    Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
    They're called the Ghostbusters and they're in control
    Had 'em throwin' a party for a bunch of children
    While all of the while the slime was under the building
    So they packed up their group, got a grip, came equipped
    Grabbed they Proton packs off their back and they split
    Found about Vigo, the master of evil
    Try to battle my boys? That's not legal
    Yeah, I think this is gonna be another one of those funky ones
    Heart & soul, da da dance
    If I was you, and you were me, you'd wanna be winnin'
    If you want somethin' bad, yo, you gotta wanna give your all
    'Cause I believe so much in we and no we're not kiddin'
    If you feel the same as me, yo, you gotta want to take the ball
    Now I found out that nothin' is given
    Don't know where the cards may fall
    All I know is that we've gotta get it
    We've gotta make it on our own
    Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
    (All on our own)
    If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
    (All on our own)
    Now can't you see that all we need to be a go getter
    Gotta make your own decisions, you gotta go for what you know
    It comes a time in our lives, you wanna be bigger
    Gotta keep keep on pushing, you gotta learn to take control, yeah
    Now I found out that nothin' is given
    Don't know where the cards may fall
    All I know is that we've gotta get it
    We've gotta make it on our own
    Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
    (All on our own)
    If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
    (All on our own)
    Gotta, gotta, take it home, gotta, gotta, gotta take it home
    Heart & soul, da da dance
    Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
    They're called the Ghostbusters and they're in control
    Had 'em throwin' a party for a bunch of children
    While all of the while the slime was under the building
    So they packed up their group, got a grip, came equipped
    Grabbed they Proton packs off their back and they split
    Found about Vigo, the master of evil
    Try to battle my boys? That's not legal
    (Oh-we-oh)
    They're in control
    (Oh-we-oh)
    Ya ya ya know it
    (All on our own)
    I said, they're in control
    (Oh-we-oh)
    Ya ya ya know it
    (Oh-we-oh)
    Ya ya ya know it
    (All on our own)
    Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
    (All on our own)
    We got, we got, we got
    We got, we got, we got
    If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
    (All on our own)
    Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
    They're the Ghost busters and they're in control
    Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
    (All on our own)
    Gotta, gotta, take it home
    Gotta, gotta take it home

    A song written about the Ghostbusters slaps harder than 90% of the music in 2023. (I know the song is about being a go getter) 80's and 90's music is just superior. Say what you want about Bobby Brown, the man knew how to entertain.

    I’m glad Bobby got to experience the solo success he did even if it was for a few years bc his peak was MASSIVE! In 1989 he outsold every other popular artist at the time with Don’t Be Cruel. Performance wise Bobby had James Brown/Michael Jackson type of stage presence. And he was arguably just as good of a dancer in his peak. He wasn’t traditionally a godlike singer like a Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, El Debarge, or Johnny Gill but he carried his own vocally in his songs. Bobby shined on stage that’s why he’s known as the KING OF STAGE! He also was one of the first popular r&b artists that consistently rapped in his songs. Him and Teddy Riley were the main pioneers of the New Jack Swing sound that dominated r&b/pop music from the late 80s to early 90s.

      I wish we could get those days back.😢 It feels like they are gone forever and like we are reaching through a void trying to get our 80’s back again. Happy times.
