    It was all good on a weekend
    She was servin' the pre drinks

    She would only text when she horny
    Next thing I know she callin' me like
    "How's the mumzy? Can we fly away to Zante?
    Baby, who's that girl in the selfie?
    Why you ain't call the whole week?"

    If you want your life easy
    Don't try and please me
    You won't get nowhere
    I'm on Kilimanjaro
    If you gonna aim low
    I can't take you there
    Maybe you feelin' the power
    Sweet and the sour
    I am a dangerous flower
    Baby you gettin' a fever
    I am your diva
    You are my golden retriever
    Wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna feel you
    And do what you do
    And all I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna see you
    I say voulez-vous

    Get away from all this hype
    Go and find the one you'd like
    No need remindin' to love you
    Ain't just tempted to touch you
    And anything you want to buy
    And anyway you want to fly
    No side guy, he's your guy
    I don't wanna blow up the phone line
