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".

Love Is Rare Lyrics

Morcheeba

You got a rocket in your pocket
Why can you just let me be
Have you no eyes in your sockets
Or are you just pleased to see me
As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
As you all know
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
Love is rare
I got so holy it hurt
Why was I blessed with this rage
You rub my face in the dirt
And theres a time to turn a new page
As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
As you all know
( as you all know )
You better beware
( you better beware )
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
As you all know
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
As you all know
You better take care
Just take care
Treat me with respect
Because
Love is rare
