Na na na na na na now

I just like to make you mine oh mine

Na na na na na na now

You the addict still I'm at it
If only you discover the school time fanatic
Give it up give it give it give it up
If only we're together we can waste their time

Everybody wants you

Come on baby I need your love




And I touch and I love you
Come on baby let me feel your loving
