Baby gonna shut you down

She got a funny little face

But her body don't quit

An-an-and every time she come around

She give a wiggle and a wink

But she don't give a shit about

Anybody else but herself

No she doesn't care for nobody else

It's just me me me me

She's so selfish

Everybody plays her game

She got the style and the class

And she get what she wants

Yeah and everybody knows her name

She got the smile and the ass

And the power to flaunt

'Cause she's really in it just for herself

No, she doesn't care for nobody else

It's just me me me me

She's so selfish

And she say

Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Gimme gimme gimme gimme please

Oh won't you give it to me please please please baby

Day after day after day

After night after night after night

You've been giving her what she wants

Is she giving you what you need

No way

When she takes you by the short hairs

It's the only thing she'll leave you down there

No fuck-a me fuck-a me today

No fuck-a me fuck-a me today

She's the prima donna queen

C-c-coming from the quaalude scene

No fuck-a me fuck-a me today

No fuck-a me fuck-a me today

Hey what do you say

She's been working in the clothing trade

She's a rich little bitch

And she's thinking she's cool

When she tells you that she's got it made

She make you weak in the knees

Like a love sick fool

Yes, you said she made your motor run

Now you know she'll never give you none

It's just me me me me

She's so selfish

I think you know this girl

I know you do

Ouch

I don't want much uh uh

I don't wanna be her boyfriend forever

I just wanna touch
