“Your Body”
By Christina Aguilera
Came here tonight
To get you out of my mind
I’m gonna take what I find, oh yeah
So open the box
Don’t need no key I’m unlocked
And I won’t tell you to stop, oh yeah
Hey boy
I don’t need to know where you’ve been
All I need to know is you
And no need for talking
Hey boy
So don’t even tell me your name
All I need to know is whose place
And let’s get walking
Chorus
All I wanna do is love your body
Tonight’s your lucky night
I know you want it
It’s true what you heard
I am a freak, I’m disturbed
So come on and give me your worst, oh yeah
We’re moving faster than slow
If you don’t know where to go
I’ll finish off on my own, oh yeah
(Chorus)
I think you already know my name
