4 Non Blondes was an American rock band from San Francisco, California, formed in 1989. The group was formed by bassist Christa Hillhouse, guitarist Shaunna Hall, drummer Wanda Day, and vocalist and guitarist Linda Perry. Prior to the release of their first album, Roger Rocha replaced Hall on guitar, and Dawn Richardson replaced Day on drums. They hit the charts in 1993 with "What's Up?", their only major hit single. Perry left the band in 1994 to begin a solo career, and the remaining members disbanded shortly after.

Bigger, Better, Faster, More! is the only studio album released by alternative rock band 4 Non Blondes, released in 1992. The first single was "Dear Mr. President", which bass player Christa Hillhouse told Songfacts "was about the hierarchy of power and government." The second single, What's Up?, became a #1 hit in several countries and went gold in the US.

Here i am and i'm waitin' on a chance to make it right

Every word you say makes my heart go bang bang

'Cause it sounds so nice

Well i've been alone

And you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the golden rule

Well i've been alone

And you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the way i like it

Let me take you away on the wings of my superfly

Maybe we'll celebrate all the room in the sky

Heaven knows we'll go boom boom boom

What can i do to get you in the mood

Baby i give up

I'm so misused and you're so confused

It's such a drag

Well i've been alone

And you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the golden rule

Well i've been alone and you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the way i like it

Let me take you away on the wings of my superfly

Maybe we'll celebrate all the room in the sky

Heaven knows we'll go boom boom boom

Here i am and i'm waitin' on a chance

To make it right

Do i turn you on or maybe i turn you off

Could you just decide

Well i've been alone

And you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the golden rule

Well i've been alone

And you've been a fool

Baby don't you know that's the way i like it

Let me take you away on the wings of my superfly

Maybe we'll celebrate all the room in the sky

Let me take you away on the wings of my superfly

Maybe we'll celebrate all the room in the skyheaven knows we'll go boom boom boom.
