[Intro]
Squad

[Verse 1: Shay Haley & Pharrell Williams]
Yeah, you're saying welcome to the jungle, yeah (Come on)
Got all this freedom in your room
Your mom's against the immigration
Your dad's against your right to choose

[Pre-Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
Screaming with saliva
Secret life of tigers
Bite your neck off bitch
You fucking with survivors
I understand it strangely
Welcome to what changed me
Credit card pay attention
Watch the mob get angry

[Chorus]
Are you mad right now? (hey)
Bite down, bite down
Are you tired right now? (hey, hey)
Pipe down, pipe down

Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
You know what day it is, right?
That alien life
They say it ain't right

[Refrain: Pharrell Williams]
I'm kinda afraid of here and after
Do you mind if it's me and you?
'Cause this room got more space than NASA
You serious, is that really your truth

This the madness
This the madness
This the madness
That they (Yea)

This the madness
This the madness
This the madness
That they (Yea)

This the madness
This the madness
This the madness
That they (Yea)

This the madness

[Chorus]
Are you mad right now?
Bite down, bite down
Are you tired right now? (where ya at? What ya doing?)
Pipe down, pipe down
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night
Say you up all night
Woo
You up all night

[Verse 3: Shay Haley]
You climbing up that skyladder
Ya, You feel like AC when it's June (Hey, hey, hey)
Your parents discriminate with the bathrooms (The fuck?)
Do they know these girls are in your room?

[Pre-Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
Screaming with saliva
Secret life of tigers
Bite your neck off bitch
You fucking with survivors
I understand it strangely
Welcome to what changed me
Credit card pay attention
Watch the mob get angry

[Chorus]
Are you mad right now?
Bite down, bite down
Are you tired right now? (hey, hey)
Pipe down, pipe down

[Bridge: Pharrell Williams]
Sensation, I've got it backwards
Society got you feelin' ass hurt (Hey, hey)
Get in, get out and get away (Skrt)
So, kids come home looking knackered (Hey, hey)

[Chorus]
Are you mad right now? (C'mon)
Bite down, bite down

Pipe down, pipe down

N.E.R.D. (officially stylized as NER*D, as seen on their covers) is a backronym that stands for No-One Ever Really Dies.

N.E.R.D. is a hip-hop and rock band whose members include Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, also known as The Neptunes, and Shae Haley. The band was formed as a side project by the Neptunes in 1999. Williams and Hugo had known each other since 1985 when they were 12, and they met Shae Haley a few years later in high school. Hugo and Williams signed a deal when they graduated high school in 1992 and eventually, Hailey joined them when N.E.R.D. was formed.

In September 2001 the band released their first album, In Search Of in Europe. They used digital production for the project but when they prepared for the worldwide release a year later they opted to re-record the album with a live funk rock band known as Spymob. Two years later in March of 2004, they released their second album, Fly or Die. Unfortunately, the two albums didn’t have nearly as much success as The Neptunes production work—collectively the two albums barely broke a million copies sold. In 2005 the group supposedly disbanded because of a dispute with Virgin Records, but Pharrell contradicted this claim in an April 2008
