808
Blaque Feat. Destiny's Child Lyrics

Oooh (yea yea yea yea)
Expressing excitement and anticipation about the upcoming music

Check it out
Listen closely to what I have to say

See what I believe is
This is what I think

We was granted the power
We were given the ability

What's that? Power, wha
What do you mean by power?

Ha, the power to make you dance
The ability to make you move and groove

Like this
In this particular way

I heard she's got a 9 to 5 (yea yea yea yea)
I heard that she has a typical job

But comin' in after 12 (check it out)
But she comes in after midnight

I know they're tired of her lies (yea yea yea)
I know they're fed up with her dishonesty

Just let her go, what the deal? (wha wha wha wha)
Just let her go, why are you holding on?

(wha wha wha)
Expressing confusion and disbelief

And now take me for instance babe (uh huh)
Consider me instead

See my love will drive her crazy
My love will make her feel insane

'Cause I'll be goin' boom like an 808
I'll be making a sound like the 808 drum machine

Be makin' circles like a figure 8
Dancing in a circular motion similar to the figure 8

You know it feels good from head to toe
You feel good all over your body

Now hold on to me baby here we go
Hold on tight to me, we're about to start

You'll be goin' boom baby boom baby boom
You will be making a rhythmic noise

And I'll be goin' ooh baby ooh baby ooh (check it out)
And I will be expressing pleasure and excitement

I heard she's not all that to you
I heard that she is not attractive to you

Cause she can't do it like I do (ha ha ha)
Because she can't perform like I can

So put that trophy on the shelf (wha wha wha wha)
Stop valuing her and move on

Go about and find somebody else
Look for someone new

Ain't nobody can bang it like me
No one can make music like me

Stack it like me, wouldn't like me
No one can arrange beats like me and wouldn't appreciate it

Ask Kelly, his original plan
Ask Kelly Rowland, what he initially intended

To get as large on the map, by makin' you clap your hands
To become famous through music that makes people clap along

Damn shoo bizzatch, I'm not gonna lie
Wow, for sure, I'm being honest

I'll pump my amps to this
I'll increase the volume of my music for this

Cutie pie, honey bunch
Affectionate terms used to address someone

If you're not busy take me to lunch
If you have time, let's have a meal together

Oh, ya'll done did it now, with the luscious music
Oh, you have done something great with this great-sounding music

World poppin' crews, and what, 8-0 grooves
Worldwide popular musical groups, with 808 drum machine beats

Is what intended, you to get me up you
This was meant to motivate and energize you

You one in a mill, forget the mens
You're one of a kind, forget about guys in general

Cause they ride in my pockets baby
Because they depend on me financially

And today I just wanna
I only want one thing today

Jiggle my ball
Move my body in a fun way

Bet I knock your socks off
I'm sure I'll impress you

Wit' my what what what (wha wha wha wha)
With my unique and pleasing sound

Boom like an 808
Making a bass-heavy sound

Circles like a figure 8
Dancing in a circular motion similar to the figure 8

Feels good from head to toe
It's a satisfying experience

To me baby here we go
I'm ready for this, let's start
