k-os - Uptown Girl Lyrics
Uh, its like a brand new thing
Switch off the auto-tune toes toward this red thing
She told me to come hang at the dock of the bay
I said no way I'd rather kick it with Graham and Jane
See now you're lost in the plot
You put us on the cover to cover back to back
Sun doesn't shine
Its still a funk pop marshall ahh
I'm not from the ghetto
But my mama is and she's and uptown girl
I know it's hard to let it go
But you gotta stay up when you're down
Another world, another town
It's all the same
Oh it's insane
And there's no one to blame
Connect the dots omit the Gobots
Hotels, new towns takin' up whole blocks
Taxi, take me to the jam of the year
Get there everybody stop and stare
At the disco ball won't miss my call to rock
Fistful of dots and a new boom box
Bangin, slangin, a capellas to sellas
Don't be jealous, what if all we say is embellished?
Yo it's an uptown world
Electric slide to the side of your mind
Hey to her to me it's all the same
No man's land is how I'm playin the game
I think I lost my mind to a backseat driver in a cab by the moonlight side
Uptown
Make a move uptown
Uptown
Make a move uptown
I'm not from the ghetto
But my mama is and she's and uptown girl
I know it's hard to let it go
But you gotta stay up when you're down
Can't stop this boat from sinking
To new depth's that I hope we never see again
Can't stop this boat from sinking
To new depth's that I hope we never see again
I'm not from the ghetto
But my mama is and she's and uptown girl
I know it's hard to let it go
But you gotta stay up when you're down
Another world, another town
Another letdown
It's all the same
(Oh it's insane)
It's always the same
And there's no one to blame
Another world, another town
Another letdown
It's all the same
(Oh it's insane)
It's always the same
And there's no one to blame
Can't stop this boat from sinking
To new depth's that I hope we never see again
Can't stop this boat from sinking
To new depth's that I hope we never see again

k-os Uptown Girl Comments
Is it about Titanic?
I mean, "can't stop this boat from sinking"? An uptown girl, with an uptown mother?
And 'I know it's hard (heart) to *let go* but you gotta stay up when you're down?
It sounds like lines from Titanic.
This song is not similar to 'Love Buzz'. It is a sample from the song. The original 'Love Buzz' I mean, by Shocking Blue, NOT the cover by Nirvana. Also, it is freaking great.
that's how i got here too...check out one time by k-os! they're great together.
first time i heard this i was convinced the chorus was done my Damon Albarn from The Gorillaz
K-os and Emily Haines?! Awesome!
The riff is similar to the Stander theme from the trailer watch?v=r04uE3aKkmY
If anyone has Enter The Matrix, play this song against a level of the game. It. Is. Amazing.
"Switch off the autotune" Good advice to all the other "musicians"
necro uses this.. hahaha
@cooldisks101 That makes me happy I've got a good radio channel where I live. I found OUT about this on the radio.
Thumbs up if you think this is plain awesome.
I REALLY wish this was on the radio...
its got the beat to 'ice ice baby'
@ImSoCool2bOnYT It's pretty much The Shocking Blue's "Love Buzz".
That riff is pretty much Nirvana's "Love Buzz". Bleach is the best!
The bass line is so simple, but really catchy. Love it when I hear this song on the radio at work.
Myeah ok, but the dude copied these lines instead of sampling them (probably so he doesn't have to pay anything to anyone this way) so for me, he's an unoriginal dick.
the guitar line is also very similiar to the prodigy's phoenix
This song is Dope!
He kindof copied a Nirvana quitar line.. can't recall the title of the song though.
a beauty!
uuuuuuuuu nice
Is the chick Emily Haines from Metric?
This, zambony, and 4321 are my three favourites on the album right now.
