Get Up Offa That Thing

All good ones above, for sure. Thanks for turning me on to Bodyheat -- I'd never really listened closely to that one, but I'm checking it out now and it's cool.

Sex Machine is probably my fave, but I'd like to throw out Get Up Offa That Thing as a pretty sweet line.

I always kind of liked Doing It To Death, too.

Maybe I'm alone on this, but my favorite is probably Funky President. And what a insane song on it's own. He has my vote.
