Break It (Down James Brown) Lyrics

Ichi Ni San Shi
Yeah
Mmhmm
Lamb Chop

I, I want you to know
There's something about you
That I can't stand

I, I'll never call you again
Let me point it out
Why you got no friends

So break it down
James Brown
Break it down
James Brown

Wake me up
I wipe the sleep from my eye
Should have seen me last night
I would have made you cry

And take, take away food
You take away everything
You take away my mood

C'mon, we spend free nights
On top of the hill
Oh it was all you could eat until you had your fill
Yeah, well, see I don't even know if I can take it much longer
You got the right reasons to make me feel stronger
Cause I'm just a boy, you're just a girl
Come on baby let's rock this world

Salmon, yeah, salmon swims up stream
You know what I mean
That's what I'm lead to believe

Break it down
James Brown
Break it down
James Brown

Break it down
James Brown
Break it down
James Brown!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
