And that ain’t helping at all
You know I got it shawty
But that ain’t stopping you from being naughty
It’s like you want me to climb in and fall
Find myself up outta you
What am I supposed to do
When you’re… like a big ball
What really…
But I gotta think about me too
But you have to spread yourself on the wall
While you bend over
While you bend over
While you bend over
While you bend over
While you bend over

While you bend over
You look like the kinda woman girl
