MAYA was an Italian-American dance music group consisting of Italian music producers Mario Fargetta & Alex Farolfi, and American singer Maya Days. Later, Giuliano Saglia and GianLuca Mensi would join the project. In 1998, they became famous for their debut single "Feel It", a British number one hit taken from the album "Fabulous". "Feel it" was written by the American team of Steve Gittelman and Jim Dyke and relied heavily on a sample of the Jackson Five hit "Can You Feel It". The album spawned two more singles, "If You Buy This Record Your Life Will Be Better" (based on a sample from Madonna's Material Girl), and the Italy-only release "Step Out", which was later included as a B-side on their fourth and final single, "Hammer to the Heart". The producers also used The Tamperer alias to produce and remix other artists, such as Crystal Waters.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You got it on the side
A little one night thing
I've bought it over and it's time I will forgive you
Well I'm not letting go
But don't forget I know
You made your bed and she was in it, no no no

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

Well, I'm not blaming you
But she's still hangin' 'round
And she's so crazy, tell you now I just don't trust her
She thinks she's right on time
But I think she crossed the line
And I'm ready for the ride
I'm ready if it's fighting time

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

Overall Meaning

The Tamperer Maya's song "Feel It" is a dance-pop song that talks about the pain of being betrayed in a relationship. The opening lines suggest that the singer has been cheated on by their partner, who had a "little one night thing" on the side. Despite feeling hurt, the singer acknowledges that they are not ready to let go of the relationship just yet.

However, the chorus of the song is where things get interesting. The singer asks, "What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?" The lyrics suggest that the singer wants to see the person their partner cheated on them with suffer some kind of physical damage or punishment. The line is repetitive, indicating that the singer is fixated on this disturbing thought.

In the second verse, the singer notes that the other woman is "still hangin' 'round" and describes her as "crazy." The singer does not trust her and believes she has crossed a line. The singer is ready for a fight if necessary, but is still holding on to the relationship despite the pain.

Overall, the song is a catchy, upbeat tune with dark undertones. It speaks to the conflicting emotions of wanting to hold on to a failed relationship while also wanting to see those who caused the pain suffer.

Line by Line Meaning

You got it on the side
You cheated on me with someone else

A little one night thing
It was just a brief affair

I've bought it over and it's time I will forgive you
I'm willing to forgive you and move on

Well I'm not letting go
I won't let this go easily

But don't forget I know
I know what you did

You made your bed and she was in it, no no no
You have to deal with the consequences of your actions

What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What will happen to her when she has to face the consequences of her actions?

Well, I'm not blaming you
I don't entirely blame you for what happened

But she's still hangin' 'round
She's still trying to be a part of this

And she's so crazy, tell you now I just don't trust her
I don't trust her and I think she's manipulative and unstable

She thinks she's right on time
She thinks she can still be a part of our lives

But I think she crossed the line
I think she's gone too far and needs to stay away

And I'm ready for the ride
I'm prepared for whatever is coming

I'm ready if it's fighting time
I'm ready to fight for what's right
