Month of Michael Day 18

Song: The Girl is Mine
Artist: Michael Jackson feat. Paul McCartney

Ok, not going to lie, I LOVE this song!! Hahaha. It's so random, the song is hilariously quirky but adorable at the same time and I just LOVE it! The first time I listened to it, I had a grin on my face the entire duration of the song. The tune is catchy, the lyrics are silly, it's just FUN! And that little interaction between Michael and Paul at the end of the song....SO FUNNY!! It kills me every time, especially with Michael's sweet, high-pitched voice :) So adorable! Also, I am 1000% team Michael! I would choose Michael over Paul McCartney every day, every time!

Every night she walks right in my dreams
Since I met her from the start
I'm so proud I am the only one
Who is special in her heart

The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
I know she's mine
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Paul:]
I don't understand the way you think
Saying that she's yours not mine
Sending roses and your silly dreams
Really just a waste of time

Because she's mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Paul:]
I love you more than he
(take you anywhere)

[Michael:]
But I love you endlessly
(loving we will share)

[Michael and Paul:]
So come and go with me
Two on the town

[Michael:]
But we both cannot have her
So it's one or the other
And one day you'll discover
That she's my girl forever and ever

[Paul:]
I don't build your hopes to be let down
'Cause I really feel it's time

[Michael:]
I know she'll tell you I'm the one for her
'Cause she said I blow her mind

The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Michael and Paul:]
She's mine, she's mine
No, no, no, she's mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine

[Paul:]
The girl is mine (mine, mine) yep she's mine (mine, mine)
The girl is mine (mine, mine) yep she's mine (mine, mine)

[Michael:]
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine

[Paul:]
Michael, we're not gonna fight about this, okay?

[Michael:]
Paul, I think I told you, I'm a lover not a fighter

[Paul:]
I've heard it all before, Michael
She told me that I'm her forever lover, you know, don't you remember?

[Michael:]
Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another

[Paul]
Is that what she said?

[Michael:]
Yes, she said it, you keep dreaming

[Paul]
I don't believe it (mine, mine) no

[Michael and Paul:]
The girl is mine (mine, mine)
No, mine
No, mine (mine, mine)

[Paul:]
She's mine mine mine mine mine (mine, mine, mine)

[Michael:]
'Cause the girl is mine (mine, mine)

[Paul:]
No girl is mine (mine, mine)

[Fade-out/repeat]

Another song Michael and Paul did together (Say, Say, Say). I don't know much about this song; when they recorded it, what album it's on/from, etc. I just discovered it on youtube. Again, Michael wins every time he sings! I might be a little biased but I mean, come on! His parts are so much better! And his voice is just, so great!!

Say, say, say what you want
But don't play games with my affection
Take, take, take what you need
But don't leave me with no direction

All alone, I sit home by the phone
Waiting for you, baby
Through the years
How can you stand to hear
My pleading for you dear?
You know I'm crying ooh ooh ooh ooh

Go, go, go where you want
But don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away
So long girl, I see you never

What can I do
Girl to get through to you?
Cause I love you, baby
Standing here, baptisted in all my tears
Baby through the years
You know I'm crying ooh ooh ooh ooh

You never ever worry
And you never shed a tear
You saying that my love ain't real
Just look at my face
These tears ain't drying

You, you, you can never say
That I'm not the one who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray every day
That you'll see things, girl like I do

What can I do girl, to get through to you?
Cause I love you baby
Standing here baptised in all my tears
Baby through the years
You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
