Hoodie

About Hoodie

"Hoodie" is the fourth single from hip hop artist Lady Sovereign's debut album Public Warning, following the release of her first UK top 40 hit, "9 to 5". The single was produced by UK dance outfit Basement Jaxx and became her third top 75 hit, peaking at #44 in the UK Singles Chart. The single's B-side was her debut 12" single "Ch Ching (Cheque 1 2)". The single was recorded to coincide with her "Save the Hoodie" campaign. Lady Sovereign wrote the single as she was angry that individuals wearing hoodies were being persecuted against due to people stating that they created social fear. Lady Sovereign stated at the time, "I'm all about standing up for the hoodie. They wanna have a moan about people that wear them, but I wear them all the time and I don't like the way some other people dress". Lady Sovereign references the Three stripes trademark of Adidas in the song. The song had been featured on a Mario Party DS advertisement in 2007. more »

For a second ill be the fashion police and I'm just looking at your garms \
You been on too many catalogue sprees
With your grannyfied curtain designs, your hurting my eyes,
You really should revise your dress sense before you walk on by,
I'm kinda mixed up in this disco inferno,
Baggy jeans and a tight top, lemonade and pernod
I'm sticking out like a sore thumb but I ain't concerned though, no, uh oh,oh oh oh (boogie)

[Chorus: x2]
Fling on an A D I D A S hoodie and just boogie woogie with me 
Ohhhhh...
Or you can just. put on your dancing shoes and get loose
Can you get loose can you??

So I was up in this trendy bar mingling
My keys around my neck were jingling
And you was looking at me like it was my bling
You was staring at me like to say I was ginger
I was dishing out out the same dirty looks trust me your the minger

Err, who's she, who's that, who's her??
The bouncer was approaching me coz I was dressed really inappropriately
No hood, no hats, no this, no that
Let's rolluh olll uh olll ..(out)

[Chorus: x2]

Right everybody, if you've got someone who can't dress properly, 
Yeah you need to direct them this way.

Why not just cut up all your old clothes and make a quilt 
So I can wrap myself up when I'm feeling cold,
Why not dash your ugly boots on the fire and burn them down to charcoal,
If your not feeling the way that your bedrin is dressing don't be stressing 

Send them in my direcion please,
Black shoes , white socks, no uhh ohhh
Polka dots, no uhh ohhh
Flowery frocks, no uhh ohhh
Just boogie woogie with me!

[Repeat Chorus]
