Do What U Want (feat. R. Kelly) Lyrics

(Yeah, turn the mic up)

I, I feel good
I walk alone
But then I trip upon myself and I fall
I, I stand up and then I'm okay
But then you print some shit that makes me wanna scream

So do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, don't stop let's party
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Write what you want, say what you want about me
If you're wonderin' know that I'm not sorry
Do what you want with my body, what you want with my body
What you want with my body

You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice, cuz you don't own my life but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body

R. Kelly:
Early morning, longer nights
Tom Ford, private flights
Crazy schedule, fast life
I wouldn't trade it in cuz it's our life
(Let's slow it down)
I could be the drink in your cup
I could be the green in your blunt
Your pusher man
Yeah I got what you want
You wanna escape
All of the crazy shit
You're the Marilyn, I'm the president
And I love to hear you say, girl
Do what I want, do what I want with your body
Do what I want, do what I want with your body
Back of the club takin' shots gettin' naughty
No invitations It's a private party
Do what I want, do what I want with your body
Do what I want, do what I want with your body
Yeah we takin' these haters and we roughin' 'em up
And we layin' the cut like we don't give a fuck

You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice, cuz you don't own my life but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body

Sometimes I'm scared I suppose if you ever let me go
I would fall apart if you break my heart
So just take my body and don't stop the party

You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice, cuz you don't own my life but
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body

Do what you want with me, what you want with my body
Do what you want with me, want you out of my body (world)
Do what you want with me, what you want with my body
Do what you want with me, what you want with my body
World, help me now
What you want with my body
Do what you want with my body, do what you want with my body
What you want with my body (world)

I would think twice before giving R. Kelly permission to do what he wants with your body, Gaga.

My Opinion

HAHAHA

Cover art for Do What U Want (feat. R. Kelly) lyrics by Lady GaGa

The songs about not giving the haters her heart, mind, soul instead just giving them her body so they can say whatever and do whatever they want with her body (photoshop, ex. born this way ball tour 'fat' pictures)

She said during an interview that her haters can do what they want with her body but only her little monsters can have heart.

Song Meaning

That's exactly how I felt. I argued with my girlfriend who said it was merely a sexy song, but looking at performances and closely at lyrics and at Gaga's character really makes me feel as if her message is less sexual and more "screw the press and haters"

Cover art for Do What U Want (feat. R. Kelly) lyrics by Lady GaGa

Basically: "You can body shame me all you want, but that's not going to take away who I am or what I do." Like most of the songs on her album, this is just a general middle finger to her critics and haters in the media.

Song Meaning

I think this song means that her critics can "Do What U Want" wit her body meaning like calling her fat. When R. Kelly says "Escape all this crazy shit", he means escape all those mean critics. Also "you don't own my mind" means the critics won't force her what to do.

Song Meaning

Resignation That is what this song is about. In the context of a pop song, Lady Gaga is resigning herself and therefore all women to the level of sex objects. This is not the end; people are more than that...women are people. R. Kelly's "character" within the song has no inkling of this thinking it is just a pop song like any other. Fuck it you think women are all just a bunch of tools--utilize us, but really we'll be utilizing you keeping our souls (for what they are worth) intact. This is a bleak song as far as the relations between the sexes is concerned. Men do believe that women are objects for sex, even the "nice guys"--you know who you are. Women, quite rightly, do believe--as men unthinkingly do--that they are more than just their bodies. This is a perfect pop song in that it is catchy, somewhat edgy (R. Kelly's even being a part of it, disgraced as he is), but that it has a somewhat complex subtext of transcending the corporeal body and its faith that their is something beyond that. "We lay in the cut like we don't give a fuuuuuuuuck!" Will send shivers down the spine of all but the most jaded of listeners, even if it is being sung by such an oblivious throwback as the one R. Kelly "plays" here.

Personally I think this song is about a certain stage of a relationship where a couple have began being sexual. Lady Gaga does not want to give R. Kelly her love because she senses flaws - "I, I stand up and then I'm okay But then you print some shit that makes me wanna scream" She is not sure about him. Though in the second verse I think that R. Kelly is trying to prove himself to her by saying things like "I could be the drink in your cup I could be the green in your blunt"

Cover art for Do What U Want (feat. R. Kelly) lyrics by Lady GaGa

This song is about Lady Gaga giving the world her body, while she keeps her heart and her mind focused on her music. She sings,

"My bones hurt from all the show hmm But I don't feel the pain 'cause I'm a pro I I sink in and then I'm okay eh, 'Cause my body belongs to you when I'm on stage eh"

to say that she is tribute to her fans. She lets them do what they want with her body while she's onstage. But then she also lets her critics know her body mainly belongs to them too:

"But then you print some shit that makes me want to scream So do what you want, what you want with my body Do what you want, don't stop, let's party"

She grants them control and says that they can insult her body and call her ugly as much as they like, but she's not gonna let them have her heart or mind.

I feel good, I walk along But then I trip upon myself and I fall off I stand up, and then I'm OK But then you break that chip That makes me want to scream

So do what you want What you want with my body Do what you want Don't stop, let's party Do what you want What you want with my body Do what you want What you want with my body

Write what you want Say what you want 'bout me If you're wondering Know that I'm not sorry Do what you want What you want with my body What you want with my body

You can't have my heart And you won't use my mind but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body You can't stop my voice cause You don't own my life but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body

Early morning, longer nights Time for private flights Crazy schedule, fast life I wouldn't trade it in Cause it's our life (now let's slow it down) I could be the drink in your cup I could be the green in your blunt Your pusha man, yeah I got what you want You want to escape all of the crazy shit You're the mailman, I'm the president I love to hear you sing, girl

Do what I want Do what I want with your body Do what I want Do what I want with your body Back of the club, taking shots, getting naughty No invitations, it's a private party Do what I want Do what I want with your body Do what I want Do what I want with your body Yeah we taking these haters And we roughin' em up And we laying in the cut like we don't give a fuck

You can't have my heart And you won't use my mind but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body You can't stop my voice cause You don't own my life but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body

Sometimes I'm scared I suppose If you ever let me go I would fall apart If you break my heart So just take my body And don't stop the party

You can't have my heart And you won't use my mind but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body You can't stop my voice cause You don't own my life but Do what you want with my body Do what you want with my body
