Dynamite
Asta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Been taking my time not thinking about you
Just walking my mind, walking my mind
Yeah I could call but I know I don't have to
Coz I'm doing alright, feeling alright

But I'm affected by your energy wave
Like dynamite we exploding you take me away
You eject me in to outer space
You been lighting me up, you been lighting me up babe

Oh girl you got that magic
Put boys in constant panic
Combat boots and combat jacket
Drinking every night, eating all organic
Tom, you could be Tom's girl if you want girl
Tell me what you want girl
Bookshelf full of Phillip K Dick and Orwell
So of course I fell, I'm only Mortal
Your addictions, contradiction
Always lying, politicians
For a rich girl, poor decisions
But when you visit, its all forgiven
And you know I'm feeling strong for ya
I mean only gotta call for ya
I make you sing like the opera, an your body go
La La La... Yeah La La La

But I'm affected by your energy wave
Like dynamite we exploding you take me away
You eject me in to outer space
You been lighting me up, you been lighting me up babe
But I'm affected by your energy wave
Like dynamite we exploding you take me away
You eject me in to outer space
You been lighting me up, you been lighting me up babe

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

I don't mean to be gooey, but girl you make me go gabooey, boom
Cutie, I think I want your cooties
So stop not doing me, and do me
Catch us in the club, Darts in the juicy
Your lying on the roof of your house like snoopy
We are having fun, all the time, all the time is fun
I sort of kind of reckon you might be like the one

But I'm affected by your energy wave
Like dynamite we exploding you take me away
You eject me in to outer space
You been lighting me up, you been lighting me up babe
But I'm affected by your energy wave
Like dynamite we exploding you take me away
You eject me in to outer space
You been lighting me up, you been lighting me up babe

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

@@HoneyTwee could be because the guy sounds like he rocked up to the recording studio with a hangover and 3 hours sleep.

Asta sounds crisp and energetic and he sounds like a fucking drone.
