Robert Palmer

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer and songwriter. He was known for his powerful, soulful voice and sartorial elegance, and for his stylistic explorations, combining soul, funk, jazz, rock, pop, reggae, and blues. While his "four-decade career incorporated every genre of music", Palmer is best known "for the pounding rock-soul classic, 'Addicted to Love', and its accompanying video, which came to epitomise the glamour and excesses of the 1980s."Having started in the music industry in the 1960s, including a spell with Vinegar Joe, he found success in the 1980s, both in his solo career and with the Power Station, scoring Top 10 hits in the United Kingdom and the United States.

You're lonely can I see you
I hire a private red-eye rocket
But when I walk in here
You want to go through all my pockets
What's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
I've known you all these years
And still you overhaul my letters
They don't confirm your fears
But when I'm dead you'll know me better
What's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I haven't made the first move
What's it take to get it through to you mamma? 
What does it take to love you? 
I take you out to dinner
You ask me why I'm acting guilty
I thought I'd backed a winner
This love affair is gonna kill me
What's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
You say you're only teasing
I want to try a new position
You want to know the reason
I've got a spanish inquisition
What's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I haven't made the first move
What's it take to get it through to you mamma? 
What does it take to love you? 
I want to hear the gossip
You say I like a real ambition
I ask you if you've got it
You document my inhibitions
What's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
Mamma what's it take? 
What's it take?
