Stage 2
Our lab’s modification on The Temptations classic bump.

Bella throws it down over a James Brown style groove, and Dumpstaphunk’s Alex Wasily brings a New Orleans style Trombone Solo to the edge of the Milky Way.

lyrics

I can turn the gray sky blue, Oh I
I can make it rain, whenever I want it to, I
I can build a castle from a single grain of sand, Oh I
I can make a ship sail on dry land yeah
But my life is incomplete and I'm so blue
'Cause I can't get next to you

I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you

I Can fly like a bird in the sky, Oh I
I can buy anything that money can't buy, I
I can turn a river into a raging fire, Oh I
And I can live forever if I so desired
Unimportant are all the things I can do
'Cause I can't get next to you

I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you

Chica boom, boom
Chica boom, boom, boom
Chica boom, boom
Chica boom, boom, boom

I can turn back the hands of time, you better believe I can, Oh I
And I can make the seasons change, just by waving my hand, I
I can change anything from old to new, Oh I
But the things I want to do the most, I'm unable to do, Yeah
Unhappy am I with all the powers I possess
'Cause you're the key to my happiness

I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you,
I can't get next to you
