Something 'bout you girl, you got me
Just let me love you, girl, don't stop me
Oh, that ass amazing

But you can be my lover", oh yeah

Fuck with me, watch the magic
Keep Chanel on your glasses
Eat the Swiss Alps for breakfast
Sleep with speech, wake up breathless
Mr club man, it's important
Think I left my soul down there
More than the one, man, she's a moment
The Mona Lisa, oh now, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Girl, you've been a bad, bad, bad, bad girl
You're giving me sexy eyes and you break that down
And you bring it right back up
And it's been on my mind for days
And we don't have to say no names

Too much cash in my wallet

And you like to get lit

Say it's all real, you legit
You ain't on no fake ass shit
No, no, no, no, no, girl
You've been a bad, bad, bad, bad girl
Giving me sexy eyes when you break it down
