Love Today Lyrics

I’ve been crying for so long
Fighting tears just to carry on
But now, but now it’s gone away

Hey girl why can’t you carry on
Is it cuz your just like your mother
A little tight, like to tease for fun
Well you ain’t gonna tease no other
Gonna make you a lover!

Everybody’s gonna love today!
Anyway you want to
Anyway you’ve got to
Love, love me
Girl in the blue with the big bust on
Wait till your mamma and your papa’s gone
Papa’s gone!
Mamma, mamma, papa
Shock, shock me

Everybody’s gonna love today!
Anyway you want to
Anyway you’ve got to
Love, love me

Carolina sits on ‘95
Give her a dollar and she’ll make you smile
Hook her, book her, nook her
Walk away!

Girl dresses like a kid for fun
Licks her lips like they’re something other

Tries to tell you life has just begun
Now you know she’s getting something other
Than the love from her mother!


Everybody’s gonna love today!
Anyway you want to
Anyway you’ve got to
Love, love me
Girl in the blue with the big bust on
Wait till your mamma and your papa’s gone
Papa’s gone!
Mamma, mamma, papa
Shock, shock me

Everybody’s gonna love today!
Anyway you want to
Anyway you’ve got to
Love, love me

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Mika said in an interview this song is about how everyone is out trying to find love or just sex in some cases. No matter what we’re looking for or how we go about doing it, it’s basically all just the same thing.
He also said that he was in a really happy/buzzed mood when he wrote this song and it’s like a command for anyone listening to the song to feel the same way he did when he wrote it.
