Today's the day, we're out to play. 
And lost our way, it's always the same oh baby now, 
Climbed the trees, swam the seven seas. 
We've grazed our knees and no ones to blame 

Come and sit beside us, we'll give you such a thrill. 
We're not nice, we're cool as ice, we'll give you quite a chill. 
Let your imagination take over on this ride. 
Out of sight, all right. 
(Hold on tight) 

[Chorus]
Come on, Come on, Get it on. 
Riding in our rollercoaster, come on 
Come along, Get it on 
Riding in our rollercoaster of love. 

So don't be shy, You'll soon be high.
We'll touch the sky 
You'll never believe, oh baby now. 
Go round and round, But don't look down 
We won't be found, you'd better believe it. 

Come and sit beside us, we'll give you such a thrill. 
We're not nice, we're cool as ice, 
We'll give you quite a chill, 
Let your imagination take over on this ride 
Out of sight, all right, 
(Hold on tight) 

[chorus: x3]

Of love 
Of love 
Of love
