocate
It’s a little game that I want to play
A rollar coaster call it give and take
Back and forth it goes, seduction of the soul
Love will reciprocate
Reciprocate, to give and get, do, feel, to move back and forth
Interchange... Reciprocation
Uh! Are ya startin’ ta catch the vibe
Can you feel it? Uh!
Reciprocate, natures little game
Reciprocate, share and give and take
Back and forth it goes inside the groove of soul
Love will reciprocate
It’s a little game that I want to play
A rollar coaster call it give and take
Back and forth it goes, seduction of the soul
Love will reciprocate

When People Change
Wanted a world full of love
In her dreams people smiled and they danced
Everyone had gone below their skin
And found their souls holding hands
People understandin’ people
You know that’s what we need
People, people lovin’ people
You know, you know that love believes
When People Change
The world will rearrange
When People Change
The world will rearrange
Flowers and weeds, sun and clouds
Oh blue skies open up where I’m closed
And I will go below my skin
To search for and throw away my stones
People understandin’ people
You know that’s what we need
People, people lovin’ people
You know, you know that love believes
When People Change
The world will rearrange
When People Change
The world will rearrange
When People Change
The world will rearrange
Step into a waterfall, cleanse your love
Inside the rays of sunshine, won’t you warm your love
Let your love flow into the river, into the sea
From you, from you to me
When People Change
The world will rearrange
When People Change
The world will rearrange
When People Change
The world will rearrange
