[English]

Tha Biz, Tha Bizness

Take it off, I wanna love you

And e'rybody wanna touch you

You movin' right, wanna see what's up under

Then back it up, beep beep like a trucker

Nice thighs, nice waist

And you know I can't forget about your face

But don't none of that matter

I'm about to make your pockets fatter

Girl, I just wanna see you strip, right now

'Cause it's late, late, babe

Girl, I just wanna see you strip

Girl, take your time with it

Girl I just wanna see you strip

Goddamn, you sexy (For me)

Goddamn, you sexy (Baby)

Goddamn, you sexy (Oh-oh)

Girl, I just wanna see you

Got my shades on, with my Js on

In the club with a pocket full of ones

This girl, booty outta control

Then she go up and down the pole

Which one I'ma take home? (Take home)

Get my freak on (Freak on)

If you ain't freakin', we ain't speakin'

You think I'm playin'? No, I'm not

Let me see you back it up and drop

Yeah, I wanna see your legs in the air

Baby, don't worry about your hair

All those tracks

I don't give a damn about that

In the club, they play my song

Turn it up, play it all night long

If you think you can, and you know you can

I'ma give you all my money, money, money

Girl, I just wanna see you strip, right now

'Cause it's late, babe

Girl, I just wanna see you strip

Girl, take your time with it

Girl, I just wanna see you strip

Goddamn, you sexy (For me)

Goddamn, you sexy (Baby)

Goddamn, you sexy (Oh-oh)

Girl, I just wanna see you

Pants, shirt, you can take it off

Panties, bra, you can take it off

Red bottom heels, you can take 'em

Wait, wait, leave 'em on, 'cause I like my woman tall

Got a hot momma, you're hotter than a sauna (Sauna)

I wanna peel 'em clothes off your body like a banana (Like a banana)

The only reason I dress you in that designer (Why you do that?)

Is to get you out that Dolce and Gabbana

I throw this money up, she watch it all fall

Toot that thang up, pop it for a boss

Anything you wanting baby, you can have it all

Starting with my last name, now they call you Mrs. Mccall

Girl, I just wanna see you strip, right now

'Cause it's late, babe

Girl, I just wanna see you strip

Girl, take your time with it

Girl I just wanna see you strip

Goddamn, you sexy (For me)

Goddamn, you sexy (Baby)

Goddamn, you sexy (Oh-oh)

Girl, I just wanna see you, see you, see you

Key Grammar Structures

• Take it off, I wanna love you

  ➔ Imperative mood, Object Pronoun + Modal Verb + Infinitive

  ➔ The phrase "Take it off" is a direct command using the imperative mood. "I wanna" is a colloquial contraction of "I want to," using the modal verb "want" to express desire. The object pronoun 'it' refers to clothing.

• But don't none of that matter

  ➔ Double Negative, Pronoun + Auxiliary Verb + Negative Determiner + Pronoun + Verb

  ➔ This sentence uses a double negative ("don't none"), which, while non-standard, is common in some dialects. It effectively means "any of that doesn't matter". The use of 'none' with 'don't' creates the double negative.

• I'ma give you all my money, money, money

  ➔ Contraction + Future with 'be going to' (implied) + Pronoun + Determiner + Noun (repeated for emphasis)

  ➔ "I'ma" is a very colloquial contraction of "I am going to". The repetition of "money" emphasizes the speaker's willingness to spend lavishly.

• Which one I'ma take home?

  ➔ Interrogative Pronoun + Auxiliary Verb + Contraction + Verb + Adverb

  ➔ This is an interrogative sentence asking a question. "Which one" is the interrogative pronoun. "I'ma" is a colloquial contraction of "I am going to". The sentence structure is inverted for a question.

• Got my shades on, with my Js on

  ➔ Past Participle used as Adjective + Noun + Preposition + Possessive Pronoun + Noun

  ➔ "Shades" and "Js" (referring to Jordan shoes) are nouns. "On" functions as a preposition indicating wearing. "Got my...on" is a common colloquial expression.
