Released: October 9, 2000
“Bodyrock” was the song both of my managers tried to get me to take off the record. They thought it was really tacky. They thought it sounded like a Fatboy Slim ripoff — which I guess it kind of did. I like it because the hip-hop sample was off the first mixtape I ever got, maybe in 1981, off of the Mr. Magic Show on WBLS. The guitar is directly inspired by “What We All Want” by Gang of Four. And I thought it was kind of funny to have an orchestral chorus on what is essentially a hip-hip song”. (c) Moby, RollingStone.com Read more on Last.fm.

[Verse 1]
She had something to confess to
But you don't have the time, so
Look the other way
You will wait until it's over
To reveal what you'd never shown her
Too little much too late
[Pre-Chorus]
Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world
[Chorus]
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give?
And I don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I'll do it on my own
[Verse 2]
I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I've made a big mistake
[Pre-Chorus]
Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world
[Chorus]
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give?
And I don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I'll do it on my own
She had something to confess to
But you don't have the time, so
Look the other way
You will wait until it's over
To reveal what you'd never shown her
Too little much too late
[Pre-Chorus]
Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world
[Chorus]
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give?
And I don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I'll do it on my own
[Verse 2]
I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I've made a big mistake
[Pre-Chorus]
Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world
[Chorus]
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give?
And I don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I'll do it on my own
