I'm trying to calm my nerves (trying to calm my nerves)

Girl, you're turning me on

I need to play

I'm never away

I freak with you all day or night, yeah

When you're working all your curves (mami, I see you work with that!)

I wanna get to you alone

Move it all

Your body and rave

I see what you're all about

She dances and kisses on a table

And in a spin, she’s back in your head

I’d give everything for her sweet strawberry

And if she confesses her sins, I’ll offer her a beer

She dances like a goddess on the moon

A kiss of acid that tortures me

A pill on a perfect waist

She’s a drug that cures my torture

She's a dance floor superstar

All the guys wanna be right where she is

All the ladies wanna dance just like she does

But they can't, so they end up watching too, hey

She's got that fire down her bones

She makes me want to take her home

And you can tell she ain't scared of it

Working girls and boys, she's sharing it

So hard for me to not stare at it

But she's throwing it like she don't care with it

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

Dance, dance, dance with beer

And in a spin, your head turns again

Dance, dance, dance with beer

And in a spin, your head turns again

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

She dances like a goddess on the moon

And in a spin, your head turns again

I'm trying to calm my nerves

Girl, you're turning me on

I need to play

I'm never away

I freak with you all day or night, yeah

When you're working all your curves

I wanna get to you alone

I wanna say

I'm never away

I see what you're all about, hey

She's got that fire down her bones

(El Arma Secreta)

She makes me want to take her home

Esa baila y besa encima 'e una mesa

Baila como diosa sobre la luna

Un beso de ácido que me tortura

Una pastilla en perfecta cintura

Ella es una droga que me cura tortura
