  • Drivin' around I've got my baby and my top down
    Mary-go-round I ride you for my love
    Throwin' me down in the backseat underground
    I'm on the mound I make it for my love

    Makin' my way I brake another L.A. day
    Time in the town I need it for my love
    My Chevrolet rollin' to another play day
    This is the sound I listen for my love

    Who, you talking to, talk to me you
    Sound of music

    Who, you talking to, talk to me you
    Sound of music

    I love you swim through me
    Good feelings come to me

    Sought and I found a life of makin my blood sound
    Do anything for the one I love
    Something profound the face of God is in Sensurround
    I'm on the mound I make it for my love

    Who, you talking to, talk to me you
    Sound of music

    Who, you talking to, talk to me you
    Sound of music

    I love you swim through me
    Good feelings come to me Writer/s: Anthony Kiedis, Chad Smith, John Anthony Frusciante, Michael Balzary

  • Derek from Auburn, CaI think he didn't like the meaning of the song not the actual song itself.
  • Jeff from Austin, TxI thought it was a pretty good song. Surprised to see that Kiedis didn't like it. He must have thought it didn't sound black enough.
