A cover of the 1991 single “Things That Make You Go Hmmm…” by C+C Music Factory, this track was the B-side to Stooshe’s 2012 hit “Black Heart”. New verses were written by the band.
Things that make you go mmm
It’s Stooshe
Things that make you go mmm
Karis, Alex, Courtney, oh yeah
Things that make you go mmm, mmm, mmm, yeah
Oh! let’s go
[Verse 1]
I was in my yard
Putting on my face with that dazzle dust
Gracing my eyes with love
The doorbell rings, who could it be?
No one should be getting here til I’m mint seen…
Get to the door, ding dong, who is it?
My hot postman has paid me a visit
(Babe I got a package for ya, it’s quite big)
I licked my lips with that pillar box round ya dick
I’m Cas J but he made a move, now I know my boyfriend wouldn’t approve
He looked so good like strawberry ice cream
Yo, I couldn’t eat him, no
Don’t lose control al, don’t take the bait
Chill baby baby, chill baby baby, paint!
I’m doing my nails babe but just so ya know I got a boyfriend!
[Chorus]
Things that make you go mmm
Things that make you go mmm
Things that make you go mmm, mmm, mmm yeah
[x2]
[Verse 2]
Here’s how it started, just an example of how
My life is all about sparkle
Living it golden, love and behold them
Watch ya behind, there was a friend of mine named Jay
Thought she was a boss lady no way
This flavour is all about K
This wink’s aimed at you and this mink’s paid-for too
Cause now I earn money, soon I earn dollar
And all ya gonna get is that ya really really wanna
All I ever wanted to do was sing, yeah
My nails are nude and all my days I’m loving
On stage with my girls is real and it’s running
Inspired by Nicki, let’s hope I’m no.1′ing with my girlfriends
[Chorus]
Things that make you go mmm
Things that make you go mmm
Things that make you go mmm, mmm, mmm yeah
[x2]
Break it down like this
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me - [repeated lots]
[Verse 3]
Seventeen and I was a having a ball
M&s, oh yeah I did it all
Innocent with a whole lotta crass
Swag so clash I give you whiplash
We all about colour, we all about crackle
Oh snap, we’re pop and we’re hot… are you baffled?
Bubblegum with some candyfloss
Make us how ya want, be blunt, why not?
We never get offended, there’s no point us defending
We stick a song called "Fuck Me" out and we’re trending
I’m not saying untouchable cause we’re not
We’re here to have fun and play dumb to the boss
We’re here to cause havoc and not give a toss
We’re here to be Stooshe you likey, you not…
I take it all with a pinch of salt and so does my girlfriends!
Things that make you go mmm…
Things that make you go mmm…
Things that make you go mmm, mmm, mmm yeah
