Trouble Again Lyrics by M.I.A.

Matangi

2013

Uh, oh you're in trouble
I step up in the game and I burst that bubble
Uh, oh you're in trouble
I step up in the game and I burst that bubble
Uh, oh you're in trouble
I step up in the game and I burst that bubble
Uh, oh you're in trouble
I step up in the game and I burst that bubble

Bought up a baby in a bandana
I boarded a Boeing eating a banana
Bounce on the bed
Battling with heads
It's based on a story that nobody read
Bought up a baby in a bandana
I boarded a Boeing eating a banana
Bounce on the bed
Battling with heads
It's based on a story that nobody read

People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
Cause I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation
And I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation

People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
Cause I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation
And I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation

Played in the park
Packed with piranhas
I jump in puddle
Singing nirvana
Passed by the past and I end at the start
Now I'm living the life and I'm gonna raise the bar

Played in the park
Packed with piranhas
I jump in puddle
Singing nirvana
Passed by the past and I end at the start
Now I'm living the life and I'm gonna raise the bar
Played in the park
Packed with piranhas
I jump in puddle
Singing nirvana
Passed by the past and I end at the start
Now I'm living the life and I'm gonna raise the bar

People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
Cause I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation
And I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation

People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
People see me as trouble, see me, see me as trouble
Cause I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation
And I got a reputation
Got a, got a reputation

Do you know my name?
Do you know my number?
Do you know by summer I will make you a member?
I know you're busy running round with Linda
If I don't get you now then I'll get you by December
You're dancing styles outdated like tinga
It's just a cat, mami snap your finger
I drift in deserts from bumper to bumper
We can rock a dress or we can rock a jumper
You want that pain so I set you on fire
These girls are high but I take you lot higher
So get your beer, it's tiger or Corona
We throw up heat like a bunsen burner

You know my badman style
Cause I'm from Lanka
Eat up a falafel
Say danke danke
If I'm in Street Fighter
I'll be more like Blanka
Roll like a ball and I'll bleed you like a banker

Do you know my name, name, name, name, name, name?
(M.I.A.)
Name, name, name, name, name, name
(M.I.A.)
Do you know my name, name, name, name, name, name?
(M.I.A.)
Do you know my name, name, name, name, name, name?
(M.I.A.A.)
