Yummy

Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Williams

About Yummy

"Yummy" is a song recorded by American singer and songwriter Gwen Stefani, featuring American musician Pharrell Williams, from her second solo studio album, The Sweet Escape (2006). The track was released on November 11, 2006 as a promotional single for the parent album's release through Interscope Records. It was developed during several sessions in Miami, Florida, and Hollywood, California, in July 2005, for an intended EP or as extra tracks on her video album Harajuku Lovers Live (2005). The song was written by Stefani and Williams and produced by The Neptunes. Musically, the collaboration is a dance-pop recording with a "day-glo" rap. Its lyrics deal with food, sexual intercourse, and the roles that an individual may have within a household. "Yummy" divided music critics, with some praising its minimalistic production, leaving others to find it too simple, in addition to criticizing its lyrics. It was often compared to Kelis' 2003 hit single "Milkshake". The track was performed during Stefani's The Sweet Escape Tour in 2006, where she entered the stage alongside two keyboard musicians. More recently, the singer sang a rendition of it as part of a melody, known as the "Harajuku Medley", during her MasterCard Priceless Surprises promotional events in 2015 and 2016.

[Chorus]
I'm feeling yummy head to toe(you see me)
Ain't got no patience so let's go (you see me) look, 
I'm diet drama wanna spend the night? don't bring pajamas
Man there's so much heat beneath these clothes (you see me)

Walk in the place they know my face
Encore, sophomore, only one solo I swore
Big mouth, applause, oh please one more
Wanna hear it before I say now let me check my itinerary, umm alright
Presto, skintight, escaped and I risked my life
For what?
So I can watch them bite only one Gwen you can find like this, 
I mean blow your mind like this
Your key won't shine like this, 
If its yours then you know it won't wind like this
Wind it up!

[Chorus]

I know you've been waiting but I've been off making babies
And like a chef making donuts and pastries
Its time to make you sweat
Sex and sugar is the flavor
Ovens and beaters and graters
Beats made of bongos and shakers
Its time to make you sweat

[Chorus]

I know you've been waiting but I've been off making babies
And like a chef making donuts and pastries
Its time to make you sweat
Sex and sugar is the flavor
Ovens and beaters and graters
Beats made of bongos and shakers
Its time to make you sweat

Now sweat baby, get stupid, jump up, go crazy
L.a.m.b. in 3D, worldwide across your TV K
P, you crazy, how'd you get this? this sounds like disco Tetris
Do I have time to connect this? let me check my itinerary, umm
I came back for my spotlight(for her spotlight) 
I disappeared like Houdini (where Houdini?) 
If yours didn't come out right (if its not right) 
Go to kinkos and xerox me

[Chorus]

I know you've been waiting but I've been off making babies
And like a chef making donuts and pastries
Its time to make you sweat
Sex and sugar is the flavor
Ovens and beaters and graters
Beats made of bongos and shakers
Its time to make you sweat
