[English]

Hey, you wanna come in?

Move over, and here I come

Last time was just a warm-up umm

This time, it’s for real party

Stay out of this if you can’t handle it yeah

Gosh, you must feel tight

Let it all go and enjoy yourself to the full, everyone

Turn off the light and light up your eyes all night

Stop hiding your excitement and let it all out

I’ll walk out that door to see everything I wanted

I can hear the music playing on the other side of the door

I shout my lungs out, I don’t

have time to hesitate

Hey

Come inside now

Hey

Authorized personnel only here back door

If you want to be authorized

Ey I guess this is it

It’s time to think ready to go

This body suffered enough from having a bad owner

I’ll make it up to you, so follow follow me back door

It’s okay since it’s not SECOM

The sound that I’m hearing is a fanfare

Let’s play all night long, what I need is more caffeine

Come if you want, the passcode is Open Sesame

Everything looks different, and at this moment, everything turns out to be perfect

I’m watching my fantasy unfold before my eyes

I shout my lungs out, I don’t

have time to hesitate

Hey

Come inside now

Hey

Authorized personnel only here back door

If you want to be authorized

knock knock

Lights out

Yeah it is getting more glamorous as time passes

Yeah we gon’ do it right now, do it right now baby

Come to your senses from now on

Look at this world and keep it in your eyes

Your heart pounds rum pum pum pum

Make ‘em say wow, wow, wow, yeah

Bring ‘em all, all, all, ey

Sing along, along, along, hey

3 2 1

Authorized personnel only here back door

If you want to be authorized

knock knock

The bell rings and we go crazy

Today, we do our thang again

The bell rings and we go crazy

Tonight, I bark again ey

The bell rings and we go crazy

Today, we do our thang again

The bell rings and we go crazy

Hey, you wanna come in?
