[English]

We hug and, yes, we make love

And always just say, "Goodnight" (la-la-la, la-la-la)

And we cuddle, sure, I do love it

But I need your lips on mine

(Can you kiss me more?)

We're so young, boy, we ain't got nothing to lose, uh-oh

(It's just principle)

Baby, hold me 'cause I like the way you groove, uh-oh

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Oh, I love the taste, la-la-la, la-la

All on my tongue, I want it (la-la-la, la-la)

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Oh, I love the taste, la-la-la, la-la

All on my tongue, I want it (la-la-la, la-la)

I, I feel like cuffing something

But we can be corny, okay

Sugar, I ain't no dummy-dummy

I like to say, "What if?"

But if we could kiss and just cut the rubbish

Then I might be on to something

I ain't giving you one in public

I'm giving you hundreds, come get it

Something we just gotta get into

Sign first, middle, last, on the wisdom tooth

And they wishing that the cookie was a kissing booth

Taste breakfast, lunch, and gin, and juice

And that dinner just like dessert too

And when we French, refresh, gimme two

When I bite that lip, come get me too

He want lipstick, lip-gloss, hickeys too, huh

(Can you kiss me more?)

We're so young, boy, we ain't got nothing to lose, uh-oh

(It's just principle)

Baby, hold me 'cause I like the way you groove, uh-oh

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Oh, I love the taste, la-la-la, la-la

All on my tongue, I want it (la-la-la, la-la)

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Oh, I love the taste, la-la-la, la-la

All on my tongue, I want it (la-la-la, la-la)

Say, give me a buck, need that gushy stuff

Push your limit, no, you ain't good enough

All your fellas say that you lost without me

All my shawties feel like I dodged the county

Cuffin' with you feel like jail, buddy

I can't even exhale, buddy

Cookie like holy grail, you know that

You gon' make me need bail, you know that

Caught dipping with your friend

You ain't even half, man, lying on your-, you know that

Got me a bag full of brick, you know that

Control, don't slow the pace if I throw back

All this cash for real (all this cash)

Drama make you feel (make you feel)

Fantasy and whip appeal is all I can give you

(Can you kiss me more?)

We're so young, boy, we ain't got nothing to lose, uh-oh

(It's just principle)

Baby, hold me 'cause I like the way you groove, uh-oh

Oh, darling

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Ooh, I love the taste, oh-la-la-la-la-la

All on my tongue, I want it

Boy, you write your name, I can do the same

Ooh, I love the taste, oh-la-la-la-la-la

All on my tongue, I want it

Key Grammar Structures

• We hug and, yes, we make love

  ➔ Coordinating Conjunctions & Present Simple

  ➔ The sentence uses "and" to connect two actions. The verb "make" is in the present simple to describe habitual actions. The 'yes' adds emphasis.

• Baby, hold me 'cause I like the way you groove, uh-oh

  ➔ Subordinating Conjunction ('because') & Gerund Phrase

  ➔ "because" introduces a reason for liking how someone moves. "groove" functions as a verb within the phrase 'the way you groove', describing the manner of movement.

• I feel like cuffing something

  ➔ Idiomatic Expression & Gerund

  ➔ "cuffing something" is slang meaning wanting to settle down with someone. "something" is vague, and "cuffing" acts as a gerund (verb acting as a noun).

• Sugar, I ain't no dummy-dummy

  ➔ Informal Negation & Reduplication

  ➔ "ain't" is a non-standard contraction of "am not/is not/are not". Repeating "dummy" emphasizes the speaker's intelligence.

• I like to say, "What if?"

  ➔ Infinitive of Purpose & Indirect Question

  ➔ "to say" indicates the purpose of liking. "What if?" is an indirect question embedded within the statement.

• I ain't giving you one in public

  ➔ Informal Negation & Quantifier

  ➔ Again, "ain't" is used for informal negation. "one" refers to a kiss and acts as a quantifier.

• Sign first, middle, last, on the wisdom tooth

  ➔ Imperative Mood & Prepositional Phrase

  ➔ The sentence uses the imperative mood to give a command. "on the wisdom tooth" is a prepositional phrase indicating location.

• And they wishing that the cookie was a kissing booth

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood & Metaphor

  ➔ The "was" indicates a wishful, unreal situation (subjunctive mood). "the cookie" is a metaphor for a person's body.
