Let's go, oh

Baby, show something (uh)
Don't say nothing (don't you say a word)
I just want to see you work it (come on, baby, work it for me)
That ain't frontin' (no)
Show me something (let me see it, girl)
I just try to see you work it (I just wanna see you work it for me, yeah)

I heard her talkin' loud
But she ain't sayin' nothing
What up with all the frontin'?
Come on and show me something
You know you wanna do it
Go ahead yo man ain't comin'
Please, do that thing when you dippin'
Keep yo hips poppin'
What up with all these questions?
And what you plannin', baby girl?
You talkin' to me, like you talkin' to an adolescent
I need that jump off, jump off
Clothes, come off, come off
Her place, freaky beats and so on so on, ayy
Let your waist pop (huh) when the bass knock (yeah)
I flood the watch to the top, until it's no clock
Can't even tell the time, but you know it's mine
What time is it, ma? It's twenty karats after nine
Are you dehydrated?
Well, let me quench your thirst (check it)
But first things first, let's do what we rehearsed
Don't get nervous now
It's your big break, break it
Get up and take a stance and let me see ya

Baby, show something (uh)
Don't say nothing (don't you say a word)
I just want to see you work it (come on, baby, work it for me)
That ain't frontin' (no)
Show me something (let me see it, girl)
I just try to see you work it (I just wanna see you work it for me, yeah)

She still talkin' loud, but she ain't sayin' nothin'
Why you ain't movin' ma? DJ ain't playin' nothin'
You tell him, play this here until the speakers blow
Birthdays, pick a place, baby, we can go
I like yo Air Max, she showin' no back
She showin' off her tatts, you ain't know
Slightly ghetto-ghetto, she bourghetto zhetto
She 5'5, brown eyes, in stiletto 'letto (yeah, yeah)
Well did you come alone? Or you got two or three?
That ain't no thang, baby girl, 'cause I got two with me
And we gon' all kick it, and you about to see
Just what a day would be if you was in the ride with me
Turnin' on the headlights, then we be
(Runnin' all the red lights) oh
It's full steam ahead, and ain't no stoppin' now
Now come on here and drop it, and he gon' tell why

Baby, show something (uh)
Don't say nothing (don't you say a word)
I just want to see you work it (come on, baby, work it for me)
That ain't frontin' (no)
Show me something (let me see it, girl)
I just try to see you work it (I just wanna see you work it for me, yeah)

Now all my Midwest shorties, come on do that thang and
Dance for me, dance for me, yeah
And all my down South shorties, come on, do that thang, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
And all my East coast shorties, come on, do that thang (I said)
Dance for me, dance for me, yeah
And all my West coast shorties, come on do that thang
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

She still talkin' loud, hold up, I hear her better now
She keep a thong print on in any weather now
No sight of a band but I can hear the horns playing
Da-dat da dat da da da da dum (oh)
She got me hypnotized just like that Biggie guy
'Cause she been tryna prove her point since we been inside
So we can get it on, just wait 'til we get home
I'm on something, call my partner Jay
(Mama, come on)

Baby, show something (uh)
Don't say nothing (come on) (don't you say a word)
I just want to see you work it (come on, baby, work it for me, hey)
That ain't frontin' (no)
Show me something (let me see it, girl)
I just try to see you work it (I just wanna see you work it for me, yeah)

I just wanna see you work it

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
Album art
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
