[English]

I loved you, I can't deny it

I also suffered, I can't lie

Now it's me who doesn't want you here anymore

I learned to live without you

I overcame the emotion I had

Now I'm free and single on the dance floor

Get over it, I'm not coming back

Now you'll see what it's like to suffer

I'll teach you how to screw around

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

If I get invoked

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

Leo Santana, come closer

Make two L's, make two L's, make two L's

I'm gonna send it, I'm gonna send it, I'm gonna send it

You love me, you can't deny it

And you're suffering, you can't lie

Stop being silly, I want you right here

I can't live without you

You don't stay alone either

Scheduled meeting

We bump into each other on the dance floor

You say you'll go, but you only think about coming back

You know we're perfect for each other

When the beat drops, we make it hot

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

If I get invoked

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

I go down twerking, go up with my hand in my hair

I break it, I break it sideways, I put my finger in my mouth

So come breaking it, come

So come breaking it, come

...

[Portuguese]

Eu te amava, não posso negar

Também sofria, não posso mentir

Agora sou eu que não te quero mais aqui

Aprendi a viver sem você

Superei a emoção que eu tinha

Agora tô livre e solteira na pista

Se conforma, eu não vou voltar

Agora tu vai ver o que é sofrer

Vou te ensinar como se bota pra fuder

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Se eu me invocar

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Leo Santana, chega mais pertinho vem

Faz dois L's, faz dois L's, faz dois L's

Vou mandar, vou mandar, vou mandar

Você me ama, não dá pra negar

E tá sofrendo, não dá pra mentir

Para de ser boba que eu te quero bem aqui

Eu não posso viver sem você

Você também não fica sozinha

Encontro marcado

A gente se esbarra na pista

Diz que vai, mas só pensa em voltar

Sabe que a gente tem tudo a ver

Quando bate o grave a gente bota pra ferver

Eu desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Se eu me invocar

Eu desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Desço empinando a bunda, subo com a mão no cabelo

Quebro, de ladinho quebro, na boquinha eu levo o dedo

Então vem quebrando vem

Então vem quebrando vem
