[Intro: Teddy Riley]

2000 watts, 2000 watts
2000 watts, 2000 watts

[Verse 1]
Bass note, treble, stereo control, how low you go
Give you just enough to make your juices flow
Press play, don’t stop, rotate, too hot
You feel I’m real
I’m everything you need, so tell me what’s the deal

[Chorus]
2000 watts (2000), 8 ohms (What?), 200 volts, real strong
Too much of that, fuse blown
Be careful what you say don’t overload
2000 watts, 8 ohms, 200 volts, real strong
Too much of that, fuse blown
Be careful what you say, don’t overload

[Verse 2]
3D, high speed, feedback, Dolby
Release two or three, when I reach, I can go ‘til I hit my peak
Compact steelo, chico, D-Lo, highpost lady
Shorty really wanna be there for me
[Chorus]
2000 watts (Come on now), 8 ohms, 200 volts (Yeah), real strong
Too much of that, fuse blown
Be careful what you say, don’t overload (Yeah)

2000 watts, 8 ohms (Yeah), 200 volts, real strong
Too much of that, fuse blown
Be careful what you say, don’t overload

[Bridge: Teddy Riley & Michael Jackson]
We now prepare to take you to the next level (Yeah)

About

Genius Annotation

2000 Watts is a track from Invincible, the final studio album released by Michael Jackson during his lifetime. The song was not a single. This song’s thematic concerns include sex and passion. As Invincible was recorded around the time of the millenium, this is one of the songs on the album with a futuristic feel, achieved by Teddy Riley’s electronic-influenced production and use of modern synthesisers. On this song, Michael adopts a distinctly deeper voice, going all the way below low C at one point. This showcases the large vocal range Jackson had, as he usually sings in an extremely high voice.
