Furtado, Nelly - Explode Lyrics






Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun
With a ligther and some hairspray
Smoking in the girls' room
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some

Now we look back and see that she didn't know how
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode

Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade
We couldn't get enough

Then count the stars and the ten million woes
Just you and the universe judging each other
We never knew that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go

It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
Such a good, good story to tell

You bully, you break, you bully, you break
You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning

And it's wild
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste

As we explode
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go

We're counting the stars
We're counting the stars
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
We're not very far, we're not very far

And it's you and me in the open air
It's truth or dare, we don't care
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars

Furtado, Nelly Explode Comments
  1. J.... B....

    For me this is actually a good video. I watched it first here at 11 and I thought the cartoon version of Nelly had a cat-like face lmao. I was also a bit jealous of Nelly because I wanted to look like her and it never worked.

    Now I'm 15, I watched this again and I realize this has an actual meaning. I can say this song is one of the best by Nelly :-)

  2. A.... A....

    love those dancing monsters

    Brings so many memories. I remember feeling super edgy listening to unreleased foreign songs. Could not understand everything in the song at the time, but I definitely felt the melancholy of being a teen and the contradictions of wanting to look big while still being a kid at heart. I got stuck with the line "just you and the universe judging each other" because I thought it was cool, but now at 34 I understand how deep it really is.
    I've bought a bass very recently and I want to cover this song as soon as I'm able to with other people.

    E.... X....

    jup this line is possibly the most genius of the whole song

  5. M.... V....

    She looked so much hotter, cuter and prettier with longer hair. The short hair look DOES NOT suit her AT ALL.

    With a lighter and some hairspray
    Smoking in the girls' room
    Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's

    Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some

    Now we look back and see that she didn't know how
    We never thought that we'd get caught up

    Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled

    Just you and the universe judging each other
    We never knew that we'd get caught up

    It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong
    Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
    More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
    At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break

    As we explode
    As we explode
    As we let go

    We're counting the stars
    We're counting the stars
    We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
    We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
    We're not very far, we're not very far

    And it's you and me in the open air
    It's truth or dare, we don't care
    We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
