A deconstruction of lyrics
Okay, this is just funny. Music-Critic takes the lyrics of pop tunes and breaks them down in to what they really mean. Here's their take on Destiny Child's Bootylicious:
You gotta do much
better if you gone dance with me tonight
You gotta work your jelly if you gone dance with me tonight
Read my lips carefully if you like what you see
Move, groove, prove you can hang with me
By the looks I got you shook up and scared of me
Hook up your seatbelt, it's time for take off | I don't know where you learned to dance, but you're embarrassing both of us
Seriously, there are a lot of other guys I could be dancing with, so get it together
Now take your eyes off my cleavage long enough to pay attention to what I say
You're not going home with me unless you show me you can handle me on the dance floor
Oh no, am I being too forward? Am I more aggressive than you're used to?
If you think I'm getting a little freaky right now, just wait till I get you in bed |

I don't think you ready for this jelly
I don't think you ready for this jelly
I don't think you ready for this
'Cos my body too bootylicious for ya babe
I don't think you ready for this jelly
I don't think you ready for this jelly
I don't think you ready for this
'Cos my body too bootylicious for ya babe | So far, you've given me no reason to believe you're capable of living up to my sexual expectations
I've been with a lot of men, and you don't seem to stack up
But I'm going to lead you on all night, making you think you might have a chance, just so you'll keep buying me drinks
Of course, it's possible I'm just a little too full of myself |
Thanks to Brad for the tip.
