9-1-1
Do you taste it
Do you feel what I feel
I feel it coming and it's oh so near
You got me breathing like an animal
I won't be satisfied until you're here (9-1-1)
Every little time you touch my thighs I wanna cry
Every little thing you do I swear I'm on a ride
You got me hypnotized
You got me hypnotized (9-1-1)
9-1-1
I'll call you when I'm feeling lonely
9-1-1
Baby boy come get right on me
9-1-1
Put this fire out, I'm burning
Up, up, up
9-1-1
Do you know just what you do to me?
What I need ya know it's criminal
Close my eyes and you're undressing me
One step further boy and we will be
9-1-1
Every little time you touch my thighs I wanna cry
Every little touch you take me deeper in my mind
Every little thing you do I swear I'm on a ride
You got me hypnotized
You got me hypnotized (9-1-1)
9-1-1
I'll call you when I'm feeling lonely
9-1-1
Baby boy come get right on me
9-1-1
Put this fire out, I'm burning
Up, up, up
9-1-1
Sexing in the attic
When ya felt so automatic
Felt explosive when ya had it
When ya ___ all over me
Boy I made it rain
Just when I squeezed and made it tight
Just so relax, just so don't you fight
Just calm down, feel the freakin heat
9-1-1
9-1-1
Every little time you touch my thighs I wanna cry
Every little touch you take me deeper in my mind
Every little thing you do I swear I'm on a ride
You got me hypnotized
You got me hypnotized (9-1-1)
9-1-1
I'll call you when I'm feeling lonely
9-1-1
Baby boy come get right on me
9-1-1
Put this fire out, I'm burning
Up, up, up

In "911," Britney Spears sings about a passionate love affair that has left her so consumed with desire that she feels like she needs to call for help. The song begins with the urgent repetition of "9-1-1," which suggests a sense of emergency. Britney sings about her intense emotions, saying that she can taste and feel them, and that the intensity of the feeling is building as the person she desires gets closer. She describes the physical sensation that this person gives her, making her breathe like an animal, and how she won't be satisfied until they are together.
As the song progresses, Britney becomes more explicit about the sexual nature of her desires, singing about how every touch makes her cry, takes her deeper into her mind, and hypnotizes her. She asserts that she will call this person when she is feeling lonely and needs them to be there for her. The lyrics become more graphic towards the end, suggesting a sexual encounter that is passionate and explosive, before returning to the urgent refrain of "9-1-1."
The song is a departure from Britney's earlier music, which tended to be more pop and dance-oriented. "911" has a darker, more sensual beat and a more mature tone, suggesting that Britney is exploring her sexuality in new ways. It was released in October 2020, and it is the fourth single from her album "Glory".

Liam

This definitely should've been on Blackout 1000 percent. The unreleased tracks from this album are pop perfection
LuBosh Official
Even tho it's a demo production wise it's so fresh and obviously it would have been solid single even in mid 10's. Shocking how "Blackout" revolutionary album is
LuBosh Official
Alesso Spears Praising this demo?....Nothing more, nonthing less
Lucas Nino
Alesso Spears saying the song would've done well as a single if it was released on the album.
