Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Beating with the rhythm of her body slowly move.
I love this feeling,
Mm-mmm,
Yeah, yeah.
Well I can't deny it,
She turns me on, I can't control this burning desire.
I wish we could,
I don't know what it is but there is a trick in her,
Who works so mean,
So well!
And I can't deny it,
She turns me on like a firecracker in the summer sun.
I can feel my mind,
Slowly fading with the smell of her perfume.
And then she's dancing,
Oh damn!
Mm-mmm.
I'm feeling my heart,
Beating with the rhythm of her body slowly move.
I love this feeling,
Mm-mmm,
Yeah, yeah.
Well I can't deny it,
She turns me on, I can't control this burning desire.
I wish we could,
Be having fun under the sun.
I don't know what it is but there is a trick in her,
Who works so mean,
So well!
And I can't deny it,
She turns me on like a firecracker in the summer sun.
I can feel my mind,
Slowly fading with the smell of her perfume.
And then she's dancing,
Oh damn!
Mm-mmm.
