Hitting them high notes, nothing about you low key
Just let it register, body is unreal,
Was animated like Jessica Rabbit
A cartoon wanna stab like a harpoon
These dude is tryin to grind and

The thirst is so real you can see it all in they faces
Especially when you drop it low, baby you gotta know
Girl you be killin 'em fillin them with all kind of hopes
Dude on the block that be selling dope
by the shoes and the watch you can tell he broke
Tell him stop with the lies he tellin folks,

Celebrating, holding glasses up like Sara Palin nose
Love it in the club when the fellows go
but you hate that your hair gotta smell like smoke
They ask you what is hitting for
Nigga try to fix the prices, never dealt with chicks before
You ain't got your liquor license,

if dude is down to split and slice your pie
You like to master act all fly
Until he hit it right
Hey you girl with the tight upskirt,
In the back of the club where they light up purp
Known to drop it like a stripper, with her night off work
They make it rain and you stuff them dollars right in your, purse

Fill in the blank yeah shorty you been sippin alot
Fillin the drink as the seeks to your head

Throw another shot back as you race to forget
Yeah the night just started, we both parted from ex love
Sleep won't make you forget him baby but sex does
Swear you ain't looking for no one night stand
But you prepare to risk it all for that one right man
That's me, let's have a toast to your future
I know you want to
Leave your ex in the past, don't let him haunt you
The last argument was world war 3, but follow me
I introduce you to that birge wazi
Talk is cheap, welcome to the R. Les show
You be my brigitte bardo, I'll be your Serge Gainsbourg
