Baby,
Does he do it for you
When he's finished, does he step back, and adore you
I just gotta know,
'Cause your time is money and I won't let him
Waste it, oh no, no
Baby,
Just go with it
'Cause when you're with me, I can't explain it,
It's just different
We can take it slow
Or act like you're my girl let's skip the basics,
Oh woah

He's so replaceable
You're worth the chase, you put it on

It's alright,
I'm not dangerous
When you're mine,
I'll be generous
You're irreplaceable, a collectible
Just like fine china

Favorite,
You're my favorite
It's like all the girls around me don't have faces
And the saying goes
Life is just a game but I'm not playin'
Whoah oh

He's so replaceable
You're worth the chase, you put it on

It's alright, I'm not dangerous
When you're mine, I'll be generous
You're irreplaceable
A collectible, (Just like)
Just like fine china

It's alright,
I'm not dangerous
When you're mine,
I'll be generous
You're irreplaceable a collectible,
Just like fine china

Give me a weapon, your love
Ain't no amount of time, in this world
Save me a lot of time, and just love me
Feel it baby, feel it in your soul
Are you ready?
I know your heart's been telling you belong me

Ah na na no

It's alright,
I'm not dangerous
When you're mine,
I'll be generous
You're irreplaceable a collectible,
Just like fine china

Ah
Yeah
Uh,
Uh no no
Yeah
