[Intro]
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
(What's wrong with me?)
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
(Why do I feel like this?)
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
(I'm goin' crazy now)
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum

[Verse 1]
No more gas in the rig (Can't even get it started)
Nothin' heard, nothin' said (Can't even speak about it)
All my life on my head (Don't wanna think about it)
Feels like I'm goin' insane, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a thief in the night to come and grab you (Aha!)
It can creep up inside you and consume you (Aha!)
A disease of the mind, it can control you (Aha!)
It's too close for comfort, ah

[Chorus]
Put on your brake lights
You're in the city of wonder
Ain't gon' play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter, be wise

[Post-Chorus]
Your mind's in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia, am I scarin' you tonight?
Your mind's in disturbia, ain't used to what you like
Disturbia, disturbia

[Refrain]
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum

[Verse 2]
Faded pictures on the wall
It's like they talkin' to me
Disconnected, no one calls
The phone don't even ring
I gotta get out, or figure this shit out
It's too close for comfort, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a thief in the night to come and grab you (Aha!)
It can creep up inside you and consume you (Aha!)
A disease of the mind, it can control you (Aha!)
I feel like a monster, oh

[Chorus]
Put on your brake lights
You're in the city of wonder (City lights)
Ain't gon' play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice (Think twice)
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter, be wise (Be wise)

[Post-Chorus]
Your mind's in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia, am I scarin' you tonight?
Disturbia, ain't used to what you like (What you like)
Disturbia, disturbia

[Refrain]
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum (Disturbia)
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum (Oh-oh)

[Bridge]
Release me from this curse I'm in
Tryin' to maintain, but I'm strugglin'
If you can't go, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I think I'm gonna ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

[Chorus]
Put on your brake lights
You're in the city of wonder
Ain't gon' play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
(Better think twice) Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter, be wise
(So if you must falter, be wise)

[Post-Chorus]
Your mind's in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia, am I scarin' you tonight?
Disturbia, ain't used to what you like
Disturbia, disturbia

[Refrain]
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum
Bum bum be-dum, bum bum be-dum bum

Rihanna

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
