Lyrics
High class Moolah Bolt ons Fast car Quick fix Freak out...hea hea Nose bleed Skull cap Pissed off Pissed on
I never seen a smile that looked so sad A yeah...you make me feel so good 'cause you're so bad
[Chorus] Hey little darlin' Your love is legendary Love's four letters Ain't in my dictionary 'Scuse my position But it ain't missionary Yeah but I want to Walk on the water with you...yeah
Boo-tay Hotpants Tan line Sweet stuff Hookah Boo yah Knocked Up Hose Down Cool cat Hot flash
When it comes to makin' love I ain't no hype...ha ha 'Cause I practice on a peach most every night
[Chorus]
Well, the cook's in the kitchen And hidin' the spoons I'm winkin' at witches And howlin' at moons I'm afraid of de candle But live for de flame You know who I am But you don't know my name
(Aha, ha, ha, ha)
[Chorus]
Hey little darlin' Your love is legendary You got the boo yah It's almost ficitonary 'Scuse my position But it ain't missionary Yeah, but I want to
Walk on the water with you...yeah...[3]
I never seen a smile that looked so sad A yeah...you make me feel so good 'cause you're so bad
Hey little darlin' Your love is legendary Love's four letters Ain't in my dictionary 'Scuse my position But it ain't missionary Yeah but I want to Walk on the water with you...yeah
Boo-tay Hotpants Tan line Sweet stuff Hookah Boo yah Knocked Up Hose Down Cool cat Hot flash
When it comes to makin' love I ain't no hype...ha ha 'Cause I practice on a peach most every night
Well, the cook's in the kitchen And hidin' the spoons I'm winkin' at witches And howlin' at moons I'm afraid of de candle But live for de flame You know who I am But you don't know my name
