Cover art for Surprise lyrics by Gnarls Barkley

"Does anyone make out what it says right at the beginning of the song??" I think it is 'I am getting lost, On my way to find him' I think the song is about being special, but you are not always special for long and you shouldn't be 'surprised' when you are no longer special.

My Interpretation

The song samples Building with A Steeple by The Eighth Day.

The intro goes "Don't get lost On your way to find it"
