Okay, the shoe is going on the other foot tonight (la, la, la)
I'm 'bout to turn you into my very own flight tonight (la, la, la)
Okay, you think you got me where you want me
I'mma show you tonight (la, la, la)
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight you gonn' be my, be my man
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Just lay right there and don't you move
I'm in control tonight (la, la, la)
Lock you up in my room
Be my prisoner of love tonight (la, la, la)
Shut up, sit down, who's the boss now
I'm 'bout to show you now (la, la, la)
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight you gon be my, be my man
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Tonight I'm feeling sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Tonight I'm feeling sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom boom, baby
Got you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little
Boom boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a, be a, be a
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tonight I'm gonna be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'mma be a little selfish
Be a little selfish
