Bonkers (feat. Armand Van Helden) Lyrics


I wake up everyday it's a daydream
Everythin' in my life ain't what it seems
I wake up just to go back to sleep
I act real shallow but I'm in too deepAnd all I care about is sex and violence
A heavy bass line is my kind of silence
Everybody says that I gotta get a grip
But I let sanity give me the slipSome people think I'm bonkers
But I just think I'm free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about meSome people pay for thrills
But I get mine for free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about meBonkersI wake up everyday it's a daydream
Everythin' in my life ain't what it seems
I wake up just to go back to sleep
I act real shallow but I'm in too deepAnd all I care about is sex and violence
A heavy bass line is my kind of silence
Everybody says that I got to get a grip

But I let sanity give me the slipBonkersSome people think I'm bonkers
But I just think I'm free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about meSome people pay for thrills
But I get mine for free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about meMmm, yeah, I'm back in the floor nowI wake up everyday it's a daydream
Everythin' in my life ain't what it seems
I wake up just to go back to sleep
I act real shallow but I'm in too deepAnd all I care about is sex and violence
A heavy bass line is my kind of silence
Everybody says that I got to get a grip
But I let sanity give me the slipBon, bon, bon, bon, bon, bon, bon, bonSome people think I'm bonkers
But I just think I'm free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about meSome people pay for thrills
But I get mine for free
Man, I'm just livin' my life
There's nothin' crazy about me

Dylan Mills, known professionally as Dizzee Rascal (born November 1, 1985), is a grime solo artist, formerly a Roll Deep crew member, who emerged from the UK Garage music scene. His music was a blend of garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga, with some more eclectic samples.

Dizzee began MCing on pirate radio and at raves at fifteen, but since his mainstream success he has distanced himself from the fledgling scene. Rascal grew up in the East End of London in south Bow in a council estate, raised by his single mother, a Ghanaian immigrant. Little is known about his father, though it is thought that he died when Mills was two. He attributes his musical development to a school teacher who allowed him to skip regular classes and spend time working on music on the school computers.

His music is an eclectic mixture of garage and hip-hop beats with an extremely broad palette of influences, ranging from metal guitars to found sounds, drill and bass synth lines, eclectic samples and even Japanese court music. His vocal performance is also distinctive, he uses a fast version of rapping (known as 'spitting') which blends elements from garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga.

Dizzee Rascal has numerous rivals within the Grime scene, mainly from the Bow, East London area. A notable rival of Dizzee Rascal is Crazy Titch who produced and recorded a diss called "Just An Arsehole" which used the backing track of Dizzee's record of "Jus A Rascal".

Dizzee Rascal has had international endorsements deals with urban brand Ecko and designed his own shoe with Nike. He has also worked with cross genre artist, Beck, on a remix of the song Hell Yes.

He released his first album in 2003, which was called Boy in da Corner. His second album Showtime was then later released in 2004. His third effort, Maths and English was released in 2007. He experienced commercial success in 2008 when Dance Wiv Me reached the number one spot in the UK charts.
