## Lyrics

Feel the distortion

Cut through your veins

Fuck it up, fuck it up now

Crush me with the 808's

Ceilings are breaking

So high we could fly

Make it rough, make it rough now

Forget about a reason why

We are one and the same

Dancing close to the edge

Feel the hit your brain

Take it right to the head

(Distortion)

We do what we want, turn that shit on

Cause I wanna feel more than I ever felt before

(Distortion)

We do what we love, turn that shit up

(Distortion)

Cause I wanna feel more, more, more

(Make, make, make, make, make it rough now)

Now that we're moving

Cut to the chase

Fuck it up, fuck it up now

Let the rhythm penetrate

Just what we needed

So sweet to the taste

Make it rough, make it rough now

Let's blow it away

We are one and the same

Dancing close to the edge

Feel the hit your brain

Take it right to the head

(Distortion)

We do what we want, turn that shit on

Cause I wanna feel more than I ever felt before

(Distortion)

We do what we love, turn that shit up

Cause I wanna feel more than I ever felt before

(Distortion)

We do what we want (distortion), turn that shit on

Cause I wanna feel more (distortion) than I ever felt before

(Distortion)

We do what we love, turn that shit up

(Distortion)

Cause I wanna feel more, more, more

(Make, make, make, make it rough now)

Cause I wanna feel more than I ever felt before

(Distortion)

I'm Done

## *Doll Domination* Chronology

**"I'm Done"** is a song by The Pussycat Dolls. It serves as the closing track to the standard edition of *Doll Domination*.

## Lyrics

I wasn't looking for this

What is this

I don't know

You know I was doing just fine

By myself

On my own

Tell me how to stop this feeling

I don't want to fall in love

Just want to have a little fun

Then you came and swept me up and now I'm done so done

Falling madly deeply I

Surprise myself enough to find

That what's become this love and now I'm done so done, I'm done

Yeah

I can't imagine right now

Standing here, without you

To think that I tried to ignore

What I felt, what I knew

I could never, stop this feeling

I don't want to fall in love

Just want to have a little fun

But then you came and swept me up and now I'm done so done

Falling madly deeply I

Surprise myself enough to find that what's become this love and now I'm done so done, I'm done

Yeah

Thank you for not letting go

When I said

Let me go

Thank you for timing, thank you for finding

Thank you for not believing me baby when I said

I don't want to fall in love

Just want to have a little fun

But then you came and swept me up and now I'm done so done

Falling madly deeply I

Surprise myself enough to find that what's become this love, and now I'm done so done, I'm done

Yeah

I wasn't looking for this, and now I'm done, I'm done.

## Background

After leaving The Pussycat Dolls, Thornton started releasing her own music, eventually releasing her first mixtape, *P.O.Y.B.L.*. The Dolls reunited for a performance on *The X Factor: Celebrity*, but Thornton chose not to rejoin the group. Thornton spoke to *ET* about discussing rejoining, saying:

"We definitely talked about it.  We kicked around the idea. I had people on my team saying, ‘Oh, I'd hate for you to miss out on a cash grab, or an opportunity.’ I don't, I'm so sorry, I don't want to live my life, you know, on a cash grab.  And if that makes me stupid to some people, it makes me stupid.  If it seems really brave, and that's a challenging thing to face and to also, you know, but to move forward, then OK, then let’s go with that."

Thornton spoke to *Rap-Up* on creating the EP: "My focus and ambition for this project was to create more of a musical identity as an artist. I also wanted to design and curate–not just write–great songs...

I want people to listen to this the way we listened to albums in the in the ’90s. There’s a flow from beginning to end. It tells a story."

Conceptually, the music video is thought to show a sense of magic and belief. The limitations that society pushes on to us forces us to neglect things that are learned outside of the regular information streams. Going to your magical place is something that is attainable when you open your mind and find the truth.

## Lyrics

You make me feel high when I feel low

Take away my pain, make it no more

Make me feel good all over

Take over my body if you want to

You can change my life if I let you

Things ain't the same when I miss you

I go out of my way just to have you

Put it all on the line if I have to

Cause I, I, I love this feeling you give to me

And I, I, I want this feeling forever

Cause I, I, I love this feeling you give to me

And I, I, I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

I love this feeling

I probably won't sleep 'til tomorrow evening

Fucking with you would be bad for my health

You make me happy when I'm out of breath

And I know, I should probably leave you

But I always run back cause I really need you

And if I lost it all, I'mma lose it, I love the way you do me

Cause I, I, I love this feeling you give to me

And I, I, I want this feeling forever

Cause I, I, I love this feeling you give to me

And I, I, I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

I want this feeling forever

(I want this feeling forever)

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

I want this feeling forever

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

You make me feel high

I want this feeling forever

## Lyrics

**Nicole:**

They where tryin' to tell me somethin'

Hope that I was hearing nothing

When they said that you was just playin' me

I didn't listen, I didn't want to

You couldn't find a blinder fool

I'm here, searching through the wreakage

Wondering why the message never got through

And I've found, I misplaced all my faith

How could I put my faith in you?

**Nicole (with Carmit):**

(How many times, how many lies?)

How long you been sleepin'?

How long you been creepin' around?

(How many lies, how many times?)

Were you here deceivin'

While I was here believin' in you

**Nicole (Carmit):**

Gotta put the blame on my self

Should have known that everyone knew

Knew that you were just bad news

I shoulda walked out (shoulda walked out)

Shoulda have seen clear (shoulda seen clear)

Lied, you sad ass right is outta here

I've gone, and thrown out all the records

All the ones that ever reminded me of you

I've gone, and torn up all the pictures

Cause there was not one shred of truth

**Nicole (with Carmit):**

(How many times, how many lies?)

How long you been sleepin'?

How long you been creepin' around?

(How many lies, how many times?)

Were you here deceivin'

While I was here believin' in you

**Carmit (with Nicole):**

There was so many times

There was so many lies

I don't know why I stayed around

There was so many days so, many games

(I should of thrown you sad ass out)

Only the dumbest fool would ever trust in you

I finally got wise

(I opened up my eyes)

The game is over

**Nicole:**

I've gone, and thrown out all the records

All the ones that ever reminded me of you

I've gone, and torn up all the pictures

Cause there was not one shred of truth

**Nicole (with Carmit):**

(How many times, how many lies?)

How long you been sleepin'?

How long you been creepin' around?

(How many lies, how many times?)

Were you here deceivin'

While I was here believin' in you

(How many times, how many lies?)

How long you been sleepin'?

How long you been creepin' around?

(How many lies, how many times?)

Were you here deceivin'

While I was here believin' in you

Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me

I've been an awful good girl

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a 54 convertible too, light blue

I'll wait up for you dear

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

**Ashley:**

Think of all the fun I've missed

Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed

Next year I could be just as good

If you'd check off my Christmas list

Santa baby, I wanna yacht and really that's not

A lot I've been an angel all year

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

**Jessica:**

Santa baby, there's something I really do need, the deed

To a platinum mine

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks

Sign your 'X' on the line

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

**Ashley:**

Come and trim my Christmas tree

With some decorations bought at Tiffany's

**Jessica:**

I really do believe in you

Let's see if you believe in me

**Carmit:**

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring

I don't mean on the phone

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

**The Pussycat Dolls:**

Santa baby, hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa Baby, hurry tonight
Eggman Nega

**Dr. Eggman Nega** is a future version of Dr. Eggman.

## History

Eggman Nega is a very cruel human that is a descendant of Doctor Eggman from the distant future. He has also traveled to Blaze's dimension to cause havoc. Although Eggman and Nega have worked together, they are usually rivals against each other. Nega is good at disguising himself as Eggman. He is eerily polite and can lose track of important details while making unnecessarily long speeches. He is also slightly more unstable than Eggman and does not have the slightest mercy for the world.
Fever

**"Fever"** is a song originally by Little Willie John. The song has been covered by many artists, most notably by Peggy Lee, whose 1958 rendition became the most widely known version of "Fever" and the singer's signature song. Lee's version contained rewritten lyrics different from the original and an altered music arrangement. The song was sung by Carmit Bachar and Melody Thornton with Kimberly Wyatt, Ashley Roberts, and Jessica Sutta dancing backup live on the PCD World Tour. After Carmit's departure, Melody sung both verses when the song was performed. In an very early performance, the song was sung by Carmit, Nicole, and Melody.

## Lyrics

**Carmit:**

Never know how much I love you

Never know how much I care

When you put your arms around me

I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever when you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever, fever, fever

Fever all through the night

Yeah I'm on fire

Got me burning up inside

**Melody:**

Romeo loved Juliet

Juliet she felt the same

When he put his arms around her

He said Julie, baby, you're my flame

Give me fever

Fever when you hold me tonight

Fever all through the night

Give me fever all through the night

Give me fever all through the night

Pussycats

Baby won't you take me out of this club

I wanna be with you

Baby let me take you out of this club

I make your dreams come true

Baby won't you take me out of this club

I wanna be with you

I smiled enough

I posed enough

Got freaky enough

Took pictures enough

Conversated enough

I sipped enough

I see a cute boy chilling in some jeans and Tims

I think i like him and i just might leave this club with him

And his swagger tight, i'm feeling the tattoos on him

Make me wanna, wanna, wanna got with him

VIP like "Hey"

Dissing with my girls like "Hey"

Then i call him off to meet me

I couldnt resist, so sexy

DJ get on the mic

And make them ... from the front to the rear

Yall ain't gotta go home

but you gotta get the hell up outta here

Baby won't you take me out of this club

Baby let me take you out of this club

I make your dreams come true

Baby won't you take me out of this club

I wanna be with you

I partied enough

I sweated enough

I stuttered enough

I flossed enough

I snapped enough

Two step enough

Now I want this awesome woman up in this club

And i like her and I wanna leave this club with her

Ever since the mama broke it down to the floor

I say she ready she ready she ready to go, to go

Then i got behind her like "hey"

She pushed it on me like "hey"

And she ain't scared to get dirty

Even though she's so pretty purdy

DJ get on the mic

And give us head from the front to the rear

Yall ain't gotta go home

but you gotta get the hell up outta here

Baby won't you take me out of this club

I wanna be with you

Baby let me take you out of this club

I make your dreams come true

Baby won't you take me out of this club

I wanna be with you

I Say Yes (song)

## *I Say Yes* Chronology

**"I Say Yes"** is the title track of Jessica Sutta's debut album. The song was released as the third single on February 24, 2017 from the album and features Rico Love.

## Background and composition

The song was released a few days before her album dropped on March 3, 2017. *Billboard* suggested the lyrics connected Sutta's story as a backup dancer. Sutta told *Billboard* that the inspiration behind the song was she was often told "no". “Every day we are told ‘no’ to our dreams, ‘no’ to our ambitions, ‘no’ to our ideas and excitement. ‘I Say Yes’ is about unwavering determination and faith in yourself…The meaning behind this song really hit home with me and when it came time to name the album it was just the clear-cut choice that probably represents a journey relatable to most.”

## Lyrics

I say, I say yes

Even when the world says no

I say, I say yes

When you're high, and when you're low

When you're high, and when you're low

When you're high, and when you're low

I say, I say yes

When you've got nowhere to go

I say, I say yes

When the world falls down around ya

And when those dark clouds surround ya

When the water tries to drown ya

Yeah I say, I say yes

There's no limit to what I'll do

I feel your energy

You're gone it's killing me

And all your enemies

Become my enemies

That means all your issues

Become my issues

Long as I'm with you

I'll never forget you

I say, I say yes

Even when the world says no

I say, I say yes

When you're high, and when you're low

When you're high, and when you're low

When you're high, and when you're low

I say, I say yes

When you've got nowhere to go

I say, I say yes

When the world falls down around ya

And when those dark clouds surround ya

When the water tries to drown ya

Yeah I say, I say yes

There's no limit to what I'll do

To what I'll do

I say, I say yes

Even when the world says no

I say, I say yes

When you're high, and when you're low

I say, I say yes

Even when the world says no

I say, I say yes

When you've got nowhere to go

I say, I say yes

I feel your energy

You're gone it's killing me

And all your enemies

Become my enemies

That means all your issues

Become my issues

Long as I'm with you

I'll never forget you

I say, I say yes

## Lyrics

When marimba rhythms start to play

Dance with me, make me sway

Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore

Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze

Bend with me, sway with ease

When we dance you have a way with me

Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor

Dear, but my eyes will see only you

Only you have that magic technique

When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins

Long before it begins

Make me thrill as only you know how

Sway me smooth, sway me now

Sway me, make me

Thrill me, hold me

Bend me, ease me

You have a way with me

Sway with me

Sway (sway) (Sway)

Other dancers may be on the floor

Dear, but my eyes will see only you

Only you have that magic technique

When we sway I go weak

I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins

Long before it begins

Make me thrill as only you know how

Sway me smooth, sway me now

Make me thrill as only you know how

Sway me smooth, sway me now

Make me thrill as only you know how

Sway me smooth, sway me now

Sway me

Sway me

Sway me now
Big Spender

"**Big Spender**" is a song written by Cy Coleman and Dorothy Fields for the musical *Sweet Charity*, first performed in 1966. Peggy Lee was the first artist to record the song for her album of the same name also that year. It is sung, in the musical, by the dance hostess girls; it was choreographed by Bob Fosse for the Broadway musical and the 1969 film. It is set to the beat of a striptease as the girls taunt the customers.

The song was performed many times, especially back while they were only a burlesque group. Special guests such as Christina Aguilera, Carmen Electra, and Gwen Stefani have performed the song with the group. After the group struck a deal with Interscope Records, the Dolls made their debut as a pop recording group with a live performance at the 2004 MTV Asia Awards. Melody Thornton lead the performance. The song would be added to the setlist for the Pussycat Dolls' second headlining tour, Doll Domination Tour. The song preceded a prerecorded video of Nicole Scherzinger giving a brief history of the Dolls and introducing the performance. A dance routine by members Jessica Sutta, Ashley Roberts, and Kimberly Wyatt followed the intro, leading into "Big Spender" being performed by Thornton.
Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go

## *PCD* Chronology

**"Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go"** is a song recorded by The Pussycat Dolls. It is a medley of "Tainted Love" by Gloria Jones and "Where Did Our Love Go" by The Supremes. The song is technically also a cover of the version sung by Soft Cell who did the medley the same way PCD did. This is one of the few songs where Carmit Bachar sings a full verse. The song is led by Nicole Scherzinger with ad libs by Melody Thornton. The song has been sung live a few times with Kaya Jones when she was still part of the group.

## Live performances

The song has been performed several times, a few of them being aired on television. When the group was still a 10-piece, they performed "Tainted Love" at VH1 with Carmen Electra in 2005, which then transitioned into a medley of "Leave Your Hat On" with Tom Goss. The song was then performed at Fashion Rocks.

In a rare performance in Russia, the song was performed after Carmit's departure from the group and the vocals were split between the remaining Dolls. Melody sung Carmit's verse, while Jessica, Ashley, and Kimberly sung the first pre-chorus that was previously sung by Nicole.

## Lyrics

**Nicole:**

Sometimes I feel I've got to run away

I've got to get away from the pain

You drive into the heart of me

The love we share seems to go nowhere

I think I've lost my light

For I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)

Now I run from you

This tainted love you've given

Give you all a girl could give you

Take my tears and that's not nearly all

Tainted love

Tainted love

**Carmit:**

Now I know I've got to run away

I've got to get away

You don't really want any more from me

To make things right

You need someone to hold you tight

And you'll think love is to pray

But I'm sorry, I don't pray that way

**Nicole:**

Once I ran to you (I ran)

Now I run from you

This tainted love you've given

Give you all a girl could give you

Take my tears and that's not nearly all

Tainted love

Tainted love

Don't touch me, please

I cannot stand it when you tease

I love you though you hurt me so

But I'm going to pack my things and go

**Melody:**

Tainted love (Oh)

Tainted love (Tainted love)

Tainted love (Tainted love)

Tainted love (Tainted love)

**Nicole:**

Tainted love

Baby, baby, baby, don't leave me

Ooh, please don't leave me all by myself

I've got this burning, yearning, yearning

Feeling inside me, ooh, deep inside me

And it hurts so bad

You came into my heart so tenderly

With a burning love that stings like a bee

And now that I surrender so helplessly

You now wanna leave, ooh, you want to meet me

Baby, baby, where did our love go?

Ooh, don't you want me

Don't you want me no more

Milk

**Milk** is a chao.

## History

Ending up in Dr. Eggman's Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park, Milk would be chased by Orbot and Cubot, who mistook him for a Wisp. However, he was saved by Sonic and was in deep gratitude to the hedgehog. Later, Milk met Cream and Cheese, where they were being chased by Cubot again. After Sonic saved them, Cream noticed their new Chao friend did not have a name. Tails suggested they called him "Tornado," but when the Chao did not like the name, Cream suggested calling him "Milk," a name the Chao approved of.
Emerl

**Emerl** is a Giozoid.

## History

Emerl is the most powerful Gizoid created by the Nocturnus Clan, but was left behind when the Nocturnus Clan was pulled into the Twilight Cage. About four thousand years later, Emerl was discovered by Professor Gerald Robotnik, who classified him as a superweapon. Gerald attempted to nullify his destructive programming, but failed. In an attempt to curb it, he gave it the same qualities as his creation, Shadow, and a soul based on that of his granddaughter, Maria Robotnik.

Genetics

**"Genetics"** is a song by Meghan Trainor. A remix version featuring The Pussycat Dolls appears on Trainor's album, *Treat Myself*.

## Background

Trainor revealed the collaboration came about when she bumped into Nicole Scherzinger whilst both artists were filming The Four and The Masked Singer respectively. Trainor sent the song to Scherzinger who liked it, and the pair agreed to collaborate on the song. At the time, The Dolls' reunion was not confirmed, so Scherzinger recorded the vocals for the group's part. Trainor elaborated in an interview with Billboard, saying that "she was saving ["Genetics"] for her album, and if it's true that they are coming back together, we can put 'Pussycat Dolls'" in the credits. Trainor had previous connections to the group, having sampled Ashley Roberts' song "Woman Up" for her own song of the same name included on her second major-label studio album Thank You (2016).
