Subject: Superfreak lyrics

Written By: drajparker on 02/06/04 at 10:27 p.m.

I am going crazy trying to find the CORRECT lyrics for Superfreak by Rick James....All of the lyrics I find on the internet are WRONG.. I am sure that  "long, and black and shiny" follow "In a Limousine" and that "Menage a trois, ooh la la" is in that same verse.. but EVERY website has:

She's a very special girl
The kind of girl you want to know
>From her head down to her toenails
Down to her feet, yeah
And she'll wait for me at backstage with her girlfriends
In a limousine
Going back in Chinatown

Three's not a crowd to her, she says
"Room 714, I'll be waiting"
When I get there she's got incense, wine and candles
It's such a freaky scene


And is it "New Wave Magazine" that he says, or something else?

Thanks

Super Freak
Rick James

She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow girl

She likes the boys in the band
She says that I'm her all-time favorite
When I make my move to her room it's the right time
She's never hard to please

{Refrain}
That girl is pretty wild now
The girl's a super freak
The kind of girl you read about
In new-wave magazine
That girl is pretty kinky
The girl's a super freak
I really love to taste her
Every time we meet
She's all right, she's all right
That girl's all right with me, yeah
She's a super freak, super freak
She's super-freaky, yow

Super freak, super freak

She's a very special girl
The kind of girl you want to know
>From her head down to her toenails
Down to her feet, yeah
And she'll wait for me at backstage with her girlfriends
In a limousine
Going back in Chinatown

Three's not a crowd to her, she says
"Room 714, I'll be waiting"
When I get there she's got incense, wine and candles
It's such a freaky scene

{Refrain}

{Bridge}

Temptations sing!
Ohhhhh
Super freak, super freak
That girl's a super freak
Ohhhhh

She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow girl

Blow, Danny!

Actually, those are the wrong ones too...as a matter of fact, those are the same wrong ones found all over the internet...I want the real ones...with "Menage a trois, Ooh la la"

I do not think the Chinatown line is real either...

That's because it's sung in the background; you can't hear it very well. But it is there. :) Read Macaroni's response and you'll see that all the background lyrics are in parentheses.

???
I just do not understand why he would put a line about Chinatown in the song... it does not make sense.... Doesn't "Long and Black and Shiny" make more sense?...
Is there some book or something that can be checked?  I feel as though someone made a transcription of the songs lyrics, and it has circulated around the internet, even though it is incorrect.

It's probably long black and shiny instead of chinatown because he's describing the limo.
