Banshee on my shoulder
And I ain’t gon’ get no sleep tonight
Says keep doing what I told ya
And the trouble is that she ain’t right
Tell ya get out of my way
Tell ya get out of my way
Don’t want to hear what you say
Don’t want to hear what you say
Banshee on my shoulder
And I ain’t gon’ get no sleep tonight

Step off the edge
Come on
Sweat it all out
Come on
Step off the edge
Come on
Work it all out
Come on

Let me play with fire tonight
Dancing through the siren, alright
Rip it up, I’ll have me a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
Let me keep on preachin’ to my choir
Will you take me down or push me higher
Rip it up, I’m having a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
I like what you’re doing to me
There’s something about it ok
Hey

Staring in the mirror
Yeah, I think I see you in the light
Hear a whisper tell me you’re nearer
Now if you leave me I’ll be petrified
Tell ya get out of my way
Tell ya get out of my way
Don’t want to hear what you say
Don’t want to hear what you say
Staring in the mirror
Yeah, I think I see you in the light

Step off the edge
Come on
Sweat it all out
Come on
Step off the edge
Come on
Work it all out
Come on

Let me play with fire tonight
Dancing through the siren, alright
Rip it up, I’ll have me a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
Let me keep on preachin to my choir
Will you take me down or push me higher
Rip it up, I’m having a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
I like what you’re doing to me
There’s something about it ok

Let me play with fire tonight
Dancing through the siren, alright
Rip it up, I’ll have me a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
Let me keep on preachin to my choir
Will you take me down or push me higher
Rip it up, I’m having a good time
There’s something about it ok
There’s something about it ok
I like what you’re doing to me
There’s something about it ok
Hey

Santi White (born September 25, 1976), better known by her stage name Santigold (formerly Santogold), is an American singer, songwriter, and producer. Her debut album Santogold was released to positive reviews in 2008. Her second album Master of My Make-Believe was released in April 2012.

As a solo project with a revolving door of members, the heart and face of Santigold is vivacious frontwoman Santi White. White and John Hill, her former counterpart from ska-punk band Stiffed, use their common backgrounds as production-savvy musicians to make bombastic, bass-oriented songs that fuse punk, reggae, grime, and indie rock with electro.

Little known fact is Santigold’s involvement in the music scene before she was Santigold. Here Black Thought and Dice Raw tell us how they knew her back in the day.
