BUMP
Raven Symone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Too low
Turn it up some more
Too chill
To get us on the floor

Hot jam
Where's the volume at
Make it loud
Loud as it can get

You say
Bump up the groove
You say
808
Makes you move

So big
Walls start to shake
Come on
You like
All you can take

You say you wannna get a little bump in here
Shaking the room, give it the boom
Cmon
You say you wanna get a little bump in here
It's all good
You gotta listen when the girls say
Everybody get a little bump in here
Level to ten, bump it again
Cmon
Say you wannna get a little bump in here
It's all good
You gotta listen when the boys say

Phatt beat
Like to feel the drops
Dj
Never gonna stop

The heat is on
Turn it up some more
I know
What you're waiting for

You say
Bump up the jam
Push it
Loud as you can

So big
House starts to shake
Volume
Walls start to break

You say you wannna get a little bump in here
Shaking the room, give it the boom
Cmon
You say you wanna get a little bump in here
It's all good
You gotta listen when the girls say
Everybody get a little bump in here
Level to ten, bump it again
Cmon
Say you wannna get a little bump in here
It's all good
You gotta listen when the boys say

Bump it in the big ride...gotta get the party on
Ready for the good time...we'll be jammin all night long
Even in the head phones...gotta get it loud enough
Never keep it too low...put it on the big ones and pump it up





(Chorus)
