Music?We're about to have a pool party!
Get a girl, I'll get a boy.
One plus one.
Take 'em right down to the shore.
One plus one.
Give your all and give some more.
One plus one.
Let the music free your soul.
One plus one.
Sway with me to the light.
Hold me for just one night.
Hold me for just one night.
(Whoah)
We live for the beat.
Baby, you're all I need.
Baby, you're all I need.
