Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling
Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling
Something' taking over

Said its spinning something taking over babe

Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling (so fine why'all)
Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling (play that thing)
Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling (feeling say)

Round and round and round I go

Out of my mind

Something' taking over my head is spinning can't stop this feeling
Roll the bass why'all
Um-Um Um-Um taking over

Um-Um Um-Um Oh yes I do
Um-Um Um-Um taking over (Fade)
