Lyrics:

[English]

My body comes alive

When you get real close

You gon' be surprised

If I get exposed

'Cause you're like a hit of ecstasy

I can feel you all inside

And, baby, I'm on one tonight

Ready, set, let's go

I'm a rum and lemon dealer

'Cause I know what gets you out them clothes

Liquid courage makes me realer

Now you know, oh

So you ain't gotta ask me, daddy, if I'm feeling nasty

I been tryna hide that I want you so badly

I don't know how much more of this I can take

And you're the one to blame

My body comes alive

When you get real close

You gon' be surprised

If I get exposed

'Cause you're like a hit of ecstasy

I can feel you all inside

And, baby, I'm on one tonight (tonight)

Ready, set, let's go

You got on that Dolce & Gabanna

Baby, you know what you doin'

I'm tryna see what's up with that banana

That's why my mind keep goin', goin'

So you ain't gotta ask me, daddy, if I'm feeling nasty

I been tryna hide that I want you so badly

I don't know how much more of this (I can take)

And you're the one to blame

My body comes alive (oh)

When you get real close

You gon' be surprised (if I)

If I get exposed

'Cause you're like a hit of ecstasy

I can feel you all inside

And, baby, I'm on one tonight (tonight)

Ready, set, let's go

Dinner on my body (yup)

Hotter than hibachi (okay)

Baby, come and try me

Ready, set, go

I got punani, na-nani, na-nani

I got punani, na-nani, na-nani

Dinner on my body (yup)

Hotter than hibachi (okay)

Baby, come and try me

Ready, set, go

I got punani, na-nani, na-nani

I got punani, na-nani, na-nani

My body comes alive (oh)

When you get real close

You gon' be surprised (if I)

If I get exposed

'Cause you're like a hit of ecstasy

I can feel you all inside

And, baby, I'm on one tonight (tonight)

Ready, set, let's go
