Gwen Stefani - Slow Clap Lyrics

Gwen Stefani Lyrics

"Slow Clap"

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap

I'll be David, you Goliath
Set the rule and I'll defy it
You be angry, I'll be quiet
You be purple, I'm the violet
Take a ride 'cause I'm the co-pilot
I'm the ice cream, you're just the diet
Be the captain, I'll be the pirate
You're Billy the Kid, and I'll be the Wyatt

Are you rooting for me like I'm rooting for you?
Let me hear you get loud like surround sound

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Walk into the room like a boss
Slow clap
Putting on a little extra sauce
Slow clap

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Side stepping people down the hall
Slow clap
Winter, Spring or Summer or the Fall
Slow clap

Been the champion, rang the bell
Rocked the bottom, been through hell
Climbed the mountain, now I'm well
I just feel like coming back for the belt

I've been slipping and slipping
But now I'm back for double dipping
Who'm I kidding, I'm winning
My gentleman is for myself
I'm throwin' a Hail Mary to no one else
That's why I'm cheering for myself

(Come on)

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Walk into the room like a boss
Slow clap
Putting on a little extra sauce
Slow clap

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Side stepping people down the hall
Slow clap
Winter, Spring or Summer or the Fall
Slow clap

I don't wanna go to the back of the line
No, no, I put in my time
From the garage to the penthouse girls
Underdog to the top of the world

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Walk into the room like a boss
Slow clap
Putting on a little extra sauce
Slow clap

Clap, clap
Clap, clap, clap, clap
Clap de-clap de-clap clap
Slow clap
Side stepping people down the hall
Slow clap
Winter, Spring or Summer or the Fall
Slow clap

Woo
Been the champion, rang the bell
Rocked the bottom, been through hell
Oh, Winter, Spring or Summer or the Fall, no no

It's 5:44am
I surrender, amen
5:44am
I surrender, amen

"Slow Clap", premiered on March 12, 2021, was the second single from Gwen Stefani's fifth studio album. The song was written by Gwen Stefani, Ross Golan, and Luke Niccoli, the same team which wrote Stefani's previous single "Let Me Reintroduce Myself". Stefani explained in an interview for Apple Music, "It was a second song I wrote with Ross Golan and Luke Niccoli, right after Reintroduce Myself. I don't know if you can hear it, but they're like from the same world. [...] He [Golan] was like 'I woke up at 5:44am and I had this crazy idea and I sang it into my phone, then I went back to sleep and it was this idea titled 'Slow Clap.' And I was like, 'You're the weirdest guy ever.' And he was like, 'It's kinda like all those movies from 80s where you get like clap back to life.' Like yes, you're not the underdog! You're an awesome person!" "5:44" is included in these lyrics for a reason.
