The obligatory end to the album, a year ago, couldn’t fathom the outcome
Check it, Revue II went platinum, gettin’ so damn big, need a magnum
Second time around, doing something different, call the censor now, shedding off our innocence
Double decker record, ready for the triplicate, that HCP, give ‘em a certificate
(Whaddya do? Where do ya go? I wonder what you, have got to show?)
Whoever thought back in the 12th grade, that the Hot Chocolate Party would be changin’ the game?
(How do ya do? Pleasure to know, end the Revue, it’s time to go)
Come on guys, it’s the last track. Let’s get it goin’ again. (HEY)
Album of the century? Try the millennium, from Laguna Seca down to the Aquarium
From the start, barely filling auditoriums, but that’s the ghost of days past, moratorium
Now we working all the way through the valley, Stock, Pebble, LA, all over Cali
Now pay attention, 2 and 0, keepin’ tally, this gotta be one fucking hell of a finale
Got my shades, cuz my future’s so bright now, the party’s back, so relax, all night now
We got it covered, yeah, you know it’s alright now, call us the moon, we on top overnight now
Gotta let ya know, in case y’all forgotten, Revue 2’s done, we’ll deliver in the autumn, we
Started from the bottom, now we still on the bottom, but stick around and follow or we gonna have a problem
Time for the slow down, but I gotta know now, what’ll ya do when the whole thing’s gone?
Time for the show down, but I gotta know now, what’ll ya do when I’m all gone?
On and on, on and on, on and on and on and on
On and on, on and on, on and on and on and on
Change the whole damn game with the videos, kill ‘em daily with original material
Pretending like we nothing but a zero, just a bunch of smokin’ mirrors, be the hero
Since 08, universally adored, you lost in the music, they offer a reward
That HCP cannot be ignored, when we roll up to the party in that “91 ACCORD”
Time for the slow down, and I gotta know now, what’ll ya do when the whole thing’s gone?
Time for the shut down, but I gotta know now, what’ll ya do when I’m all gone?
On and on, on and on, on and on and on and on
On and on, on and on, on and on and on and on
