She's got a date for lunch in Singapore, Holds stock in I.B.M. and hates Dior. She puts up her make-up on at 6.00am She goes to work, gets home then puts it on again And its a mystery how wild that girl can be She's got so much energy She's such an expert at surprising me She's hyperactive when she starts to dance And she's so attracted to a wild romance And more effective than a stimulant She's hyperactive. She's hyperactive when she starts to dance She never missed a beat or missed a chance And I'm persuaded by her argument She's hyperactive The other dancers hyperventilate and start to sweat One look at her - I know the nights not over yet She says, Where are we going now? Her voice is sweet and soft I think she lost the key that turns her motor off And its a mystery how wild that girl can be She's got so much energy She's such an expert at surprising me She's hyperactive when she starts to dance She never missed a beat or missed a chance And I'm persuaded by her argument. She's hyperactive She's hyperactive when she starts to dance And she's so attracted to a wild romance And more effective than a stimulant She's hyperactive And its a mystery how wild that girl can be She's got so much energy She's such an expert at surprising me She's hyperactive when she starts to dance And she's so attracted to a wild romance And more effective than a stimulant She's hyperactive She's hyperactive when she starts to dance She never missed a beat or missed a chance And I'm persuaded by her argument She's hyperactive. She's hyperactive when she starts to dance She never missed a beat or missed a chance And more effective than a stimulant She's hyperactive She's hyperactive when she starts to dance She never missed a beat or missed a chance And more effective than a stimulant She's hyperactive
