Like it’s payday
La, la, la, la vida loca

Just when you think it’s over
We be on another level like we doing yoga
My love is toxic

Have fun if that what’s you want
We could go wherever you want girl, want girl
Bubble it if that what’s you want
Have a drink if that what’s you want
You could have anything you want girl

No Doubt

No Doubt formed in Anaheim, California in 1986. They have created a decade-defining style and have arguably become one of the most recognized bands of their time. The band has consisted of vocalist and frontwoman Gwen Stefani, guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, as well as several former members—including Gwen’s older brother Eric Stefani.

They found mainstream success following the release of their third studio album Tragic Kingdom in late 1995. It eventually landed at the top of the Billboard charts in 1996, and has sold over 8 million copies as of 2012.
