The Crossing (ooh the action...)

[Grace Jones & Paul Morley]
What did you wanna be when you were seventeen? (Burst)
Not bored
And what was the first thing you did to alter that situation of being bored?
I floated on a cloud
Like we all do, I suppose
Not all of us
And then what happened?
The lucky ones
And then what happened? You fell off the cloud?
Oh, I don't, I don't think I ever came down from that cloud, it was wonderful

Oh, the action, oh, the action
Oh, the action, oh, the action
Oh, the action, oh, the action
Oh, the action, oh, the action

Miss Grace Jones
Jones, Jones
Miss Grace Jones

[Jean-Paul Goude]
There was nothing that indicated that Grace could be a star
Except her deep conviction

[Grace Jones]
I think too much vanity in a man irritates me
And
In a woman? Oh, god

[Grace Jones & Paul Morley]
What things make you blush?
Being adored and worshipped
One of the things that makes me blush

Miss Grace Jones

[Jean-Paul Goude]
Grace really has this thing in the back of her head, she really lets herself carry
And when it feels good, she just fits into things, she doesn't analyse too much

I first met Grace at the Russian Tea Room in New York
That was about 1978
She was like the disco queen of that period
