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

    Uh yeah, lots of the lyrics here are wrong. Along with "Quench your thirst"...

    "Talkin' to me like you're talkin' to an analyst." "Let your waist pop when the bass hot." "Until there's no clock." "20 carets after nine." "I like your Air Max, the shirt with no back, she showin' off her tats." "She's 5'5', brown eyes, in stillettos." "It's full steam ahead." "Burning all the red lights." "Down south shorties." "She got me hypnotized."

    But that's not the point. 6 years on and this song is still awesome.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song "Fortnight" by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word "fortnight" shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
