Lyrics Teena Marie

Teena Marie

Emerald City

It was the kinda set you read about in storybooks

Where everybody showed but no one came

And every time I looked into the most familiar face

It seemed they all had gone and changed their names

Ms. Sureal Cartier and Ms. Say-D-Michelline

Provided entertainment for the ball

And even though the sleeper has awakened

I think she never really sleeps at all

I'm going wild in Emerald City

Wild all night long

I'm going wild in Emerald City

Wild all night long

It was the kind of thing you thirsted for but never quenched

Until you happened on an Amstel Light

And even though the brew was cold it couldn't chill me out

And then somebody offered me a light

I said thank-you no Ni Nikki but you know I don't indulge

But how's about electrifying solo

He said I think I could oblige you

With my guitar even blind you

I said hey baby take a walk on the wild side

I'm going wild in Emerald City

Wild all night long

I'm going wild in Emerald City

Listening to the rhythms of my song

Oh I'm going wild-oh I'm going wild

Look around you baby baby everything's so green

You got to feel it baby

Listen to the rhythms of my song

I'm going wild

I'm going crazy
