Woozy Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jean Deaux]
Now can we place a bet
You love collect calls inside of your cigarettes
I still wonder why you can't seem to get it yet
If we go half then maybe we can spend another night, another day
Another chance for us to get right
Inside these walls we watch the tables turn
You say I should've had a mother and watch my navel yearn
There are things that I expect you know
How you gone plant a whole seed and not expect it to grow?
We just smoking too much weed, I'm still expecting to blow
Let's take a walk, don't forget your key, baby
Let's say a prayer, come on, get down on your knees, baby
Come on, get down on your knees, baby

[Hook - Glass Animals]
Please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha
Don't get up, don't get up, don't get up, don't get up
Please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha

[Verse 2: Jean Deaux]
There's no doubt, you know I want this just as much as you
What if you lying? Then I'm just stuck here like a fucking fool
I'll still be stuck even if this is the fucking truth
You say I'm running from my problems, but there's no other way
If you decide to keep it, I don't know if I'mma stay
My shoulders dislocating, breaking under all this weight
I'm just thinkin bout your lateness, it's a bad time
I want to be situated before I have mine
Let's take a walk, don't forget your key, baby
Let's say a prayer, come on, get down on your knees, baby
Come on, get down on your knees, baby
Come on, get down on your knees, baby
[Hook - Glass Animals]
Come on, get down on your knees, baby
(Please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha
Don't get up, don't get up, don't get up, don't get up
Please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha
Please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha, please, a-ha
Don't get up, don't get up, don't get up, don't get up)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

Woozy is a story of a couple contemplating over the news that the girl might be expecting, in an eery hotel room. The song, that was originally concocted from a “random hotel room” concept, is titled “Woozy” to express the feeling the two people share in the moment. The band and Jean Deaux allow the story to float through your ears and pull you in sonically. For the most part, it is up to the audience to guess about the backstory to the love birds, and essentially draw some sort of conclusion of what really happens next…

What did Glass Animals say about "Woozy"?
Genius Answer

On how they came to collaborate with Jean Deaux: “I have a friend who is really into discovering young MCs. He sits me down every once in a while and we listen to stuff. He played me this a cappella she had on Soundcloud and it was totally brilliant. I sent her an e-mail and she was a fan of Glass Animals so I actually went out to New York to do some production for her mixtape. We did the bulk of this in a morning and then she wanted me to sing on it too. Then the band guys had some ideas for it and it just spiraled out of control into a Glass Animals track.”
