Shwayze - Crazy For You




Artist: Shwayze
Track: Crazy For You
Album: Let It Beat
Year: 2009

Time for a little hip hop again (or something vaguely hip-hop)! I was introduced to this song by a friend a few years back. It's a great feel-good track with fun lyrics, mellow vocals, and lazy guitar strumming. They have a bit of a reggae mixed with rock and a dash of hip-hop thrown in sound to their music.
My favorite line is "I wouldn't be late if I looked at the clock, but I'd rather spend time than buy a wrist watch."

LYRICS:

Okay! (Haha!) Oh!

I was born to rock, learned to walk in flip flops.
And I bought my clothes at the local thrift shop.
I wouldn't be late if I looked at the clock, 
But I'd rather spend time than buy a wrist watch.
Zip-lock, keep it fresh, red hot chili pep, dread lock rosta.
I was high when we met (I was high when we met)
But I remember everything from your eyes to your dress.
Sun rise on the east, but it sets on the west side.

Let the guitar play, yeah, let's vibe.
Forget the bad days, think about the good times.
The pixies at the Hollywood borlw, where is my mind?
I just don't know.
Life goes so fast then it goes too slow.
Had to join a band to discover the flow.
But aye yo, I got two tickets to the rock show. 
Dead center, front row.

I wanna take you out to the rock show baby (Rock show)
Make you understand what makes me. (You make me)
And if you want I will go crazy for you. 
(If you wanna go crazy girl) 
Oh-oh 
(Then you can be my baby girl) 
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

Uh!
Before I drove I walked, kickin' rocks in the park.
Kick flip and drop, shootin hoops on the black top.
I still remember when the joints were skinny, 
Way before I had a penny and Lenny chopped his dread locks.
Late night, I listened to the tape box 
'Til the daylight come and I break off 
To find a girl so I could sing a love song 
In her ear and tell her where we go from here.

Get the guitar, play, baby, let's drop.
Forget the bad days, think about the good times.
Make love every night like the first night.
And dance in the sand, like it's our birth right.
Live it up cause it may not last.
Life goes too slow then it goes too fast.
Had to see the future to discover the past, 
So if you wanna go (wanna go) here's a backstage pass. 

I wanna take you out to the rock show baby (Rock show)
Make you understand what makes me. (You make me)
And if you want I will go crazy for you. 
(If you wanna go crazy girl) 
Oh-oh 
(And then you can be my baby girl) 
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

I wanna take you out to the rock show baby.
Make you understand what makes me.
And if you want I will go crazy for you. 
Oh-oh
(And you could be my baby girl) 
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

I wanna take you out to the rock show baby. (Rock show)
Make you understand what makes me. (You make me)
And if you want I will go crazy for you. 
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

If you want I will go crazy.
If you want I will go crazy.
If you want I will go crazy for you
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
