Lyrics & Translation

[English]

LOCO

Walked in, smooth operator hit your mark

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO

Oh gosh, pure shot of poison to my heart

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO

I’m trapped and there’s no way out Surrounded by my thoughts of ya

I think I’m a little obsessed I feel like I was born to love ya

SOS for this kitty Fresh like rain when I’m thirsty

Gon’ lock you down I got my eye on you, yellow

Feeling the fuego tonight, come and fan the flame

It’s too late, want you so bad, I decided not to fight it

Can’t contain it anyway ‘cause you got me blinded

Such a rush, you’re making me lose my mind

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

What you doing to me

Can’t get off this bad roller coaster ride

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

I’m addicted, outta control

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO

So tell me what’s your intention

I’m tripping when I know you playing with my emotions

I keep on going back and forth, it’s hell then heaven

Pushing me right to the edge of broken

So dangerous, so so so dangerous, uh-oh

Ain’t the type to risk it all But you got me acting irrational

Oasis for this kitty So stay, I need you next to me

Break down my defences, I don’t wanna fight it

Such a rush, you’re making me lose my mind

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

What you doing to me

Can’t get off this bad roller coaster ride

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

I’m addicted, outta control

LOCO

I'm gettin' LOCO-LOCO-CO

I'm gettin' LOCO-LOCO-CO-oh-oh-oh

I'm gettin' LOCO-LOCO-CO

I'm gettin' LOCO-LOCO-CO-oh-oh-oh

Love that rush, you’re making me lose my mind

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

What you doing to me

Can’t get off this bad rollercoaster ride

You got me like CRAY-CRAY-CRAZY in love

I’m addicted, outta control

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO

I'm gettin' LOCO, LOCO
