[English]

Party on a Wednesday night

Little dress a little tight

Feelin' everybody's eyes on my body

I'm not one to tell a lie

Something 'bout it gets me high

Maybe that isn't right but I want it

Sweatin' out on the floor

Staying out 'til the mornin'

It makes me want more

Can't fight it, can't fight it

I just can't get enough

Wish that I could ignore it

This almost feels like love

I'm the king of being bad

I should get myself some habits

That are better for me

But being good is boring

Do it while I can

Sorry, mom, it makes you mad

I'm not better for it

But being good is boring

Another day waking up

Promise I'm gonna stop

For a couple hours I can act like an angel

But it only takes a call

Suddenly I'm falling

Fucking up and dancing on tables

Sweatin' out on the floor

Staying out 'til the mornin'

It makes me want more

Can't fight it, can't fight it

I just can't get enough

Wish that I could ignore it

This almost feels like love

(There she is)
