Everybody get up

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey (ah)
Hey, hey, hey (woo)

If you can't hear, what I'm tryna say (hey girl, come here)
If you can't read, from the same page
Maybe I'm going deaf (hey, hey, hey)
Maybe I'm going blind (hey, hey, hey)
Maybe I'm out of my mind (hey, hey, hey)
Everybody get up

Okay, now he was close
Tried to domesticate you
But you're an animal
Baby, it's in your nature (meow)
Just let me liberate you (hey, hey, hey)
You don't need no papers (hey, hey, hey)
That man is not your maker (hey, hey, hey)
And that's why I'm gon' take you (everybody get up)

Good girl
I know you want it (hey)
I know you want it
I know you want it
You're a good girl (oh yeah)
Can't let it get past me (oh yeah)
You're far from plastic (alright)
Talkin' about getting blasted
I hate these blurred lines
I know you want it (hey)
I know you want it (oh, oh, yeah yeah)
I know you want it
But you're a good girl (hey)
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty (hey, hey, hey)
Go ahead, get at me
Everybody get up (come on)

What do they make dreams for?
When you got them jeans on? (Why?)
What do we need steam for?
You the hottest bitch in this place
I feel so lucky (hey, hey, hey)
You wanna hug me (hey, hey, hey)
What rhymes with hug me? (Hey, hey, hey)
Hey (everybody get up)

Okay, now he was close

Must wanna get nasty (lego) (ay say Rob)
Go ahead, get at me (let me holla at 'em real quick)

One thing I ask of you (okay)
Let me be the one you back that ass up to (come on)
Go from Malibu to Paris, boo (yeah)
Had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you (uh-uh, ey)
So, hit me up when you passin' through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Swag on 'em even when you dress casual (oh, oh, oh)
I mean, it's almost unbearable (ey, ey, ey, ey) (everybody get up)
In a hundred years not dare would I
Pull a Pharcyde, let you pass me by (uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh)
Nothin' like your last guy, he too square for you
He don't smack that ass and pull your hair for you (like that)
So I'm just watchin' (just watchin') and waitin' (and waitin')
For you to salute the true big pimpin'
Not many women can refuse this pimpin' (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
I'm a nice guy, but don't get confused, get pimpin' (everybody get up)

Shake your rump
Get down
Get up
Do it like it hurt
Like it hurt
What, you don't like work?
Hey (everybody get up)

Baby, can you breathe?
I got this from Jamaica
It always works for me
Dakota to Decatur (uh huh)
No more pretending (hey, hey, hey) (uh huh)
'Cause now your winning (hey, hey, hey) (uh huh)
Here's our beginning (hey, hey, hey) (uh huh) (uh)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Blurred Lines" by T.I., Robin Thicke, and Pharrell have caused controversy due to their suggestive and objectifying nature towards women. The song is about a man who is attracted to a woman who is free-spirited and wild. He claims to want to "liberate" her and suggests that she does not need the approval of anyone else to live her life the way she wants to. The lyrics are accompanied by a catchy beat that has made the song popular.


The chorus of the song begins with the repeated phrase "Everybody get up," which encourages people to dance and have fun. The lyrics then address the woman directly, questioning whether she can hear or read what he's saying. He suggests that she doesn't need anyone else's permission to be free and that he wants to "liberate" her from the constraints of society. The lyrics are very suggestive and objectify the woman's body, which has been a source of controversy.
