Truth or Dare
Hard-E Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm on the dance floor burning up
Music, turn it up
Baby, I'm
Real hot so is it my turn to touch you
Baby you
Look like you're buzzin' on ex with 3D effects
Baby, you
Look like you have no clue of what comes next
Me and my dogs will be there
Tell your girls prepare to share
We'll play the dancing truth or dare
If someone's standing there, stare say
"Hey baby, what's your name?"
"Don't stand looking insane?"
"Do you want to ride the train?"
Welcome to the fast lane
If you're in love beware
'Cause these people they don't care
All hands in the air
This is what we call truth or dare

I am the one with the brightest hair, leather I don't care
Baby, I
Don't ever want to take the shirt off
That's my dare
You got a girl but you're touching me like you don't care
Baby, you
Do you, but just don't get caught out there

Me and my girls will be there
Tell your boys prepare to share
We'll play the dancing truth or dare
If someone's standing there, stare say
"Hey, baby what's your name?"
"Don't stand looking insane"
"Do you want to ride the train"
Welcome to the fast lane
If you're in love beware
'Cause these people they don't care
All hands in the air
This is what we call truth or dare

Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on come on
Baby, shake it up

Man, I got tens surrounding me
Hounding me
Center of attention
A riot it's bound to be
Though I'm in the middle
My jewels you're bound to see
In a pool of women
All of them drowning me
I'm ho poppin', flip floppin', ho, hop in
Now her head in my lap boppin'
I ain't one to care
I ain't used to fair
Baby, you can keep the truth
Truth or dare

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (ohh, ayy)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (ooh, ooh, ooh-woo, hey, yeah)
Yeah, yeah

Me and my dogs will be there, tell your girls prepare to share
Me and my girls will be there, tell your boys prepare to share
We'll play the dancing truth or dare
If someone's standing there, stare say
"Hey baby, what's your name?"
"Don't stand looking insane?"
"Do you want to ride the train?"
Welcome to the fast lane
If you're in love beware
'Cause these people they don't care
All hands in the air
This is what we call truth or dare

Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up
Come on, come on
Baby, shake it up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (N.E.r.d, Kelis, and love & peace for the world)
(For the world to see)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh




Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
