Karate Chop/Sweet Dreams Remix by Karmin Lyrics
[Intro: Amy Heidemann] (x2)
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
[Hook: Amy Heidemann]
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree?
Traveled the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
[Verse 1: Amy Heidemann]
I'm a farm girl hailin' from the mid-west
Ate a lot of corn, dreamin' on my success
Thrift-shopping rap tapes and a Casio
Mixed my Dr Dre with Marilyn Monroe
Never heard my daddy cuss, not a single word
Mama teaches first grade, do your homework
Bible study everyday 'til I'm 18
Keep it in control, don't go Charlie Sheen
One day I saw Diddy on Ricki Lake
Couldn't help but think, "maybe I should misbehave"
Now I'm kickin' dirt, pickin' up platinum
Still I'm catchin' shade, standin' in the sun
[Hook: Karmin] (x2)
[Verse 2: Amy Heidemann]
Pull up in a used Prius, got my tints on
Birdy all the way, mooey, guap, Big Sean
Only diva when I need to be, Chaka Kahn
Got a need for speed, German Autobahn
You karate chopped me, take it backstage
MC Hammer pants, ninja in a new age
Write reviews about my music like you know me
You spin it so hard, yeah, I guess it makes you dizzy
But while you were typin' trash, I was cashin' out like Johnny
I always take my time, takin' pictures in the lobby
Yeah, I bent you out of shape, maybe you should take pilates
You get your zen on, maybe we could chop it up like karate
[Hook: Karmin] (x2)
[Outro: Amy Heidemann]
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
Hold your head up
Keep your head up
[Hook: Amy Heidemann]
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree?
Traveled the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
