Blurred Lines
Pharrell/Robin Thicke/T.I. Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey
A greeting to the listener

Hey, hey, hey
A continuation of the greeting

Hey, hey, hey
A final repetition of the greeting

If you can't hear, what I'm tryna say
If you cannot comprehend my message

If you can't read, from the same page
If we do not share the same thoughts

Maybe I'm going deaf
Perhaps I am losing my hearing

Maybe I'm going blind
Perhaps I am losing my sight

Maybe I'm out of my mind
Perhaps I am losing my sanity

OK, now he was close
The artist speaks of a previous attempt that was almost successful

Tried to domesticate you
The person tried to make the artist more civilized

But you're an animal
But the singer is a wild person by nature

Baby, it's in your nature
Being wild is a part of the artist's identity

Just let me liberate you
Allow the singer to free you from the confines of civilization

You don't need no papers
You do not need permission to be free

That man is not your mate
The person you are with is not compatible with you

And that's why I'm gon' take you
That's why the artist will take you instead

Good girl!
A compliment to the listener

I know you want it
The singer believes the listener desires it

Can't let it get past me
The singer cannot let an opportunity pass by

Me fall from plastic
The artist cannot pretend to be someone they are not

Talk about getting blasted
The artist prefers being bold and adventurous

I hate these blurred lines!
The artist dislikes the grey areas

The way you grab me
The singer appreciates the listener's touch

Must wanna get nasty
The artist infers that the listener desires something more explicit

Go ahead, get at me
Encouragement for the listener to be more daring

What do they make dreams for
Questioning the purpose of dreams

When you got them jeans on
Suggesting that the listener looks attractive in jeans

What do we need steam for
Questioning the need for steam

You the hottest bitch in this place!
A high compliment to the listener

I feel so lucky
Feeling fortunate for the listener's attention

You wanna hug me
The singer believes the listener wants to be close

What rhymes with hug me?
The artist is playfully teasing the listener

One thing I ask of you
A request made by the artist

Lemme be the one you bring that ass up to
Asking to be the recipient of the listener's attention

From Malibu to Paris, boo
The singer is willing to travel anywhere for the listener

Had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you
Comparing the listener to someone else who is inferior

So, hit me up when you passin' through
Asking to see the listener again in the future

I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Implying that the singer can provide a very satisfying experience

Swag on 'em even when you dress casual
The singer has style and confidence regardless of attire

I mean, it's almost unbearable
The artist's attractiveness is almost unbearable

Honey you not there when I'm
The artist is focused on the listener, not someone else

At the bar side let you have me by
The singer will be available for the listener

Nothin' like your last guy, he too square for you
Comparing the listener's previous relationship to the current one

He don't smack that ass and pull your hair for you
Saying the previous partner wasn't willing to be adventurous

So I'm just watchin' and waitin'
The artist is waiting for the listener's signal

For you to salute the truly pimpin'
Hoping the listener will appreciate the artist's confidence and charm

Not many women can refuse this pimpin'
Suggesting that few women could resist the singer's appeal

I'm a nice guy, but don't get confused, you git'n it!
Reassuring the listener that the artist cares about them, but is still interested in a physical relationship

Shake your rump
Asking the listener to dance provocatively

Get down
Asking the listener to lower themselves sexually

Get up
Asking the listener to stand up to dance or have sex

Do it like it hurt, like it hurt
Asking the listener to act as if they enjoy being hurt during sex

What, you don't like work?
The artist is wondering if the listener is too lazy to fully participate in sex

Baby, can you breathe?
Checking if the listener is comfortable

I got this from Jamaica
Referring to a sexual enhancement product from Jamaica

It always works for me
The artist has used this product successfully in the past

Dakota to Decatur
The artist is willing to travel anywhere for the listener

No more pretending
The artist wants the listener to be genuine with themselves

Cause now your winning
The listener is now succeeding in satisfying the singer

Here's our beginning
This marks a new beginning for the relationship

I always wanted a
The singer has always desired something undefined

Good girl!
A compliment to the listener

I know you want it
The singer believes the listener desires it

Can't let it get past me
The artist cannot let an opportunity pass by

Me fall from plastic
The artist cannot pretend to be someone they are not

Talk about getting blasted
The singer prefers being bold and adventurous

I hate these blurred lines!
The singer dislikes the grey areas

The way you grab me
The artist appreciates the listener's touch

Must wanna get nasty
The artist infers that the listener desires something more explicit

Go ahead, get at me
Encouragement for the listener to be more daring

Everybody get up
Asking everyone to stand up and dance

Everybody get up
A repetition of the command to stand up and dance

Hey, hey, hey
A final greeting to the listener
