Their music is best described as funk rock, with various other influences, including hip hop, R&B, soul, alternative rock, and blues.

Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo met in Virginia Beach, Virginia at the ages of 12 at a summer camp for musicians, which they both disliked. They spent their free time making beats and performing in groups with fellow childhood friend Timbaland. Shay Haley began performing with Williams and Hugo in high school. After watching the duo perform at a high school talent show, Teddy Riley, a musician and producer, signed Williams and Hugo in 1992. After producing songs for several artists throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, the production duo formed N.E.R.D in 2001 as a side project.

Hello
Hey mom, it's me Mom
Can't tell you where I sleep Mom
'Cause that's where we be Mom
Sometimes I steal and cheat Mom
Yes, I get enough to eat Mom
Mom, can you listen to me?
No, I don't mess with guns

Yes, in my travels I have seen one
No being a runaway is no fun
But house rules sure were not fun
Something told me to

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
And I don't care now
And I don't
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
'Cause we don't get out

Fuck this shit right now, I'm checking out

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump

Hey Dad, I'm ok Dad, that's what you say Dad
I never could obey Dad
You would have bad days Dad
And you would make me pay Dad
Make me feel way sad
Punk rock, tattoos, leather jacket
Good grades don't come with that package
Yes, y'all I would love to match it
But names just make it harder to hack it by

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of N.E.R.D's song, Jump, reveal the story of a runaway who is struggling to find his place in society. The song provides insights into the challenges, doubts, and desires that the runaway has as he searches for a sense of purpose and belonging. In the first verse, the singer talks to his mom, sharing with her the lifestyle that he has been forced to adopt, which includes theft and deceit. Although he is getting enough to eat, he is unhappy, and something tells him to jump.

The second verse is a conversation with the singer's dad, where he expresses his independence, and dissatisfaction with his father's disciplinary ways. He is seen as a rebel with tattoos and a leather jacket, which contrasts with good grades that his father might have preferred. The whole song seems to revolve around the notion of "checking out" - essentially finding the need to leave or run away from all the issues of the modern world. The bridge then takes a sudden turn, referencing wealth, NASA, and the Magna Charta. The singer warns the listener not to let teachers or NASA teach them that we are alone in the universe and should seek other alternatives.

The song then ends with the singer longing for things to be different as he jumps out of a window while carrying a space suit made by the BBC. The lyrics touch on themes such as teenage rebellion, societal pressures, dissatisfaction with the status quo, and escapism. It is a tale of someone who has had enough and just wants to check out.

This song is about doing what you want no matter who stands in your way so when he says "jump jump!" that's him making the first step towards his dream and talks about how life is more than ....just following what teachers and parents think is the right choice to do in life. Instead he becomes a rebel to his parents and teachers, so don't let teachers teach you about wealth to death maybe there is something else(your dream). Wealth is of the heart and mind not the pocket- Pharrell Williams

I look up the lyrics for this song all the time, and that one line from Pharrell (during the last chorus line with "jump" being repeated) has been said to say: "I'm told it's neither". However, every time I hear it, I can clearly hear him saying more than that, even if he sounds partially faded out (especially when it's being overpowered by the word "jump" repeatedly). It sounds like the line he's actually saying is: "I'm told it's never too late". Did anyone else get that? If not, it's cool I was just wondering. lol

VideoGameStupid LC

Damn I hear it too now! In one of the other verses it sounds like he is saying "Wish I had it my way". Definitely couldn't decipher the other ones besides from the one you already stated.

madden verse was getting it hey dad, okay dad, thats what you say dad, i never could obey dad. you would have bad days dad, and you would make me pay dad, make me feel way sad. punk rock, tattoos, thread and jacket, good grace dont come with that package. yes y'all, i would love to match it, but names just make it harder to hack it by! my favorite part!!!!
