My chemicals got you feeling like you're ready to blow,
If I had a Masarati then we could ride if fo sho,
So precious, so clean, clean, Ms.Jacksons in control,
grab your keys and lets go,
Hands up if we care,
We're not gonna feel no, not gonna feel this alone,
Hands up if we care
We're not gonna feel no, not gonna feel this alone!

You and I You and I,
making the ground shake baby, ground shake baby,
You and I You and I
making the ground shake baby, ground shake baby!
We just wanna lose control,
We just wanna lose, wejust wanna lose control!
You and I You and I
Making the ground shake baby, ground shake baby!

This oxygen got you feeling like you're breathing the wind,
put on my mike jacket zip us on, and moon walking,
whos bad baby,

grab your drinks and lets go!

Hands up if we care
We're not gonna feel no, not gonna feel this alone
Hands up if we care,

Overall Meaning

The song "Ground Shake" by Dirty Radio is a catchy and energetic anthem that expresses the pure joy and exhilaration of being alive and in love. The lyrics convey an atmosphere of liberation and a feeling of being alive, with references to the powerful sensations that one experiences when they are in love or having a good time, such as chemical rushes and the feeling of the wind against one's face. The opening lines of the song set the stage for this sensation, with the singer's chemicals causing them to feel like they are ready to explode with excitement, and the suggestion that they could ride a Maserati, a symbol of luxury and excitement.


The chorus of the song reinforces this idea of being united in a shared feeling of excitement and joy, with the repetition of "You and I" suggesting that the singer and their loved one are experiencing this sensation together, and the use of the metaphor of the ground shaking reinforcing the idea that they are not just experiencing happiness, but a sense of transcendence that has a physical effect on the world around them. The verses of the song contain several allusions to popular culture, such as references to Michael Jackson and his famous Moonwalk, as well as other songs that have explored similar themes of love, excitement, and liberation.


Overall, "Ground Shake" is a song that is both celebratory and liberating, expressing the joy and excitement of experiencing life to its fullest.
