59 Ways to Funk
Boomtang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Party people in the place know it's time to go
But there's one more thing that you've got to know
Gonna party all night till we lose control
Turn the bass up high turn the lights down low
Party people in the place know it's time to go
But there's one more thing that you've got to know
If you knew what's on my mind
We'd be funkin' all the time baby
Once I get you on the floor
You'll be callin' out for more tonight
Cause there ain't no party
Like a Boomtang party, that's right
Everybody scream and shout
Gonna turn this mutha out tonight
I've got 59 ways to move ya
59 ways to get through to ya
And only one chance to lose ya'
Never know just what you'll find
When I open up your mind baby
Gonna slip inside your veins
Put the funk into your brain tonight
Put your hands in the sky
Gonna get you so high - come on
When I hit ya with the sound
You ain't never coming down tonight
I've got 59 ways to move ya
59 ways to get through to ya
And only one chance to lose ya'
We'll go round and round'
We'll go round and round'
We'll go round and round'
We'll go round and round'
Turn the bass up high turn the lights down low
Party people in the place know it's time to go
But there's one more thing that you've got to know
Gonna party all night till we lose control
Turn the bass up high turn the lights down low
Party people in the place know it's time to go
But there's one more thing that you've got to know
Gonna party all night till we lose control
The lyrics to Boomtang's "59 Ways to Funk" describe a wild party where the bass is turned up and the lights are turned down low to create an atmosphere that will get people dancing until they lose control. There's an emphasis on the power of music to move and change people, with the singer promising to slip inside the listener's veins and put the funk into their brain tonight. The chorus repeats the phrase "I've got 59 ways to move ya, 59 ways to get through to ya, and only one chance to lose ya'" which seems to suggest that the singer is confident they can get anyone within earshot of their music to dance and have a good time.
The lyrics also suggest some sexual themes, with lines like "once I get you on the floor, you'll be callin' out for more tonight". This adds to the overall sense of abandon and decadence that the song tries to convey. Overall, the message seems to be that life is short, let's party hard tonight and create some unforgettable memories.
