Hit the gas the way you only could if I was 18
Fiddle it and diddle under the hood like I was 18
Take it off and let's do this
Take it off and let's do this
What you drivin' with show me what you got got got
Ain't got time for first base
Gotta pick up the pace
Cuz I'm gonna get up in ya face
And 18 all up in ya space
18 Hot Rod 18 Hot Rod
In the park, in the car, in the dark
I'll take you on a park and ride
Wanna get with this this?
Ain't nobody else's business
Treat me like I'm 18
I don't need a witness
Don't take me out to the movies tonight I don't need no ice cream
or dinner to delight, Don't pull the door or be on your best behavior
Take it off and let's do this
Take it off and let's do this
Don't need to ask permission from me you have got a polite sense
you need to proceed. In the headlights take ya top down I wanna see you
You're gonna drive this thing into the ground.
(WOW)
Take it off and let's do this
Take it off and let's do this x2
The Hi Fashion song "Eighteen" is a high-energy, sexually-charged ode to youthful abandon. The lyrics describe a desire to be treated like an 18-year-old, with all the wild and reckless behavior that entails. The singer wants to be driven around in a fast car, with the driver showing off their skills under the hood. They want to be taken on a park and ride and engage in physical activities without the need for romantic gestures like dinner or movie dates. The singer does not want to be treated with polite caution but rather wild abandon.
The lyrics reflect a desire for freedom from the limitations of adulthood and responsibility. The singer wants to experience a moment of pleasure without any consequences or obligations. The repeated refrain of "take it off and let's do this" underscores the urgency of the singer's desire.
The song "Eighteen" is a fast-paced dance track with a pulsing beat and electronic instrumentation. It is part of Hi Fashion's 2015 album "Special Delivery," which explores themes of desire, sexuality, and self-expression.
