Last Night a DJ Saved My Life
Busta Rhymes DJ Clue Fabulous & Mariah Carey Lyrics

Last night a DJ
The previous night, a disc jockey

Saved my life
Rescued me from a difficult situation or helped me realize something important

Cause I was sittin' there
Because I was just sitting and feeling uninterested

Bored to death
Extremely bored and uninterested

And in just one breath
And suddenly, without delay

He said
The DJ spoke up

You gotta get up
You need to stand up or take action

You gotta get on
You need to move forward or make progress

You gotta get down girl
You need to dance and have fun

You know you
You are aware that

Drive me crazy baby
Make me feel intensely attracted or interested

You've got me
You have the power to make me feel

Turning to another man
Making me want someone else because of your behavior

Called you on the phone
Phoned you

No one's home
You were not available to answer the phone

Baby why ya
My dear, why did you

Leave me all alone
Abandon me and make me feel lonely

And if it wasn't for the music
If it were not for the music

I don't know what I'd do
I have no idea how I would have coped

From a broken heart
From a deeply sad and hurt state of mind

Saved me life with a song
Rescued me or helped me see things clearly through a musical piece

You know
You are aware of the fact that

I hopped into my car
I quickly jumped into my vehicle

Didn't get very far no
Didn't get too far

Because I had you
Because you were on my mind

On my mind
Occupying my thoughts

Why be so unkind?
Why do you choose to act cruelly?

Your women all around
Women that you are involved with are present everywhere

All around this town, boy
In every corner or part of the city, my dear

But I was trapped
I was under your control, unable to escape my feelings

In love with you
Fell under your spell or captivated emotionally by you

And I didn't know
I was uncertain or confused

What to do
What action to take

But when I turned
But then turned

On my radio
Tuned on my radio

I found out all
I obtained all of the information needed

I needed to know
That I must have been aware of

Hey listen up to your local DJ
Listen carefully to the DJ in your neighborhood

You better hear
You need to pay attention to

What he's got to say
What he's got in mind or importance to deliver

There's not a problem
Nothing is an issue or concern

That I can't fix
That I am unable to solve

Cause I can do it
Since I am capable of achieving that

In the mix
Through sound mixing or musical arrangement

Gives you trouble
Causes you difficulties

Just you move out
It's best to leave or walk away

On the double
As quickly as possible

And you don't let it
And you should not let it

Trouble your brain
Bother or disturb your mind excessively

Cause away goes troubles
Because troubles go away

Down the drain
Disappear or vanish completely
