Stay Hungry Lyrics

[Verse]
I think we can signify our love now
Ooh, girl, you can initiate an impulse of love

[Chorus]
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry
Move a muscle, move a muscle, move a muscle
Make a motion, make a motion, make a motion
Pull it tighter, pull it tighter, pull it tighter
Double beating, double beating, double beating
Double beating, double beating, double beating
Palpitation, palpitation, palpitation
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry


[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Here's that rhythm again
Here's my shoulder blade
Here's the sound I made
Here's the picture I saved

Here's that rhythm again
Here's my shoulder blade
Here's the sound I made

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

The ninth song on More Songs About Buildings and Food, this somewhat disco song segues into an instrumental outro comprised of looping guitars, drums and other synthetic sounds. The lyrics suggest the narrator looking for a more physical side of a relationship.
