Gimme More Lyrics

[Intro: Britney Spears]
It's Britney, bitch
I see you
And I just wanna dance with you

[Verse 1: Britney Spears]
Every time they turn the lights down
Just wanna go that extra mile for you

Public display of affection (Oh-oh-oh)
Feels like no one else in the room (But you)

[Pre-Chorus: Britney Spears]
We can get down
Like there's no one around
We keep on rocking (We keep on rocking)
We keep on rocking (We keep on rocking)
Cameras are flashing
While we're dirty dancing

They keep watching (They keep watching)
Keep watching, feels like the crowd is saying

[Chorus: Britney Spears]
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (Mo')
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (Mo')
Gimme, gimme (More)

[Verse 2: Britney Spears]
The center of attention (Do you feel that?)
Even when we're up against the wall
You got me in a crazy position (Yeah)
If you're on a mission (Uh-huh), you got my permission (Oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Britney Spears]
We can get down
Like there's no one around
We keep on rocking (Keep on rocking)
We keep on rocking (Oh), rocking (Uh-huh)
Cameras are flashing
While we're dirty dancing

They keep watching (They keep watching)
Keep watching, feels like the crowd is saying

[Chorus: Britney Spears]
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (Mo')
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (Mo')
Gimme, gimme (More)
[Bridge: Britney Spears & Danja]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (I just can't)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (Control myself)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (More)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (They want more?)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (Well, I'll give them more)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (Ow! More)

[Chorus: Britney Spears]
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), give me more
Gimme, gimme (More). gimme (Mo')
Gimme, gimme (More), ooh-ooh
Gimme, gimme (More), gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More)
Gimme, gimme (More), give me more, gimme (Mo'), yeah
Gimme, gimme (More)

[Post-Chorus: Britney Spears & Danja]
Oh-oh-oh
Gimme more, gimme more
Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— (More)
Gimme more, gimme more, babe
Danja, Danja, Danja, Danja
Danja, Danja, Danja, Danja
(I just want more)
[Interlude: Britney Spears & Danja]
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ooh-oh, ah-ah-ah, ah

Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme (Danja, Danja, Danja, Danja)
Gimme, gimme (Danja, Danja, Danja, Danja)
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme

[Outro: Danja]
Bet you didn't see this one coming
The Incredible Lago (Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo—)
The legendary Miss Britney Spears, haha
And the unstoppable Danja
Ah, you gonna have to remove me
'Cause I ain't going nowhere
Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— Mo— (More)

“Gimme More” happened at Conway — [Danja] had done the beat in his headphones, and we all had chills. I started [sings], “Gimme Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Gimme” over the low-end. It was just so easy! I believe it was Jim Beanz who came up with the line “It’s Britney, bitch.” We were joking around in the studio, andI remember telling him, “Do it, go do it, put it on there.” I remember [Jim] being a little reserved about it, like, “How’s she gonna feel?” But I was like, “That’s how she’s gotta feel!” It’s cocky, and we simply wanted her to feel that way about this record. She had what I call the “fuck it factor.” She had been pushed into it. And the “fuck it factor” is actually when an artist does something bold, ‘cause it’s like, “I know this is not conventional, and I know this is not why they love me, but fuck it.”
