Explode
Cover Drive Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You spin me all around, no gravity, no ground
My world is your snow globe, you turn me upside down
You know I like the shake, you make my heart quake
You speak and I'm rumbling
You move and I'm blundering
Slowly I'm losing control
I feel it banging, got me vibrating
You got me and I'm falling, so don't let me go
No one can save me, no drug could fix me
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
You're looking in my face and I can't keep it down
I let the words, escape I've gone and shout it out
No one can help myself, I can't control it babe
I feel it building up, you got me blown away
You speak and I'm rumbling
You move and I'm blundering
Slowly I'm losing control
I feel it banging, got me vibrating
You got me and I'm falling, so don't let me go
No one can save me, no drug could fix me
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
Got my head like spinning all night
Round shapes, you take my breath from me baby
Oh look what you've done, I am coming undone
The magic that you got, that is blocking me now
I feel it banging, got me by vibrating
You got me and I'm falling, so don't let me go
No one can save me, no drug could fix me
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode

[Dappy:]
I'm the daddy and you know that
You know once you go Dap you never go back
Should be on my shhh
Even though she got a man at home
Three words whipped Indiana Jones
I'm gonna take a back seat
But only if you get in front
Body smoking she loves it when I'm being blunt
Sun kissed skin straight from the Caribbean
You a good girl pretty bad news
See that you ain't in for the moolah
Don't think cause you're hot I won't throw you in the cooler
You know you're my bad b, so hold that
I won't look into your eyes till they roll back
Put it, put it down on me baby do it nice and slow
If you ain't like them others show me something that I don't know
If you're a time bomb then I'm gonna make you blow
Just leave them high heels on and turn them lights down low
I feel it banging
Got me vibrating
You got me and I'm falling, so don't let me go
No one can save me
No drug can fix me
It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

It hit me now, I feel like I'm going to explode
