How, how
Interesting...
Say baby, what's your number? Where U live?
Come on over here, let's make a deal
Interesting...
Ouch!
Interesting...
Looky, looky
What have we here? Mmm
Interesting...
Like a bad politician, U walked into the room
Interesting...
U checkin' everybody out, I knew U'd get 2 me soon
(Sooner or later)
Interesting...
Your cologne smelled like a garden in the middle of Rome... ouch!
Interesting...
U offered me your body if I'd take U home
(Home, take me home)
CHORUS:
The way U walk, the way U talk and think and feel
Intrigues me like a thief 2 money, money
If I'm not dreaming, this is interesting
And when we first kissed
(Cool blue flashes)
And honey, your hands, they're like a feather whip
(Please! 4 more lashes)
CHORUS
4 curiosity's sake I asked U 2 dance
Your body moved like the sound of a bass
Interesting...
Acoustically electric, your biceps symmetric
Yeah babe, I like your lines ... ouch!
Interesting - Like a bad politician, U walked into the room
But it's alright cuz (I love U)
CHORUS
Ouch! Ouch!
Baby, oh (Interesting)
Say baby, what's your number? Where U live?
Come on over here, let's make a deal
It's so interesting 2 me, yes it is
Sho'nuff is interesting
I mean, U know I'm not the type
That just speak out on ah.. an issue like this (Interesting)
But when U walked in that door
U know U put this on my mind (Interesting)
And I just couldn't keep it 2 myself {fade out}
Had 2 pinch myself just 2 see if I was dreamin'
