Baby, take it off
Checkered thighs on a pretty pawn
This vicious velvet ain't anough
So baby, make a move
My neon eyes are set on you
The devil's language taste of lust
Tell me what can I say to make your body come this way
We're only two in a crowded room were others fade away
It's only a crime if I get caught (only if I, If I get caught)
It's only a line if it get's bought
I woke up 12:05, I left that room with no goodbye
And now I'm on my way back home
It's not that your lipstick failed
But girl I was just born to bail
I do it better on my own
Tell me what can I say to make your body come this way
We're only two in a crowded room were others fade away
It's only a crime if I get caught (only if I, If I get caught)
It's only a line if it get's bought
It's the same game I play 'till the give becomes the take
It's the same game I play 'yill the bend, The bend becomes the break
Baby, take it off
Checkered thighs on a pretty pawn
This vicious velvet ain't anough
So baby, make a move
My neon eyes are set on you
The devil's language taste of lust
It's only a line if it get's bought
It's the same game I play 'till the give becomes the take (what can I say, what can I say)
It's the same game I play 'till the give becomes the take (Why can't you come this way)
It's the same game I play 'till the give becomes the take (what can I say, what can I say)
It's the same game I play 'yill the bend, The bend becomes the break
