[Part I: I Want You Back]
[Intro: Michael Jackson & (The Jackson 5)]
Uh-huh huh huh
Let me tell ya now, uh-huh
(Mmm, mhm)
[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jackson 5)]
Oh, baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart?
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now, since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
[Post-Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jackson 5)]
Yes, I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh, ooh, baby
(I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I want you back
Na, na, na, na
(I want you back)
[Part II: ABC]
[Intro: Michael Jackson & (The Jackson 5)]
Uh-buh-buh-buh-buh buh
(Uh-buh-buh-buh-buh buh)
[Verse 1: Michael Jackson & Jermaine Jackson]
You went to school to learn, girl
Things you never, never knew before
Like "I" before "E" except after "C"
And why 2 plus 2 makes 4
Now, now, now, I'm gonna teach you
(Teach you, teach you)
All about love, girl
(All about love)
Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me
[Chorus: Michael Jackson & The Jackson 5]
ABC
Easy as, 1, 2, 3
As simple as, do-re-mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3
Baby, you and me, girl
ABC
It's easy, it's like counting up to three
1, 2, 3
Sing a simple melody
Do-re-mi, ABC
That's how easy love can be
That's how easy love can be
Sing a simple melody (That's how easy can be)
1, 2, 3, you and me
[Bridge: Michael Jackson & The Jackson 5]
Hi-ya!
Sit down, girl
I think I love ya
And all I want you to do is repeat after me
Say "ABC" (ABC)
Say "1, 2, 3" (1, 2, 3)
ABC (ABC)
Say "1, 2, 3" (1, 2, 3)
Shake it, shake it baby, come on now
Shake it, shake it baby, ooh, ooh
Shake it, shake it baby, ho
1, 2, 3, baby, ooh-ooh
ABC baby, na-na
Do-re-mi, baby, oh
That's how easy love can be
[Outro: Michael Jackson & The Jackson 5]
ABC, it's easy
It's like counting up to three
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be
[Part III: The Love You Save]
[Intro: The Jackson 5]
Stop! Nanana! You'd better save it!
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it!
Woo!
[Chorus: Michael Jackson]
Stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow
Or some day you'll be all alone
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
[Bridge: Jackson 5]
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
[Outro: Jackson 5]
S is for "Save it"
T is for "Take it slow"
O is for "Oh, no"
P is for "Please, please, don't go!"
