Let me lick you up and down
'Til you say stop
Let me play with your body baby
Make you real hot
Let me do all the things you want me to do
'Cause tonight baby I want to get freaky with you

Baby don't you understand
I want to be your nasty man
I want to make your body scream
And you will know just what I
(You know what I mean)
24 carat gold
To warm the nights when you get cold
I want to lick you up and down
And then I want to lay you down
C'mon silk

[Chorus]
I love the taste of whip cream
Spread it on don't be mean
(Baby don't be mean)
You know I can't resist you girl
I'll fly you all around the world
(all around the world, oh baby)
I want to make your body drip
C'mon let me take a sip
(C'mon, c'mon, c'mon)
Take off what you cherish most
(C'mon,c'mon, come on, come on baby)
'Cause when I brag I like to brag and boast

[Chorus]

You, you, you, you
Oh you
You, you, you, you
Let me freak you
You, you, you, you
All of you
I want it, I want it
You, you, you, you
Oh you
You, you, you, you
Let me do you
'Cause tonight baby, I want to get freaky with you

[Chorus]

Silk

Silk is a natural protein fibre, some forms of which can be woven into textiles. The protein fibre of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and produced by certain insect larvae to form cocoons. The best-known type of silk is obtained from the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in captivity (sericulture). The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the triangular prism-like structure of the silk fibre, which allows silk cloth to refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colors. more »
