DJ Andy Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know where you're going.
I don't that's a-acting right,
You don't think it's showing.
A-jumpin' up, fallin' down,
Don't misunderstand me.
You don't think that I know your plan,
What you try'n to hand me?
Out all night, sleep all day,
I know what you're doing.
If you're gonna a-act that way,
Think there's trouble brewing.
The lyrics to DJ Andy Smith's song Funk are all about suspicion and distrust. The singer is clearly concerned about the actions of the person they are addressing, who appears to be living a hedonistic lifestyle of partying all night long and sleeping all day. Despite the attempts of the other person to hide their behavior, the singer is onto them, telling them in no uncertain terms that they know what's going on.
There is a sense of tension and unease in the lyrics, with the singer worried that "trouble's brewing" if the person being addressed keeps up their current behavior. There are hints of frustration and irritation in the lyrics too, with lines like "You don't think it's showing" and "What you try'n to hand me?" suggesting that the singer feels like they are being taken for a fool.
Overall, the lyrics to Funk are a warning to the person being addressed that their actions are being closely watched and that they need to be careful. There is a sense that the singer is trying to stop the other person from making a mistake that could have serious consequences.
