[English]

I jump the line

And you're always waiting for me

It's who I am

And you're in my territory

I go, go, go, we get it on, yeah

I'm chemical, just getting started

Get low, low, low, it's all that you wanted

You got what you wanted, don't you know that

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Come on everybody, you can't get enough of me

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Don't know how it started, you can't get enough of me

You can't get enough of me

You can't get enough of me

Don't waste my time

Follow me now or never (Follow me now or never)

Just close your eyes

To see what's inside together

I go, go, go, we get it on, yeah

I'm chemical, just getting started

Get low, low, low, it's all that you wanted

You got what you wanted, don't you know that

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Come on everybody, you can't get enough of me

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Don't know how it started, you can't get enough of me

You can't get enough of me

You can't get enough of me

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Come on everybody, you can't get enough of me

This is how we party, foolin' with your body

Don't know how it started, you can't get enough of me

Key Grammar Structures

• I jump the line

  ➔ Simple Present

  ➔ The verb "jump" is in the simple present tense, indicating a habitual or general action.

• And you're always waiting for me

  ➔ Present Continuous with adverb of frequency

  ➔ The form "are waiting" is present continuous, showing an ongoing action, while "always" is an adverb of frequency.

• I'm chemical, just getting started

  ➔ Present Continuous (gerund) after "just"

  ➔ The phrase "getting started" uses the gerund form after "just" to indicate an action that has just begun.

• Get low, low, low, it's all that you wanted

  ➔ Imperative sentence + Present Perfect (you wanted)

  ➔ "Get" is an imperative urging the listener to lower themselves; "you wanted" is the past simple used as a perfect‑like reference to a previous desire.

• You got what you wanted, don't you know? that

  ➔ Past Simple + Tag question (don't you know?)

  ➔ "You got" is past simple meaning "you obtained"; the tag "don't you know?" seeks agreement or confirmation.

• Don't waste my time

  ➔ Negative Imperative

  ➔ "Don't" + base verb forms a negative command, telling someone not to waste the speaker's time.

• Follow me now or never

  ➔ Imperative + Coordinating conjunction "or"

  ➔ "Follow" is an imperative verb; "or" links two alternatives – act now, or never do it.

• Just close your eyes

  ➔ Imperative with adverb "just"

  ➔ "Just" softens the command, making it sound like a gentle request: "Close your eyes".

• You can't get enough of me

  ➔ Modal verb "can" in negative form + infinitive

  ➔ "Can't" is the negative of the modal "can"; it is followed by the base verb "get" to express inability.

• Don't know how it started

  ➔ Elliptical clause (subject omitted) + Simple Past

  ➔ The subject "I" is omitted, a common lyrical device; "started" is simple past, referring to a past event.
