NO WAY
Freak Power Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Sweaty belle rings on a door across the floor,
Friendly big neck motherf*ckers hang out by the door,
The moment when your body finally gets its own mind,
Waking up to realise that love has made you blind,
No Way!
Uhh Uhh, No Way!

Dropping your first one to the sound of Carl Cox,
Freaking while ya tweaking to the hard hard knocks,
Sticky bottle blond's got big big eyes,
She woofs in the toilet reached an after course of highs,
I said No Way!
Uhh Uhh, No Way!

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

The first time you ever heard that big big tune,
Brotherly and sisterly large love in the room,
Wiggin out the puppy to Felix The House Cat,
After-hours sessions in an after-hours flat,
I said No Way!
Uhh Uhh, No Way!

Being just a part of one big famil-E,
Wondering why you ever ever ever watched TV,
That funny little noise gets a ride home in your head,
Meanwhile your still laughing at some thing he just said,
He said No Way!
Uhh No Way

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
In the, in the, in the, in the,
In the, in the, in the, in the,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,

Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,




Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air,
Throw your hands in the air, in the air, in the air.

This song would have been a perfect fit for Sega’s Jet Set Radio and its sequel, Jet Set Radio Future. It even has the “Let’s Get Scratchin’!” part at the beginning!
