- Meaning
[Intro]
Come on baby
Don't be shy
[Verse 1]
Show me, what you got there
What you got behind your back and why you're doing that
You really think you know me, are you lead free?
Well that's taken off the shine
Have you lost your freaking mind
[Verse 2]
Come on and show me
Take it easy
Before you fall into a trap and then sumpt'ns going splat
Or we could negotiate
I could raise my hat
And, baby, what you think of that?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're on a hiding all for nothing
We're not going anywhere
Until you give a little something
[Chorus]
If you want me, really want me
And you're putting on the pressure
Got your fingers on the treasure
You could hit me
Hmm
Knock me down with a feather
It's partic'ly nasty weather
If you take me, then you shake me
Take me down to the cleaners
There'll be nothing left between us
I could stop you in a heartbeat
That'll be appealing
'Cause I love to hear you squealing
Depends on what you're thinking
How far you want to go
Will you swim or are you sinking
[Bridge]
It's another way of saying
You have to keep this to yourself
You never know who might be listening
And think we're up to something else
[Outro]
I hope you know just what you're doing
I hope you get what you desire
It all depends on what you're thinking
Will you swim or are you sinking
