Ain't no telling what I might do
To a girl like you
And tell your girlfriend come too
Back to my room
Sip a lil something don't act so prude
No attitude
Tell me what to do, do, do
When you feeling in the mood, mood, mood
Cause I'm ready make a move, move, move
And I'll hit it like boom, boom, boom
Tell me what to do, do, do
When you feeling in the mood, mood, mood
Cause I'm ready make a move, move, move
And I'll hit it like boom, boom, boom
We been stalling for so long
And now we don't know what to call it but ironic
You're ironic
The way you moving back and forth
No I don't know what I should call it but iconic
You're iconic

And now we don't know what to call it but ironic
You're ironic

No I don't know what I should call it but iconic
You're iconic
Way you moving on the floor, you got me so excited
Can't take no more, no I really can't hide it
Keep between me and you, what we do in private
It's been so long, but it's perfect timing
Tell me what to do, do, do
Cause I'm feeling in the mood, mood, mood
If you're ready we can move, move, move
You can hit it like boom, boom, boom
Tell me what to do, do, do
