Yeah, 1 2 3 4!
U're such a big tease
U get me all excited, all excited
And then U go home
I like 2 say "Please"
See my candle, wanna light it, wanna light it?
U like 2 say "No"
U're just a bombshell
If I ever get it, ever get it
There's no telling, no telling how long I'll last
Before I tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang all over U
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang, bang all over U
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang, bang, bang, tick, bang, bang!
Oh!
Oh yeah!
I can't concentrate
When I see your bang bang tick bang bang
I just wanna bang
I wanna masturbate
Baby girl, it ain't the same, it ain't the same
As the real thing
CHORUS:
U're such a bombshell
If I ever get it, ever get it
There's no telling, no telling how long I'll last
Before I tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang all over U
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang, bang all over U
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, bang, bang, bang, tick, bang, bang!
Ooh yeah!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Ow!
U're like a wet dream
No matter how I try 2 fight it, try 2 fight it
I just tick, bang
I scream
See my candle, wanna light it, wanna light it?
I just wanna bang
CHORUS
Come on!
Oh yeah!
Faster!
Oh yeah!
(Come on)
(Come on) Oh!
(Come on) Oh!
Oh yeah!
