anybody know the song Rollercoaster of Love? I guess it's from the 70s or 80s, and even if you don't know it do you know where I can find the lyrics for it online????
------------------
Dashing and daring,
courageous and caring,
faithful and friendly with stories to share.
All through the forest the sing out in chorus, marching along as their song fills the air;
Gummi bears, bouncing here and there and everywhere. high adventure that's beyond compare.
They are gummi bears.
Magic and mystery, a part of their history,
along with the secret of gummi bear juice.
Legend is growing,
they feel by the knowing,
they fight for what's right in whatever they do:
Gummi Bears!
bouncing here and there and everywhere;
high adventure that's beyond compare, they are the gummi bears.
They are the gummi bears!
~Thank you Jim! lol

It's originally by the Ohio Players, (70s), and was re-done by the Red Hot Chili Peppers for the Beavis and Butthead soundtrack (90s). You've probably heard it and would recognize it if you heard it again.
I don't know all the lyrics, but just go to www.google.com (http://www.google.com) and type in "roller coaster of love" and I'm sure you'll find lyrics.

Ok, actually the song is called Love Rollercoaster, not Roller Coaster of Love.... and since I'm such a sweety, and since I have nothing better to do besides avoid homework, here are the lyrics for you:
________________________________________
YOU GIVE ME THAT FUNNY FEELING IN MY TUMMY....
ahw ****, yeah, that's right huh
Rollercoaster of Love
say what
Rollercoaster yeah (oohh oohh oohh)
Oh baby you know what I'm talking about
Rollercoaster of Love
oh yeah it's Rollercoaster time
lovin' you is really wild
Oh itīs just a love rollercoaster
step right up and get your tickets
Chorus:
Your love is like a Rollercoaster baby,baby
I wanna ride yeah (awawaw)
Move over dad 'cause I'm a double dipple
Upside down on th big dip dipper
1,2,1,2,3 Iīve got a ticket come ride with me
Let me go down on the marry-go-round
All is fair 'n' a big fair ground
Let's go slow. let's go fast
Like a liqourice twist gonna whip your ass.
Rollercoaster
say what
I will be there for you I will be your man.

On a side note, I also found this interesting tidbit, coming from an urban legends page. I had never heard this urban legend before and thought I'd share:
'Love Rollercoaster'
is that the scream of a murdered/dying woman on the Ohio Players' song?
internet versions of 'the legend'..
"Remember the "classic" song "Love Roller Coaster" by the Ohio Players? Well the rumor going around the Passaic, NJ YWCA was that one of the screams in the song was that of a real woman being murdered. Apparently, the song was recorded in the band's apartment, and a woman was being killed by an intruder."
"Someone brought up something to me yesterday regarding a 70's song called "Roller Coaster". I don't remember a thing about the song, but I *do* remember my brother telling me (I was about eight or younger at the time), that a scream in the background of the song was recorded inadvertantly, and was actually a cleaning woman screaming as she was stabbed during the recording of the song."
"The cover of the album ("Honey" by the Ohio Players) depicts a nude model kneeling atop what appears to be a sheet of glass, dripping honey all over herself from a ladle suspended above her head. The original UL was that the glass was actually Fiberglas (or some other synthetic), which reacted chemically with the honey, bonding her skin, like Superglue, to the Fiberglas. Freeing her ripped the skin off her legs, and her career as a model was ruined. Sooooo... she just happens to burst in to the recording studio while the Ohio Players are recording "Rollercoaster," and starts threatening to sue the band for everything they're worth. The band's manager stabs her to death right there in the control booth, and that's the scream you hear in the song."
other variations n' stuff:
the screams are those of a woman who fell to her death while actually riding the Blue Streak Rollercoaster at the Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio..
the screams on the record were taken from tapes of inmates undergoing shock therapy at a mental institution..
the murder site has been said to be an apartment next to the one the band is recording in, just outside the studio, in an adjacent studio, in the control room, and in the studio itself..
the dead woman's identity has been said to be everything from an uknown victim, a cleaning woman, one of the group members' girlfriend, or the model who posed for the album cover..
--------------------------
well..here's the 'real deal'..
Ohio Player Jimmy "Diamond" Williams explains:
"There is a part in the song where there's a breakdown. It's guitars and it's right before the second verse and Billy Beck does one of those inhaling-type screeches like Minnie Ripperton did to reach her high note or Mariah Carey does to go octaves above. The DJ made this crack and it swept the country. People were asking us, 'Did you kill this chick in the studio?' The band took a vow of silence because that makes you sell more records."

lol. I know this doesn't mean anything to anyone, but no one knows how much I HATE that song! My mom is a big 70's music fan so she has all these big records and then these little half record thingys that are smaller then real records but they are still records. ANYWAYS I like some 70's music. The Beegees are ok, and I absolutely LOVE Abba. The Monkeys are cool too. (Wait were they 70's?) Oh well. 60's and 50's music is cool too. Little Anthony and the Imperials, Deon and the Belmonts, Diana Ross and the Supremes, the Delphonics, Mary Wells, the Platters, Young Rascals, the Shirells, the Temptations, and so on and so forth. WOW I have gotten OT. Well c ya http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/wave.gif
