Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Do you like this?
This place that I’m bringing you to?
Because I do
Oh, my God
[Verse 1]
I know this place is still a secret
And I don’t think you’ve ever been
It’s kind of hard to find the entrance
You need some juice
But you’ll love it once you get in
This special place is in the basement
You have to work your way around
The place is hot and then it’s pumping
So are you ready to go down?
[Chorus]
So it’s over to you now
So it’s over to you now, now (Yeah)
It was over to you now
Can’t you see what I’m thinking-ing? (Yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2]
If you behave, you might be chosen
Just read the flyer
And it tells you how to get there
And when you come
You might be stunned there
So, baby, what you waiting for?
[Chorus]
So it’s over to you now
So it’s over to you now, now, yeah
It was over to you now
Can’t you see what I’m thinking-ing? (Yeah)
So it’s over to you now
So it’s over to you now, now, yeah
It was over to you now
Can’t you see what I’m thinking-ing? (Yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Interlude]
Do you like this?
This place that I’m bringing you to?
Do you feel that? Huh?
Do you like that?
I thought you would
'Cause I do
Oh, my God
[Chorus]
So it’s over to you now
So it’s over to you now, now (Yeah)
It was over to you now
Can’t you see what I’m thinking-ing? (Yeah)
So it’s over to you now
So it’s over to you now, now (Yeah)
And it’s over to you now
Can’t you see what I’m thinking-ing? (Yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Outro]
Oh, my God
