Lucky In Love
Smooth Jazz Band Lyrics

Yes
Affirmative response to an unknown statement

It's so crazy right now
The current situation is overwhelming

Most incredibly, it's ya girl, B
Beyonce is performing

It's ya boy, young
Jay-Z is performing

You ready?
Asking if the audience is ready for their performance

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh, no, no
Exclamation of surprise

Yeah, history in the making
This performance is significant

Part two--it's so crazy right now
There is a continuation of something overwhelming

I look and stare so deep in your eyes
Describing an intimate moment of eye contact

I touch on you more and more every time
The physical connection between two people is increasing

When you leave, I'm begging you not to go
Expressing a desire for the other person to stay

Call your name two or three times in a row
Repetition of calling the other person's name

Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
Acknowledging the difficulty of explaining the situation

How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
The singer's pride is an obstacle to acknowledging their feelings

'Cause I know I don't understand
The singer doesn't fully comprehend their feelings

Just how your love can do what no one else can
The love between the two people is unique

Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's
The love of the other person is overwhelming and defining

Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss
Desire for contact from the other person

Got me hoping you'll save me right now
Desire for rescue or safety from the other person

Looking so crazy in love's
The artist's appearance conveys their intense love

When I talk to my friends so quietly
Describing the artist's conversations with their friends

Who he think he is? Look at what you did to me
The artist's friends are questioning the other person's impact on them

Tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress
The other person accepts the Speaker as they are without needing material items

If you ain't there, ain't nobody else to impress
The artist is content solely impressing the other person

It's the way that you know what I thought I knew
The other person reveals something new to the singer

It's the beat my heart skips when I'm with you
Describing physical sensation when with the other person

But I still don't understand
The singer still doesn't comprehend their feelings

Check it, let's go
Introducing a change in the music

Young 'Hov, y'all know when the flow is loco
Jay-Z's performative moniker

Young B and the R-O-C, uh oh, (oh)
Performative moniker for Beyonce and music label Rockefeller Records

Ol' G, big homey, the one and only
Aged rapper

Stick bony, but the pocket is fat like Tony--Soprano (oh no)
Slim yet wealthy appearance reference

The ROC handle like Van Axel
The record company handles like a high-end car

I shake phonies, man; you can't get next to
Joke about avoiding fake people

The genuine article; I do not sing though
Jay-Z is the real deal, despite not being a singer

I sling though; if anything, I bling yo
Jay-Z likes to show off his material success

A star like Ringo, roll like a green beret
Comparison of Jay Z to a famous Beatle and a highly skilled military member

Crazy bring ya whole set
Excitement for the upcoming performance with the help of audience participation

Jay Z in the range, crazy and deranged
Jay-Z's wealth and celebrity are overwhelming

They can't figure him out; they like, "hey, is he insane?"
People speculate about Jay-Z's mental health

Yes, sir, I'm cut from a different cloth
Jay-Z sees himself as unique

My texture is the best fur, chinchilla
Jay-Z perceives himself as luxurious

I been iller than chain smokers
Jay-Z is the best in the game

How you think I got the name Hova?
Jay-Z explains the origin of his stage name

I been realer; the game's over
Jay-Z thinks he has authenticity that nobody can top

Fall back, young; ever since I made the change over
Jay-Z is telling younger people to step back and respect him since he made it successfully

To platinum the game's been wrap, one
Jay-Z has achieved massive success in the music industry

Got me looking so crazy, my baby
The other person's impact on speaker is significant

I'm not myself; lately I'm foolish, I don't do this
The irresistible influence of love can cloud judgement

I've been playing myself; baby, I don't care
Love has made the singer careless

'Cause your love's got the best of me
Speaker acknowledges that they are vulnerable to the other person's love

And, baby, you're making a fool of me
The other person has the artist acting in unexpected ways

You got me sprung and I don't care who sees
The artist is completely infatuated with the other person

'Cause, baby, you got me, you got me so crazy, baby
The other person has made the singer crazy in love

Hey
Expression of excitement or enthusiasm
