The singer then suggests that the other person take off their clothes, and the remainder of the song consists of colorful descriptions of the singer's pleasurable experiences with their partner.

OBAMA
Fly shit
Turn me up some more
Pusha, Skateboard P
Give it to 'em
You're that girl
Who thinks the world
Is something beautiful
And that's all baby
But you're lookin' far abroad
Wishing upon the wrong star
'Cause it don't know
That's not how it goes
So, I can't explain
Why things are made the same and others change
He made it that way
But the perplexities of the world
Leaves more oysters and pearls
And I don't know
It's just the way it goes
But I know you can
Stay with me
Lock the door
Take the key
I am yours
Feel the BAPE
It is yours
It is yours
It is yours (Hey)
Don't take the time
To relax your mind
So unusual, oh baby
Put your priorities on the shelf
But your emotions and your health just don't go
Your body says no, so
I can't conceive
That leaves would grow on trees
And blow with the breeze
And come back next Spring
But the perplexities of life
Brings more days that form new skies
So who's to know
I suppose that you could
So stay with me
Lock the door
Take the key
I am yours
Feel the BAPE
It is yours
It is yours
It is yours (Hey)
Up, up and away
I be the wind that blows yourself
The pixie dust of Tinkerbell
Up, up and away (P, I think we got one baby)
I be the wind beneath your wings (Pusha, let's go)
Vivid colors in your dreams oh
Baby, let's pour it up
Lift them Gallardo doors up
Paris for them Louis as soon as the tour's up
The million dollar frames is his and her the same
I took it on the chin when I heard about the lame
And no, I ain't here to try to rewrite your past
That don't measure up to the nights that we laughed
When considering love, you take the good with the bad
I've been disappointed by every bitch I ever had
Either she was dick crazy or cheddar mad
Shame what they did for them jeans and them leather bags
Reverse it, I want perfect
That was half the reason I bought half them purses
That chapter is over, it was worth it
My new angel surface
She ain't have to rehearse it
My baby's real
That's why I put the chill on her
So good make a wanna kneel on her, not yet
So stay with me
Lock the door
Take the key
I am yours
Feel the BAPE
It is yours
It is yours

You're that girl, uh, who thinks the world
Is somethin' beautiful, and that's all, babe, uh
But you're lookin' far abroad, wishin' upon the wrong star
'Cause you don't know, uh, that's not how it goes, so
I can't explain why things remain the same and others change, He made it that way, uh
But the perplexities of the world leaves more oysters and pearls
And I don't know, it's just the way it goes
But I know you can
[Chorus: Pharrell]
So stay with me, uh, uh
Lock the door, uh, uh

[Verse 2: Pharrell]
Don't take the time, uh, to relax your mind
So unusual, oh, baby, uh
Put your priorities on the shelf, but your emotions and your health
Just don't go, your body said no, so
I can't conceive that leaves would grow on trees and blow with the breeze, and come back next spring, uh
But the perplexities of life brings more days that form new skies
So who's to know, uh, I suppose, uh
But you could
[Chorus: Pharrell]

Up, up, and away, uh (P, I think we got one, baby)
I'll be the wind beneath your wings, the vivid colors of your dreams, oh-whoa (Pusha, let's go)
[Verse 3: Pusha T and Pharrell]
Baby, let's pour it up, lift them Gallardo doors up (Uh)
Paris for them Louis as soon as the tour's up
The million dollar frames is his and her the same (Uh)
I took it on the chin when I heard about the lame
And no, I ain't here to try to rewrite your past (Nah)
That don't measure up to all the nights that we laugh
When considerin' love, you take the good with the bad
I've been disappointed by every bitch I ever had
Either she was dick-crazy or cheddar mad
Shame what they did for them jeans and them leather bags (Hahahahahaha)
Reverse it, I want perfect
That was half the reason I bought half them purses (I brought them purses!)
That chapter is over, it was worth it
My new angel surfaced, she ain't have to rehearse it
My baby's real, that's why I put the chill on her (Yep)
So good, make a nigga wanna kneel on her, not yet!

So stay with me, uh, uh
Lock the door, uh, uh
