Is this what you want?
Hmm
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
Yup long time no see, racing wild at full speed ya
You know my bronco pace ya
This kinda case, this kinda bass, who else does shows like this? Go
Time is now hands up up high
Up here we all settle our past karma alike
Face me boldly face to face ya, don't be ashamed
When your body twists around, receive my kiss
The dawn we awaited, we're runnin' to you
Let's go crazy lost in music babe
Can't wait any longer no way
To me now come on baby
I know you got me hot up on stage
Tellin' me all night long
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
I skip that 'cause I'm low tone
Under my feet all my zone
I hate that don't hit my phone
All same old I go slow mo
Someone said quit while you're ahead
Time passed and we're already over a decade
No half-measures ever, when we're together never afraid
The dawn we awaited, we're runnin' to you
Let's go crazy lost in music babe
Can't wait any longer no way
To me now come on baby
I know you got me hot up on stage
Tellin' me all night long
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
Party let's get started
Go hotter warning
Ignite the fire it's burning
Every bit utterly boring
For sure you call me (Honey)
Come over here today we got (Money)
For me to you deeper (Fallin')
Run breathtakingly, intensely, we're different quality
Are you ready for night oh
Bright lights shining lights on
Freely roam, grab my hand and run
To me now come on baby
I know you got me hot up on stage
Tellin' me all night long
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
They do what I do what I want
I do what I do what I want
