FUNK SHUI

Space is the place, and you gotta clear it
You got to spacify - cause a funky nature loves a vacuum
Hoover! put the house plants by the window
Kirby - clap in the corner, put the four four on the floor floor by the door door
that's right - unstick the stuck stuck energy
All right now, hang that back beat on the wall
to the right a little, up a little, down a little, down a little
No! up a little, not in the middle, you gotta listen for the ancient Chinese riddle, never in the middle, no no
You got to find that funky funk shui way, you got to find that funk shui
You got to find that funky funk shui way, you got to find that funk shui
Colors drippin' down the wall, endless mirrors in the hall
space and time are curvin' slow, feel that funk shui on the toe
Yiin and Yang, Tom and Jerry, Smith and Hawken, Crate and Barrel
Put a yellow Andre Couch against that wall at your own peril
Don't let your clutter get caught in your wrecked angle
The penta, the hexa, the octa, they're more than gone, they're out of sight
Over here the bowl of fruit - over there the croissant light and flaky
Art and craft, art deco, art nouveau? - No! Art Blakey
Water, earth, wind and fire - I wanta, want to take you higher 
Down to the basement we go bumpty bumpty bump - Ikea
Colors drippin' down the wall, endless mirrors in the hall
space and time are curvin' slow, feel that funk shui on the toe
Funka funk funk funk funka funk, funka funk funka funk
My living room .... was not coming together
It was chaos.
My  mother had come to visit, she'd moved the love seat, added bric a brac and antimacassars, doilies, coasters, Kincaids
I had to call the funky founding father, the first brother, George ..... Clinton
He knows funk, he knows interiors, he showed me intelligent design
He said "What's with the draperies? what you need is shades."
Whoa, so obvious, top to bottom in that big house we got the energy moving
cleared out the mother ship - Papa got a brand new Barcolounger
Murphy bed? ancient relic. Now I sleep on a Temperpedic funk-a-delic - Night Train
Park your slip in mules outside, don't get cutesy with those bootsies
You scuff the floor I have to get on up with my wax machine
Colors drippin' down the wall, endless mirrors in the hall
space and time are curvin' slow, feel that funk shui on the toe
Turn up the fire, turn down the lights, hand me my brandy snifter
enough with the funk, dial up the Drifters
Could you just turn those singing bowls down a little?
Is that the Shiatsu button? or the Swedish?
anyway ...... that's nice .......
