its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Oh, you didn't think we can do it again
Twista, Kanye West from Po Pimpin' to Poppin' Tags
From Champions to Slow Jammin', oh, baby
We can even make you a overnight celebrity
Know what I'm sayin'? Come on
Why don't we play somethin' these hoes'll like?
Drive whips I know they like
Twista, you told her right?
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Give you ice like Kobe wife
We sorta like Goldie, right?
The way we mold 'em right
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Girl, I see you in them Apple Bottom jeans
Chinchilla on your back, I wanna know your name
Girl, I'm Twista, I could blow your brains
Put you in a chameleon '04 Range
Still sexy when you smoke that flame
Jerk it like a chicken when you throw that thang
She got me hotter than a oven, the way that she talk
Switchin' to freaky, so I'm lovin' the way that she walk
You lookin' good, girl, you oughta be in pictures
Listen to me, I see your career goin' sky high
Takin' you home to the crib in the Chi
And every time I see your thighs, I cry when I drive by
Watchin' you should be a thrill, got the fellas on some Johnny Gill
Steady screamin', "My, my, my, my!"
Walk on the carpet with the diamonds that flick in the dark
Kickin' it on the couch at 106 & Park
I can see your beauty on the big screen
I can see me freakin' you with whip cream
I can see you on stage at the awards
With a dress better than Jennifer's and doin' big things
Kick it with me, I can mold your life
You lookin' good, girl, show you right
Dre told me you the prototype
I can make you a celebrity overnight
Why don't we play somethin' these hoes'll like?
Drive whips I know they like
Twista, you told her right?
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Give you ice like Kobe wife
We sorta like Goldie, right?
The way we mold 'em right
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Why don't we play somethin' these hoes'll like?
Drive whips I know they like
Twista, you told her right?
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Give you ice like Kobe wife
We sorta like Goldie, right?
The way we mold 'em right
I could make you a celebrity overnight
You want fame, you can take that path
Candlelights 'fore you take a bath
You got such a sensational ass
I'ma get you Jimmy Choo and Marc Jacob bags
I can cop her a 2003
Make her smile when she sees Spre's
I can get you on CDs and DVDs
Take you to BeBe's and BCBG
I can get you in the places to be into
The people to know or show you things to get into
I wanna be your lover and your confidant
And protect you from others, don't ever let a brother pimp you
If you want the stars, you can reach 'em, girl
Y'all, take a look at her, she got such an astonishin' body
I can see you in some Gucci or Robert Cavalli
And I bet she gon' put a hurt on 'em hard in the party
And you know you kill 'em in the club we go
You was born to be a pro, how you pose takin' photos
And I love you 'cause you freaky with the door closed
Drop it to the flo', let that go when you roll slow
And I love it when I hit it from the back
And you get on top of me and have a brother goin', "Oh, oh"
Girl, I love how you roll me right
I can make you a celebrity overnight
Why don't we play somethin' these hoes'll like?
Drive whips I know they like
Twista, you told her right?
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Give you ice like Kobe wife
We sorta like Goldie, right?
The way we mold 'em right
I could make you a celebrity overnight
See, see, baby girl
You see how you make a brother break down
I just gotta ask you, what you need?
What you need from me? Oh, you wanna be a star?
Oh, you messin' with the right one
I can take you there
I can make sure you've got all the finest things
Let me be your manager
Come here, girl, I could see you bored
Turn you to the queen that I see you for
Take you shoppin' on sprees in stores
I'ma get you to the MTV awards
We about to do a show tonight
You lookin' good girl, show you right
Take you places I know you like
I could make you a celebrity overnight
Come here, girl, you could hang if you bored
We could do plenty things plus more
I'm about to have you change in the stores
I can even get you to the Soul Train awards
We about to do a show tonight
You lookin' good, girl, show you right
Take you places I know you like
I could make you a celebrity overnight

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Techno Ted
Audioslave
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Van Halen
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Oooohhhhh-ooh ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!
