Janet Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All my girls at the party
Look at his body
Shakin' that thing
Like I never did see
Got a nice package alright
Guess I'm gonna have to ride it tonight
Guess I'm gonna have to ride it tonight
All for you
If you really want it
All for you if you say you need it
All for you if you gotta have it
All for you make a move
All for you
I see you staring out the corner of my eye
You seem uneasy want to approach
Throw me a line
But then something inside you grabs you says who am I
I know exactly cuz it happens with all the guys
So you do what you gonna do
Come on and talk to me
Promise you won't even have an attitude
I'll let you sit right next to me
Don't join the list of other fools
That ain't the way to be
Yes, it's cool
Yes, I'm in the mood
Intimidations got that mind
Can't be afraid or keep me waiting too long
Before you know it
I'll be outta here I'll be gone
Don't try to be all clever, cute, or even shy
Don't have to work that hard
Just be useful and let that be your guide
So you do what you gonna do
Come on and talk to me
Promise you won't even have an attitude
I'll let you sit right next to me
Don't join the list with all the other fools
That ain't the way to be
Yes, it's cool
Yes, I'm in the mood
Intimidations got that mind
All for you
Tell me you're the only one




Soon we'll be having fun
Come over here and get some
