First! Seriously, The Songery has that brilliance that came with the 80's and 90's MTV generation of music. Give this song and artist some love. Play it everywhere!

I am not my skin, this body that I’m in betrays who I am. 
Think what you will of me, you judge who I can be on pigment and collagen.

Rate how supple is my pride, how robust is my backside. 
Won’t succumb to every prick and prong maneuver that you run by me.
 Remember that I’m strong- just cuz I cry don’t mean I’m wrong, just means I care and I’m frustrated all my pores are dilated.

I’ll never be prom queen. 
I’ll never join the pageantry. 
I’ll never wave my hand with a grace akin to mannequins.
 I’ll never be prom queen. 
I’m just not fit for flattery.
 I’ll never parade or masquerade for what you deem is perfection.

So go on rate the volume of my lips, how fem I am based on my hips,
 how kind I am based on my smile- never mind a tact called guile. 
You judge competence on gait, how fit I am based on my weight, 
judge my insight on my faith- oh you’re so intu just you wait. You let age determine youth, base beauty on physical attributes.
 Well aren’t you in for a deception, it’s not more than presentation 
(that’s why)

I’ll never be prom queen.
 I’ll never join the pageantry.
 I’ll never wave my hand with a grace akin to mannequins. 
I’ll never be prom queen.
 I’m just not fit for flattery.
 I’ll never parade or masquerade for what you deem is perfection.

Just like the little kid inside me said, I’ll see it to the end. 
Put your back into it, get right to it- you’ll come out ahead.
 Say I’m too old to act so young-
 what do you expect from slapping tongue
 I set myself to an endeavor, I’ll get by because I’m clever.
 I don’t need your damn tiara to know the worth of my persona.

I’ll never be prom queen. 
I’ll never join the pageantry.
 I’ll never wave my hand with a grace akin to mannequins. 
I’ll never be prom queen.
 I’m just not fit for flattery. 
I’ll never parade or masquerade for what you deem is perfection.

I’ll dance with my teeth in my hand, my eyes in my head, I’ll smile at you while I cry tears inside wishing I was dead.
All this sells my “beauty” and my “smarts” never mind what’s in my heart.
 You’re all mad, simply silly, make these dresses nice and frilly.

"Pop-shattering...Genre-defying." - Ladygunn
"MUNNYCAT is pushing good vibes, sonically speaking." - Milk
"Eclectic yet infectious...The production shines bright." - New Noise
"Stomping." - The 405
"An easy bop with a nonchalant attitude that also just happens to be fully fleshed out." - Earmilk
 "MUNNYCAT make infectious electronic pop music, blending hip-hop inspired beats with warped textured sounds." - The Line of Best Fit

LA duo MUNNYCAT are back with another technicolor pop bop, "don't stop (drip drip drop)." It's an ode to the magical anything-can-happen vibes of the San Fernando Valley, driven by an unflinching, bratty synth melody, jangling guitars, and shape-shifting vocals over an easy-paced but utterly infectious beat.

MUNNYCAT says about "don't stop (drip drip drop)," "We wanted to make a song that was reminiscent of those dreamy, sexy summer nights that we've experience living [in the San Fernando Valley].  It's a hypnotic, girl-crush, keep-the-party-going song about those times where you see someone across the room and you just have to know who they are."

"don't stop" follows the singles "Go-Go A-Go-Go," an energetic amalgamation of sonic influences like surf rock, golden age hip-hop, and bossa nova; and the car-rattling, big beat-inspired "Check It," which earned instant praise from Milk, Ladygunn, Line of Best Fit, and Earmilk.

Since their last release, MUNNYCAT's music has been featured in a New Balance ad announcing the return of the classic 997s that's already racked in 2 million views, adding to their 100+ other commercial syncs which include Fenty Beauty, eBay, Google, and Target.

 MUNNYCAT is, in its totality, a two-person project; the well-seasoned producers (and real-life couple) that go by the names K808 + Khaledzou write, produce, and shoot and edit their own videos together, lending new meaning to the phrase 'dynamic duo.'

Lyrics: 
We have conversations
I have conversations with myself
With someone else

Staring into nothing 
Staring out at something 
I'm not there, im everywhere

And when I go back 
Back to the start 
First time feels so far away 
Far away

I’m just a little messed up
I’m a little out of my head
Looks like I get along fine
But most the time I’m just scared
I’m just a little messed up
And I think that that's ok
I’m just a little messed up
I’m just a little messed up 
You have expectations 
I have expectations every night 
All the time 
Better off pretending 
Better to be spending time alone 
Without my phone

And when I go back 
Back to the start 
Hindsight feels so far away 
Far away

I’m just a little messed up
I’m a little out of my head
Looks like I get along fine
But most the time I’m just scared
I’m just a little messed up
And I think that thats ok
I’m just a little messed up
I’m just a little messed up 

And when I go back 
Back to the start 
First time feels so far away 
Far away 
Go back back to the start
Hindsight feels so far away 
Far away

I’m just a little messed up
I’m a little out of my head
Looks like I get along fine
But most the time I’m just scared
I’m just a little messed up
And I think that that's ok
I’m just a little messed up
I’m just a little messed up

Messed Up
