Lyrics & Translation

[English]

It's been a long time (long time), we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to, step to, step to, step to

Step to, step to, freaky-freaky

It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to, step to, step to, step to

Step to, step-step to, freaky-freaky

Baby girl, oh

What would you do to get to me?

What would you say to have your way?

Would you give up or try again

If I hesitated to let you in?

Now would you be yourself or play your role?

Tell all the boys or keep it low

If I say no, would you turn away?

Or play me off, or would you stay? Oh

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust it off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

I'm into you, you into me

But I can't let it go so easily

Not 'til I see, what this could be

Could be eternity, or just a week

But, yo, our chemistry is off the chain

It's perfect now, but will it change?

This ain't a yes, this ain't a no

Just do your thing, we'll see how it goes

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed) (yeah)

Then dust yourself off and try again (again)

You can dust it off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed) (ooh)

You can dust it off and try again (try again)

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

So, you don't wanna throw it all away

I might be shy on the first date, what about the next date

Huh, huh, huh, huh

I said you don't wanna throw it all away

I might be bugging on the first date, what about the next date?

Huh, huh, huh, huh

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust it off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed) (yeah)

Then dust yourself off and try again (you can)

You can dust it off and try again, try again (again)

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed) (oh-ooh)

You can dust it off and try again (again)

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust it off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed) (baby)

You can dust it off and try again (yeah)

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

It's been a long time (time), we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to, step to

Step to, step to, freaky-freaky

It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to, step to

Step to, step to, freaky-freaky

And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust it off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again

Dust yourself off and try again, try again (again, again)

It's been a long time (time), we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to, step to (what?)

Step to, step to, freaky-freaky

It's been a long time (time), we shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to, step to

Step to, step to, freaky-freaky (we out)

One more again

The new millennium, baby

And we out, you guess who it is
