Coming Down Lyrics

I got somethin' to tell you
but don't know how to say it
I guess that I can only say one thing:
girl, I been bad again
Girl, I been bad again

Cause with this money comes problems
and with these problems come solutions
And I use 'em but I'm fading
I forget
I forget what you mean to me
Hope you know what you mean to me

Pick
up
The phone
The party's finished and I want you to know
I'm
all alone
I'm feeling everything before I got up
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
(x2)

Poppin' again
I tried to quit again
I'm always tight wit' somethin I begin
That's why my niggas got me to the end
So play what I take, I take what I spend
I ain't lyin' to nobody but me
and you
and me
But you especially

Pick
up
The phone
The party's finished and I want you to know
I'm
all alone
I'm feeling everything before I got up
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
(x2)

Pick up the phone
I'm all alone
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
I always want you when I'm coming down
(x2)

I'm 100% Japanese so I almost understand what she says in the background though it's even hard for me to hear some part cause she's whispering than speaking. I bet this vocal sample is taken from a horror movie or something dark. She actually sounds scary to me.

K, here's the exact speech:

Watashi o okorasenaide hoshii (I don't want you to piss me off)

Konoyo na koto o sareruno wa fukainano (it's disgusting you did something like this)

Shi-something (lol.... I couldn't hear it. maybe it's Shiyo or Shiro or something else that's a person's name. I'm lost on it. I don't even know this person is a male or female) wa hikyou desu. (Shi-sth is unfair)

watashi no kako o shitte, nando mo watashi no naka ni haittekuru (s/he's got inside me knowing my past so many times)

-giggling-

Watashi no kotae nado shitteiru hazu nanoni (I bet s/he knows my answer though)

Watashi ga -something I can't hear- to tsumi wo kasanete kita koto o, anata wa shitte inai no? (Don't you know I've constantly sinned? -with a missing word to hear-)


Yup, that's it. Although I tried my best, I'm afraid I'm sure there're a few missing words as I wrote above........ but that's all I can do. Hope it helps. Enjoy =]]

I'm pretty sure at around 3:12 in this song, the female voice in the background is speaking Japanese. My Japanese is poor however, so I can't make out entirely what she's saying. She does talk about wanting both something and nothing. And her speech is formal, not casual which is somewhat odd because formal speaking usually happens in business situations or amongst extremely conscientious speakers. Unless describing her desires is part of her "business transaction" to receive what she wants from whoever she's talking too. It's clever, that's all I can.

My Opinion

maybe the business transaction is about drugs"i always want you when im coming down"

maybe the business transaction is about drugs"i always want you when im coming down"

Good song about illicit activity of some kind. I'm guessing it follows High for This, which is another very interesting song. Both should never no question as to why...

leave (not "never")

"I always want you when I'm coming down." No truer words have ever been sung by this band.
