Black Box's seminal 'Ride On Time' transcribed phonologically…

…because I'm bored at work.

Altogether now!

"WAAAAAAAAAA – HO! WAAAAAAAAA - HO! WA-WA-WA-WAAAAAAA-HO, WA-WA-WAAAAAAAA-HO!

(Gonna get up, gonna get up, gonna get up) TAAACH-TAAACH-TAAAACH YA, BAAAABY!

YOU'RE SUCH A, YOU'RE SUCH A - HOTTTT TEMPTATIIIION! YOU'RE SUCH A - HOTTTT TEMPTATIIIIION!

YOU JUST WAAAALK RIIIGHT IN, WAAAAALK-WAAAAALK-WAAAALK RIIIGHT IN IT, COS YOU'RE RIIIIIIIIIIIDE ON TIIIIIME!!!"

Ah, that felt good.

FUN FACT: As you might have guessed, the woman who belted out vocals for this track was in actuality a full-on Aretha-sized Mama. However, in the image-based world of 80s pop, it was decided that the lithe lady pictured above was a more acceptable face for the record.
