Stir It Up

[Intro: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone]
Come on (Woo)
Yeah, yeah
Oh, uh

[Verse 1: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone, Both]
I can't sit here while I go nowhere
Chase my dreams through the polluted air
I'm walkin' on a wire, runnin' out of time
There's no room in this ol' heart of mine
Bill collectors waitin' down the hall
Neighbors scream and crack a bedroom wall
Words jump off the pages, passion hits the street
Anger's cookin' in the city heat

[Pre-Chorus: Joss Stone, Patti LaBelle]
World's too crazy, I can't take no more
I won't stay here locked behind the door

[Chorus: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone, Both]
Got to stir it up
I got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow
Ooh, I can't wait to
Stir it up (Oh, yes, oh, yeah)
I got to shake it up now
If I have to beg or borrow
I'm not gonna take it anymore

[Post-Chorus: Joss Stone, Patti LaBelle]
No, no
Uh, uh, ooh, yeah

[Verse 2: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone, Both]
Hungry minds do stare you in the eyes
Spread it thick and lay the biggest lies
Don't say what you feel (Hey, don't say what you feel), must play hard to get (Oh)
All those time bombs tickin' in your head

[Pre-Chorus: Both, Patti LaBelle]
So much pressure to keep holdin' on (Oh)
Pack my clothes up, baby, I'll be gone

[Chorus: Joss Stone, Both, Patti LaBelle]
Stir it up
I got to break it up now
When I think about tomorrow
Ooh, I can't wait to
Stir it up (Yeah)
I got to shake it up now (Now)
If I have to beg or borrow
I'm not gonna take it no more

[Post-Chorus: Joss Stone, Patti LaBelle]
Uh, uh, oh, no
Don't, come on
Don't take it, baby, no, no, no, no
Stir it up (I'm not gonna take it anymore)
Said

[Bridge: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone]
Can't find love because it's trapped inside
I can't find freedom (Woo) 'cause it's hard to find
Why don't you make some room, make some room in this ol' heart of mine?
There's so much pressure, baby, to keep holdin' on
Pack my clothes up, baby, I'll be gone

[Chorus: Joss Stone, Patti LaBelle]
Stir it up (Baby)
I got to break it up now (I got to)
When I think about tomorrow
You know I can't wait to (I can't wait to)
To stir it up (I can't wait to)
I got to shake it up now (I can't wait to)
If I have to beg or borrow (Stir it up, yeah)
I'm not gonna take it anymore (Don't, oh, oh, stir it up, ooh)
Stir it up
I got to break it up now (Yeah, gotta stir it up)
When I think about tomorrow (Don't take it, don't, ooh)
To (Don't take it, no, no)
Stir it up (Don't you take it no more)
I got to shake it up now (Don't you take it no more)
If I have to beg or borrow (I'm not gonna take it, no, no)
I'm not gonna take it no more

[Outro: Patti LaBelle, Joss Stone]
Yeah, no, no, no
No, uh
