Guess what? (Yeah)

Uh, I ain't giving up fees

CHORUS:

Jukebox with a heartbeat

Trying 2 run a game on me

Jukebox with a heartbeat

If it's popular, it ain't free

Jukebox with a heartbeat

Jukebox with a heartbeat {repeat}

Hey, doesn't make it good 4 me

Hey hey, oh no

If it's good 4 love, sing it along with me

Yes, why U put it on my frequency? (Yeah)

Trying 2 run a game on me

When I'm in the Twin Cities

Jukebox, jukebox...

We're here, we livin' in the Twin Cities

Hey-ay-ay

Trying 2 run a game on me

Why U giving people what they want when U oughta give them what they need? {x4}
