Testify Lyrics


The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I'm empty please fill me
Mister anchor assure me
That Baghdad is burning
Your voice it is so soothing
That cunning mantra of killing
I need you my witness
To dress this up so bloodless
To numb me and purge me now
Of thoughts of blaming you
Yes the car is our wheelchair
My witness your coughing
Oily silence mocks the legless
Ones who travel now in coffins
On the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside our door
Now Testify

Now testify
It's right outside our door
Now testify
Yes testify
It's right outside our door

With precision you feed me
My witness I'm hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on
My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball is rushing
Witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing
While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside your door
Now testify
Yeah testify
It's right outside our door
Now testify
Now testify
It's right outside our door

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set, and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set, and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set, and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set, and the price is set

Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify
Testify
It's right outside our door
Now testify
Testify
It's right outside our door

Testify
  • This song is about misrepresentation of world events by the US media. News anchors relay lies into the homes of Americans because that's all the Americans, being empty people whose only concerns are the media's showcase of glamour and gossip, can handle. The only way for people to survive is through the opiates that they partake of every day in the form of celebrities and media. It uses the party slogan for the Oceania government in the book 1984: "Who controls the past, controls the future. Who controls the present, controls the past."
  • Some lyrical analysis:
    "We found your weakness and it's right outside your door, now testify" - In the first part, Zack is trying to be coy about saying what he thinks the government's weakness really is. So think about it this way, what's right outside your door? The world and all the people in it. And if all those people would come together, what powerful tool of revolution we would be?
    "Mass graves for the pump and the price is set" - For the mass graves part, Zack is referring to oil. In the middle eastern countries, the battle is for oil, and how that's the real cause for America's involvement over there. We want our oil supply safe, so we try to be a mediator and police officer for those countries. Mass graves? People in war die. That's what it's all about - so basically, there's all this fighting that we participate in to secure oil. You "pump" gas, and the price constantly goes up and down with middle eastern crises.
    "Who controls the past now controls the future
    Who controls the present now controls the past
    Who controls the past now controls the future
    Who controls the present now?" - In the last part, Zack is saying that whoever is in charge now, is still, has been, and always will be, in charge. Then he asks who's controlling everything now. Almost asking if we really want it this way, or if we're going to do something to change it.

    So Far... Lyrics


    I own a mansion, but live in a house
    A king-size bed, but I sleep on the couch
    I'm Mr.Brightside, glass is half full
    But my tank is half empty, gasket just blew

    This always happens, thirty minutes from home
    Gotta lay a log cabin and only option I have is McDonald's bathroom
    In a public stall dropping a football
    So every time someone walks in the john I get Madden
    ''Shady, what up?''- What? Come on, man, I'm crapping
    And you're asking me for my got damn autograph on a napkin?
    Oh, that's odd, I just happened to run out of tissue
    Yeah, hand me that, on second thought I'd be glad then
    ''Thanks, dawg, name's Todd, a big fan''
    I wiped my ass with it, crumbled it up in a wad and threw it back and
    Told him ''Todd, you're the shit'' when does all of this crap end?
    Can't park my ass without causing an accident
    Puff my gas, cut my grass, can't take out the fucking trash
    Without someone passing through my sub harassing
    I'd count my blessings, but I suck at math
    I'd rather wallow then bass suffering from succotash
    But the antacid is my stomach gas
    I mix my corn with my fucking mash
    Potato, so what, ho, kiss my country bumpkin ass
    Missouri Southern roots, what the fuck is upperclass
    Call lunch dinner, call dinner supper
    Tupperware in a covered plastic wear up the ass
    Stuck in the past, iPod, what the fuck is that?
    B-boy to the core, mule, I'm a stubborn ass

    Maybe that's why I feel so strange
    Got it all, but I still won't change
    Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
    It's the motivation that keeps me going
    This is the inspiration I need
    I can never turn my back on a city that made me
    (Life's been good to me so far)

    They call me classless, I heard that, I second and third that
    Don't know what the fuck I would doing if it weren't rap
    Probably be a giant turd-sack
    But I blew, never turned back
    Turned forty and still sag
    Teenagers act more fucking mature, Jack
    Fuck you gonna say to me?
    I leave on my own terms, asshole, I'm going berzerk
    My nerves are bad, but I love the perks my work has
    I get to meet famous people, look at her, dag
    Her nylons ran, her skirt snag
    And I heard she drag-races, *burp* swag
    Fucking my Hanes shirt tag
    You're Danica Patrick (yeah) work, skag
    We'd be the perfect match
    'Cause you're a vacuum, I'm a dirtbag
    My apologies, no disrespect to technology
    But what the heck is all of these buttons?
    You expect me to sit here and learn that?
    Fuck I gotta do to hear this new song from Luda?
    Be an expert at computers?
    I'd rather be an encyclopedia Britannica, hell with a Playstation
    I'm still on my first manual from Zelda
    Nintendo, bitch, run, jump, punch, stab and I melt the
    Mozzarella on my spaghetti, put in on bread
    Make a sandwich with welch's and belch
    They say this spray butter is bad for my health, but
    I think there's more white trash from the trailer
    Jed Clampett, Redd Sanford welfare mentality helps to
    Keep me grounded, that's why I never take full advantage of wealth, I
    Managed to dwell within these parameters
    Still cramming the shelves full of hamburger helper
    I can't even help it, this is the hand I was dealt to
    Creature of habit, feel like I'm trapped in an animal shelter
    With all these pet peeves
    God dammit to hell, I can't stand all these kids with their camera cellphones
    I can't go anywhere, I get so mad I can yell, the
    Other day someone got little elaborate and stuck a fucking dead cat in my mailbox
    Went to Burger King, they spit on my onion rings
    I think my karma is catching up with me

    Maybe that's why I feel so strange
    Got it all, but I still won't change
    Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
    It's the motivation that keeps me going
    This is the inspiration I need
    I can never turn my back on a city that made me
    (Life's been good to me so far)

    Got friends on Facebook, all over the world
    Not sure what that means, they tell me it's good
    So I'm artist of the decade, I even got a plaque
    I'd hang it up, but the frame is all cracked

    I'm trying to be lowkey, hopefully nobody notices me
    In produce hunched over, giant nosebleed
    Over stop as I mosey over to the frozen aisle
    By the frozen yogurt this guy approached me
    Embarrassed, I just did Comerica with Hova
    Show's over, I'm hiding in Kroeger buying groceries
    He just had front row seats, told me to sign this poster
    Then insults me "wow, up close didn't know you had crow's feet"
    I'm at a crossroad lost till shopping at Costco
    Sloppy Joe's, buck waffles
    Got caught picking my nose, ah
    Look over see these two hot hoes
    Finger still up in one of my nostrils
    Right next to 'em stuck at the light
    This fucking shit is taking forever to change
    I'm stuck, these bitches are loving it rubbing it in
    Chuckling, couldn't do nothing, play it off
    ''What you bumping? Trunk Muzik? Yelawolf's better'', fucking bitch
    They want me to flip at the label, but I won't succumb to it
    The pressure, they want me to follow up with another one after Recovery
    Was so highly coveted, but what good is a fucking recovery if I fumble it?
    'Cause I'mma drop the ball if I don't get a grip
    Hopping on shrubbery on you sons of bitches
    Wrong subdivison to fuck with, bitch
    Quit snapping fucking pictures of my kids
    I love my city, but you push me to my limit, what a pity
    The shit I complain about
    It's like there ain't a cloud in the sky and it's raining out
    Kool Aid stain on the couch, I'd never get it out
    Bitch, I got an elevator in my house
    Ants and a mouse, I'm living the dream

    Maybe that's why I feel so strange
    Got it all, but I still won't change
    Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
    It's the motivation that keeps me going
    This is the inspiration I need
    I can never turn my back on a city that made me
    (Life's been good to me so far)

    So Far...
  • This song finds Eminem talking about his lack of technical knowledge as he sounds off about how many buttons there are on a PlayStation controller and how complicated it is to download a Ludacris song. "What the f--k I got to do to hear this new song from Luda? Be an expert at computers?" he complains. Slim also questions why he is so bad with Facebook ("Got friends on Facebook, all over the world. Not sure what that means, they tell me it's good").

    Speaking during a Q&A session at SiriusXM's Town Hall, Eminem said his anger would probably get the best of him if he ended up getting into an argument on social media, which is why he tends to stay away from it. "I would get into the worst arguments like 'Drive to my house now!'" he explained.
  • The Rick Rubin produced song features southern Blues-Rock instrumentation and samples Joe Walsh's 1978 solo hit, "Life's Been Good." Speaking with BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, Eminem said that he wanted the legendary producer to create sounds for TMMLP2 that were "subliminally nostalgic." He added: "Not blatant.. so that it kind of reminded you of 13 years ago when you first heard me but it's over beats that are older. To create a feel. We started messing with old beats and samples. Rick is talented in every different of genre in music. I was hoping to get what I got from him."
  • The lyric, "Went to Burger King, they spit on my onion rings. I think my karma is catching up with me" is a reworking of a classic line from "The Real Slim Shady" ("And every single person is a Slim Shady lurking. He could be working at Burger King, spitting on your onion rings").
  • The song finds Eminem referencing Detroit's troubles and how he feels that no matter what happens to the Motor City, he has its back. Speaking to BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, the MC spoke of his love for his hometown. "I feel like we've always been the underdog… I've kept that with me. That fighting spirit that Detroit has," he shared. "Because Detroit is so resilient. I feel like people there have this Detroit versus everybody mentality, because the way people look at us, they always count us out. I know that attitude is displayed a lot in my music, but I think that is where it comes from."

    It's A Shame Lyrics


    It's A Shame, the way you mess around with your man
    It's a shame the way you hurt me
    It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man
    I'm sitting all alone, by my telephone
    Waiting for your call, when you don't call at all

    It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man
    It's a shame (shame) the way you play with my emotions
    It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man
    You're like a child at play, on a sunny day
    But you play with love, and then you throw it away

    (Why do you use me, try to confuse me
    How can you stand, to be so cruel
    Why don't you free me, from this prison
    Where I serve my time as your fool)

    It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man
    It's a shame (shame) the way you hurt me
    It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man
    I try to stay with you, show you love so true
    But you won't appreciate, the love we try to make

    Oh, it's got to be a shame

    Why do you use me, try to confuse me
    How can you stand, to be so cruel
    Why don't you free me, from this prison
    Where I serve my time as your fool

    Got to be a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man
    Oh, it's a shame (shame) the way you hurt me
    It's a shame (shame) babe babe, the way you mess with your man
    You've got my heart in chains, and I must complain
    And I just can't be confined, oh look my ooh my

    So gotta be a shame
    The way it hurt me eh eh

    It's A Shame
  • Written by Stevie Wonder, this is about a breakup he had with his girlfriend at the time, Syreeta Wright. Wonder wrote the song with Lee Garrett, a songwriter who also co-wrote Wonder's hit "Signed, Sealed, Delivered."
  • G.C. Cameron had joined the band as lead singer at the time of this song's initial release. In 1972, The Spinners switched record labels and moved from Motown to Atlantic. Cameron stayed with Motown as a solo artist, and was replaced in The Spinners by Philippé Wynne, who sang lead on most of the group's hits in the '70s.
  • Jazz guitarist Paul Jackson Jr. made a smooth Jazz version of this song for his album Still Small Voice. Paul's version was also featured on the compilation album Blue Note Plays Stevie Wonder, a series of covers that was a tribute to Wonder.
  • In 1990, British-born singer and rapper Simone Wilson, the artist better known as Monie Love, sampled this as part of "It's a Shame (My Sister)," a song that also talks about the emotions of a breakup after the accusations of an alleged love affair.
  • Lethal Bizzle, a former member of More Fire Crew, sampled this on his 2005 song "Fire."
  • The Jamaican Rock Steady singer Alton Ellis recorded a version of this song that appears on his album Darker than Blue: Soul from Jamdown.

    Bad Day Lyrics


    Bad Day
  • This moody downbeat tune finds a heartbroken Justin experiencing an emotionally trying day after his girl walks out on him, leaving the Canadian stewing in regret. He croons:

    "Never thought a love like yours could leave me all alone
    Didn't waste any time
    Like you had already made up your mind
    No sympathy
    'Cause I was out of line."
  • The song was released as the fifth promotional single from Justin's #MusicMondays series, a 10-week drive in which he unveiled a new tune every Sunday at midnight. The singer made a small timezone error, when he tweeted his fans from Brazil, where he was playing a concert, to go pick up his tune. Though it was after midnight where he was, it wasn't back in North America where the beliebers were freaking out because they couldn't buy the track. Once his manager, Scooter Braun corrected him, Justin posted an apology asking them to forgive his mistake.
  • The song interpolates The Isley Brothers' 1977 tune "Footsteps In The Dark," whose instrumentation was famously sampled on Ice Cube's 1993 hit "It Was a Good Day."
  • Justin had a good day in Denmark when this song topped the country's single charts. It was his fourth song from his #MusicMondays series to reach #1 there, following "Heartbreaker," "All That Matters" and "Hold Tight."

    March!!!

    Love is a way of feeling, oh
    Love is a way of feeling less alone
    So what's all the fuss about?!?

    Fuck it!

    Love; the paradox of needing
    Oh love,
    Make way for breeding

    Give it to me! give it to me!
    Fuck you and your talk of love!

    I know what I stand for;
    I stand for me!!!

    I'll wait for the night to come
    So far, suicide at home
    For I'm not the man you know
    This love is about control!

    Oh what a feeling!!!!!
    Oh what a feeding!!!!!
    Know the chosen ones are here!
    All hail!!!

    Shit, fucker!

    I'll wait for the night to come
    So far, suicide at home
    For I'm not the man you know
    This love,
    It's about control!

    You fuckers!

    Love?
  • Strapping Young Lad is the band that Canadian metalman Devin Townsend formed after leaving Steve Vai 's group, VAI. A track from their fourth album, Townsend told us the story behind "Love?" in our 2013 interview:

    I was terrified of having kids at that point, and I wanted to make a statement. Speaking of being high, I was messed up for that record. So I think there was a part of me that was just so afraid of committing to anything that put me in a position of having to confront parts of my nature that I was uncomfortable with, that my initial reaction to anything like that was just hostility. So "Love?" was meant as an ironic examination of what it meant to be responsible.

    The Kick Inside Lyrics


    I've pulled down my lace and the chintz.
    Oh, do you know you have the face of a genius?
    I'll send your love to Zeus.
    Oh, by the time you read this,
    I'll be well in touch.

    I'm giving it all in a moment or two.
    I'm giving it all in a moment, for you.
    I'm giving it all, giving it, giving it.
    This kicking here inside
    Makes me leave you behind.
    No more under the quilt
    To keep you warm.
    Your sister I was born.
    You must lose me like an arrow,
    Shot into the killer storm.

    You and me on the bobbing knee.
    Didn't we cry at that old mythology he'd read!
    I will come home again, but not until
    The sun and the moon meet on yon hill.

    I'm giving it all in a moment or two.
    I'm giving it all in a moment, for you.
    I'm giving it all, giving it, giving it.
    This kicking here inside
    Makes me leave you behind.
    No more under the quilt
    To keep you warm.
    Your sister I was born.
    You must lose me like an arrow,
    Shot into the killer storm.

    The Kick Inside
  • This is about a brother and sister who fall desperately in love with each other. When she becomes pregnant by her own brother, she commits suicide. The song itself is the suicide note. She does not want her brother to be hurt or her family to go through the unspeakable shame of incest. The note (or song) is telling her brother not to feel responsible for her death: "I'm giving it all in a moment or two, giving it all in a moment for you. This kicking here inside, makes me leave you behind. No more under the quilt to keep you warm. Your sister I was born, you must lose me like an arrow shot into the killer storm."
  • This song was inspired by an old traditional English-Scottish song titled "Lucy Wan."
  • Some were surprised at the 19-year-old, convent-schooled Kate Bush writing a song with the controversial topic of brother-sister incest. She told Q magazine's Phil Sutcliffe that keeping constant faith with the characters that she'd created was important, and she didn't judge them.

    People keep asking about this glow I have
    'Cause I'm just not the same
    They say I'm walking different, talking different
    Looks like all of me has changed

    Magic is in my eyes, I can no longer hide

    When they look at me
    What they fail to see
    Is the love you got me feeling
    Like I'm dancing on the ceiling
    I can hardly breathe
    'Cause you're all I need
    So when they ask me why I'm smiling like a fool
    I Blame You
    Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

    My mind is frozen, got me open of you love
    Can't think of no one else
    I smell the roses, doing poses in the mirror
    You make me love myself

    Magic is in my eyes, I can no longer hide

    When they look at me
    What they fail to see
    Is the love you got me feeling
    Like I'm dancing on the ceiling
    I can hardly breathe
    'Cause you're all I need
    So when they ask me why I'm smiling like a fool
    I blame you
    Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

    I blame you, oh yeah
    Oh, baby, I blame you

    I blame you each and every day
    It's your fault that I'm completely blown away
    You've been building castles in the sky
    A place for only you and I
    I, I, I

    I blame you
    Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah
    I blame you
    Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

    When they look at me
    What they fail to see

    I Blame You
  • This carefree song about new love was released as the lead single from Ledisi's seventh album, The Truth. It was performed by Ledisi for the first time on BET's annual Black Girls Rock! special on November 3, 2013.
  • Ledisi wrote and produced the song with Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony, the same team that was behind her debut US Top 20 R&B hit "Pieces of Me."
  • In the song's music video Ledisi transforms from a self-conscious introvert into a sexy, confident lady. "The video is me, mentally and physically," she told The Boombox . "I can be shy and nerdy, and I can also be what you see later in the video. But I am only that way in private, not in public."

    Me and you could be our curse
    We've got bleeding hearts and flowers
    You got strings but you got no purse

    We're just Freaks In Love
    Saints above
    Shine on our sweet life
    Happy is the union
    Of fools and freaks alike

    And fearless are the idiots
    Among the hawks and doves
    We're on the outside looking in
    A couple of freaks in love

    There's a wonder in this weakness
    It's so beautiful sometimes
    Across the universe we're lightning
    In the race we're a step behind

    Me and you we're not for everyone
    Me and you we're damaged goods
    We're antique and unacceptable
    And just misunderstood

    We're just freaks in love
    Saints above
    Shine on our sweet life
    Happy is the union
    Of fools and freaks alike

    And fearless are the idiots
    Among the hawks and doves
    We're on the outside looking in
    A couple of freaks in love

    We're just freaks in love
    Saints above
    Shine on our sweet life
    Happy is the union
    Of fools and freaks alike

    And fearless are the idiots
    Among the hawks and doves
    We're on the outside looking in
    A couple of freaks in love

    We're on the outside looking in
    A couple of freaks in love

    Freaks In Love
  • Elton wrote this about a guy who walks his half-breed dog past his condo in Atlanta (on Peachtree Road). Frequently when the man walks his dog he fails to even tie his shoes, and on winter days he can be seen wiping his nose on the sleeve of his coat. They are both freaks in love though.

    Hand On Heart Lyrics


    Come on come on,
    I'm right, I'm wrong and when I'm wrong I say.
    We always had the good and bad
    And that will never change.
    This is the closest, I've ever been
    Oh yeah.

    The give, the take,
    The mend, the break,
    And so the cycle goes,
    We're doing well, we've been through hell,
    And only heaven knows,
    How far we get too,
    Thank god I met you ooh,
    And if you don't know.

    Just put your hand on my heart,
    Put your hand on my heart,
    And I don't have to say yeah,
    And I don't have to think yeah,
    Just put your hand on my heart
    Just put your hand on my heart.
    You know.

    Come on come on
    'cause you're the one that I want for myself
    The strength you give I wanna live,
    Inside our little shell.
    Nothing comes close too,
    Nothings supposed too yeah.

    You have your doubts the same way I do,
    When you're out safe in my love that's the truth.

    Just put your hand on my heart,
    Put your hand on my heart,
    And I don't have to say yeah,
    And I don't have to think yeah,
    Just put your hand on my heart
    Just put your hand on my heart.
    You know.

    When you don't feel that you're strong enough to make it,
    When life treats you hard and don't think you can take it,
    When you don't the way you stand you're close to breaking,
    Just put your hand on my heart,
    Put your hand on my heart

    Just put your hand on my heart,
    Put your hand on my heart,
    And I don't have to say yeah,
    And I don't have to think yeah,
    Just put your hand on my heart
    Just put your hand on my heart.
    You know.

    Just put your hand on my heart,
    Put your hand on my heart,
    And I don't have to say yeah,
    And I don't have to think yeah,
    Just put your hand on my heart
    Just put your hand on my heart.
    You know.

    Hand On Heart
  • This was the third Olly Murs single following "Heart On My Sleeve" and "Heart Skips a Beat" to feature the blood-circulating organ in its title. It was released as the lead single from the singer's special re-issue of his third studio album Right Place Right Time.
  • Olly penned the song in collaboration with Tom Barnes, Wayne Hector, Iain James, Pete Kelleher and Ben Kohn. During his RPRT Listening Party on UStream, he said this was the last song he wrote in the studio, he loves the melodies and it's his favorite song on the record.
  • The video is an almost a shot-for-shot remake of Robbie Williams' 1997 clip for "Angels." The black-and-white promo was directed by Vaughan Arnell - who also shot the original Angels visual. Murs is seen in the same locations as the original video and Williams - who was joined by Murs on his Take The Crown tour - makes a cameo appearance. Speaking of the vid, Robbie stated: "Imitation is the highest form of flattery. I am easily flattered, and I love Olly. We always have a good time together and this was no exception."
  • When Murs arrived at the session, the songwriters already had this song half-written, and they played it to him. The six of them then quickly completed the tune.
  • Murs recorded a new version of the tune for its single release. He told Glamour magazine: "We wanted to change the intro to the song and add more strings and backing vocals."

    Enid Lyrics


    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.

    It took me a year to believe it was over,
    And it took me two more to get over the loss.
    I took a beating when you wrote me those letters,
    And every time I remembered the taste of your lip gloss.

    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Maybe we always saw right through each other anyway,
    But Enid we never really knew each other anyway.

    There were times when I wanted to hurt you,
    And there were times when I know that I did.
    There were times when I thought I would kill you,
    But can you blame me I was only a kid.

    Tell me why we never respected each other.
    And tell me why I never believed that you were a person too.
    I always thought that you fancied my brother.
    I may not have liked it, oh but memory is a strange thing, oh, and Enid?
    Enid I remember you.

    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Maybe we always saw right through each other anyway,
    But Enid we never really knew each other anyway.

    It took me a year to believe it was over,
    And it took me two more to get over the loss.
    I took a beating when I wrote you those letters,
    And every time you told me to get lost.

    Now it's not fair to say that it's
    Cause I was three inches shorter then,
    And it's not fair to say that it's 'cause
    I was only fifteen years old.
    But maybe it's fair to say it was a lack of communication,
    I took a phone message, oh and speaking of communication,
    Oh, and Enid,
    Enid you got a cold.

    I can get a job I can pay the phone bills
    I can cut the lawn, cut my hair, cut out my cholesterol
    I can work overtime I can work in a mine
    I can do it all for you,
    But I don't want to.

    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway.
    Maybe we always saw right through each other anyway,
    But Enid we really never knew each other anyway

    I can teach you how to dance, how to sing, how to knit,
    How to make things that you never ever made before
    Enid, I can teach you how to use cookie cutters
    To make crazy things out of Play-Doh.

    Little houses, little farms, little accessories for your mom,
    For your Barbie set, for your friends and your family
    Enid, I can teach you how to snowmobile, cross-country ski, snowshoe,
    But I don't want to!

    Enid we never really knew each other anyway
    Enid we never really knew each other anyway
    Maybe we always saw right through each other anyway
    But Enid we really never knew each other anyway

    I took you dancing, paid for your night school.

    Enid
  • The band got the title when they were eating in a diner. They found it amusing that they were being served by a waitress named Enid, which is "dine" backwards.
  • A track from the band's first album, "Enid" was written by Steven Page and Ed Robertson , with Page singing lead. The song is about a guy who is desperately trying to get back together with Enid, his ex-girlfriend. We learn that he was 15 when they split, and now it's a few years later and he's still nowhere near over her. Typical of Barenaked ladies, there is plenty of humor in the song, as this guy's passion is tempered with laziness. He thinks of all the things he can do to get her back (cut his hair, work overtime), but decides it's too much work ("I can do it all for you, but I don't want to).
  • This is one of the few Barenaked Ladies songs with a horn section, which is credited as "The Jimmy Crack Horns" (they made up goofy names for outside musicians who performed on their tracks). When the band performed the song live, they would sing the horn parts.
  • An Ontario musician named Lewis Melville played the pedal steel guitar on this track. Melville also appears on recordings by another Canadian band, the Rheostatics.

    And my heads buzzin' baby feeling like I'm falling in love

    Did it come from the hills in the back of a truck

    And my heads buzzin' baby feeling like I'm falling in love

    Never tasted something so sweet, never tasted something so strong
    And my heads buzzin' baby feeling like I'm falling in love
    Hey girl ghatcha got in that cup

    Whatcha Got in That Cup
  • Thomas Rhett opens his It Goes Like This album with this fast-paced bluesy tune. Rhett explained to Radio.com that he wanted to grab listeners right away. "'Whatcha Got In That Cup' is a very, very rocking song. That opening lick immediately lets you know what you're in for on the record," he said. "Off the bat you're like, 'OK, this is definitely different.' Your brain is open to more things and once you listen to the entire record you're ready for every song that comes your way."
