The Presets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Am I pleased to meet ya
Picture from the people
Something I got to teach ya
Ooh crack
You're quite the creature
Girl from the creature feature
Thinking so nasty
Just got me feeling so nasty
Ooh pop
Take you from the 80's
Bimbos rock the latex
Dingos catch the babies
Ooh stop
Look we're ready to rumble
Girlfriend can you show me
The way that the cookie crumbles
Thinking so nasty
Just got me feeling so na
Keep it rocking baby, don't try to hide it, no
Give me something and I won't try to fight it, no
All the troubles in my mind they don't feel so bad
When you got me in your palm slide it in your hands
Ooh snap
Girls got to eat ya
Cookin' I got to T-bone
Hungry I need to feed her
Ooh chnn
Touched quite a female
Checked all the styles she show
Chick don't reply to email
Thinking so nasty
Just got me feeling so na
Keep it rocking baby, don't try to hide it, no
Give me something and I won't try to fight it, no
All the troubles in my mind they don't feel so bad
When you got me in your palm slide it in your hands
Keep it pumping baby, don't try to hide it, no
Give me something and I won't try to fight it girl
All the problem in the world I don't understand
When you got me in your arms slide it in your hands
Yippiyo-ay
When you wear a smile
Yippiyo-ay
When you rock a frown
Yippiyo-ay
When you throw one off
Yippiyo-ay
When you coming round
Yippiyo-ay
When I'm feeling bad
Yippiyo-ay
When I'm feeling sad
Yippiyo-ay
No, it ain't so bad
Yippiyo-ay
When I'm in your hands
Keep it rocking baby, don't try to hide it, no
Give me something and I won't try to fight it, no
All the troubles in my mind they don't feel so bad
When you got me in your palm slide it in your hands
Keep it pumping baby, don't try to hide it, no
Give me something and I won't try to fight it girl
All the problem in the world I don't understand
When you got me in your arms slide it in your hands
Keep it rocking baby, don't try to hide it, no
(Yippiyo-ay)
Give me something and I won't try to fight it, no
(Yippiyo-ay)
All the troubles in my mind they don't feel so bad

The song "Yippiyo-Ay" by The Presets is about the singer's sexual attraction to a woman. The lyrics use a lot of sexual language and innuendos, making it clear that the singer is thinking "nasty" thoughts about this woman. He describes her as a "creature" and "tasty," and says he wants to "eat her." He also references pop culture from the 80s, such as bimbos in latex and dingos catching babies. Overall, the song is about giving in to sexual desires and enjoying the moment.
Interestingly, the chorus of the song ("Yippiyo-Ay") doesn't seem to have anything to do with the rest of the lyrics. It's unclear what the phrase means or why it's included in the song. The song's music video features a woman dancing around in various outfits, which appears to tie in with the pop culture references in the lyrics.

A celebratory expression of feeling good or excited
When you wear a smile
When you're happy and positive
When you rock a frown
When you're feeling negative or unhappy
When you throw one off
When you're acting impulsively or wildly
When you coming round
When you're spending time with me
When I'm feeling bad
When I'm experiencing negative emotions
When I'm feeling sad
When I'm feeling unhappy
No, it ain't so bad
It's not as bad as it seems
When I'm in your hands
When I'm under your control or influence
Keep it pumping baby, don't try to hide it, no
Let's keep going and don't hold back
All the problem in the world I don't understand
I don't comprehend the issues in the world
When you got me in your arms slide it in your hands
When you hold me, it feels satisfying and fulfilling
