Digital World Lyrics


Surfin' for love, spelling my heart out
Somewhere real far out in a digital world
Messages to start my day
Been sitting on my bus since Wednesday
Tried to hit you on your two way
Your mailbox was full all the way
We can meet tonight by satellite
What about half past midnight
I should just be off my flight
But for now I'll just dance and think about you
Electric love, electric light, electric life
Electric love, electric light, electric life
Let's just freak out, freak out, freak out
Me and you all alone
Freak out, freak out, freak out
But how we gonna freak off over the phone
I thought we were supposed to have a date
I guess he couldn't help but be late

It's okay I had to go
I had this conference call at 4 you know
I'm glad you paged me to say sorry
'Cause I know your thinking of me
Don't worry baby I'm not angry
'Cause for now I'll just dance and think about you
Electric love, electric light, electric life
Freak out, freak out, freak out
Me and you all alone
Freak out, freak out, freak out
But how we gonna freak off over the phone
Sugar we can do whatever tonight
Whatever you like but first darling
Can we get our jig on get our swig on?
Head back to our crib, before these niggas get to drawin' up in here
Please mind me for asking, have you ever had
Sex with a person with no attachments?
And the heat of the moment one night of passion
Nothing but a whole lot of grinding and grabbing
Moanin' and groaning till six in the morning
By the time you rolling over yawning
You'll be hearing my car door slamming and Perelli's ballin'
Coltrane daddy for short honeysuckle bartender
E and J on the rocks make it a double by the way if I might say
You're looking quite ravishing in your Prada apparel
From the shoes to the bags you're lucky I don't rob your ass dear
Cut to the chase, gimme your pin number and let's get outta here, yeah
Surfin' for love, spelling my heart out
Somewhere real far out in a digital world
Electric love, electric light, electric life
Electric love, electric light, electric life
Surfin' for love, spelling my heart out
Somewhere real far out in a digital world
Surfin' for love, spelling my heart out
Somewhere real far out in a digital world
Surfin' for love, spelling my heart out
Somewhere real far out in a digital world

Kelis Rogers-Jones (born Kelis Rogers on August 21, 1979), is known simply by her first name Kelis (pronounced Kuh-lees). Her name is an amalgamation of her parents' first names, her black father Kenneth and Chinese-Puerto Rican mother Eveliss. Growing up in Middle Class Harlem, New York Kelis' childhood was not a deprived one. But she was not without problems, after her parents realised they could not cope with her unruly behaviour (Kelis shaved all her hair off at age 13, soon afterwards dyeing the regrowth the colors of the rainbow), Kelis moved out of the family home, continuing her private education.

After a short spell working as a model, 5'10" Kelis began appearing on songs by Neptunes produced rappers such as 'Got Your Money' by the late rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard. Soon afterwards, she released her debut album, Kaleidoscope in 1999 of which the first single was 'Caught Out There,' a song based on the time she caught her boyfriend cheating on her, and she beat him. The video feautures Kelis leading a pack of angry women down the street screaming 'I hate you so much right now!'. The album was released in USA, Europe and Asia, but did not find much audience in the USA. Not a great success, it only sold 249,000 copies to date.

After finding her largest audience in Europe, Kelis released her second album titled Wanderland (2001) in Europe only, which like her first album did not fare well. It only sold 80,000 copies and was entirely produced by The Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) again, similarly to her debut. Only one single was released 'Young Fresh N New'.

In 2003 Kelis finally found fame in her country with the single 'Milkshake,' which was a massive success in Europe, Asia and USA, and she began dating rapper Nas (born Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones). The single was from the album 'Tasty' which did not feature the Neptunes as heavily as her previous albums. Singles included the popular Dallas Austin produced 'Trick Me' and 'Millionaire', a collaboration with OutKast's Andre 3000. 'In Public's duet with Nas was the fourth single from the album, becoming a top twenty hit in the U.K. without a video.

In 2006, Kelis presented a new album to her fans, entitled Kelis Was Here, which was originally to be called 'The Puppeteer' which was released on 22 August but was due Fall 2005. No Neptunes tracks appeared on this album, but Kelis used other producers such as Max Martin, will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas) and Raphael Saadiq. Singles are the huge 'Bossy', 'Blindfold Me', and 'Lil Star'. Kelis wrote more of the material on this album than she did for Tasty, and carries off the sci-fi, electronica sounds so often considered Neptunes material without them. This is most evident on the brilliant 'Trilogy'. Kelis has said she wants to make her mark with this album, as it will be the last 'album like this' she will make.

In October 2007, Kelis was dumped by Jive Records, for poor sales of Kelis Was Here but a new album is in the pipeline. The Hits - a greatest hits collection - was released in March 2008, including tracks where she was a featured artist, eg, Got Your Money by Ol' Dirty Bastard , N.E.R.D's Truth or Dare, and Richard X's Finest Dreams.

Kelis is currently signed to Interscope records and released in 2010 an album entitled Flesh Tone, the first single from which was the David Guetta-produced Acapella.

Songfacts reports that 'Distance', the first single from Kelis’ sixth studio album received its first play during the June 30, 2012 show of The Beatnik Mix on London's Reprezent 107.3FM.

In the beginning of 2010, Kelis received a letter by animal rights organization PETA, in which she was informed about the cruelty that comes along with the production of fur coats. In her Myspace blog, she mocked PETA and stated that she would go on wearing fur, referencing several fur coats she had made from her pet dogs.
