Waterfront
Sunshine
A little weed
A little red wine
Then come
The 5-0
Citation
It's illegal
We just wanna party
We don't mean no harm
Don't wanna hurt nobody
But they make it so hard
We just wanna party
Just wanna rock all night
Don't wanna hurt nobody
No need to be uptight
It's a crime
It's a crime
It's a crime
It's a crime
Backyard
Tunes right
Girls dancin'
In the moonlight
Then come
The one time
Regulation
Gotta pay the fine
We just wanna party
We don't mean no harm
Don't wanna hurt nobody
But they make it so hard
We just wanna party
Just wanna rock all night
Don't wanna hurt nobody
No need to be uptight
It's a crime
It's a crime
It's a crime
It's a crime
Pour up another shot of Hennessy, my tendency to start the party with
Probably hit that Bob Marley, I ain't with that Molly shit
Represent my nigga, bang your hood
Bloods and Crips in the same building, it's all good
I'm looking at this pretty fine thing rolling with her friend
Hoping I can make her mind change, jump inside my Benz
Let me get it crackin'
Conversation turn to plenty sexual frustration
Fuck-faces lookin' at her, hard not to be impatient
Oh, really though
You drink?
You smoke?
Get a case
Get a 8
Fly high, not coach
G5, sit back
I'll drive, let me know
On the couch
On the bed
On the floor
Say go
Say when
In the wind, we go
We toast, to the game
No games
We both, really grown
I'm sayin', you playin'
I mean, I dance
To my own beat, to the beat now flip your hands and
Let the smoke burn
Lets the smoke burn in your vein
When it's your turn hit it twice then say my name
Say my name, say my name
Mind game like Candyman
Dark chocolate, vanilla
I tell you this is Candy Land
This is candid camera, there's no pauses allowed
They don't understand us because we wont turn it down
Middle fingers in the air
This is truth and double dare
300 drunk muthafuckas in the holding cell
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
We just wanna party
We don't mean no harm
Don't wanna hurt nobody
But they make it so hard
We just wanna party
Just wanna rock all night
Don't wanna hurt nobody
No need to be uptight
We just wanna party
We don't mean no harm
Don't wanna hurt nobody
But they make it so hard
We just wanna party
Just wanna rock all night
Don't wanna hurt nobody
No need to be uptight
