Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking
Come in to my house
You're invited into my house
Entering the back of my house
Welcoming you into my house
Come in to my house
You're invited into my house
Entering the back of my house
Welcoming you into my house
I've invited loads to my house
Loads of people come to my house
They take stuff inside of my house
And smoke stuff outside of my house
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking
I've seen them before
Lots of people at my front door
Lots of people in my front door
Trying to get into my house
I've seen them before
Lots of people in my front door
Lots of people at my front door
Trying to get into my house
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking
We're merrymaking
All the stuff that you've been taking
All the stuff that I've been taking
All the stuff that we've been taking
We're merrymaking
All the stuff that we've been taking
All the stuff that I've been taking
All the stuff that you've been taking
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place
Merrymaking, drug taking
At my place baby, at my place

I still think Calvin Harris' first album remains his best to date
Mezzanine
what about Ready for the Weekend?
Aurva Roy
Isn't that true with other artists, not just Calvin Harris?
David Mitchell
@Aurva Roy nah - totally subjective tbh - for eg, I think some of prodigy's later albums are better than their first one, Same with Chemical Brothers, my favourite album is Further.

I think Ready for the Weekend was where he found his "balance" in what hew as trying to do.... then he went overboard
Nozil A
