Final version[]
(Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah)
I like 'em mad, bad, baby, you could be the one
If you wanna get trashed and have fun
Throw me wholly in the sky, like a pizza pie
(Are you crazy?)
You take my whole world, baby
And twist it to the right
Throw me in the air and whoop, like dynamite
Baby, you know anytime
You can swing by
You know I like 'em bad, boy
Wrong side of the track, boy, oh
You know I like 'em bad, boy, like you
(Like you, you know I do)
I like a man with kick, yeah (Uff)
So come around and hit me, oh
No other man can lick me like you
(Like you, you know what you do)
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
Tell me I should leave nearly every day
I'm not gonna do it, baby (No way)
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
You only show a little but you give me more
Behind, behind, behind, behind closed doors
(No one can see us)
(I know you like me)
I see my best friends kissin', touchin' all the time
But I don't need no jet to write it in the sky
See it in his eye, I'm his cherry pie
You know I like 'em bad, boy
They think you make me sad, boy, no
The best I ever had, boy, it's you
(Like you, you know I do)
I want a man that's hot, yeah (Uff)
To come around and rock me, yeah
No one can dirty talk me like you
(Like you, you know what you do)
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
Tell me I should leave nearly every day
But I'm not gonna do it, baby (no way)
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
You only show a little but you give me more
Behind, behind, behind, behind closed doors
Behind closed doors
Everybody's at the park tonight
Everybody's at the shore
Everybody's on the street tonight
What the hell would we do that for?
Everybody's at the park tonight
But we got fireworks galore
Behind closed doors, behind closed doors
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
Tell me I should leave nearly every day
I'm not gonna do it, baby (No way)
Everybody's sayin' you're no good for me
But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me
You only show a little but you give me more
Behind, behind, behind, behind closed doors
Behind closed doors
Behind closed doors
