LyricsEdit
Put the radio on
Put the radio on (hello)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
Sugar and spice, everything nice
Keep me on lockdown, put me on ice
'Cause I'm a really good girl, you a very bad guy
We're a little match made in heaven if I say so
Yayo, come over here, boy, and play-oh
Work it out, work it right, baby's lockin' low tonight
Work it out, keep it tight, you're so rock and roll
Sold your soul now, baby
Put the radio on
(Huh, huh)
Put the radio on
(Yes, yes)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
Put the radio on
(And take a breath)
Put the radio on
(Come over here)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong for you
Peaches and cream, everyone's dream
You think you like me now, you should hear me sing
'Cause, baby, I'm a fly girl and you're a big shot
If we got together I know it would be hot-hot
Say so, stay-oh, I'll give you somethin' to pray for
Work it out, work it right, baby's lockin' low tonight
Work it out, keep it tight, so rock and roll
Sold your soul now, baby
Put the radio on
(Huh, huh)
Put the radio on
(Yes, yes)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
P-p-put the radio on
(And take a breath)
Put the radio on
(Come over here)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong for you
I'm waiting by your back door, let me come in
I got your favorite dress on, long hair pinned up
I like you lots
Polka dots of desire in your thoughts
Thinkin' of you, dreamin' of us
I like you lots
Polka dots of desire in your thoughts
Thinkin' of you, dreamin' of us
Put the radio on
(Huh, huh)
Put the radio on
(Yes, yes)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
Put the radio on
(And take a breath)
Put the radio on
(Come over here)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong for you
You know I got a taste for tonic and gin
You know I got a eye for fur and fine things
Know that I'm to die for, baby, give in
Told you when we met what you were in for
Put the radio on
(Huh, huh)
Put the radio on
(Yes, yes)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
Put the radio on
(And take a breath)
Put the radio on
(Come over here)
I don't wanna know I'm wrong
I don't wanna know I'm wrong for you
