Groove Is In The Heart

Deee-Lite

We're going to dance
We're going to dance
We're going to dance and have some fun
Dig

The chills that you spill up my back
Keep me filled with satisfaction when we're done
Satisfaction of what's to come
I couldn't ask for another
No, I couldn't ask for another (you know that's right)

Your groove, I do deeply dig
No walls, only the bridge, my supper dish
My succotash wish (sing it, baby)
I couldn't ask for another (uh huh, uh huh)
No, I couldn't ask for another

Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart (astronomical)
Groove is in the heart (hit me)

Watch out
The depth of hula groove
Moves us to the Nth hoop
We're gonna groove to Horton Hears a Who-who
I couldn't ask for another
No, I couldn't ask for another

DJ Soul was on a roll
I've been told he can't be sold
He's not vicious or malicious
Just de-lovely and delicious
I couldn't ask for another

Some looks in this torso (yeah)
Hot, got a deal, you wanna know (wanna know)
Delightful, truly delightful (lightful)
Makin' it, doin' it 'specially at show (show)
Feeling kinda high like a Hendrix haze (haze)
Music makes motion, moves like a maze (maze)
All inside of me (side), heart especially (yeah)
Hilt of the rhythm, where I wanna be (c'mon)
Flowin', glowin' with electric eyes
You dip to the dive, baby, you'll realize (yeah)
Baby, you'll see the funky side of me
Baby, you'll see that rhythm is the key
Get, get with it, with it
Can't can't quit it, quit it
Stomp on the stoop when I hear a funk loop
Playing Pied Piper, follow what's true
Baby, just sing about the groove (sing it)

Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart

One, two, three
Blow them horns along
Groove is in your heart

Groove is in the heart (yeah)
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart

Hahaha, c'mon, y'all deep
Y'all are crazy, man

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard

Battle Royale
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
