Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and [Repeat: x3]
Shake your tambourine go and [Repeat: x2]

Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and [Repeat: x8]
E.V.E. come through in the Mazarati

Doin it big like I live in the Taj Mahal,

Talk shit, and I don't get in the bla the bla

Ha, thats why they loving, ahh
Dats real, when the chick that they talk about
Goddamn is the words that come out they mouth
She look good always, without a doubt
Ask for her, she back and caking ou


So they be watching while we wiggle around
Look at them drooling, niggas ain't used to dis sound

I keep em moving, all ma ladies put ya hands in the air
It's all right now we gonna keep you on ya feet the whole night now
Pop them bottles, yea drink that up man

Got you feeling crazy yea that was the plan
Waiting for me wasn't ready for dis
He got the game sewn up, know I'm talking bout Swizz

Yeah I know u wanna fight it but why would you try
We got them shaking everything from the hood to Dubai
Yea we do it big man why would we lie?

C'mon
(1, 2, 3 everybody!)


Get low, get low then pick up, pick up
Get your hands in the air it's a stick-up, stick-up

Shake your tambourines move it quicker, quicker
Shake it down in town get the pitch up, pitch up
Shake it shake it to the floor, gotta love that
How she keep it goin' on you know you love that

Shake it shake it to the floor you gotta love that

Get ya ass on the dance floor

Dance on the dance floor

Move em out the way
If they ain't doing it how you want y'all
You ain't gotta ask me
C'mon, don't need my permission
Y'all heard, what you waiting for?

Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and [Repeat: x4]

    Geez.... why do some people always have to have a meaning for every single song? Can't artists just write about nothing?

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
