4 Minutes
Madonna feat. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland Lyrics

I'm outta time and
I am running out of time and

All I got is four minutes (freaky, freaky), four minutes aye
I only have four minutes left to accomplish my goal (which requires a sense of urgency)

Come on, ah
Let's go, come on

Yeah, ha
Yeah, that's right

Break down
Let's break it down (as in dance or sing)

Come on
Let's go

Madonna, break it
Madonna is going to take the lead and make things happen

Come on boy
Addressing the male intended for this song

I've been waiting for somebody
I have been waiting for someone

To pick up my stroll, uh
To join me and walk along with me (in a romantic sense)

Uh, well don't waste time
But don't waste any time

Give me a sign
Let me know you are interested

Tell me how you wanna roll, uh, mm
Explain how you want this to go, in terms of our relationship

I want somebody to speed it up for me
I prefer someone who can push me to accomplish things (in a romantic sense)

Then take it down slow
Then, after having done so, we can settle down and relax

There's enough room for both
We can have both the thrill of excitement and the comfort of stability

Well, I can handle that
I am ready and able to deal with the challenges and rewards of a relationship

You just gotta show me where it's at
You will need to indicate or help me find what I need to do or where I need to go

Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to take action? (in a romantic sense)

(Are you ready to go?) (freaky, freaky, freaky, freaky, freaky come on)
Let's go, are you ready?

If you want it
If you truly desire it

You already got it
You have it already

If you thought it
If you have thought about it and really want it

It better be what you want, uh (freaky, freaky)
It better be what you truly desire (with a sense of urgency)

If you feel it
If you have a genuine feeling of desire

It must be real just
It must be a real, genuine feeling

Say the word and
Let me know and

I'm a give you what you want, uh
I will give you what you truly want

Time is waiting
Time is running out

We only got four minutes
We only have a short amount of time left to achieve our goal

To save the world
This is an important mission with a large-scale impact

No hesitating
We can't hesitate or doubt ourselves

Grab a boy
Grab a man to help you (in this mission)

Grab a girl
Grab a woman to help you (in this mission)

We only got four minutes, huh
We have to work quickly and efficiently

So keep it up, keep it up
Don't slow down, keep going at this pace

Don't be a pri- (hey), Madonna, uh
Don't be a priss, keep up with Madonna's pace

You gotta get 'em a, hop
You need to motivate yourself and get moving

Tick tock tick tock tick tock
Time is running out

That's right, keep it up, keep it up
Yes, that's it, keep going, don't give up

Don't be a pri- (hey) Madonna, uh
Don't be a priss, keep up with Madonna's pace

You gotta get 'em a, hop
You need to motivate yourself and get moving

Tick tock tick tock tick tock (freaky, freaky)
Time is running out (with a sense of urgency)

Sometimes I think what I need
Sometimes I wonder what would be good for me

Is a you intervention, yeah
Is someone else's help or guidance (in a romantic sense)

And you know I can (ah c'mon)
And you know I have the capability to do what needs to be done (with a sense of encouragement)

Tell that you like it
Tell me that you enjoy it or approve of it

And that it's good, by the way
And that it is good, as a side note

That you move, ooh, hey
That you dance or move your body

The road to hell is paved
In general, doing bad things leads to a negative outcome

With good intentions, yeah
However, often people have good intentions even if they make mistakes or bad decisions

But if I die tonight
But if I die tonight (hypothetically speaking)

At least I can say I did
At least I can say I did what I wanted to do

What I wanted to do, uh
What I truly desired to do

Tell me, how 'bout you?
What about you? What do you truly desire and want to do?

I'ma give you what you want, uh
I will give you what you truly desire

Breakdown, yeah
Let's break it down (as in dance or sing)

(Tick tock tick tock tick tock)
Time is running out (with a sense of urgency)

Yeah, uh huh
Yeah, that's right

(Tick tock tick tock tick tock)
Time is running out (with a sense of urgency)

I only got four minutes, to save the world
We have only four minutes left to accomplish our important mission with a large-scale impact.
