Originally intended to appear on Best Intentions: Part Two, “Settle Down” never found its way onto a project as Spit Syndicate decided against doing what they’d done with Part One, which was remix a collection of songs, and instead released what was essentially a free EP of original music that would...
Settle Down Lyrics
[Verse 1: Jimmy Nice]
I met her at her
Place of work, heavy in the haze of
Infatuation, she had me takin' days off
This time next Saturday, same spot
Jotted her number down for me on a tablecloth
She heartbroken, been a year
Since he last spoke, but still she feel brainwashed
[?] 'cause I ain't what her dreams were made of
Till we meet up, made out then made off
Uh, high heels littered down the hallway
Post-it Note sayin' 'love you always'
Singin' I'm her only one, that's what they all say
Shit, I'm just tryna have fun, skip the foreplay
Lords knows we in too deep
Makin' her empty promises to get her to sleep
Sayin' "Be a man of your word, Jimmy, talk is cheap"
Damn, girl, you said you wanted to creep, not settle down
[Chorus: Kimbra (Jimmy Nice)]
Star so light (uh, so light, baby)
And star so bright (so bright)
First star I see (and I don't know what it is that you did to me)
Tonight (but you killin' me, ah, I know you feelin' me, girl)
Star so light (uh, so light, baby)
And star so bright (so bright)
Keep him by my
Side (but you killin' me, ah, I know you feelin' me, girl)
[Verse 2: Nick Lupi]
Yo
I met her at the [?] spot, downtown of Glebe
I don't mean weed, man, I go there for a feed
Kinda like Eve, said "I got what you need"
B.I.G. lyrics tatted on her sleeve
Indeed, we got together, would you believe
Uh, I call her Bali, she beautiful and cheap
But I woulda stayed for more than two weeks
Either I get bored or I fall too deep, so I
I hit the breaks before it got heavy
Before she caught feelings and it got messy
You got crazy legs, I rock steady, but
I don't wanna lead you on, I'm not ready
She just laughed and said, "Is that what you think?"
Gave me the finger like, "You think I want a ring?
I got three more just like you, boy
Shit, all I really wanted was fling, Nick, settle down"
[Chorus: Kimbra (Nick Lupi)]
Star so light (so light, baby)
And star so bright (so bright)
First star I see (I don't know what it is that you did to me)
Tonight (but you killin' me, I know you feelin' me, girl)
Star so light (so light, baby)
And star so bright (so bright)
Keep him by my (I don't know what it is that you did to me)
Side (but you killin' me, I know you feelin' me, girl)
[Outro: Jimmy Nice]
Uh. The new album coming soon. BI: Part Two. True. Kimbra we love ya, girl.
