Mickey
LIZ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You want my love
It's all or nothin'
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?
You turn me on
Give me somethin', cause I'm feenin' for you
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?
(Is that Mickey?)

Modern boys, looking hot
You think you're humble? You're so not
Modern boys with ADD
On a pussy window shopping spree
Respect the gold, this ain't for free
Need the combination, you need the key
You can holler at them if that's your speed
But I'm stayin' sucker free

Mickey, you're hot, you kill it
Can't believe you're the one I'm hittin'
But, I need you to stop and listen
Mickey, put your phone down, look me in the eye
So we can work it out

You want my love
It's all or nothing
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?
You turn me on
Give me somethin', cause I'm feenin' for you
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?

Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey

Man-child, you decide
You can go left or you can go right
You can party with your selfie and your phone all night
Live your life the way you see fit
Exercise 'til it makes you sick
Whatever it is that makes you tick
Here's a trick to make me click
Love's the ticket, that's it

Mickey, you're hot, you kill it
Can't believe you're the one I'm hittin'
But I need you to stop and listen
Mickey, put your phone down, look me in the eye
So we can work it out

You want my love
It's all or nothing
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?
You turn me on
Give me somethin', cause I'm feenin' for you
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?

Let's have a conversation
Let's quit the bullshittin'
I know you're not like the other guys
No more small talkin'
I want that real shit
This ain't the time to compromise

You want my love
It's all or nothin' (It's all or nothin')
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?
You turn me on (You turn me on)
Give me somethin', cause I'm feenin' for you
Feel my heart beat like a clock
Mickey, won't you wind me up?

Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey
Make it bounce, make it bounce
Cause I'm hot, cause I'm hot for you, Mickey





Anata-wa chou baka. Sayonara!
