Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hey)
I wanna really, really, really wanna "Zig-a-zig", ah
If you want my future
Forget my past
If you wanna get with me
Better make it fast
Now, don't go wasting
My precious time
Get your act together
We could be just fine
I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
So tell me what you want, what you really, rеally want
I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hey), I wanna (Hеy)
I wanna really, really, really wanna "Zig-a-zig", ah
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta get with my friends (Gotta get with my friends)
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover
You have got to give
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is
So here's a story from A to Z
You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
We got 'em in the place who likes it in your face
We got G like MC who likes it on an—
Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady
And as for me, ha-ha, you'll see
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta get with my friends (Gotta get with my friends)
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover
You have got to give (You've got to give)
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta slam
Make it last forever (Slam, slam, slam)
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and "Zig-a-zig", ah
If you wanna be my lover
