[English]

Ooh

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Kissin' and hope they caught us (ah), whether they like or not (not)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off

I wanna brag about it (yeah), I wanna tie the knot (knot)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (off), yeah, yeah

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (yeah), yeah, yeah

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you

Hold my hand

You can hit it while they watch, boy

So, 9:30? I'll see you there

No, you hang up, you hang up

Something different about you, love it when you hit

And smack too, baby, let me lick on your tattoos

That's true that I like PDA, take you to a seedy place

Suck a little dick in the bathroom

"Who that man with the big strong hands

On her ass in the club with the paps?" Baby, that's you

Front seat, chillin' with the window down

It be ten-toes down on the dash gettin' fast food

Hope you can handle the heat, put your names on the streets

Get used to my fans lookin' at you

Fuck what they heard, I don't fuck with them birds

I'm a mean kitty, don't get stabbed with the rat tooth

Boys be mad that I don't fuck incels, girls hate too, gun to their pigtail

I love you, I wanna big chill, boy, don't trip, I'll split a big bill

Take you 'round the world, they don't have to understand

Rub it in their face, put a rock on her hand

Baby, can you call me back? I miss you

It's so lonely in my mansion

Kissin' and hope they caught us (ah), whether they like or not (not)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off

I wanna brag about it (yeah), I wanna tie the knot (knot)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (off), yeah, yeah

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (yeah), yeah, yeah

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you

Hold my hand

You can hit it while they watch, boy

Ah, sorry

I was takin' a sip of my root beer

'Cause love is pain, but I need this shit (yeah)

We fuck too good when the beat kicks in

Like Fortnite, I'ma need your skin (yeah)

Don't give a fuck where the penis been (uh)

Boy, you're the one, you're the only man

Me and you on my OnlyFans

Holy cow, you're the Holy Trin'

Hold me down when a hole need dick

Be my security, it's your therapy

With you I ain't holdin' shit back

When I need my space, you give that

When he broke my heart, you fixed that

With a long walk on the beach

Love it when they honk-honk on the street (beep)

When they see us zoom by in the Jeep (yeah)

We a whole damn joint, we a energy

Baby, we can just ride on our enemies

They all wanna know how you get to me

Let 'em feel how they feel and be Philistines

'Cause this type of love's the epitome, said

Baby, you are literally cappin' to me right now

Like, why are you cappin'?

You just cap so hard, it's-

I don't know what to do

Kissin' and hope they caught us (ah), whether they like or not (not)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off

I wanna brag about it, I wanna tie the knot (knot)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (off), yeah, yeah (off)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off)

I wanna show you (yeah), yeah, yeah (off)

I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you off (off), I wanna show you

Hold my hand

You can hit it while they watch, boy

Key Grammar Structures

• Kissin' and hope they caught us, whether they like or not

  ➔ Subjunctive mood (implied)

  ➔ The phrase "whether they like or not" implies a subjunctive mood, expressing a hypothetical or desired situation regardless of others' approval. Although the subjunctive isn't explicitly used grammatically, the meaning conveys the same sense. The sentence structure is simplified, common in song lyrics. The full form would be 'whether they *would* like it or not'

• I wanna show you off, I wanna brag about it

  ➔ "Wanna" contraction (want to) + preposition usage (about)

  ➔ "Wanna" is a colloquial contraction of "want to," common in informal speech and song lyrics. The preposition "about" is correctly used after the verb "brag" to indicate the subject of the bragging. It is a common usage of preposition.

• Let me lick on your tattoos

  ➔ Imperative Mood + Preposition 'on'

  ➔ The sentence starts with "Let me", which creates an imperative construction asking or instructing someone to do something. The use of the preposition "on" describes where the action of "licking" takes place, which are “tattoos”.

• Boys be mad that I don't fuck incels

  ➔ Informal "be" as habitual aspect + negative contraction

  ➔ The use of "be" (instead of "are") with "boys" indicates a habitual action or state in some dialects of English. It's not standard grammar but emphasizes a recurring situation. "Don't" is a contraction of "do not," expressing negation.

• Take you 'round the world, they don't have to understand

  ➔ Ellipsis ('round) + 'have to' for obligation + negative 'don't'

  ➔ ''Round'' is an elliptical form of ''around'', commonly used in informal speech. 'Have to' expresses obligation or necessity. 'Don't have to' expresses lack of obligation. The full version is 'They do not have to understand'

• Love is pain, but I need this shit

  ➔ Pronoun "this" as a deictic reference + informal language ('shit')

  ➔ The pronoun "this" is used deictically, referring to something in the immediate context or experience—specifically, the complex or painful aspects of love described earlier. "Shit" is an informal and potentially vulgar word used for emphasis, indicating the intensity of the speaker's need.

• Like Fortnite, I'ma need your skin

  ➔ Contraction "I'ma" (I'm going to) + simile (like)

  ➔ "I'ma" is a colloquial contraction of "I'm going to," indicating future intention. The word "like" introduces a simile, comparing needing someone's skin (in a metaphorical, likely sexual, sense) to needing a skin in the game Fortnite.
