Curiosity
Nicole Lyrics

c'mon make it hot
Encouraging the listener to get more into the song and make it more exciting

Ooh ooh (x2)
Expressing excitement and anticipation for what's to come in the song

Let me know let me know
Asking the listener to communicate with her and let her know what they want

What you want what you want
Asking the listener a second time to tell her what they want, emphasizing its importance

The curiosity baby it's killing me
Her curiosity about the listener's intentions is causing her great distress and anxiety

Cause I can tell that you're interested I
She senses that the listener is interested in her

Can sense that you're feeling me
She can tell that the listener is into her, even if they haven't expressed it verbally

Your actions mean more to me than
The listener's actions and behavior towards her are more important and revealing than any words they might say

Words you are too shy to say
The listener is too shy or afraid to express their feelings to her directly

To my friends behind your back baby
She's hearing from her friends, indirectly, that the listener is interested in her

Won't you say it to my face
She wants the listener to tell her directly instead of hiding behind friends or their shyness

If you want to be with me
Asking the listener if they want to pursue a relationship

And you got a thing for me
Acknowledging that she thinks the listener is interested in her

Don't you walk away from me
Urging the listener not to give up on the relationship or run away

Don't you be afraid of me
Assuring the listener that they should not fear speaking their mind or pursuing the relationship

If you want to roll with me
Suggesting that if the listener wants to pursue a relationship, they should go forward with her

c'mon and roll with me
Encouraging the listener to take that step forward and go for it

Intensity, made me sweat a brother majorly, I
She's feeling a lot of intensity and emotion towards the listener, to the point where it is affecting her physically

Was sure it was you, you that was paging me
She believed that the listener was trying to get in touch with her

All the seven days of the week
The listener was trying to contact her every day of the week

But you got a case of butterflies, baby
The listener is feeling nervous or shy around her

I wonder why
She questions why the listener is feeling this way

Heard you say, "I'm so fly" (I'm so fly)
She's heard the listener bragging about themselves, making her wonder why they are shy around her

Let's hook up on later tonight
Suggesting a date or hangout later in the evening

If you really want me baby
Asking the listener if they genuinely want to pursue a relationship

Let me know
Asking the listener to be honest and upfront about their intentions

What you want
Emphasizing the importance of knowing what the listener wants

What you looking for baby, out the door
Asking the listener if they are really ready and willing to pursue a relationship

Gotta go, gotta go
Implying that she's not willing to wait around for the listener

Yo I heard from a bird that you liked it hot
Starting Lil' Mo's rap verse, which implies that she has heard things about the listener

Could we meet at the spot
Asking the listener to meet somewhere

In the parking lot
Specifically suggesting the location

I got my mama's car so don't go slow
Reassuring the listener that they don't have to go slow or be cautious

It's 11:22, and at 12, I ghost, yo
Implying that they only have a short amount of time to meet up before Lil' Mo has to go

Yo, slow it down lover, bout a half an ounce
Starting Dent's rap verse, which suggests a more suggestive tone and drug reference

I got 38 minutes just to make you bounce
Implying that he has a specific amount of time to impress the listener

So lets take a ride
Suggesting that they go on a drive together

You and I
Emphasizing that it's just the two of them

don't you let me pass you by
Urging the listener not to miss out on the opportunity to be with him

Here we go
Excitedly suggesting that the listeners is joining him on this adventure

Let em know
Encouraging the listener to tell others about this experience

You don't even gotta watch
Suggesting that the listener doesn't have to be cautious or watchful (perhaps in the context of doing something that might be considered wrong or against society's norms)

So whatcha say yo, you got the joes for me
Lil' Mo is asking the listener if they want to pursue a relationship

Caught a glimpse of my Benz, now you roll with me
Implying that the listener is impressed by her car and therefore willing to be with her

You want to lay up in my ride, and get fly with me
Suggesting that the listener wants to be physically intimate with her

In the drivers seat
Suggesting that she has control of this relationship

You want to shine with me
Suggesting that the listener wants to be with her and be a part of her life

Damn right, I want to shine, if I can shine with you
Agreeing with her sentiment and saying he wants to be with her

And you say you're getting yours, I gotta get mine too (uh huh)
Implying that he wants to receive something in return, likely referring to being physically intimate

It sounds good coming from a lady looking like you (say what, playa)
Complimenting her appearance and implying that he would be lucky to be with someone like her

It's just the things we do
Implying that the relationship will involve certain behaviors that might not be deemed socially acceptable

want to thing
Repeating her earlier message that if the listener wants to pursue a relationship, they should be honest and direct

Gotta thing
Reiterating this message once more

No no no no no
Emphasizing that the listener should not avoid pursuing the relationship

Baby baby yea
Concluding the song on a final, flirtatious note
