​mmm Lyrics

[Intro]
Mmm
(He's heating up!)
Mmm, mmm
Mmm
Mmm, mmm

[Verse 1]
Like a tornado, baby
I'm in in falsetto, baby
Yeah, you can't fuck with me
Don't move
Like a playboy, baby
I'm a big boy, baby
Got a big dick, yeah

Like a tornado, baby
I'm in in falsetto, baby
Yeah, you can't fuck with me
Don't move
Like a playboy, baby
I'm a big boy, baby
Got a big dick, yeah
Come through

[Chorus]
(Mmm mm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
[Verse 2]
Like a rainbow, baby
Like the moss on the window
Like the car that goes vroom vroom
Like a bandaid, baby
Like a bad dream, baby
Not a structure, but I'm not your boo
Pick a best friend, baby
Maybe no friends, baby
Yeah I know I don't fuck with cliques
Like a bad day, baby
No god can save me
You can't crucify
This bitch

[Chorus]
(Mmm mm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really really
[Bridge with heavy breathing]

[Chorus]
(Mmm mm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really
(Mmm mmm)
Tell me what you want
What you really really really really
(Mmm mmm)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • 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 [?]

What did Tommy Genesis say about "​mmm"?
Genius Answer

Charlie started making a beat and I remember telling him to stop and was like, ‘Don’t add anything else!’, and that was it. It was so simple and that’s why I liked it. I just started rapping – “mmm” is a freestyle. The tornado and falsetto bits are references to when you’re having sex and the noises… I’m just so dirty. I don’t have a big dick, but it’s metaphorical. I was having fun. It’s just this feeling of like, I’m not yours but you’re intrigued, and you’re not mine, but this is my song, and you’re gonna feel a bit of who I am.

I liked talking about myself in the third person too and fucking around but getting in there with certain metaphors. One of the last things I recorded was the ‘tell me what you want what you really, really, really want’ and then Charlie added bass and added the brass and I loved it. That’s kind of like how we play. I feel like it’s important for the album to drop at some points in energy, so you can breathe.
