(Break it, break it down)
(Hey)
(You don't mean nothing at all to me)
(Hey, hey)
(Break it, break it down)
In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand
Or you fall
When your will
Is broken
When it slips
From your hand
When there's no
Time for joking
There's a hole
In my plan
Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
I can't say (Say)
That I'm not (Not)
Lost (Lost)
And at fault (Fault)
I can't say (Say)
That I don't (Don't)
Love the light (Light)
And the dark (Love the light, dark)
I can't say
That I don't (Don't)
Know that I (Am)
Am alive
And I love
What I feel (Feel)
I could show (Show you)
You tonight, you tonight
Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
From my hands
I could give you
Something
That I made
From my mouth
I could sing you
Another bridge
That I made
From my body (From my body)
I could show you (I could show you)
A place (A place)
God knows (That only God knows)
You should know
Space is holy (Ahh...)
Do you really
Wanna go?
(Hey, hey, hey)
(You don't mean nothing at all, to me)
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
(You don't mean nothing at all, to me)
What a powerful hook can do! - Donna Allen, R&B vocalist born in Key West and raised in Tampa, Florida, was backing singer for Gloria Estefan before, in 1986, she released a solo album, which included a track containing a hook that should go global almost a decade later.
Matt Cantor, Andy Gardner and Victoria Newton, a.k.a. Strike, stripped the chorus hook line from it's original and re-packaged it for dancefloors worldwide in 1994. First played 'underhand' the track quickly went viral and saw two releases to the mainstream. Several re-releases (in 1999 and 2006) kept the track current and has achieved something of an anthem status in club world.

Lyrics:
I'm in the club, so damn gone
I lost my friends and I lost my phone
I'm staggering all by my lone
I don't even know how I'm getting home
But its ok its alright- I'm so fresh, yes I'm so fly
I swore last night I'd give up drinkin'
Such a lie what was I thinkin'
I see them movin' see them dancin'
Yeah they doin' that
I see them groovin' poppin' bottles like its new to them
I want to join them but it seems like they're too far from me
Plus where's the bathroom at 'cause I really, really gotta pee!!
Last night I don't remember
Last night I said I'd never
Last night what was I thinkin'?
I really need to give up drinkin'
I'm not gon' drink again
But who am I kiddin'
I'm bout to call my friends tonight and do it over again!
Fresh out the bathroom I'm so relieved
I make my way to the VIP
I done tripped on a step, what the heck
I take a quick look around
And I check my fresh
Then I..proceed to-to my mission
I see a bottle and the vodka glistenin'
Good lord that looks so lovely
Pardon me while I chase this bubbly
I see them movin' see them dancin'
Yeah they doin' that
I see them groovin' poppin' bottles like its new to them
I want to join them but it seems like they're too far from me
Plus where's the bathroom at 'cause I really, really gotta pee!!
Last night I don't remember
Last night I said I'd never
Last night what was I thinkin'?
I really need to give up drinkin'
I'm not gon' drink again
But who am I kiddin'
I'm bout to call my friends tonight and do it over again!
Don't act like you don't drunk dial too!
Haha let the beat ride
That's right
Cash right
Shining like a flashlight
Baby shake your ass right
'Cause this could be your last night
Set the mood, spoon and groom
Ladies fill my living room
Bobby a, what you say?
Ian Carey my DJ
Play that song, wake it bang
We gonna be here all night long
If you got that feelin-feelin'
Yeah now sing the song, D.O. double G
I am sold publicly, speak my mind
Take my time, in the sky, I am fly
If you're low, come with me
'Cause I can get you hella high
Join my crew, be my friend
Tomorrow night, we do it again
Same time, different place
What an ass, what a face
What a life, you can have
And you don't have to
Pack no bags, just get on in
And tomorrow night, we do it again
That's how it is, I always does it big
Your place or mine, a case of wine
Baby stop wasting time, so take flight
'Cause I'm only in town for one more night, ya dig?
Last night I don't remember
Last night I said I'd never
Last night what was I thinkin'
I really need to give up drinkin'
I'm not gon' drink again
But who am I kiddin'?
I'm bout to call my friends tonight and do it over again!
I really shouldn't have another one
But I'm just having way too much fun
So pour up another shot for you me and your friend
Some Henny Black on the rocks
And let's all get shameless
And act famous, act famous, act famous
