Lyrics

Connection

[Chorus]

All I want to do is to get back to you

Connection, I just can't make no connection

But all I want to do is to get back to you

[Verse 1]

Everything is going in the wrong direction

The doctor wants to give me more injections

Giving me shots for a thousand rare infections

And I don't know if he'll let me go

[Chorus]

Connection, I just can't make no connection

But all I want to do is to get back to you

Connection, I just can't make it, connection

All I want to do is to get back to you

[Verse 2]

My bags, they get a very close inspection

I wonder why it is that they suspect them

They're dying to add me to their collection

And I don't know if they'll let me go

[Chorus]

Connection, I just can't make no connection

But all I want to do is to get back to you

Connection, I just can't make no connection

And all I want to do is to get back to you

Connection, I just can't make no connection

All I want to do is to get back to you
