Scream (Funk My Life Up)

Paolo Nutini

6

How was I to know you'd just come along?

(And funk my life up)

Lips like they've been singing sexed up strawberry songs

(Just funk my life up)

Never heard it coming, thought it's just another woman

With a shotgun in her hand

(Funk my life up)

She's the bass, she's the beat, she's the rhythm, she's the band

(Just funk my life up)

And the girl, so fine

Makes you wanna scream Hallelujah

Sly hands, spinning webs like silk

Beats are dripping on me, like spider milk

And I never heard the warning when I woke up this morning

With my sunshine on a drip

She's my rock, she's my bud, she's tequila, she's a trip

And that girl, so fine

Makes you wanna scream Hallelujah

How can I refuse? I'm not fit to chose

(Just funk my life up)

I said the only way I win is the way I lose

(Just funk my life up)

And I never got the script, I unzipped

Got a little bit wet up in my brain

She's your church, she's your sin, she's atomic,

she's the oh she's the rain

And the girl, so fine you wanna scream

Yeah, yeah

She gets me silly, she's like a trick on me

Hell, I don't even know her name but yet she sticks to me

And in the climax she would scream with me

Yeah, she sticks to me

She gets me funny, she doesn't want none of my money

So I pour it over her like gasoline

Light a match and then I'm back in my teens

Me and super girl smoking my green

Me and super girl smoking my green

Unload, reload, eyes back swinging,

Sweet thing, knows things, Jeff Beck sings

Roundhouse, going down…… Let's go!

And the girl so fine makes you wanna scream Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Yeah, the girl, so fine, you wanna scream
