[Chorus]
This place about to blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's time to kill the lights and shut the DJ down
Tonight we're taking over, no one's getting out

[Chorus]
This place about to blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to blow

[Verse 1]
Back door cracked, we don't need a key
We get in for free
No VIP sleaze
Drink that Kool-Aid, follow my lead
Now you're one of us
You're coming with me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
It's time to lose your mind and let the crazy out
(This place about to)
Tonight we're takin' names, 'cause we don't mess around
Dance

[Chorus]
This place about to
This place about to
This place about to
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Bridge]
Go-go-go-go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on 'em
Let me see them Hanes
Let me, let me see them Hanes
Go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on 'em
Let me see them Hanes
Let me, let me see them Hanes

[Interlude]
We are taking over
Get used to it, okay?

[Chorus]
Blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This place about to blow (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Blow
Blow

[Outro]

Kesha Rose Sebert, whose mononymous stage name was previously spelled Ke$ha, is an American singer-songwriter best known for hits like “Tik Tok” and “Praying.” Her mother, Pebe Sebert is also a songwriter, and the two have worked together on songs like “Learn to Let Go.”

In 2005, at age eighteen, Kesha signed a record deal with Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records. Her first major recording was an uncredited feature on Flo Rida’s 2009 hit “Right ‘Round,” which she recorded after walking into a session between Flo and Dr. Luke. She released her debut album, Animal, the next year, after choosing from hundreds of songs, and the record debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Lead single “Tik Tok” broke the record for the longest time for a female artist’s debut single to top the Billboard Hot 100.

Nine months after Animal dropped, Kesha rereleased it alongside Cannibal, an extended play featuring hits like “We R Who We R,” which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Blow.” In February 2011, Kesha kicked off her Get Sleazy Tour, which travelled through the Americas, Europe, and Australia. During the tour, she began writing for her sophomore album, Warrior, which was released in November 2012. She then embarked on a world tour, and was joined by future “Timber” collaborator Pitbull on the North American leg.
