Letra de
Hey Ya

Hey Ya! fue escrita y producida por André 3000, uno de los miembros del dúo de hip-hop OutKast. La canción es parte del álbum Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, que es esencialmente un proyecto doble donde cada miembro del dúo exploró su propia dirección musical. Hey Ya! se destaca por su mezcla única de funk, rap, rock y pop, y logró una inmensa popularidad no solo en los Estados Unidos sino en todo el mundo. La letra trata temas de amor y desilusión ... de una manera juguetona y enérgica. El video musical, inspirado en los shows de Ed Sullivan de los años 1960, también ganó una atención significativa tras su lanzamiento. Ver más [+]

My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure
But does she really wanna
But can't stand to see me
Walk out the door
I can't stand to fight the feeling
Because the thought alone is killing me right now
But thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking two together
Cause we don't know how

And hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya

You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it
'Til there's nothing at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separate's always better when there's feelings involved
If what they say is "Nothing is forever."
Oh, then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, what makes love the exception?
So why oh, why oh
Why oh, why oh, why oh, are we so in denial
When we know we're not happy here

And, hey ya
Hey ya
And, hey ya
Hey ya
And, hey ya
Hey ya
And, hey ya
Hey ya

Alright now fellas
You know what's cooler than bein' cool?
I can't hear nobody
I say what's cooler than bein' cool?
And alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright now ladies
I say we gonna break it down in just a few seconds here
Don't make me break it down for nothing
I wanna see y'all on y'all's baddest behavior
Lend me some sugar!
I am your neighbor

Shake it, shake, shake it
Shake, shake, uh shake it
Shake, shake, uh shake it
Shake it shake it
Shake shake, shake shake it
Like a Polaroid picture
Oh now, shake it up
Oh now, but shake it up
I said shake it up
Shake it up, but oh now just shake it up

And, hey ya
Hey ya
And, hey ya
Hey ya, oh no
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya, oh
Oh, hey ya
And, hey ya
And, hey ya
