"Maniac" Lyrics:

CHORUS
I don’t wanna dance with a Maniac
Cus the moment we touch it’s a heart attack
You know I love you honey
but you got me running “yaaaaa”
I could give a damn you’re a maniac
and you talking like a killer got me on my back
You know I love you honey
but you got me running yaaaaa

VERSE 1
I fell in love with her moonwalk
Dancing in the kitchen in her tube socks
I should of saw the signs but refused dog
How am I supposed to ever move on
Why is it so complicated
You said that you didn’t love me
Said you’re workin on yourself
You aint been to therapy since 2020
Something isn’t right
See it in your eyes
Always give advice, never taking mine when I say goodnight
Im thinkin’ ooh ooh ooh ooh
you get on my nerves
I'm a foo ooh ooh ool
you better reimburse
All the things you do ooh ooh
put me in a hearse
We both coo coo, coo coo
it's never gonna work

CHORUS

VERSE 2
I think we need some space
I think we need a break
I think I need to move
I think this isn’t safe
Why the hell you follow me to Walmart
Gotta know everything you ain’t Nardwuar
Dress up on Friday nights
Turn up til Sunday morning
I’m mister probably right
Ignoring all the warnings
I shouldn’t wanna kick it
Too many red flags
I knew you were problematic cus all of your ex’s are mad
Somehow I'm back in your arms
Told you get back in my car
I know you don’t really love me
You deserve acting awards
As long as the night is young
Go crazy I got your back
I'll be posted by the jukebox watching you dance

thinkin’ ooh ooh ooh ooh
you get on my nerves
I'm a foo ooh ooh ool
you better reimburse
All the things you do ooh ooh
Keep me down to earth
We’re both coo coo, coo coo
But somehow it works

#Macklemore #Maniac

[laviniaisaila]

This man has the face, the lyrics and the vibes of pure love. Thank you for spreading joy, love, kindness and gratitude with your music. If only more artists used their art to do the same, the world would definitely become a more positive, less hateful place ❤

[sanaeidris]

Art is an attitude and you are the attitude itself.

[Macklemore]

LESS THAN AN HOUR AWAY... WHO'S READY?!?!?

[chrysallis]

What i love the most about macklemore songs is the absolute energy of all involved. U can tell theyre having a blast performing. Makes me happy inside.

[germanylicious]

That guy's vocals are You could have not picked a better person for this song. So much harmony. I fucking love this

[charleskimson]

I love this song and I wish I could dance like that. It looks like so much fun!

[EdwardTravels]

Windser has a perfect voice for Macklemore. The background dancers were so fun 🤩

[SGNZ]

Just when you thought it couldn't get any better. I love the song. The first Macklemore concert I traveled half the country and went alone to the concert. Felt right at home between the fans.

[nmcg]

I've been on the biggest Macklemore binge lately and have come to realise that the man has provided the soundtrack to the happiest years of my life. He has a wonderful ability to somehow tie lightheartedness in with vulnerability and real honesty and wrap it up into dancefloor hits. Each song is a total bop. He is just fantastic and I really look forward to whenever he comes back to perform here in Ireland🥰😊

[gabriellaknittle]

How am I just hearing this song today?!? I’m so obsessed that I am listening to it on repeat. It’s perfect! I would love to do a song and music video with you!

[MattTheMortgageGuy]

This jam transcends generations. This could be a hit in the 70's, 80's or 2030, 2040's

[Will_Forge]

Not just a fantastic homage to Hey Ya! but a fantastic stand alone single. I love this. 😄

[Ryanrenolds]

This is officially my favorite song!! Never stop making your music ❤ The collab you did with windser was just ✨️AMAZING✨️!!!!

[effrumbobeffrum]

Brilliant. This has a really similar vibe to Hey-Ya. The song structure and pop sensibility really make this a solid summer anthem.

[genuisglt]

Love the OutKast reference in the music video. Glad you’re back Macklemore, saw you live once on Lollapaloozza in Berlin - you’re energy, your vitality and how fresh and clean you delivered your lines were gold - been too long, looking forward to the whole album 🐸

[emmalynne]

Retro vibes, my favorite color and Macklemore. What could be any better? Amazing, amazing, amazing! 💚💚💚

[luccaloguancio]

its 2022 and you are still giving us such good songs. My man is still giving his best through all his songs, mad respect 😩.

[grofeliz]

I did my entire workout just listening to this song by playing it back over and over again. It has that beat and energy to keep me focused. Keep em coming bruh 😜

[AntonioPerez]

Just saw you last night as the opening act for Imagine Dragons and you performed this song!! I was instantly hooked, this is such a great song and it’s addictive. I can’t wait for your new album to drop!!

[manda]

I have been listening to you from day one & I just want to say your music has helped me through so many hard times. My husband is 4 1/2 years clean of drugs and alcohol & is an artist as well. You give others the motivation to be different, and to write music that is heartfelt and touching. We randomly watched a bunch of your music videos tonight including this one. Otherside always makes me cry & it did again tonight. Thank you for making music that is fun, but also heartfelt. Forever your fan! 🤎🤎
