ANNOUNCER:
[Here she is, falks! The Queen of the Scene!
The Diva with the Fee-vah! Lady Fabulous, 1978! Voulez-vous couchez avec...]

DELORIS:
[... me! Deloris Van Carty - yaaaaay!]

KT/LAROSA:
D-e-l-o-r-i-s!

DELORIS:
[Let's light it up, Philadelphia!]

I've been thinkin' aboutcha
since receivin' your call.
Can't see livin' withoutcha,
you've got me mind, soul,
body and all.

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Pray and I pray
ev'ry night and each day,...

DELORIS:
...hopin' that you'll drop a line.

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Pray and I pray
'til you sweep me away

straight to cloud number nine.
You are simply too divine!

Take me to heaven (heaven)!
Take me to ecstasy (ecstasy!)!
I'll give you all I've got,
'cause nothin's as hot
as when you groove with me.

KT/LAROSA:
No, no, no, no!

DELORIS:
And when you strut your stuff
and do your thing,
I just can't help surrendering.
You're so strong, you're so sweet,...

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
... you're what makes me complete.

DELORIS:
I just worship at your feet.

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Take me to heaven!
Take me to kingdom come!
I'll take any vow...

DELORIS
... just take me now!

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Take me, take me higher!
Take me, take me higher, higher!
Ow!

DELORIS:
[Guess what, y'all - it's my birthday!]

KT/DELAROSA:
[Happy birthday, Deloris!]

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Don't know how you
do what you do, (unh-uh!)
it's like you're almost
too good to be true (uh-huh!).

You're my hope (hope!),
you're my dream (dream!),
you rock my world,
you reign supreme.

DELORIS:
[My man's so nice to me]

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
He's got the boogie - uhh!
that moves my soul!
He's got the boogie - uhh!
make me loose control!

KT/LAROSA:
Beep-beep!
Hoo-hoo-hoo!

DELORIS:
[Now, don'tcha know!]

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
My booty's headin' for a special place,
where people shake it, baby,
wrapped in love's embrace!

DELORIS:
[Listen, we're gonna take a quick five, y'all.

DELORIS/KT/LAROSA:
Take me to heaven!
Take me to paradise!
I'll get on my knees,
just take me please!
Take me there!
