[English]

It's 5 o'clock in the morning

Conversation got boring

You said you'd go into bed soon

So I snuck off to your bedroom

And I thought I'd just wait there (uh)

Until I heard you come up the stairs (uh)

And I pretended I was sleeping (uh)

And I was hoping you would... (ayy)

It's 5 o'clock in the morning, and I want ya

And you want me, ha, don't ya?

I can see it 'cause you've been waiting on me

Since I said that I was hitting in the club

The Sun be coming up on me

And I know you be getting so horny

'Cause you be sending me textses

Like, "Boy, just get your ass up in that car and come get all of this love"

(It's 5 o'clock in the morning) you ain't got to remind me

She already said if I don't come on time, she

Might go crazy

And she'll be waiting on me naked with one of my chains on

She might come and find me (aw, aw, aw)

And then ask me kindly (aw, aw, aw)

Do I want her to go crazy?

We do this every night and then we always wake up singing the same song

It's 5 o'clock in the morning (yeah)

Conversation got boring (talk to me, girl)

You said you'd go into bed soon (let's go)

So I snuck off to your bedroom (come on)

And I thought I'd just wait there (wait on me)

Until I heard you come up the stairs (I won't let you stay lonely)

And I pretended I was sleeping (all right)

And I was hoping you would creep in (goodnight)

It's 5 o'clock in the morning

The conversation got boring

You said you'd go into bed soon

So I snuck off to your bedroom

And I thought I'd just wait there

Until I heard you come up the stairs

And I pretended I was sleeping (oh)

And I was hoping you would creep in

It's 5 o'clock in the morning, and you calling

And these females got me stalling

I can hear your voice in my head like

"What is he doing?" (oh) "What is he doing?"

'Cause I keep checking my cell phone and these missed calls

And you texting me like, "I'ma kill ya

If you don't get your ass up out of that club

And do you know what time it is?"

(It's 5 o'clock in the morning) ooh (ooh)

Well, my bad, girl

This Nuvo got me tripping and I know that you mad, girl

But you ain't got to worry about nothing (worry 'bout nothing)

Girl, I got you (I got you), girl, I got you

She might come and find me (oh, no, no)

And then ask me kindly (no, no, no)

Do I want her to go crazy? (crazy)

We do this every night and then we always wake up singing the same song

It's 5 o'clock in the morning (yeah)

Conversation got boring (talk to me, girl)

You said you'd go into bed soon (let's go)

So I snuck off to your bedroom (come on)

And I thought I'd just wait there (ooh, wait on me)

Until I heard you come up the stairs (I won't let you stay lonely)

And I pretended I was sleeping (all right)

And I was hoping you would creep in (baby girl, goodnight)

It's 5 o'clock in the morning

The conversation got boring

You said you'd go into bed soon

So I snuck off to your bedroom

And I thought I'd just wait there

Until I heard you come up the stairs

And I pretended I was sleeping

And I was hoping you would creep in

It's 5 o'clock in the morning

Oh-oh, and you ain't got nothing on

But the t-shirt that I left over your house the last time I came and put it on ya

Too many thirsty girls up in this club for me to leave here with one of them, that's why I call her

And you'll be right at home waiting for me

iPhone plugged in the wall, just waiting for me

Club closed at 6, left around 4:30

Yeah, so by the time I'm at your crib

(It's 5 o'clock in the morning) and you yawning

But I've been drinking all night and I feel like performing

With you in the bedroom, floor to the dresser

Don't want nothing less 'cause I'm sure you're the best, you're the one

So I let you, that's how you show me love

And when we finished, you like "Damn, babe, you woke me up"

I love you way you put it down, like it's for both of us

The sun ain't the only thing that's coming up

It's 5 o'clock in the morning

Conversation got boring

You said you'd go into bed soon

So I snuck off to your bedroom

And I thought I'd just wait there

Until I heard you come up the stairs

And I pretended I was sleeping

And I was hoping you would creep in

It's 5 o'clock in the morning
