| This beat has a certain je ne sais quoi, ah
|
| With a quality much like dust from a star, ah
|
| When I try to describe, it’s so hard
|
| The aroma is like coming out a coma
|
| And the moment that you smell your wife
|
| Remembered how you know her
|
| Out in Arizona, staring at a cactus in the desert
|
| Standing taller than a sculpture at the MoMA
|
| Feels like the wheel of the first car you owned
|
| Tastes like the first meal in your new home
|
| After 50 years, no smoke
|
| And since the last pack, you ain’t had a cough or a sore throat
|
| You put it all on the line but you went flat broke
|
| Met me, got a job, now you’re back on your feet
|
| This beat has a certain je ne sais quoi, ah
|
| With a quality much like dust from a star, ah
|
| It’s like taking her home and removing her bra, ah
|
| When I try to describe, it’s so hard
|
| It’s like you and your boy sharing one bedroom
|
| As the lights flicker, he shares the last piece of food
|
| Long day at work got you stressed and you mad
|
| But you come home, son says you’re the best dad
|
| And it ain’t a regular thing that occurs
|
| It’s that motherfucker’s very first words!
|
| Two nights, Las Vegas
|
| First night, lost everything
|
| Second night, won big
|
| Bought her a wedding ring
|
| You put it all on the line and you thought you went broke
|
| But the taste of defeat ain’t on the menu this week
|
| This beat has a certain je ne sais quoi, ah
|
| With a quality much like dust from a star, ah
|
| From the heavens above to right where you are, ah
|
| When I try to describe, it’s so hard
|
| It’s like seeing your wife become a mother
|
| You’re reminded why you love her
|
| That hike, out in Arizona
|
| Staring at a waterfall, savoring the moment
|
| Feels like the grip of the first bike you owned
|
| Tastes like the first meal when you came home
|
| After 50 years in a cell
|
| Got a second chance, now you can finally exhale
|
| You put it all on the line but you went flat broke
|
| Met me, got a job, now you’re back on your feet
|
| This beat has a certain je ne sais quoi, ah |
