You've got to trust your instinct and let go of regret
You've got to bet on yourself now star
'Coz that's your best bet
Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said
We come with the funky style
That gets us known for the show
And we'll mix the hip hop reggae if we say it is so
And fuck the naysayers 'coz they don't mean a thing
'Coz this is what style we bring
Now it's morning but last night's on my mind
There's something I need to get off my chest
And no matter what may come to shine
The dream will always be mine
All mixed up you don't know what to do
Next thing you turn around and find the person is you
Thought a freak might be the thing
But the first could be the last so just get off your ass
All mixed up you don't know what to do
Next thing you turn around and find the person is you
Thought a freak might be the thing
But you know this will pass so just get off your ass
You've got to trust your instinct and let go of regret
You've got to bet on yourself now star
'Coz that's your best bet
Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said
Sick sick bit got to have it
Like bustin' in on a session but you got to call it quits
Sick sick bit just can't quit
Fact that you don't even know makes it fully legit
Now it's morning but last night's on my mind
There's something I need to get off my chest
And no matter what will come to shine
The dream will always be mine
You keep me coming
That is a gal that'll kill 'dem stunning
Keep me coming
That is a gal that'll kill 'dem stunning
Keep me coming
That is a gal that'll kill 'dem stunning
Keep me coming
That is a gal that'll kill 'dem stunning
You make me nervous throat dry
My brain is empty don't know why
But I saw you doing something
Which is really truly nothing
But you could bust me out all day
Many moons since first I saw you
Many moons since first we did the do
Many moons since first I saw you
Many moons since first we did the do
And why did I try when I knew it was no and
Why did I try when I saw it was so
But save it for late we should just let it skate
'Coz the waiting feel is fine
You've got to bet on yourself now star
'Coz that's your best bet
Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said
We come with the funky style
That gets us known for the show
And we'll mix the hip hop reggae if we say it is so
And fuck the naysayers 'coz they don't mean a thing

There's something I need to get off my chest
And no matter what may come to shine

All mixed up you don't know what to do

About"All Mixed Up" is a single released by 311. It was on the album 311, also known as The Blue Album. This album was released in 1995 and later went triple platinum, selling over 3 million copies worldwide. The song was co-written by Douglas Vincent "SA" Martinez and Nick Hexum. The duo first started working on the song during the 311 tour supporting Grassroots. After the tour Martinez wrote the lyrics about feeling "confused and being unfaithful" and Hexum took the song's title from an early Elvis Presley interview in which Elvis claimed he was "all mixed up" over his new-found fame.
The band often performs a rearranged version of the song that appears on setlists as "All Re-Mixed Up."
The music video is filmed in New York City, and it features the band going into a massage parlour, in a taxi cab, and even performing the song in front of a small audience in an apartment.
Blake Lewis, the runner-up on the sixth season of American Idol, sang a cover of "All Mixed Up" on March 6, 2007, telling host Ryan Seacrest afterwards that 311 was his all-time favourite band. Idol judges Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul were not familiar with the song. Hexum said his phone was "ringing off the hook" after Lewis' performance.
This song uses elements of the Stalag riddim and also begins with a sample from reggae artist Yellowman's song Mister Chin on the album Mister Yellowman.
