Ignition
R. Kelly Lyrics

You remind me of something
The girl reminds the singer of something but he can't quite remember what it is.

I just can't think of what it is
The singer is perplexed by the thing the girl reminds him of.

Girl, please
The singer is making a request of the girl.

Let me stick my key in your ignition, babe
The singer is asking for permission to have sex with the girl.

So I can get this thing started and get rollin', babe
The singer wants to engage in sexual activity with the girl.

See I'll be doin' about 80 on your freeway
The singer is describing his sexual prowess and the speed at which he will perform.

Girl, I won't stop until I drive you crazy
The singer is suggesting that he will not stop having sex with the girl until she is thoroughly satisfied.

So buckle up, 'cause this could get bumpy, babe
The singer is warning the girl that the sexual experience will be intense and possibly involve some degree of pain.

Now hit the lights and check out all my functions, babe
The singer is asking the girl to turn off the lights so that he can show off his sexual abilities.

Girl, back that thing up so I can watch it, baby
The singer wants the girl to move in a way that is sexually appealing to him.

Honey, we gon' mess around and get a ticket, babe
The singer is implying that the sexual experience will be so intense that they may draw unwanted attention.

'Cause we off up in this Jeep
The singer is describing the metaphorical setting for the sexual experience.

We foggin' up the windows
The singer is suggesting that the intensity of their sexual activity is causing the windows of the Jeep to steam up.

We got the radio up
The singer is suggesting that they are playing music while having sex.

We all up in the back
The singer is suggesting that they are in the back of the Jeep.

We got this shit bouncin'
The singer is suggesting that the sexual activity is causing the Jeep to move.

We goin' up and down
The singer is saying they are moving rhythmically during sex.

And we smokin' and we drinkin'
The singer is saying they are smoking and drinking while having sex.

Just a thuggin' it out

Jump up, down once I hit them switches, babe
The singer is asking the girl to jump up and down when he changes positions during sex.

And I'm about to take it where you wanna go, babe
The singer is suggesting that he will satisfy the girl's sexual desires.

Guarantee you I'm about to get some mileage, babe
The singer is suggesting that he will get a lot of sexual experience during this encounter.

And it won't be no runnin' out of gas, babe
The singer is suggesting that he will not tire or lose interest during sex.

It's like, ooh ooh ooh, pull over babe
The singer is suggesting that the girl may orgasm soon.

And let me put this lovin' off in your trunk, babe
The singer is using a sexual metaphor about putting something in the girl's vagina.

Now hold on tight 'cause I'm about to go faster, babe

Girl, you're dealin' with a pro behind this wheel, babe
The singer is suggesting that he is experienced and skilled in the realm of sex.

So tell me, have you ever driven a stick, babe?
The singer is asking the girl if she has experience with manual transmission cars, but using it as a double entendre for sex.

You'll be screamin' every time we shift them gears, babe
The singer is suggesting that the girl will enjoy the sensation of changing positions during sex.

So brace yourself while I'm hittin' them corners, babe
The singer is suggesting that he will use some rough or extreme movements during sex.

And when it's over, put that Kells on your license plates
The singer is suggesting that the girl will want to commemorate the sexual experience.

Now let me see you bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
The singer is asking the girl to move rhythmically during sex.

Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
The singer is repeating his request for the girl to move rhythmically.

Now let me see you bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
The singer is repeating his request for the girl to move rhythmically.

Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
The singer is repeating his request for the girl to move rhythmically.
