Better With The Lights Off (ft. Chris Brown) Lyrics


You're a dime, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Words can't define,
You're running through my mind all day
I'm so happy you're mine, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Now I think it's time, hey Shawty
I hope you don't take this the wrong wayGirl you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Girl, you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Better with the lights offHey miss America, what you look so sad for?
Sweetheart you only live one time
So put your fantasies on flash forward
Like gone speed me up, got a deadline, cause you need me done
I hate your type I love you too,
I bite your swag cause I wanna do youCan't blame me babe
If you and me were close girl I'd make a change

To your lingerie, right like that, lalala make your eyes roll back
I mean you really fine though,
I just wanna see you with the lights off
Every guy wanna know how it is
To clap off the lights and turn Khloe to KimYou're a dime, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Words can't define,
You're running through my mind all day
I'm so happy you're mine, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Now I think it's time, hey shawty
I hope you don't take this the wrong wayGirl you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Girl, you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Better with the lights offUh, drive off to take my girl to have a nice day
She was nice so I let her hang my way
You look cute girl, what you wanna do girl?
Drive to my house cause it's only me and you girl
Checking her out, she had to put her swag on
Acting too happy saying she ain't going back home
I'm like wow, whatever you say,
But whatever you plan gotta be done at eightNext stop,
Party at my place, of course you're welcome girl, you ain't taking up space
We get there, and shawty still looking right,
She attacked me, but wait let me dim the lights
You look different, she's like boy stop it
No, I ain't playing actually you more poppin'
That's shocking, know what's really raw
All over baby even the lights offYou're a dime, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Words can't define,
You're running through my mind all day
I'm so happy you're mine, so beautiful
Top of the line, so unusual
Now I think it's time, hey shawty
I hope you don't take this the wrong wayGirl you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Girl, you look better with the lights off,
Better with the lights off ooh
Better with the lights off

The New Boyz are a hip hop group and jerkin' crew from Hesperia, California comprised of rappers Earl "Ben J" Benjamin and Dominic "Legacy" Thomas. After meeting as freshmen at Hesperia High School they released their debut single You're a Jerk, which was based on the local dance style of jerkin'. It became a national hit and paved the way for them to release their debut album Skinny Jeanz and a Mic in September 2009 and release another successful single, Tie Me Down featuring Ray J.

New Boyz are the 18 year old rappers that lead the jerk movement. They made the hit song "You're a Jerk." New Boyz started in 2008 as an underground youth phenomenon from the high desert of southern California, but in only a matter of months, they’ve become rising stars on a national level. In this short time period, 18-year-olds Ben J and Legacy have gone from shows in local high school gyms to performing on the red carpet at the BET Awards and booking an impressive lineup of concerts across the country.

This astounding jump comes from the success of their song “You’re a Jerk,” a hypnotic dancefloor-filler that the New York Times called “pretty much perfect.” Though it started as a favorite on MySpace, it has turned into a certified hit. It not only became the most requested track on influential L.A. radio station Power 106, but it’s taken over playlists around the country. During its first week for sale on iTunes, “You’re a Jerk” sold over 53 thousand copies.

The duo of Ben J (born Earl Benjamin) and Legacy (Dominic Thomas) met as freshmen at Hesperia High School in San Bernardino County. Both were part of the same extra large rap group, but then each left to become solo artists. With their October birthdays only a day apart, they pooled their gift money to buy rudimentary recording equipment. After Legacy transferred to a new school, they decided to combine forces as New Boyz, creating a sound, slang and fashion sense that’s made them the biggest hip-hop group to emerge from L.A. in years.

While “You’re a Jerk” has helped bring New Boyz global recognition, the song has also shown a spotlight on Los Angeles’ growing, and teen-driven, jerk music movement. Jerk music is a stripped down party sound, largely created on home computers for kids with crazy haircuts, and has been building in popularity around the city for years. The neon bright video for “You’re a Jerk” features appearances from many of the rubber-limbed dance crews associated with the scene. In fact, it was these dancers that helped popularize the song in the first place, taking it from MySpace to YouTube and eventually gaining the attention of radio DJs. “We just did ‘You’re a Jerk’ as another song, the fans are the ones that did all the promoting,” says Ben J. “They started making jerk video after jerk video after jerk video to it.”

Though “You’re a Jerk” is the first single from Skinny Jeanz And A Mic, their forthcoming album on Asylum/Warner Brothers, New Boyz is bigger than just one sound. “People think we only do jerk music, but we do a whole lot of everything,” says Legacy. “The album’s about the typical teenage life.” For instance, “Colorz” finds them repping the colorful clothing worn by today’s youth, while “Tie Me Down” takes on girls who are overeager to lock them down in relationships.

Though Skinny Jeanz & A Mic features the sonic imprint of modern movements like hyphy and Atlanta’s own teen rap madness, it’s also heavily influenced by the minimal bass and drum machine sound from hip-hop’s earliest days. While Legacy handled the distinctive production on half of the album, including “You’re a Jerk,” initially this move was done out of necessity. “I knew if we didn’t make our own beats, we’d have to pay people, and we didn’t have any money at the time,” says Legacy. “I had to teach myself to make beats. I’d watch YouTube for tutorials.”

For the rest of the album, New Boyz are going into the studio with Diplo, the internationally respected DJ and producer responsible for MIA’s “Paper Planes,” but are also working with other young L.A. producers including JHawk, Jukebox, Talent and Jay-Nari. The results only enhance Skinny Jeanz And A Mic’s celebration of teenage talent. “They’re kids like us,” says Legacy.
