Flower bomb, can I blow up on your mindThis is not no Sandra Bull, but you're Potion #9Navigating through her eyes, destination to her thighsAnd I hate to tell you too much, 'cause I stay with too much prideAnd we way too young to know love, maybe not but we don't need no rushDon't believe in love at first sight, but I believe in love at first huhCan I be with you just one night? I could wear you out insideI could tell you like persistence, but I make you cum in tri'sI just think we need one night, can't decide if I came rightEasy baby my thing tight, but that lotus flower just ain't rightI ain't thinking I ain't right, can't decide, but I can't fightEasy baby you the bomb and all, but I be damned if I do not land mineOr at least try, can I speak up? Was it peace out? Can we eat lunch?Can we take shots with your flavor? Flat drinks we call A cupsI just think I need one night, slightly more if it's done rightWith that gorgeous face, I don't know your name, it ain't important babe 'causeI'ma call you mine
