The group was created by producer Frank Farian in 1975 and was composed of four West Indian artists working in London, Germany and the Netherlands: singers Marcia Barrett and Liz Mitchell, model Maizie Williams and DJ Bobby Farrell. Boney M is noted for the mix of white and black music—the producer Farian is white and the singers are black; significantly many songs are black (freedom) songs, for example "No More Chain Gang" in the album Oceans Of Fantasy. Farian first released the single "Baby Do You Wanna Bump?" in 1975, under the name Boney M. He performed the sparse vocals of the song himself. The song went on to become a hit and it was then that Farian decided to hire a team of dancers and vocalists to 'front' the group.

Never Change Lovers In The Middle Of The Night Lyrics

Boney M.

You and I were finished
I was through with you
Splitting up forever
Seemed the thing to do
I said I cant stand you
With your honey touch
This time you were cheating me
One time too much
Just then I remembered
That a friend I knew
Told me one thing
I should never do
Never never change your lovers in the middle of the night
Everything may look so different in the early morning light
Never never be too hasty when youre grooping in the dark
What youre getting into may be just a lark
Keep your cool and dont change lovers when youre feeling sorta high
Sorta big and high and mighty without really knowing why
Let the heat wear off a little, give your man another chance
And dont fall for someone elses song and dance
Sure there was this guy
Right next to me
Mine just for the asking
He said he would be
But to leave my man
Seemed to me all too strange
And Id say that Im glad
I didnt make the change
Now our life is almost
Like a paradise
Let me pass on to you
This advice
Keep your cool and dont change lovers in the middle of the night
You may feel a strong temptation, the vibrations may be right
But who knows whats gonna happen, you may simply lose your cool
When you find it, youll find out you were a fool
Never never change your lovers under any midnight spell
Take it easy, slow and easy, everything will turn out well
Let the sunshine of a new day, and dont move while youre uptight
Changing lovers in the middle of the night
Never never change your lovers in the middle of the night
Everything may look so different in the early morning light
Never never be too hasty when youre grooping in the dark
What youre getting into may be just a lark
Keep your cool and dont change lovers when youre feeling sorta high
Sorta big and high and mighty without really knowing why
Let the heat wear off a little, give your man another chance
And dont fall for someone elses song and dance
