Physical Lyrics

I'm sayin' all the things that I know you'll like
Making good conversation I gotta handle you just right, you know what I mean
I took you to an intimate restaurant, then to a suggestive movie
There's nothing left to talk about 'less it's horizontally

Let's get Physical, physical, I wanna get physical, let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk
Let's get physical, physical, I wanna get physical, let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk

I've been patient, I've been good, try'n to keep my hands on the table
It's gettin' hard this holdin' back, you know what I mean
I'm sure you'll understand my point of view, we know each other mentally
You've gotta know that you're bringin' out the animal in me

Let's get physical, physical, I wanna get physical, let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk
Let's get physical, physical, I wanna get physical, let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk

Oh let's get physical, physical, I wanna get physical, let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk
Let's get animal, animal, I wanna get animal, let's get into animal
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk, let me hear your body talk
Let me hear your body talk, let me hear your body talk

Physical Song Chart

You know how at the end of the movie Grease Olivia Newton-John transforms from a chaste good girl into a leather-clad vixen? She was definitely in vixen mode for this song, which if you are at all paying attention to the lyrics, is blatantly about sex: "There's nothin' left to talk about unless it's horizontally."

Olivia's real life image was far more modest than what she portrays in this song, and she was concerned about how she would be perceived. Her managers talked her into recording it, as they knew they had a huge hit on their hands.

Songwriters Steve Kipner and Terry Shaddick came up with this song, which was originally titled "Let's Get Physical." Instead of writing about the emotions of love, they decided to write this about the physical side, which many listeners found very refreshing in a pop song. Other songs Kipner helped write include "Hard Habit To Break" by Chicago and "Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera.

The song was released about a month after MTV went on the air, so the video got a lot of spins on the new channel. In the clip, Newton-John is shown teasing fat men as they try to exercise in some kind of locker room/gym. The whole idea of the video as to distract from the fact that the song is about sex, and fat guys working out accomplished that goal.

Aerobics was just gaining popularity when the song came out, and the video jumped on the trend and included some scenes where Olivia leads a cardio routine the guys can't handle. Eventually, the fat guys are replaced by fit, muscular men who ignore Olivia and pair off, indicating that they are gay. Despite the lascivious themes, the video was a huge commercial and critical hit - it won the Grammy for Video of the Year.

This was a #1 hit in the US for an amazing 10 weeks. The only song to that point that stayed at #1 longer was Elvis Presley's "Hound Dog." In America, it was the best-selling single of the '80s.

For 9 of the 10 weeks that this song topped the charts, "Waiting For A Girl Like You" by Foreigner was the runner-up. When "Physical" did finally fall, it was replaced at #1 by "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" by Hall & Oates. The #2 song that week: "Waiting For A Girl Like You" for the 10th consecutive week.

A few radio stations in conservative communities (including Salt Lake City, Utah) refused to play this song because of its veiled sexual content. This just added to the song's popularity and didn't hurt Olivia's reputation as one of the least offensive women in music.

After this was released, Newton-John appeared on a US TV special called Olivia Newton-John: Let's Get Physical, which featured this and other songs from her album, along with little skits where we got to know her better. Olivia did a great job of using her acting talents to promote her music, and these TV specials got a huge audience in the days when there weren't a lot of viewing options.

The video was directed by Brian Grant, whose experience was mostly on British TV shows. It was his idea to make fun of the overtly sexual lyrics by setting the video in a gym, and the gay reveal at the end (long before "Call Me Maybe"), was also his idea. The choreographer on the shoot was Kenny Ortega, who had worked with Newton-John on the movie Xanadu.

A slow and sultry version was recorded by Kylie Minogue for the movie Moulin Rouge, but it was cut by director Baz Luhrmann. Minogue as the Green Fairy was to have performed this song in the movie. (thanks, Ross - Brisbane, Australia)

In 1999 remixed versions of the song, (titled "Physical '99: Single Edit," "Neutron Bomb Mix," "Mustard Deep Dub," & "Mustard Full Vocal") with different vocals and an added vocal bridge, were to be released in the UK, but the single was pulled at the last minute.

On her Fall 2002 "Heartstrings Tour," Olivia performed an unplugged/Bosa-Nova style version of this that was a true crowd pleaser. Due to popular demand by her fans, Olivia recorded this version of the song and included it as an unlisted "bonus" track on her Australian duets album (Nov 2002) called 2. (thanks, James - Minneapolis, MN, for above 2)

This was used in a Tropicana Light advertisement that featured oranges exercising. (thanks, Tiffany - Dover, FL)

In a survey by Billboard magazine based on each song's performance on the Hot 100 chart, this was named the #1 Sexiest Song Of All Time. The runner-up was Rod Stewart's "Tonight's The Night," followed by Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love To You" in third place.

Volcano Lyrics

The world is spinning fast tonight
You can hurt yourself tryin’ to hold on
To what you used to be
I’m so glad the past is all gone

Been out in the wild
Been out in the night
Been out of your mind
Do you live here or is this a vacation

Volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know
Volcano
Something in you wants to blow
Volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know

Your eyes were like landing lights
They used to be the clearest blue
Now you don’t see so well
The future’s gonna land on you

Been out in the wild
Been out in the night
Been out of your mind
Do you live here or is this a vacation

Volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know
Volcano
Something in you wants to blow
Volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know
You’re on a piece of ground above a volcano

You were alone
And now you’re not alone
You were alone
But you are rock n’ roll
You and I are rock n’ roll
But you are rock n’ roll
You and I are rock n’ roll

Oh, volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know
Volcano
Something in you wants to blow
Volcano
You don’t wanna, you don’t wanna know
You’re on a piece of ground above a volcano

Volcano Song Chart

Paul "Bono" Hewson's mother died when he was 14 after suffering a brain aneurysm at her own father's funeral. This driving tune finds a young, angry Bono wrestling with the death of his two close family members. "My mother died that year, so did my grandad," he writes in the album booklet. "After grief comes rage…the molten lava that turns to rock if it can... this kind of fire in the belly cannot sustain. If you're lucky, it burns out before it burns you out."

The song follows another track on Songs of Innocence about Bono's loss of his mother, "Iris (Hold Me Close)."

When The Observer asked Larry Mullen if he remembers the teenage Bono as the cannonball of fury and grief portrayed in this song Volcano, the U2 drummer instantly replied: "That's the guy I know now."

Surfin' U.S.A. Lyrics

If everybody had an ocean
Across the U.S.A.
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like California
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
Huarachi sandals too
A bushy bushy blond hairdo
Surfin' U.S.A.

You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
Ventura County line
Santa Cruz and Trestle
Australia's Narabine
All over Manhattan
And down Doheny Way

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

We'll all be planning that route
We're gonna take real soon
We're waxing down our surfboards
We can't wait for June
We'll all be gone for the summer
We're on surfari to stay
Tell the teacher we're surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

Haggerties and Swamies
Pacific Palisades
San Anofree and Sunset
Redondo Beach L.A.
All over La Jolla
At Waimia Bay

Everybody's gone surfin'

Surfin' U.S.A. Song Chart

The lyrics are basically a guide to good surf locations, but the "Surfin' U.S.A." music was based on Chuck Berry's 1958 hit "Sweet Little Sixteen." The Beach Boys did it as a tribute to Berry, but didn't get his permission first - maybe because Berry was in jail for transporting a minor across state lines. When Berry threatened to sue, The Beach Boys agreed to give him most of the royalties and list him as the song's composer. The song also helped build Berry's legend while he served his time.

David Marks, who was a guitarist in The Beach Boys from 1961-1963, explains on the DVD Brian Wilson Songwriter 1962 - 1969 , that he and Carl Wilson would play guitars every day after school, and one day Carl brought home the album Chuck Berry Is On Top. They loved the album and introduced Berry's sound to Brian Wilson, who loved the rhythm parts and put together "Surfin' U.S.A." based on that sound. Brian changed the lyrics and added a hook, but it is basically a rewrite of Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen."

Many of the early Beach Boys' songs were about surfing. Dennis Wilson was the only Beach Boy who actually surfed, but surfing was a very popular at the time, especially with teenagers who bought records. For The Beach Boys, the surfing subculture gave them an opportunity to write songs about adventure and fun while exploring vocal harmonies and new production techniques. And while the majority of Americans didn't surf, the songs represented California, which was considered new and modern and a great place to be. Surfing, and California by extension, became more about a state of mind.

This is a very early Beach Boys song, following up their first hit "Surfin' Safari." Brian Wilson was gaining confidence as a producer, and this song marks the emergence of what would become the Beach Boys signature sound over the next few years. Wilson got the most of 1963 studio technology, and managed to create a sound with bright guitars and sophisticated background vocals - something he accomplished with double-tracking. Brian also used his falsetto vocals in the chorus to offset Mike Love 's lead.

Carl Wilson came up with the guitar intro, which is reminiscent of Duane Eddy's "Moving and Grooving." Wilson explained: "On 'Surfin' U.S.A.,' Brian wanted an opening lick and I just did this Duane Eddy riff. I was worried that it had been on another record, but what the hell. That was the first time we were aware we could make a really powerful record. For the first time, we thought the group sounded good enough to be played with anything on the radio."

Leif Garrett, who was not a surfer, but a skateboarder, recorded this in 1977 and took it to #20 in the US. Garrett was a teen idol who acted in some popular movies in the '60s and '70s, including Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, but got hooked on drugs and fought a heroin addiction. In 2006, after one of his arrests for heroin possession, Garrett's mother told the New York Daily News that rock stars like The Rolling Stones were a bad influence on him and led him to drugs.

Guitarist David Marks played guitar on the Beach Boys first five albums. He recalled to ilikemusic.com laying down this track: "The energy on the Surfin' USA session was very upbeat and happy. That's where that chemistry thing kicks in again… there was a certain energy on that track that was a one-of-a-kind happening. It wasn't perfect in a technical sense, but the vibe was something special that had a lasting effect."

This was re-released in the US in 1974. It went to #36.

Comedic Canadian rock band Jason performed a spoof of this called "Bowlin' USA". The band's lead singer was Steve Smith, who later achieved fame and fortune playing his character Red Green on the cult Canadian comedy series The Red Green Show. (thanks, Brett - Edmonton, Canada)

Break The Cycle Lyrics

Circles and cycles and seasons
For everything there's always reason
But it's never good
Never turns out as it should
No one ever held you
No single moment of truth
But if you were mine
I would've looked into those eyes
And you said

Tell me the words
You long to hear
And I'll sing them loud and clear
Let me heal the wounds you've held on to for all these years
Break The Cycle
Break the chains
Cause love is louder than all your pain
Than all your pain

Is it all truly broken
You let a few mistakes
Let's take our time
Don't we have to try
Too many missing pieces
That's always been your reason to justify
How you feel alive
I wish you'd take

Tell me the words
You long to hear
And I'll sing them loud and clear
Let me heal the wounds you've held on to for all these years
Break the cycle
Break the chains
Love is louder than all your pain
Break the cycle
Break the chains
Love is louder than all your pain
Than all your pain

This is the second single by the folk music duo You+Me, who consist of Alecia Moore (better known as Pink) and Dallas Green, who has released a series solo albums under the City and Colour moniker. Moore wrote this song as a letter to her mother. "We were at the bar talking and I really wanted to write a song about my mom," she told The Huffington Post . "It didn't turn out to be quite the love song I thought it would be, but it's very honest and came out to be so much more."

"The words of the chorus is the loving, nurturing part," Green added. "I did not expect this song to turn out the way it did and it's so good."

This was the first US hit for Shaggy. "Oh Carolina" was popular in England two years earlier, but not in the US.

This uses a sample from "Baby Let Me Kiss You," a 1971 song by the New Orleans soul singer King Floyd.

A popular claymation commercial for Levi's jeans used this throughout the spot.

The album won a Grammy in 1996 for Best Reggae Album.

Multiply Lyrics

Multiply Song Chart

This hard-hitting anthem about living life to the trillest, finds Rocky dissing streetwear labels Been Trill and Hood by Air, which he has supported in the past ("S--t is weak, you can keep that") and announcing the return of A$AP Mob ("We don't ever die, we just multiply").

Rocky pays tribute to the late Pimp C of the Texas based rap group, UGK on the hook, ("Even in my will, keep it trill, to the day I peel"). It was the Southern rapper who coined the adjective "trill," a word describing someone who is considered to be well respected that Rocky frequently uses.

A$AP Rocky debuted the track during his set at Coachella on April 11, 2014.

The song features a guest appearance from Juicy J, who introduces the track and also raps the outro.

Directed by A$AP Rocky and his regular collaborator Shomi Patwary, the video shows the Harlem native and his A$AP Mob colleagues hitting the streets of New York City. Juicy J makes a brief cameo at the beginning of the clip.

Like A Prayer Lyrics

Like A Prayer Song Chart

This was the first song by a major artist to be used in a commercial before being released to stores or radio stations. With the cola wars heating up, Pepsi signed Madonna to a $5 million endorsement deal, which included a two-minute commercial that would debut this song. The spot, overseen by Pepsi's ad agency BBDO, was called "Make A Wish ," and showed Madonna watching an 8-year-old version of herself and doing some jubilant street dancing.

The commercial was promoted in a 30-second spot that aired during the Grammy Awards on February 22, 1989 (yes, a commercial for a commercial). Then on March 2, it aired on prime time television worldwide, including in America where it was seen on The Cosby Show. The Pepsi people claimed that 250 million viewers saw the ad, and that they were clearly the choice of the younger generation, as their partnerships with Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, and now Madonna, demonstrated. The commercial was clever and innocent, and the song was also a winner, clearly destined for #1 with such an auspicious debut.

The song was released the next day and instantly added to radio playlists around the world. It was also added on MTV, but instead of creating a video that was an extension of the commercial, Madonna hijacked it. Instead of an 8-year-old girl at a birthday party, we see Madonna witness a brutal crime and take refuge in a church. She shares an interracial kiss, gets stigmata on her hands, and dances in front of burning crosses. Predictably, religious groups were outraged, with the American Family Association and The Vatican condemning it. Pepsi, facing a boycott, dropped Madonna and never again aired the commercial.

Madonna and MTV were the big winners here. Those who thought she came off as a recalcitrant priss tended to be older, conservative folks who were far outside of her target audience, and the kind of authority figures her fanbase (the same ones Pepsi was going after) despised. In defying her corporate suitor, Madonna showed that her art was more important than their money. Pepsi got the song for a day, but MTV (always a Madonna stronghold), got the rest of the run and benefited from the controversy as viewers tuned in to see what the fuss was about.

Pepsi had two more commercials planned and was going to sponsor her Blonde Ambition tour, but they dropped all association with Madonna, who got to keep the $5 million.

Madonna wrote this with Patrick Leonard, who she teamed with for many of her hits in the late '80s. Madonna explained to Rolling Stone why her relationship with Leonard has proved to be so successful: "We're both from the Midwest, and deep down at our core, we're both geeks. He's melancholic, and he is a classically trained musician with an incredible sense of melody. We just hit it off from the start. We always come up with something interesting. We usually don't write frivolous songs, although we've done that, too. There's something magical about our writing."

The Andrae Crouch gospel choir sang on this, but they refused to appear in the video.

Worldwide, this is Madonna's most popular song. In the US, it debuted at #38 the week of March 18, 1989 and jumped to #1 five weeks later, making it the fastest trip to the top since Michael Jackson's "Bad " in 1987.

The song also became a chart-topper in several other countries.

This won the Viewer's Choice Award at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards.

The video was shot in California and directed by Mary Lambert, who had worked on videos for "Borderline," "Like A Virgin" and "Material Girl." The commercial was shot in Arizona and directed by Joe Pytka, who had previously worked with Pepsi on a Michael Jackson commercial.

Madonna had recently divorced actor Sean Penn when this was released. The cover of the single was drawn by her brother, Christopher, and contained the letters "MLVC", with a "P" falling away. They represented Madonna's initials, "Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone," with the "Penn" falling away.

The album was released in March 1989. It was eagerly anticipated by Madonna's fans, since her last album, the remix collection U Can Dance, came out in November 1987.

Madonna's original idea for the video was to have her and the black saint-figure shot in the back.

In 1990, this was remixed by Shep Pettibone and included on Madonna's first greatest hits compilation, The Immaculate Collection. At the time, dance remixes were usually just extended versions of a song, but Pettibone put in a completely revamped backing track, something that became popular in years to come, especially among Hip-Hop artists.

The actor in the video who played the black saint is Leon Robinson, who played Derice Bannock, the main character in the movie Cool Runnings. (thanks, Brandon - Peoria, IL)

This appears on the soundtrack of the 1999 Drew Barrymore movie Never Been Kissed.

Madonna and Pat Leonard originally envisioned this song with a Latin flair, complete with bongos and Latin percussion, but quickly scrapped the idea in favor of religious elements like a church organ and choir.

In an interview with Billboard magazine, Leonard remembers the first, somewhat off-the-cuff rehearsal with Andrae Crouch: "He gets the choir together and they sort of wing it. He knows what he's going to tell them... but I know he's making it up as he goes along. He's listened to it in his car and he's thought about what he's going to do. It's very inspired."

Madonna had the vision for this song's controversial video long before Pepsi released its cutesy dancing-in-the-streets version. She told Interview magazine: "Originally, when I recorded the song, I would play it over and over again, trying to get a visual sense of what sort of story or fantasy it evoked in me. I kept imagining this story about a girl who was madly in love with a black man, set in the South, with this forbidden interracial love affair. And the guy she's in love with sings in a choir. So she's obsessed with him and goes to church all the time. And then it turned into a bigger story, which was about racism and bigotry... Then Mary Lambert got involved as the director, and she came up with a story that incorporated more of the religious symbolism I originally wrote into the song."

Madonna credits ex-husband Sean Penn for helping her address personal issues and bring more of herself to her music: "He was extremely influential in encouraging me to reveal that side of myself," she told Interview magazine in 1989.

By 2016, any lingering hostility between Madonna and Pepsi was forgotten as her song "Express Yourself" featured in a commercial that aired during the Super Bowl . In the spot, Janelle Monáe dances through different scenes representing music through the generations and how Pepsi was a part of it.

I Forget Where We Were Lyrics

Oh hey,
I wasn't listening
I was watching serial
Blinded by the sunshine strip
You, you were in the kitchen
Oh your mind was marked and wounded with the wounders whip
And that's how summer passed oh your,
Great divide and range of green green grass
Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew

Hello love, my invincible friend
Hello love, the thistle and the burr
Hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I Forget Where We Were

Oh hey,
I wasn't listening,
I was stung by all of us
The blind leading up the wall
And as per usual,
You were skipping and laughing eyes at the bedroom door

Don't take it so seriously, no
Only time is ours
The rest we'll just wait and see
Maybe you're right, babe, maybe

Oh no, and that's how summer passed
Oh your, great divide
And range of green green grass
Oh, maybe I hold on fast, to you

Hello love, my invincible friend
Hello love, the thistle and the burr
Hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I forget where we were

I, I forget where we were
I forget where we were
I forget where we were,

Oh no, and that's how summer passed
Oh your, great divide
And range of green green grass
Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew

I Forget Where We Were Song Chart

This is the title track of Ben Howard's second album. The record was produced by Howard and his drummer Chris Bond at Start Point Farm Studios, Devon. Howard explained to DIY magazine the set's title was influenced by themes that arose in the wake of his first LP. "It's kind of about being aware of what is current and what is now after spending so much time in the music world," he said. "No-one really has a clue what's going on musically or anything like that really, and it's only with hindsight that you start to realize what has happened and what were the definitive moments in your life or in what's going on around you."

"That was one side of it, but the other was my complete lack of understanding for anything over the winter," Howard continued. "I struggled with a lot of stuff and just sort of lost my mind a little bit, so it felt like a fitting title and a kind of glimpse of madness."

At 04:41, this is one of the shorter songs on the disc. Speaking to XFM's Danielle Perry, Howard said that the decision to record longer songs for his sophomore release prompted a minor crisis of confidence. "I didn't think too much about it. Then there were times when I thought WAY too much about it. I was kind of supremely confident then racked with indecision for the whole the winter. The whole record's really skitty and undecided - it feels like I've kind of lost my brain a bit!"

"All the songs are really long, it might just get tiring for people!," he added. "I'll probably do a short pop record next time. But it seemed like the right thing to do."

The video co-stars illustrator Tatiana Kartomten and artist Danny Fox spending a day at a surreal beach. It finds Howard making his debut as a video director. He told The Sun: "I'm a perfectionist and when I have a vision or idea. It's hard to explain it to someone else. That's why I decided to make the video myself."

"I needed to match the visuals in my head to the music," Howard added. "I see images when I play and they form photographs in my mind."

Lucky Star Lyrics

Lucky Star Song Chart

Written by Madonna, this was her first single from her debut album. It went nowhere, but was successfully re-released six months later after "Holiday" became a hit.

The success the second time around was largely because of the video, which MTV put in hot rotation. It was commissioned by Jeff Ayeroff, who was an executive at Madonna's label, Warner Bros. Ayeroff said in the book I Want My MTV: "I made 'Lucky Star' for $14,000 with a friend who was a pot grower from Bolinas, California (Arthur Pierson). We'd released 'Everybody,' 'Burning Up,' 'Holiday' and 'Borderline' as singles. And Madonna didn't want to release 'Lucky Star.' Around the same time, she was getting sued and needed money. I said, 'Let me release 'Lucky Star,' and I guarantee you'll sell enough records to pay that off.' 'Lucky Star' broke the first album wide open."

This entered the charts as Madonna began work on her first movie, Desperately Seeking Susan. She went on to star in many others, including Dick Tracy, A League Of Their Own, Shanghai Surprise, Body Of Evidence, Dangerous Game, Swept Away, and Evita.

Guy Ritchie, Madonna's husband, used this in his 2001 movie, Snatch. It is featured in a scene where a tough-guy is roughing someone up while this plays on the radio.

The lyrics were based on a nursery rhyme: "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight..."

The video introduced Madonna's "Thrift Store" look. Sporting lots of big, colorful accessories, fans who became known as "Madonna-Wannabes" started dressing like her. This look became an icon of '80s culture.

The song was covered in the "Old Dog New Tricks" episode of Glee. Starring actor Chris Colfer, who penned the episode, explained to Billboard magazine: "When we do 'Lucky Star,' it's because Kurt has joined an assisted living home's production of Peter Pan. In the story, he convinces them to update the production. He convinces them to use modern music to tell the story. So when he's singing 'Lucky Star' he's singing about Neverland."

"The only thought I had was I wanted the music to fit. I didn't want anything to seem arbitrary. I wanted it to be there for a reason."

This song was featured in the 1988 drama Running On Empty in a scene where Danny (River Phoenix) is in music class and in the 1995 drama Safe, starring Julianne Moore and Xander Berkeley.

The song is referenced in Pulp Fiction (1994) when Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros) tells Butch (Bruce Willis): "I have a bit of a tummy, like Madonna when she did 'Lucky Star.'"

Madonna told Song Talk that she wrote this song on a synthesizer.

Martin Burgoyne, a close friend of Madonna's who lived with the singer before she was famous, designed the cover sleeve for the US release of this song (as well as "Burning Up"). After his death from AIDS at the age of 23, Madonna wrote the 1992 song "In This Life" as a tribute to him and many others she knew who died of the disease.

Outside Lyrics

Look at what you've done
Stand still, falling away from me
When it takes so long
Fire's out, what do you want to be?
I'm holding on
Myself was never enough for me
Gotta be so strong
There's a power in what you do
Now every other day I've been watching you

Oh oh, oh oh I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the Outside, oh oh
We did everything right
Now I'm on the outside, oh oh
I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the outside, oh oh
We did everything right
Now I'm on the outside

So you give me no reason
For me to stay close to you
Tell me what lovers do
How are we still breathing
It's never for us to choose
I'll be the strength in you

Now I'm holding on
Myself was never enough for me
Gotta be so strong
There's a power in what you do
Now every other day I've been watching you, oh oh oh oh

I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the outside, oh oh
We did everything right
Now I'm on the outside, oh oh
I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the outside, oh oh
We did everything right
Now I'm on the outside

I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the outside
I'll show you what it feels like

I'll show you what it feels like
Now I'm on the outside
We did everything right
Now I'm on the outside

It's The Little Things Lyrics

You can burn my house
You can cut my hair
You can make me wrestle naked
With a grizzly bear
You can poison my cat
Baby I don't care
But if you talk in the movies
I'll kill you right there

It's The Little Things
It's just the little things
Aw it's the little things
It's just the little things
Yeah it's the little things
That drive me wild

I'm like a mad dog
I'm on a short leash
I'm on a tight rope
Hanging by a thread
I'm on some thin ice
You push me too far
Welcome to my nightmare
No more Mr. Nice Guy

You can steal my car
And drive it into the lake
You can stick me in the oven
And put it on bake
You could throw a big brick
Through my window pane
But if I ever hear you ask me
How I got my name

It's the little things
It's just the little things
Aw it's the little things
It's just the little things
Yeah it's the little things
That drive me wild

I'm like a mad dog
I'm on a short leash
I'm on a tight rope
Hanging by a thread
I'm on some thin ice
You push me too far
Welcome to my nightmare
No more Mr. Nice Guy

I've done it all
I mean I been everywhere
I've been beaten
I been stabbed
I been hung
I been buried alive
And I can deal with that
But its the little things
I've done it all
I mean I been everywhere
I've been beaten
I been stabbed
I been hung
I been buried alive
And I can deal with that
'Cause its the little things

It's the little things
It's just the little things
Yeah it's the little things
Just the littl

It's The Little Things Song Chart

This is about Cooper's observations that little things are what drive people crazy. Things like looking for a parking spot or waiting on hold seem to cause more stress than bigger problems.

Cooper based this song on what he noticed about people after 30 years of touring.

Kids Lyrics

You try to talk, but I'm already gone
You want a sip, the drink's already done
My phone is off, I'm already on
All I want to do is dance
I keep moving, moving, these bitches are see-through
I think I've been steering and they're in the rearview
I'm in my car going back to the bay
Bad girls in a bad world, let me hear you say

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

Yeah, we always did it our way
Wanna celebrate and misbehave
Fuck around downtown and act like nothing
Wait around for everyone to say they love us
To kiss us and hug us, and come undone
The day is dead, the night is young
I get in my car and go back to the teek
Bad girls and the bad boy, let me hear you scream

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

Betcha, betcha wanna do it like this, this, this
You like it, like it when I do it like this, this, this
All I wanna do is
All I, all I wanna do is get down, get down, g-get down tonight
Get down, get down tonight
(All I wanna do, all I wanna do)
Get down, get down tonight

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

All I wanna do is get down tonight
I'm on that shit that I know you like
Don't judge me 'cause I'm about this life
Yeah, the kid's gonna be alright

Betcha wanna do it like this, this, this
You like it when I do it like this, this, this
All I wanna do is (this)
All I wanna do is (this)
All I wanna do is (this)
All I wanna do is (this)

Kids Song Chart

Dev told Artist Direct the story of the song: "I had the 'Kids' hook for two years and I had no idea what to do with it or how to record it or what verses to write. It is fun and nonchalant, but I sat on it for the longest time."

"My producer did a rough version of the beat, then I laid the hook and then wrote the verses in one day," she continued. "It came out great. And it is fun. But it took forever. I am back in my zone."
