Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
Ten PM 'til four and I came to hit the floor
Thought you knew before, but if you don't, then now you know
Yo, tonight I'm 'bout to mash, make them other chicks so mad
I'm 'bout to shake my ass, snatch that boy (So fast)

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all about me and you, doing how we do
Tear the floor up-up-up, tell 'em to make room
If they wanna know, tell 'em mind their own
But if they wanna look, we can give 'em a encore

[Chorus]
Make it a freakshow, freakshow
We can give 'em a peep-peepshow, peep-peepshow
Don't stop it, let it flow, let your inhibitions go
It's a crazy night, let's make a-make a freakshow

[Post-Chorus]
Make it a freak-freakshow, a freakshow, a freakshow
Make it a freak-freakshow, a freakshow, a freakshow

[Verse 2]
Make 'em clap when we perform, wanna be crazy? We can show 'em
Dancing table top, freaky freaky, so outside the norm
On some super star ish, pushing hot Bugatti whips
Rocking new designer fits, we can do it if you're with it

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all about me and you, doing how we do
Tear the floor up, up, tell 'em to make room
If they wanna know, tell 'em mind their own
But if they wanna look, we can give 'em a encore

[Chorus]
Make it a freakshow, freakshow
We can give 'em a peep-peepshow, peep-peepshow
Don't stop it, let it flow, let your inhibitions go
It's a crazy night, let's make a-make a freakshow

[Post-Chorus]
Make it a freak-freakshow, a freakshow, a freakshow
Make it a freak-freakshow, a freakshow, a freakshow

[Bridge]
Me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go
Said me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go
Me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go
Said me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go (Freakshow...)
Me and-me and my gir-girl-girl
Me and-me and my girl-girl-girl


[Chorus]
Make it a freakshow, freakshow
We can give 'em a peep-peepshow, peep-peepshow
Don't stop it, let it flow, let your inhibitions go
It's a crazy night, let's make a-make a freakshow

[Outro]
Make it a, make it a
Me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go
Said me and my girls 'bout to get it on
Grab us a couple boys to go

[Verse 1]

All them haters hopin' trash
Paparazzi tryna stop me
Wanna get a photograph
Center finger what I give
Them sexy boys, I gotta get them
All I wanna do is squeak
I start the headlines from the top

[Pre-Chorus]
That's all about me and you

[Verse 2]
Make 'em clap when we perform
Wanna be crazy, we can show them
And then table tap, freak
Since it's all started and all

Pushing hot Ferrari whips
Open new designer fits
We can do it if it's fun

[Pre-Chorus]
That's all about me and you
Doin' what we do

Bringin' the heat through
You got it all on me

All the nasty girls, come on get down
Whoever you find, open your mind
Give me up till you touch me

All the nasty boys, come on get down
Whoever you find, open your mind
Seriously, touch me
And I'm fine, they're freaking mine

[Pre-Chorus]
That's all about me and you

[Outro]
Oh, I'm losing control
I'm gonna freak my soul, my soul let go
Seriously, I'm getting freaky...
