Morcheeba is a British band that mixes influences from trip hop, rhythm and bluesand pop. The word "morcheeba" means "the way of marijuana" ("Mor" - the middle of the way & "Cheeba" - informal name of marijuana). Formed in the mid-1990s, they consisted of Paul Godfrey ( dj), Ross Godfrey on guitar and keyboards with Skye Edwards as the primary vocalist fronting the band. While churning up interest through an underground presence mostly in London, the band finally broke through when featured on the Ultra-Chilled series. Their first two releases seemed to portend a trip-hop based modern psychedelia that they seemed to completely eschew for a meatier, beatier, mom pop-centric sound on 2000's "Fragments Of Freedom".

Good Girl Down Lyrics

Morcheeba

Skye
Roll out the fabric(? ) carpet
So I can walk
Hook up those microphones
So I can talk
Can be the mayor of the city
And clean up all of this mess
Id never be assassinated
In my bullet proof vest
You cant keep a good girl down
No you cant keep a girl down
Ive been lost and found
No, you cant keep a good girl down
You cant keep a good girl down
No you cant keep a girl down
Ive been lost and ive been found
You cant keep a good girl down
Im taking the corners
Driving on two wheels
Im climbing the cliff tops while youre
Grabbing my heels
You cant keep a good girl down
No you cant keep a girl down
Ive been lost and found
No, you cant keep a good girl down
Bahamadia
? ? ? ? ? !!!
? ?
Skye
A round house kick
Would leave you dead
And Ill take the biggest jug and
Smash it over your head
You cant keep a good girl down
No you cant keep a good girl down
Ive been lost and found
No, you cant keep a good girl down
You cant keep a good girl down
No you cant keep a good girl down
Ive been lost and Ive been found
You cant keep a good girl down
