Next Level Charli
Charli XCX Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I go hard, I go fast
And I never look back
I go speeding on the highway
Burn rubber, no crash
Turn the volume up in the party
Put your hands up and dance
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

And bounce, never sleep
Push it all on repeat
I go speeding on the highway
Flame burning, tire screams
Turn the volume up in your bedroom
Put your hands up and scream
Bump bump, lights go out
Go forever and ever

And drop body high
Blue and pink like the sky
I go speeding on the highway
Vroom vroomming, might die
Turn the volume up in your Prius
Windows down and just vibe
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

And roll with your friends out 'til 7AM
Come and meet me on the highway
Smoke blowing, let's race
Turn the volume up on the speakers
Got that look on your face
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

I go hard, I go fast
And I never look back
I go speeding on the highway
Burn rubber, no crash
Turn the volume up in the party
Put your hands up and dance
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

And bounce, never sleep
Push it all on repeat
I go speeding on the highway
Flame burning, tire screams
Turn the volume up in your bedroom
Put your hands up and scream
Bump bump, lights go out
Go forever and ever

And drop body high
Blue and pink like the sky
I go speeding on the highway
Vroom vroomming, might die
Turn the volume up in your Prius
Windows down and just vibe
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

And roll with your friends out 'til 7AM
Come and meet me on the highway
Smoke blowing, let's race
Turn the volume up on the speakers
Got that look on your face
Bump bump, in the rave
Go forever and ever

(XCX)

And bounce, never sleep
Push it all on repeat
I go speeding on the highway
Flame burning, tire screams
Turn the volume up in your bedroom
Put your hands up and scream




Bump bump, lights go out
Go forever and ever

this song is so euphoric that it becomes sad. it's like looking back at a memory of you partying hard and having a carpool night with your friends, knowing full well that it will never happen ever again.

If you're careful, find the right people, and take care of each other, the party never stops. Shit changes, don't get me wrong, but the party can absolutely go on forever.

“I wrote this track for the Angels- my fans. This is the Angel anthem. Everything in this song is about things that I imagine my fans doing: driving to a party, getting ready for a party, playing their music in their Prius, whatever it is. This song is for you guys, thank you for loving me. Thank you for supporting me.” -Charli XCX Apple Music
