STP Lyrics


All that I need, look at all the love we've found
I won't run and pull the one jack move
They love her for the Kingston sound, oh

Flava-Flave and I-C-E
Once said something that made me
Want to burn my liquor store down to the ground
But I just can't leave the pad, cuz I'll surely wind up dead
'Cuz I know there out there out there waiting and watching for me
Still I got my yellow cat and my wooden baseball bat
And my shiny silver gat and if my homey my back then I got

All that I need, look at all the love we've found, oh
I won't run and pull the one jack move
They love her for the Kingston sound, oh

I won't slip, and I won't trip, send Matt Vargas to regrip
While I'm wrenchin' on my ride, in that secret pad where we hide
There's always lotsa fun stuff to do
Like relax and design a brand new tattoo
Play with my cross-word puzzle book, I'm even learning how to cook

Have you seen that little whore Betty?
Someone said she stole my Freddie
And if she made off with my last clean ring
I'm gonna kill that fuckin' ditch pig
So what?
Outta my, outta my, outta my, outta my secret pad
'Cause I know your talkin' about me baby, makin' it hard to live
'Cause I, don't want no money dick, don't want no money down
My secret tweaker pad is now the hottest pale spot in town I guess
Take it nice and easy
Don't want no sheriff breakin' down the door to raid me, 'cause

All that I need, look at all the love we've found
I won't run and pull the one jack move
They love her for the Kingston sound

Baby you wanna give me kisses sweet
Only for one night with no repeat
Baby you wanna leave and never go
But the taste of honey is worse than none at all

    Boomerang Lyrics


    Sitting here thinking about
    All the innocent people I done hurt in my past
    Relationships, never felt the slightest bit bad
    Until it happened to me
    It's funny how we're so quick to laugh
    When it's someone else
    But then when it happens to us
    The joke is never as funny as we all thought it was
    Before we felt the same thing

    And it's true that it's no fun
    When the rabbits got the gun
    And you're in love with the one that hurts you most
    They say karma is a bitch
    And I say I agree with it
    Cause this whole experience has let me know

    That breaking a woman's heart is like throwing a Boomerang
    It will come right back to you again
    So remember that when it is happening to you
    Don't cry when it gets hard
    Because you threw a boomerang
    And it came right back to you again
    So remember that when it's happening to you

    Used to play a lotta games with no conscious
    Couple different lovers at once with no problem
    Loved the way it felt to have everyone wanting me
    Now I'm sitting here tryin to be strong but I'm hurting
    And the sad part of it all is I deserve this
    This was meant to teach me a lesson
    It's working perfectly

    Cause it's true that it's no fun
    When the rabbits got the gun
    And you're in love with the one that hurt you most
    And they say karma is a bitch
    And I say I agree with it
    Cause this whole experience has let me know

    That breaking a woman's heart is like throwing a boomerang
    It will come right back to you again
    So remember that when it is happening to you
    Don't cry when it gets hard
    Because you threw a boomerang
    And it came right back to you again
    So remember that when it's happening to you

    Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn
    And heaven won't help you hide if you break her heart
    Try ya best to be honest
    Try to keep every promise
    Cause in the end if it doesn't work out
    She won't wanna be friends
    And she gone want revenge

    Don't break a woman's heart, it's like throwing a boomerang
    It will come right back to you again
    So remember that when it is happening to you
    Don't cry when it gets hard
    Because you threw a boomerang
    And it came right back to you again
    So remember that when it's happening to you

    Go all the way, go all the way...
    Go all the way, go all the way...

  • Lyfe Jennings was sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison following a violent altercation with an ex-girlfriend in 2008. He penned this song whilst behind bars. The track finds him considering the ramifications of bad behavior when young.

    Bald Lyrics


    It would appear that male pattern
    Baldness has set in
    His hair, at an alarming pace
    Running away from his face
    He's losing his virility
    And now his masculinity
    Has been compromised
    And his libido down-sized

    Not for me, not for me, not for me, uh-uh
    Not for me, not for me, heaven forbid
    It's not for me you understand

    Bald, slap headed and hairless
    Bald he is destined to be
    Bald, well tonight thank God it's him instead of me.

    From what I have been reading
    His scalp needs kneading
    To stimulate each follicle
    And reverse this diabolical
    Condition that's afflicted he
    For years and has cruelly
    Repulsed each potential mate
    And left him with a balding pate

    Not for me, not for me, not for me, uh-uh
    Not for me, not for me, heaven forbid
    It's not for me you understand

    Bald, slap headed and hairless
    Bald he is destined to be
    Bald, well tonight thank God it's him instead of me.

    Sock it to me baby, yeah!

    Not for me, not for me, not for me, uh-uh
    Not for me, not for me, heaven forbid
    It's not for me you understand

    Not for me, not for me, not for me, uh-uh
    Not for me, not for me, heaven forbid
    It's not for me you understand

    Bald, slap headed and hairless
    Bald he is destined to be
    Bald, well tonight thank God it's him instead of me.
    Thank God!

    Bald, slap headed and hairless
    Bald he is destined to be
    Bald, well tonight thank God it's him instead of me.
    How?

  • The line, "Well tonight thank god it's him instead of me" is directed at Bono, the lead singer of U2. In the 1984, Band Aid song "Do They Know It's Christmas?," Bono sang the infamous line, "Well tonight thank god it's them instead of you." At the time One Way Ticket To Hell And Back was being recorded, lead singer Justin Hawkins and Bono quarreled after Bono gave Hawkins permission to sing his line in the remake of 'Do They Know It's Christmas" because Hawkins said Bono's voice was shaky after hearing him re-sing the line. Bono got upset and maintained that Hawkins stole the line from him and they have clashed ever since. Hawkins thought it would be funny to manipulate Bono's infamous line to deride him in song or possibly even write an entire song about his impending hair loss.

    Here we go

    Everybody wants me to be who they want me to be except you
    All I wanna do is be with you
    They all tell me that there’s something strange
    I don’t wanna be with nobody new
    All I wanna do is be with you

    Life sounds like
    I’m alive (x6)
    (This is what it sounds like)
    Whoa-oh-oh, I’m alive

    How come every day something jumps in the way
    Gets complicated, I feel devestated
    But when I’m feeling down, I only wanna be with you
    I can’t afford the rent or remember checks I sent
    To pay off all my taxes and feed the president
    But there’s one thing I remember, I only wanna be with you

    Life sounds like
    I’m alive (x6)
    (This is what it sounds like)
    Whoa-oh-oh, I’m alive

    (Break it down right here now)
    You be Bonnie, I’ll be your Clyde
    Hop into my car and drive like
    Fireworks, we will ignite
    Through the San Francisco night
    Like John and Yoko
    Like Ice-T and Coco
    Like Jay-Z, Beyonce
    Come be my fiance

    Hey soul sister, I’ll be your mister
    Don’t wanna be no one-night stand
    How many ways can I say to make you understand
    That I only wanna be your man

    Life sounds like
    Whoa-oh-oh
    This is what it sounds like
    Whoa-oh-oh
    And it sounds like

    I’m alive (x6)
    (This is what it sounds like)
    Whoa-oh-oh, I’m alive

    (Bring it back one more time)

    Everybody wants me to be who they want me to be except you
    All I wanna do is be with you

    Life sounds like
    Whoa-oh-oh
    (This is what it sounds like)
    Whoa-oh-oh
    Life sounds like, like, like…

    Life sounds like
    I’m alive (x6)
    (This is what it sounds like)
    Whoa-oh-oh, I’m alive

    I'm Alive (Life Sounds Like)
  • Ostensibly a love song about finding the one person in the world who just gets him, the tune also acts as a metaphor for the bigger issues that are going on in the world today. "This is the song that was really just an expression of gratitude for being alive and wanting to live every minute to the fullest," Franti said in our 2014 interview . "I guess I wanted to get the sound of what it means to be alive rather than the ideas of what it means to be alive. That's why right before the chorus it sounds like, 'Whooaaa,' and then just turns into a melody after that."
  • On the All People album, Franti worked extensively with outside songwriters for the first time. This song he wrote with the Australian songwriter/producer Adrian Newman, who worked with Franti on three other cuts as well: "Closer To You," "Say Goodbye" and "Long Ride Home."

    Hate To Feel Lyrics


    What's gone wrong, I can't see straight
    Been too long, so full of hate

    What the fuck will it take
    Drown myself in my wake
    Another shaggy D.A
    Now a dog, shake my leg
    Plastic man, paper face
    Candy heart, what a waste
    Got to change, set a date
    Eat my cake, lick my plate

    Stare at me with empty eyes
    And point your words at me
    Mirror on the wall will show you
    What you're scared to see

    I can see, yeah (wish I couldn't see at all)
    I can feel (wish I couldn't feel at all)
    Hate to see (wish I couldn't see at all)
    Hate To Feel (wish I couldn't feel at all)

    So climb walls
    Thin my blood now
    And I crawl, back to bed now

    What the hell, got to rest
    Aching pain in my chest
    Lucky me, now I'm set
    Little bug for a pet
    New Orleans, got to get
    Pin cushion medicine
    Used to be curious
    Now the shit's sustenance

    All this time I swore I'd never
    Be like my old man
    What the hey it's time to face
    Exactly what I am

    I can see, yeah (wish I couldn't see at all)
    I can feel (wish I couldn't feel at all)
    Hate to see (wish I couldn't see at all)
    Hate to feel (wish I couldn't feel at all)

    What the hell, got to rest
    Aching pain in my chest
    Lucky me, now I'm set

    Would you run away or would you run to me

    What would you do with that
    I asked a lot of that
    And if gave you all my time when its the summer time
    I know my down time, girl that's a lot of time
    If I'm falling over you, then what you gonna do

    Or would you hate on me
    If I ran all out of money
    Would you pay for me or would you stray from me
    I need to know it baby
    If there's something that I could do
    To make you see the light
    Girl that I treat you right
    I'd do it every night
    Every second that I'm with you is a special world
    Like I'm your only man, and you're my only girl

    I'd give you all my loving to you
    I'd give you all my loving to you

    Feel Good
  • This EDM-tinged track was co-written and produced by will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas. It finds Thicke interrogating his lover asking her if she'd still love him whatever he does:

    "If I partied till the morning would you stay with me
    Girl would you play with me, or would you hate on me
    If I ran all out of money, would you pay for me or would you stray from me
    I need to know it baby."

    Thicke told VH1: "I actually got to sneak in some of my problems on this one. It talks about if I party too much, or if I'm not perfect, or if I'm depressed, will you still stand by me, will you help me get through those times or will you leave me?"
  • In the Sophie Muller-directed video, Thicke, along with a group of dancers, performs this against a cloudy backdrop.

    Shannon Lyrics


    Shannon
  • "Shannon" was a song written about the passing of Beach Boy Carl Wilson's Irish Setter of the same name. The song went gold and became a worldwide hit. The second single, "Springtime Mama," sold just short of gold. This was Gross' first album and first hit on the new Lifesong Record label.
  • This song was a hit in the US in 1976, but is perhaps best known for being the subject of a legendary, profanity-laced tirade by American Top 40 radio show host Casey Kasem while recording an episode of the show in 1985. A listener had requested the song as a "Long Distance Dedication" (a regular feature of the AT40 show) to his own recently-deceased dog. Kasem was upset that the show's producers had placed the dedication immediately following the Pointer Sisters' hit "Dare Me," an up-tempo song that Kasem considered a poor lead-in to a sad song like "Shannon" - and he let the producers know of his displeasure in no uncertain terms. In the end, the dedication, and the mismatched songs, were presented as scripted in spite of Kasem's objection, but the outtake of his rant eventually surfaced as a bootleg recording. The so-called "Snuggles tape" (named for the dog to whom the dedication was made) contradicted Kasem's normally straight-laced, easygoing on-air persona, and provided an amusing footnote to his 18-year-long run as the show's original host.
  • The falsetto vocals on "Shannon" were written because Gross was a big fan of Beach Boy member Brian Wilson and was influenced by his singing style.

    Top Of The World
  • Thicke tells the rags-to-riches story on this song of a woman who despite achieving power and wealth is still lonely. He told VH1: "It's similar to 'Ain't No Hat 4 That,' about a professional woman who has been a little hardened. She's having a tough time finding the right man to love. That song is about being on top of the world, but needing that one more thing to be happy."

    Underneath It All Lyrics


    There's times where I want something more
    Someone more like me
    There's times when this dress rehearsal
    Seems incomplete
    But, you see the colors in me like no one else
    And behind your dark glasses you're
    You're something else

    You're really lovely
    Underneath It All
    You want to love me
    Underneath it all
    I'm really lucky
    Underneath it all
    You're really lovely

    You know some real bad tricks
    And you need some discipline
    But, lately you've been trying real hard
    And giving me your best
    And, you give me the most gorgeous sleep
    That I've ever had
    And when it's really bad
    I guess it's not that bad

    You're really lovely
    Underneath it all
    You want to love me
    Underneath it all
    I'm really lucky
    Underneath it all
    You're really lovely

    So many moons that we have seen
    Stumbling back next to me
    I've seen right through and underneath
    And you make me better
    I've seen right through and underneath
    And you make me better
    Better better

    You are my real Prince Charmin'
    Like the heat from the fire
    You were always burnin'
    And each time you're around
    My body keeps callin
    For your touch
    Your kisses and your sweet romancin'
    There's an underside to you
    that this here woman that adore
    Aside from your temper
    Everything is secure
    You're good for me, baby
    of that, I'm sure
    Over and over again
    I want more

    You've used up all your coupons
    And all you've got left is me
    And somehow I'm full of forgiveness
    I guess it's meant to be

    You're really lovely
    Underneath it all
    You want to love me
    Underneath it all
    I'm really lucky
    Underneath it all
    You're really lovely

    You're really lovely
    Underneath it all
    You want to love me
    Underneath it all
    I'm really lovely
    Underneath it all
    And you're really lovely

    Underneath It All
  • No Doubt lead singer Gwen Stefani wrote this with Dave Stewart of Eurythmics fame. They were introduced by Jimmy Iovine, who is good friends with Stewart and chairman of Interscope, which is No Doubt's label. The band came over to Stewart's apartment in London, and he and Gwen went to the kitchen with their acoustic guitars and completed the song in about 15 minutes. Stewart wrote of Stefani in The Dave Stewart Songbook : "She really has great melodic sensibility and uses her subconscious to express herself lyrically. She sings freeform stream-of-consciousness at first but there are always words that appear to be coming from an emotional place. She then quickly understands what she wants to say and it all falls into place. 'Underneath It All' was an example of this and I saw it happen in real time right there in my kitchen."
  • In our interview with Dave Stewart, he spoke about the difference between writing with his Eurythmics partner Annie Lennox, and writing with Stefani, who he had just met. Says Stewart: "Well, it's kind of weird. Because if I walk into a room to write with Gwen, Gwen comes with a lot of stuff attached to her, and I also come into a room with that. So the first 15 minutes usually is getting past that stuff. And then very quickly, and usually due to a certain courtship, you know like how a certain chord can change the temperature in a room? It evokes a certain emotion in me or in Gwen, and then it'll suddenly make us think about something that happened in her life, and something that she might want to talk about, something she might not want to talk about, but you can kind of hear what it is in the lyric and the melody. And soon, within an hour and a half it's as if you've known that person for years. And often, then, people start talking about all their private thoughts, and everything that's going on in their life usually comes rolling out."
  • In a 2002 interview in Rolling Stone, Stefani explained that her lyrics were inspired by her relationship with Gavin Rossdale of the band Bush, who she was madly in love with and later married. They spent some time in a part the previous day, and Stefani wrote in her journal: "You're lovely underneath it all."
  • Gwen Stefani and Dave Stewart hadn't met before the day they wrote this song, but they had a lot in common and bonded quickly. They both had intimate relationships with a band member who they broke up with, but continued working with: Stewart with Annie Lennox and Stefani with No Doubt bass player Tony Kanal. They share a love of Jamaican music, and are big fans of Sophie Muller, who has directed videos for Eurythmics and No Doubt.
  • This track features a rap by the Jamaican Dancehall deejay Lady Saw. In 2003 she became the first female deejay to win a Grammy when this won the Grammy for Best Performance by a Duo or Group with a Vocal.
  • Sophie Muller, who directed the video, wanted to show what Stefani was like "underneath it all." She explained to Music Video Wire : "She started off with tons of make-up and hair, kind of really over done like a stripper. As the video proceeds she loses her make up and at the end the make up and overdone look is gone. The idea was stripping back to being your simple self. We had to do it using visual metaphors. She was going to be talking her clothes off, but that made it too complicated. Instead we made it into sections where in each section she was less made up."

    Muller enlisted the directing collaborative Logan to create special effects, like the band riding bicycles in Jamaica as a nod to Lady Saw's influence.

    Fred Astaire Lyrics


    Well of course I miss you, baby
    I've been thinking lately
    That you don't need me anymore
    You'd be better with Fred Astaire
    He could take you anywhere
    If you ask him to

    And God knows
    That its a common misconception
    That I'm the only one for you
    And I could take you out for breakfast
    But he could take you 'round the world

    Fred Astaire's the man for you

    Well, he could buy you a diamond ring
    Or he could get you anything
    If you ask him to
    He probably know how to dance
    And he could fly you to France
    And you could do it all night long

    All Is Full Of Love Lyrics


    You'll be given love
    You'll be taken care of
    You'll be given love
    You have to trust it

    Maybe not from the sources
    You have poured yours
    Maybe not from the directions
    You are staring at

    Twist your head around
    It's all around you
    All Is Full Of Love
    All around you

    All is full of love
    You just ain't receiving
    All is full of love
    Your phone is off the hook
    All is full of love
    Your doors are all shut
    All is full of love!

    All is full of love, all is full of love
    All is full of love, all is full of love

    All Is Full Of Love
  • In a June 22, 2000 webchat on Björk.com, she explained how she came up with this song: "I guess waking up after having been in Spain for six months in the mountains with few people. It was kind of solitary. And it was April, and I had to walk in the morning, around the mountains. And spring just kicked in. It was definitely nature-inspired. On a more personal level. It's about when you have been too stubborn about giving love to one particular direction... you expect it back, like it's a bank or something. And kind of realizing that it's up to you what you give, but it's not up to you what you are given and where from."
  • The video was directed by Chris Cunningham, who drew on his adolescent obsession with robots to bring Björk's abstract vision to life. He is also directed the video for Madonna's "Frozen."
  • This was nominated for a Grammy and won several awards including Best Breakthrough Video and Special Effects at the 2000 MTV Video Awards.
  • Björk describing her songwriting technique in Q Magazine October 2007: "Sometimes the words will come out in one go. I went out for a walk in 1997 and 'All Is Full Of Love' came out at once."

    Come Together Lyrics


    You float into the room, a ruffled feather
    A hint of your perfume is a comely tether
    Give back my heart you stole
    Chased down the rabbit hole
    It's undebatable, we Come Together,
    We come together, we come together

    Baby could we spend a month here tonight?
    'Til we both are painted by morning light
    Whoever made you must've had a talent for high design!
    How in the world did you get to be so fine?

    I'd wait around with you for worse or better
    But our halcyon days are few, it's now or never
    The writing’s on the wall
    If I can't walk I will crawl
    You rise above them all, we come together.
    We come together, we come together

    Well I think that maybe I've seen too much
    You come around and dammit! I'm out of touch.
    Now I see you, and I need you on repeat, all the time
    How in the world did you get to be so fine?
    Baby could we spend a month here tonight?
    'Til we both are painted by morning light
    Whoever made you must’ve had a talent for high design!
    How in the world did you get to be so fine?

    When I think that maybe I’ve seen too much
    You come around and dammit! I'm out of touch.
    Now I see you, and I need you on repeat, all the time
    How in the world did you get to be so fine?

    Na na na na na na na na na na na
    Na na na na na na na na na na na

    Now I see you, and I need you all for me, all the time
    How in the world did you get to be so fine?

    Come Together
  • Sons of the Sea is a collaboration between Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd and producer Brendan O'Brien, who has manned the boards on several Incubus albums. Boyd penned lyrics for the project and sang while O'Brien wrote and played most of the music. The singer told Noisecreep : "[We were] two artists who had worked together before, but now in a completely different context. Every song we worked on was different from the next one. It was a process of continual discovery."
  • O'Brien was caught off guard a little bit with this song's subject matter. Boyd recalled to Noisecreep: "(He) was like, 'Can we do more songs like this? What's it about?' I'm like, 'It's about sex, it's about sex.' (laughs)."
  • Boyd used a specific film reference from his youth as a muse for the song. He told Fuse TV it was,"the scene in the movie Fast Times At Ridgemount High where Phoebe Cates comes out of the pool in slow motion, water spraying everywhere, and she undoes her bikini top to show the world the glory."
