What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?

Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
Now that I'm your baby
The things you promised me
Now I want
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
(You told me)
All the stars I was reaching for
You had in the palm of your hand
And if for just once
I would let the padlock on the door be open
Well, let me just get on over here
This better be the best thing I ever felt
My daisy better be sunny
Better be nothing but all that I want
Now that I'm your baby
The things you promised me
Now I want
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
If I'm really your baby, then share with me
Your secrets in dark
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
I'm the raddest queen of them all
I can have anyone, so what I want
Perfect, get it right, never wrong
So you gonna step it up or you gon' be gone
Not this, nothing is typical
No test, it's all gotta be a for sure
Now that I'm your baby
The things you promised me
Now I want
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
If I'm really your baby, then share with me
Your secrets in dark
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
Well, I train 'em like a marine guard
Regroup and make 'em like a superhero
("Yes, ma'am")
That always better be his response or I don't give a dog a bone, attention!
Show me your 'skilligence'
Let's not play games
We can be closer than sharing last names
The award is a purple heart
It could be yours
If you earn that medal, yep
You could be my boy
Uh, uh, uh uh, uh, uh uh, uh, uh, uh uh uh
Uh, uh, uh uh, uh, uh uh, uh, uh, uh uh uh
(If I'm really your baby, then share with me
Your secrets in dark)
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
What you gon' do about it?
If I'm really your baby, then share with me
Your secrets in dark
Now that you got it
What you gon' do about it?
