Ooh la-la
Sing ooh la-la-la-la
C’mon y’all
I’m coming fast I’m coming hard
Ready to blow up like a bomb
I’m in a rush I got a crush
And my bio-musical clock is ticke-ticke-tocking
Got something juicy for y’all
All you Billy boys in particular
So shake the fire down below
Don’t move too fast, don’t rock too slow
Ooh la-la
Sing ooh la-la-la-la
C’mon y’all
Ooh la-la
Sing ooh la-la-la-la
C’mon y’all
Gimme a break
C’mon c’mon let’s shake it
Bring it, ring it, sing it
Like you ain’t never gonna kick it
Ooh la-la
Sing ooh la-la-la-la
C’mon y’all
Ooh la-la
Sing ooh la-la-la-la
C’mon y’all

G.L.S. '08 Remix

Little boys don't know why
They were born with dirty minds
Little girls don't understand
Why the like boys in rock and roll bands
It is in the air we breathe
In every book and magazine
It even has its own revolution
Now this is gonna blow your mind
It's all because god likes sex
He don't think of nothing else
He just loves to play his game
Again and again and again and again
Want to get it off your mind
You try to run you try to hide
But you just can't change your destination
It's a fever you can't shake
There ain't no cure no pills to take
You want to think it's all imagination
Now this is gonna blow your mind
It's all because god likes sex
He don't think of nothing else
He just loves to play his game
Again and again and again and again
It's all because his dirty mind
That he keeps you up all night
He just loves to play this game
Again and again and again and again
You try to run
You try to hide
But you can't get it off your mind

Bombastic

“Bible Bombastik” beating on my eardrum
Ripping up the record machine
Sending wicked chills up and down my spine
Do you know what I mean?
The paparazzi lined up like Nazis
Watching every move that I make
Lighting up the sky with their flash bulbs
Shining like a brand new star
C’mon, c'mon, c'mon
Welcome to wherever you are
Welcome to wherever you are
(New York, it’s Bombastic)
(Tokyo, it’s Bombastic)
(Sydney, it’s Bombastic)
Welcome to wherever you are
(Tune in, it’s Bombastic)
(Check it out, it’s Bombastic)
(Rock it, it’s Bombastic)
Welcome to wherever you are

Hello California
03:30
|
|||
I’ve been roaming these streets
Trying to find my beat
But I just can’t seem to get on track
And I’ve begun to think
This ain’t the place for me
I can’t pull a rabbit out of a hat
I will miss my friends
Here in N.Y.C.
But I gotta follow my heart
And it’s says get on a plane baby
Go to L.A.
And make a brand new start
Hello California here I come
Got my shades on
C’mon c’mon give some love
Go California
How you doin’ tonight
Hello California
Here I am
An east coast girl
With a big heart & big plans
Go California rock me
I feel I can take
Almost anything tonight
Check out California
With the surf and the sand
This place is going straight to my head
And all those pretty boys
I see everywhere
They make me never wanna go to bed
Hey baby meet me tonight
On Hollywood and Vine
Let’s see what the city has in store
I’ll never forget where I’m coming from
But tonight I wanna be a California girl
Hello California…

Superstar Car Crash
04:01
|
|||
If I could
You know I would
Take you with me
'cause I swear there ain't no place better
People say
I might not be worth the wait
But for someone who just learned to fly
I couldn't get much higher
It's all about the rock and roll
Intoxication of the heart and soul
You know it took a while to get me here
I'm gonna make it last
All pumped up in my rocking chair
With my attitude and my savoir-faire
So exuse me if I come around your corner
A little too fast
And make a superstar car crash
If I could
You know I would
Take you for a ride in my celebrity mobile
It's not about
If you can scream and shout
And it's not about changing the face of a generation
It's all about the rock and roll
Intoxication of the heart and soul
You know it took a while to get me here
I'm gonna make it last
All pumped up in my rocking chair
With my attitude and my savoir-faire
So exuse me if I come around your corner
A little too fast
And make a superstar car crash

Infiltrate me, educate me
Take ten steps back cause I'm nearly there
Can't deny it
I want to fly it
But love is a rocket ship
And I gotta find it
And I gotta ride it
So don't stop now
Don't stop now
Driving in my car
Thinking about it baby
Playing my guitar
Thinking about it baby
Now I've found what really makes the world go 'round
Between the gutter and the stars
Thinking about it baby
Everywhere you are
Thinking about it baby
Now I've found what really makes the world go 'round
Detonate me, complicate me
Take ten steps back 'cause I'm nearly there
Hupnotize me, get fever rising
Love's a machinegun and I;m gonna fire it
You know I think about it all the time
'cause I can't get it off my mind
Driving in my car...
Ladies and gentlemen start your engines
Get ready to burn for the rock of ages
Bump and grind get ready to bite it
Don't lay back and just talk about it
Get ready, get ready, get ready
Driving in my car...
Ladies and gentlemen
I think we have a winner
And it's a pretty one
So put your two hands together

Little Helper
04:27
|

I would crawl across the floor you
Forget my manners if you asked me to
You make me wanna dress up in dirt
Bad boy, but you know I was like this way before
I met you, yeah it’s true
You wanna…
Meet me in the bathroom
One last time in the shower
One more time before my heart lies flat on the floor
If there’s something better baby
I don’t think they’ve found it yet
Your love is
Your love is
A superbad funky wicked little helper
Talking ‘bout my new sensation
Will not give this one away
Your love is
Your love is
A superbad funky wicked little helper
I’ve been straight but I’m about to bend
Can’t stop talking ’bout my new best friend
Said I wouldn’t but I did anyway
Here I go, stop me mama before I give it all away
Here’s what I say
I wanna
Spend it like a rock star, pop it like a pill
Get as high as that bird on my window sill
If there’s something better…

Reality Check
03:17
|

This is how it used to be
2 channels on my black and white TV
No Tevo, no remote control
Just hanging out watching whatever’s on
Now we’ve got flat screens, on-demand, MTV
87 channels and too much reality
Hey, hey, hey
Get your reality check on
Hey, hey, hey
The future is here now
Are your ready for fun
Are you ready for the ride
Are you ready to do it all again
This is how we used to play
Beat up old football, any given Sunday
No rules no energy drinks
Just a little bit of fun and some wishful thinking
Now it’s all endorsement deals
Half time shows, celebrities
Soccer stars with pop star wives
Can we keep the dream alive?
Hey, hey, hey
Get your reality check on
Hey, hey, hey
The future is here now
Are your ready for fun
Are you ready for the ride
Are you ready, are you ready
Are your ready for fun
Are you ready for the ride
Are you ready to do it all again

Thank you!

I am wearing the peace
Baby can’t you see
Love’s got a hold on me
I am wearing the peace
So why you wanna trip on me?
I am wearing the peace
Can’t just let it be
I want the world to see
How good it all could be
So come on can I get some release
Can I get an Amen?
C’mon c’mon c’mon can I get an
Can I get an Amen?
I am wearing the peace
Baby can’t you see
We can heal the streets
Before we all start to bleed
(Ooh yeah)
So c’mon will you come with me
I am wearing the peace
Holding on to the dream
Hallelujah amen
I’m gonna make it real
(Real as real)
So c’mon c’mon come sing with me
I am wearing the peace
Baby can’t you see
Just wearing the peace…
And so I pray
For a better day
Can you hear me say
I am wearing the peace
So baby tell me
Why you wanna trip on me?

Salme Dahlstrom New York, New York
The Wall Street Journal dubbed musician Salme Dahlstrom a “savvy singer” and “music licensing queen” when, like Moby before her, she managed to license every track from her 2008 album The Acid Cowgirl Audio Trade to various corporations and television programs. At the time, Dahlstrom was not only just getting noticed, she was just getting started. ... more
