Get Loose
The D4 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nothing to do in the city
Can't get nothing to eat it's only 2am
All the girls they look at me funny
They don't know nothing and I gotta get out

Get up get out get loose
Get up get out get loose
Get up get out get loose

Monkeys on my TV
Speak to beggars on a Friday night
I got the blues walking all over my streets
I keep my head on I keep shaking no, I gotta get out!

Get up get out get loose
Get up get out get loose

Get loose!

Get up get out get loose
Get up get out get loose (Loose)
Get up get out get loose (Loose)

Get up get out get loose (Loose)
Get up get out get loose (Loose)
Get up get out get loose (Loose)





Get up get out get loose (Loose)
Get up get out get loose
