Driver roll up the partition please
Driver roll up the partition please
I don't need you seeing ‘Yoncé on her knees
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gonna make it to this club
Now my mascara running, red lipstick smudged
Oh he so horny, yeah, he want to fu...
He popped all my buttons and he ripped my blouse
He monica lewinsky-ed all on my gown

Oh dere daddy daddy, didn't bring a towel
Oh baby baby, better slow it down
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
And we ain't even gonna make it to this club

Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like
(Girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me

(Right here with me, right here with me)
(Right here with me, right here with me)

Driver roll up the partition fast
Driver roll up the partition fast
Over dere I swear I saw them cameras flash
Hand prints and foot prints on my glass
Hand prints and good grips all on my ass
Private show with the music blasting
He like to call me "Peaches" when we get this nasty
Red wine drip filth talk that trash
Chauffeur ease dropping trying not to crash

Oh dere daddy daddy, now you ripped my fur
Oh baby baby, be sweating on my hair
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
And we ain't even gonna make it to this club

Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like
(Girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me

(Right here with me, right here with me)
(Right here with me, right here with me)

Hello!

Est-ce que tu aimes le sexe?
Le sexe, je veux dire l'activité physique
Le coït, tu aimes ça?
Tu ne t'intéresses pas au sexe?
Les hommes pensent que
Les féministes détestent le sexe
Mais c'est une activité très stimulante
Et naturelle que les femmes adorent.

Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like
(Girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like
(Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me

(Right here with me, right here with me)
(Right here with me, right here with me)

Hello!

On the list announced today (July 17) via SnapChat, VMA veteran Eminem and newbie Iggy Azalea were just behind Queen B, with seven nods each.

Also receiving multiple nominations were Jay-Z, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams, Ariana Grande, Lorde, Sam Smith, Zedd, Avicii, Pitbull, Jason Derulo and Hayley Williams.

Marshall’s nominations include: Best Hip-Hop (Berzerk) and two for The Monster with Rihanna (Best Male and Best Collaboration), while Iggy makes her VMA splash thanks to her mega-hit Fancy - which will vie for Video of the Year, Best Female and Best Pop.

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

I wanted the fame, but not the cover of Newsweek
Oh well, guess beggars can't be choosey
Wanted to receive attention for my music
Wanted to be left alone, public excuse me
Been wanting my cake, I need it too, wanting it both ways
Fame made me a balloon cause my ego inflated
When I blew seep it was confusing
'Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam
Ooh, hit the lottery, oh wee
With what I gave up to get was bittersweet
It was like winning a huge meet
Ironic 'cause I think I'm getting so huge I need a shrink
I'm beginning to lose sleep, one sheep, two sheep

Going cucko and cuckier as Kool Keith

But I'm actually weirder than you think, 'cause I'm
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You trying to save me, stop holding your breath

And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothing

Well, that's nothing
Now I ain't much of a poet, but I know somebody once told me to seize the moment
And don't squander it, 'cause you never know when it could all be over
Tomorrow so I keep conjuring, sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from
(Yeah, ponder it, Do you wonder there's no wonder you're losing your mind the way
you're brought up?)
I think you've been wandering off down yonder and stumbled upon Jeff VanVonderen
'Cause I needed an intervention in this to intervene between me and this monster
And save me from myself and all this conflict
'Cause the very things that I love is killing me and I can't conquer it
My OCD is conking me in the head
Keep knocking, nobody's home, I'm sleepwalking

I'm just relaying what the voice of my head saying
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

Get along with the voices inside of my head
You trying to save me, stop holding your breath

And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothing
Well, that's nothing
Call me crazy, but I had this vision

One day that I'd walk amongst you regular civilians
But until then drums get killed I'm coming straight at
MCs, blood get spilled and I take it back
To the days that I get on a Dre track
Give every kid who got played at
Pumped the villian and shit that say back
To the kids who played 'em
I ain't here to save the fucking children
But if one kid out of a hundred million

Who are going through a struggle feels and relates that's great
It's payback, Russell Wilson falling way back
In the draft, turn nothing into something, still can make that
Straw in the gold chump I will spend Rumpelstiltskin in a hay stack
Maybe I need a straightjacket, face facts

I am nuts for real, but I'm okay with that
It's nothing, I'm still friends with the
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothing
Well, that's nothing

Depending on what kind of nights they have, both Bey (12 total career wins) and Em (11 career wins) could easily make a run for second place on the all-time list of VMA wins, sliding by Peter Gabriel and Lady Gaga (13) on the way to Madonna mountain (20 career wins).

Pharrell will be the lone male voice in the Video of the Year category, where his Happy clip will take on songs by Iggy, Beyoncé, Sia and Cyrus.

It might seem crazy what I am about to say
Sunshine she's here, you can take a break
I'm a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don't care baby by the way

Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Here come bad news talking this and that
Yeah, give me all you got, don't hold back
Yeah, well I should probably warn you I'll be just fine
Yeah, no offense to you don't waste your time
Here's why:

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Happy, come on, bring me down
Happy, come on, bring me down
My Love is too high to bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
I said bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
My Love is too high to bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
I said:

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down…
can't nothing…
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down… my love is too high…
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down… can't nothing…
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down, I said

Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
Come on! (Echoed)
