I've got some news for you
Fembots (fembots) have feelings too
You split my heart in two
Now what you gonna do

(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(I'm hi-tech baby)

Fresh out the box the latest model
Generator running on full throttle
can I get a fuel up? hit the bottle
(reboot)
I got a lotta automatic booty applications
Got a C.P.U maxed out sensation
Looking for a joy to man my station
(reboot)
rock-rock the nation
(rock it, baby)

I've got some news for you
Fembot have feelings too
You split my heart in two
Now what ya gonna do
(and scan me)

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in dragging position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
Bbb-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition

My superbrains are binary
Circuitry and mainframe tens-filled here
I'm sipping propane topped with a cherry
(reboot)
In fact i'm a very scientifically advanced hot mama
Artificially discreet no drama
Digitally chic titanium mama
(reboot)
Ring the alarm-a

I've got some news for you (uh uh)
Fembots have feelings too (you know)
you split my heart in two
Now what you gonna do
(here we go)

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in dragging position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
bbb-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition

(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)

Once you gone tech you never ever goin back
I got an inter access code upon the back of ma neck
Initiating slut mode of space cadets and dexters
A calculator in my pocket, got you all in check

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in dragging position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
bbb-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in dragging position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
bbb-burn out, baby

My drinking is killing me
K-k-kill

My heels are killing me
My shopping's killing me

My ego is killing me
Can't sleep, it's killing me
My label's killing me
Kick drum

My landlord's killing me

My boss is killing me
The TV is killing me
Your nagging is killing me
My boyfriend is killing me

My talking's killing me
Killing me
Killing me

Can't sleep, it's killing me
My dreams are killing me
The TV is killing me
My talking's killing me

Let go, you're killing me
Ease up, you're killing me
Calm down, you're killing me
My god, you're killing me

K-k-killing me

My drinking is killing me
My smoking is killing me
My head is killing me
My mind is killing me

Somebody said you got a new friend
Does she love you better than I can?
There's a big black sky over my town
I know where you're at, I bet she's around

Yeah, I know it's stupid
I just gotta see it for myself

I'm in the corner, watching you kiss her, ohhh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me, ohhh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home, oooo
I keep dancing on my own

I'm just gonna dance all night
I'm all messed up, I'm so out of line
Stilettos and broken bottles
I'm spinning around in circles

I'm in the corner, watching you kiss her, ohhh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me, ohhh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home
I keep dancing on my own
I keep dancing on my own

So far away, but still so near
The lights go on, the music dies
But you don't see me standing here
I just came to say goodbye

I'm in the corner, watching you kiss her, ohh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home
I keep dancing on my own

I'm in the corner, watching you kiss her, ohhh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me, ohhh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home
I keep dancing on my own
I keep dancing on my own.

. . .


I'm going backwards through time at the speed of light
I'm yours, you're mine, two satellites
Not alone
No, we're not alone

A freeze-frame of your eye in the strobelight
Sweat dripping down from your brow, hold tight
Don't let go
Don't you let me go

And I never was smart with love
I let the bad ones in and the good ones go
But I'm gonna love you like I've never been hurt before
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore
And I'm indestructible

Hands up in the air like we don't care
We're shooting deep into space
And the lasers split the dark
Cut right through the dark

It's just us, we ignore the crowd dancing
Fall to the floor
Beats in my heart
Put your hands on my heart

And I never was smart with love
I let the bad ones in and the good ones go
But I'm gonna love you like I've never been hurt before
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore
Ooh and I'm gonna love you like
Like I've never been hurt before
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore
And I'm indestructible

And I never was smart with love
I let the bad ones in and the good ones go
But I'm gonna love you like I've never been hurt before
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore
Ooh and I'm gonna love you like
Like I've never been hurt before
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore
And I'm indestructible

Hey, what did I do?
Can't believe the fit I just threw
Stupid
Wanted the reaction

I remember the words
How I said them, so they would hurt
But then, I regret my actions

If I could press rewind
Rewind the take
Redefine the line
We make mistakes
Take it back in time,
Just one day ... hey

So all I need is a time machine
A one way track cause
I'm taking it back, taking it back
All I want is a DeLorean
If I could go just like that
I'll be taking it back, taking it back

Yeah who's laughing now?
Didn't think you'd actually go
Stupid
Me and all my bitching

Second thoughts and regrets
gonna alter leading your sets but then
This ain't science fiction

If I could press rewind
Rewind the take
Redefine the line
We make mistakes
Take it back in time,
Just one day ... hey

So all I need is a time machine
A one way track cause
I'm taking it back, taking it back
All I want is a DeLorean
If I could go just like that
I'll be taking it back, taking it back

So all I need is a time machine
A one way track cause
I'm taking it back, taking it back
All I want is a DeLorean
If I could go just like that
I'll be taking it back, taking it back

If you're looking for love
Get a heart made of steel 'cus you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love
It'll hurt you for real, don't you know that love kills

If you're looking for love
Get a heart made of steel 'cus you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love
It'll hurt you for real, don't you know that love kills

Protect yourself, 'cus you'll wreck yourself
In this cold, hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Protect yourself, 'cus you'll wreck yourself
In this cold, hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Get a heart made of steel 'cus you know that love kills
Don't go messing with love
It'll hurt you for real, don't you know that love kills

Mm, and I know when you're in too deep you still think of me, sometimes
Stockholm syndrome and misery, there's a penalty for love crimes

Protect yourself, 'cus you'll wreck yourself
In this cold, hard world, so check yourself
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
'Til that one kind soul reveals itself

Protect yourself, 'cus you'll wreck yourself

You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
In this cold, hard world, don't you know that love kills

Protect yourself, 'cus you'll wreck yourself
In this cold, hard world, 'cus you know that love kills
You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself
In this cold, hard world, don't you know that love kills

Will you tell me once again
How we're gonna be just friends
If you're for real and not pretend
Then guess you can hang with me
You can hang with me

When my patience's wearin' thin
When I'm ready to give in
Will you pick me up again
- Then I guess you can hang with me
You can hang with me

And if you do me right
I'm gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I'm gonna confide in you
I know what's on your mind
there will be time for that too
if you hang with me
hang with me

Just don't fall
recklessly, headlessly in love with me
Cause its gonna be
All heartbreak
blissfully painful and insanity
if we agree

Oh you can hang with me

When you see me drift astray
outta touch and outta place
will you tell me to my face?
then I guess you can hang with me

And if you do me right
I'm gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I'm gonna confide in you
I know what's on your mind
there will be time for that too
if you hang with me
hang with me

Just don't fall
recklessly, headlessly in love with me
Cause its gonna be
All heartbreak
blissfully painful and insanity
if we agree you can hang with me

Just don't fall
recklessly, headlessly in love with me
Cause its gonna be
All heartbreak
blissfully painful and insanity
if we agree

Oh you can hang with me
Hang with me

Call your girlfriend
It's time you had the talk
Give your reasons
Say it's not her fault
But you just found somebody new

Tell her not to get upset, second-guessing everything you said and done
And then when she gets upset tell her how you never mean to hurt no one
Then you tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to love again
And it won't make sense right now but you're still her friend
And then you let her down easy

Call your girlfriend
It's time you had the talk
Give your reasons
Say it's not her fault
But you just met somebody new

Don't you tell her how I give you something that you never even knew you missed
Don't you even try and explain how it's so different when we kiss
You tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to love again
And it won't make sense right now but you're still her friend
And then you let her down easy

Call your girlfriend
It's time you had the talk
Give your reasons
Say it's not her fault
But you just met somebody new
And now it's gonna be me and you

And you tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to love again
And it won't make sense right now but you're still her friend
And then you let her down easy

Call your girlfriend
It's time you had the talk
Give your reasons
Say it's not her fault

Call your girlfriend
It's time you had the talk
Give your reasons
Say it's not her fault
But you just met somebody new

None of these boys can dance
Not a single one of them stand a chance
All of them girls a mess
I've seen it all before, I'm not impressed

None of them get my sex
None of them move my intellect
None of them work for me
None of them make me feel anything

Step on it, step on it
Step on it, step on it

I'm so bored in this town
Take me away from here
Play some kind of new sound
Something true and sincere
I've got a little girl singing on repeat in my head
Take me far away from here

None of dem get my stance
None of dem do it like I can
None of these chicks got style
None of these drugs get me high

None of these beats are raw
None of these beats ever break the law
None of them kicks go boom
None of them bass lines fill the room

Step on it, step on it

I'm so bored in this town
Take me away from here
Play some kind of new sound
Something true and sincere
I've got a little girl singing on repeat in my head
Take me far away from here

I'm so bored in this town
Take me away from here
Play some kind of new sound
Something true and sincere
I've got a little girl singing on repeat in my head
Take me far away from here

Step on it, step on it

We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat

We dance to the beat of the continents shifting under our feet
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of a new, better, faster breed
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of radioactivity blocking the exits
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of false math and unrecognised genius
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of distorted knowledge passed on
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of a distant rumble
We dance to the beat
We dancing
And it's loud and proud
And it's loud and proud
And it's loud and proud

We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat

We dance to the beat of silent mutation
We dance to the beat of your brain not evolving fast enough
We dance to the beat of raw talent wasted
We dance to the beat of bad kissers clicking teeth
We dance to the beat of opportunity knocking
We dance to the beat of an eviction next door
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
Of another recycled rebellion
Of consolidating assets
Of another crowd losing it
Of your voice breaking up in static
Of suburbia burning
Of communication gone mad
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat

And we don't stop
And we don't stop
And we don't stop
And we don't stop
And we don't stop

We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
And we don't stop
And we don't stop

We dance to the beat of a billion charges of endorphin
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of a love lost and then won back
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of source code and conjuring
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat of gravity giving us a break
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance to the beat
We dance...

I've gone around the world and the seven seas
I'm cashin' six-figure checks in all currencies
It's like when I be tearin' it up in Paris
Motherfuckers parler on the m-i-c
It's all "ooh la la" and "ahh oui oui"
Sippin' vin blanc in our lingerie
Choppin' heads off with madame guillotine
Even the French know better than to fuck with me

Comment allez-vous Robyn, what it do
I'm in the UK (why?) got a show to do (uh-huh)
It's big Snoopy Dogg, check the catalog
I'm overseas gettin' cheese with this dialogue
I missed my plane to Spain so I'm stuck in Colonna
I'm sippin' Saronno with this chick named Ramona
She wants me to take a flick on her phone-ah
Then take her to my hotel room and then bone her

You know when in Rome I sat down with the Romans
Said "We need a black pope and she better be a woman"
There'll be no more celibacy
Even the Vatican knows not to fuck with me

You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better
You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better

We big-ballin' in Holland, Amsterdam my man
I got a table at the coffee shop
Where we like to spark a lot
Hangin' in the parking lot blowin' a bleezy
Easy fo sheezy deezy

I crashed a party with the Czar
Threw a molotov cocktail in the bar
And you know my style's revolutionary
Even the Russians know better than to fuck with me

You try to ban me, you can't stand me
Cuz I'm an outlaw
Black president livin' in the White House
Mr. B he wrote a letter to me
The FBI know better than to fuck with me

Yo, I was there at Watergate
You know I rigged my gear got the fuckers on tape
They put the mic in the hand of the wrong MC
Even the CIA knows not to fuck with me

You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better
You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better

Tell 'em Snoop, tell 'em like it is

I been there, in there, out there like that
Right back to the hood, a hundred Euro stacks
Shoot motherfuckers just on GP
LAPD know better than to fuck with me

I danced with the devil in Kathmandu
I came hummin' and blastin' with the boogaloo too
Now I declare most solemnly
The prince of darkness know better than to fuck with me

You know not what you know
Tell 'em what I'm in it for
Then I run up in it slow
Really though, silly ho
Yea spend a minute though
I blow an ounce and make you bounce
Just like a sixty-four

Now you know me I'm a woman of peace
I don't never take nothin' don't belong to me
I throw down and say "Whatever's gonna be, gonna be"
The whole industry knows not to fuck with me

You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better
You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better
You should know better
Y-You should know better
You should know better than to fuck with me
If you knew better you would do better

. . .


I take the bus to town
Sitting in the back and talk to no one
I got the high heels on
I go out dancing all by my own

People are pushing by
Somebody always tries to cut in line
Soon as I get inside
I loose myself in the blinding lights

Now what? your jaw has dropped
until the music stop, you know
I still run this thing like a dancehall queen
I really don't want no hassle (x2)

I got them hypnotized
I get another shout out on the mike
Keep me at all you like
I came to dance not to socialize

Rythm goes boom boom boom
Same thing drops with the *sound*
People all gather around
Rocking to the beat the queen will be crowned

Now what? your jaw has dropped
until the music stop, you know
I still run this thing like a dancehall queen
I really don't want no hassle (x2)

I go down like she wow
she wow wow wow
One my hips will slow like she wow
she wow wow wow (x2)

Now what? your jaw has dropped
until the music stop, you know
I still run this thing like a dancehall queen
I really don't want no hassle

. . .


It's all over like steps in the first snow
Something's been building up and it's gonna blow
My momma called me last night, she said what nothing else fits
Pick up the pieces and move on
I see the flashing lights, just can't make sense of the bits
It's like my mind is gone

I got … got to get …
Get my head back on
I got … got to get …
Myself together
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

I got … got to get …
Can't tell what's going wrong
I wish there's something could be done
Knock that cover
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

Can't stand to see you upset
But you already know
The more close it gets
The less I wanna go

I saw my brother last night
He said I know you too well
You can't pretend that's nothing wrong
I see the fuse that ignites, like I'm outside of myself
It's like my mind is gone

I got … got to get …
Get my head back on
I got … got to get …
Myself together
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

I got … got to get …
Can't tell what's going wrong
I wish there's something could be done
Knock that cover
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

My daddy put me aside
Like when I was a child
He said I trust you decide
On what you know is right
And for whatever it's worth,
I am on your side
There's no denying the mess
That I got us in
And I've been trying my best
Not to make a scene
Just can't make a sense of it all
It's like my mind is gone

I got … got to get …
Get my head back on
I got … got to get …
Myself together
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

I got … got to get …
Can't tell what's going wrong
I wish there's something could be done
Knock that cover
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

I got … got to get …
Can't tell what's going wrong
I wish there's something could be done
Knock that cover
When this hurt is gone
I got … got to get …
Myself together

It's gonna be OK

OK
OK

Hey little star, don't be afraid
We all fall apart and make mistakes
Don't you know nothing ever seem to make sense
You put your dancing shoes on and do it again
You know I believe it if you say you can

So when you feel like it's all pretend
Then you look into my eyes
Just say one true thing like you mean it
And, baby, just look into my eyes

The sun's gonna shine on all of us
We're all the same - stardust and stuff
You're just a little boy and I'm just a little girl
Programmed rebels in a cruel, cruel world
We never get what we deserve

So when you feel like it's all pretend
Then you look into my eyes
Just say one true thing like you mean it
And, baby, just look into my eyes

And though I bet you think it's better on the inside, there with them
We're better off outside looking back in
I know you think you're lost but you think again
When you look into my eyes

OK

Hey little star, come take my hand
You'll feel better tomorrow
Tomorrow I'm still your friend

So when you feel like it's all pretend
Then you look into my eyes
Just say one true thing like you mean it
And, baby, just look into my eyes

I bet you think it's better on the inside, there with them
We're better off outside looking back in
I know you think you're lost but you think again
When you look into my eyes

OK

Little star
I got you
I got you
You'll be OK
You'll be OK

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

You and me on the hood
On my car
Saturday night
Watching the stars [2x]

You and I
Shinning lights to what we are
Look at the sky
And I am never far

I can be right there next to you
No matter where in the world you are
I got you right here next to me
Forever connected through the stars

It's what we are...

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

The last train's gone
We walk through the night
The moon shines down
Like a spotlight [2x]

You and I
Shinning lights to what we are
Look at the sky
And I am never far

I can be right there next to you
No matter where in the world you are
I got you right here next to me
Forever connected through the stars

It's what we are...

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

(It's what we are)

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

I can be right there next to you
I can be right there next to you
Forever connected through the stars
It's what we are

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

We're superstars

You and me together -
Stars forever [4x]

Stars forever
