About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees is just blue
Like him, inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue Corvette
And everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette, it's in and outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette, it's in and outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
The lyrics to Eiffel 65's song Blue depict the story of a little guy living in a world where everything is blue, both inside and out. His house is blue, as is his Corvette, and even the people around him seem blue. The lyrics also reveal that this little guy is feeling very isolated and alone, as he claims to have nobody to listen to him. The song repeats the phrase "da ba dee da ba daa" frequently, which seems to represent the sound of the little guy's sadness and loneliness.
The color blue is symbolically associated with feelings of sadness and melancholy, and this is reflected in the melancholy tone of the music and lyrics in this song. The repeated "da ba dee da ba daa" seems to convey a sense of monotony and hopelessness that is often associated with depression. However, despite the bleak and monotonous portrayal of this blue world, the song somehow manages to be catchy and upbeat.
One interpretation of these lyrics is that they are a commentary on the state of modern society, where people are becoming increasingly isolated and disconnected from one another despite being more connected than ever through technology. The song suggests that even in a world where everything is connected through the color blue, there can still be a sense of disconnection and loneliness.

Abel Grangeiro
[Verse 1]
Tu sempre adorou um pancadão
Te trouxe na base certa, aqui não entra vacilão
Ela não entrega o coração
Pra qualquer mano maloca que se acha o malvadão
[Verse 2]
Bruna, tu já parou pra pensar
Que é automático quando tu mexe sem parar?
Bunda balança e você não consegue mais parar
Bunda balança e você não consegue controlar
[Verse 3]
Põe a mão no joelho e bate palma, bate palma
Com a potranca desesperada, ela bate palma, palma
Põe a mão no joelho e bate palma, bate palma
Com a potranca desesperada, ela bate palma, palma
Paladin Smith
[Intro]
Sometimes it feels like
The world spin opposite of the way you spin
Sometimes you just gotta create your own
A world
[Verse 1: Allan Kingdom]
Ah, oh-oh
I been on a mission, man, I been on a mission
Lately (I been, I been)
In some sticky situations, I just grinder down to make it
(Roll it up, roll it up, roll it)
I’ve never been to prison, man, still know what it is
To break free, no, no, no (Yeah)
Now I live my vision plan, no need to hallucinate
(Ah-ah, nah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
These niggas been slipping, man, I think they gon’ make me angry
If they would’ve listened I coulda kept my cool today
Evil got me tripping, man, I don’t think that you can say
No, no, no
You’re in my position, man, you just couldn’t hit the brakes
[Verse 2: Raekwon]
I can’t believe it, word on the streets one of my soldiers
Talking to them alphabet boys, my first reaction
Is to find out who, where, and why
Put the word out and bring ‘em to me now, but keep him alive
Put some bread on his head and make sure he arrive
'Cause this is something I ain’t tolerating, plus I’m getting impatient
I’m fiending to break him, for real, boy, I’m salivating
My phone rung, it’s after ten o’clock sharp
They said they had ‘em in one of my warehouses by the dock
Jumped in the Benz with a ill look, no grin
With a steel hook, I’m about to do this coward in
When I got there, indeed, he was already tied up
Pillow case on his head and the blood stains dried up
The moment I been waiting for is finally here
I get to see who done betrayed me, snatched the pillow case
Off his wig and told him, "Yeah, now it's time to face me"
Who I seen? My little niece boyfriend I seen
He begging me not to kill him, I told him I gotta
As I poured the gasoline, I thought about my little niece
I know she love him, but he a snail, he tried to put
Shallah up in jail, take me from my wife and kids
Why should I spare this maggot life to live?
Man, it is what it is, he chose to play this game
I lit the match and watched his frame go up in flames
[Bridge: Allan Kingdom]
Get emotion, we in motion
Make commotion, I can feel
How we roll on, keep it going
Let it go out, take the wheel
So open your eyes, I'm amazed, I know
So open your eyes to the things I know
We rode it for life, put the game on me
If we don't get it right, put the blame on me
[Verse 3: Allan Kingdom]
Guess again
Thought that you could pull the wool over a veteran
I would pull the trigger but I'm thinking that it's better I, better I
Burn you like a sinner, let me share the light, share the light (Yeah)
Gasoline, pour it in my tank, now it's absorbing in your skin
Man, this fool is dimmer
And I wish she had a better mind, better mind
Where you talking now, you were regretting mind, get it right
I been cutting loose ends, why your lips so loose talking?
I could fuck with new friends too
Gotta get it with that new star again
I could be a nuisance
But not if you use caution
Been committin' new sins, true
It’s time we write some new commandments

Gabry thank you for Blue! That song was my childhood! I wish you nothing but health and happiness x

I just watched the documentary about your song! I've had a connection to your song since early childhood, and when I was only 12 years old I used the lyrics of this song to describe my depression to my parents for the first time. It helped them to understand what I was going through and now after therapy and antidepressants I'm feeling so much better. Thank you, your music helped me get through a tough time in my life 💙 I'm no longer blue!
