Outta Sight
Chromeo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I remember you
from a different occasion
and you remember me.
You said I wasn't your kind.

Oh, but baby baby baby.
I think we'd have a good time.
You've got the savoir faire
of a seasoned vet.
I need a love affair
but I ain't seen nothin yet.

See we could go out
and I could foot the bill.
But when we get home, girl,
you know how you gotta make me feel.

Oh, but baby baby baby.
I think we'd have a good time.

Owww

Ahem, your whole demeanor
is outta sight.
You've got me wondering,
"would you come home with me tonight?"

That type of body
pictured it with no clothes.
But when it went down, down, down, down, down,
I guess I got scared and I froze

Oh, but baby baby baby.
I think we'd have a good time.





Mmm, but baby baby baby.
I think we'd have a good time.
