  And in a semi-regular feature, and to give some love to one of music's most under-appreciated lyricists, we'll be highlighting some of r n' b luvvaman R.Kelly's very best lyrics.  Today's snippet is from 'Bangin' The  Headboard' :



Baby hold the pillow tight it's bout to be a wild night
Squeak in the bed
And we'll going to make the walls bang
Squeak in the bed
And baby-girl I hope that you can hang
Ooh Ooh
And those are the sounds that were makin'
when were bangin', bangin', bangin', (Yeah)

We'll be bangin', bangin', bangin', b-b-b-angin'
the headboard
