Fergie ferg, what's up, baby?

When I come to the club, step aside (oh, shit)
Pop the seats, don't be hating me in the line (oh, shit)
VIP 'cause you know I gotta shine (oh, shit)
I'm Fergie Ferg, and me love you long time (oh, shit)

All my girls get down on the floor (oh, shit)
Back to back, drop it down real low (oh, shit)
I'm such a lady, but I'm dancing like a ho (oh, shit)

How come every time you come around
My London, London bridge wanna go down?

And my speech starts slurring
Everybody start looking real good

The gray goose got your girl feeling loose
Now I'm wishing that I didn't wear these shoes (I hate heels)
It like every time I get up on the dude
Paparazzi put my business in the news
Better get up out my face (oh, shit)
Before I turn around and spray your ass with mace (oh, shit)
My lips make you wanna have a taste (oh, shit)
You got that? 
I've got the bass

[Chorus x 2]

Hey London, ATL, Cali collabo, Fergie and Polo

When I come to the club, step aside (oh, shit)
Pop the seats, don't be hating me in the line (oh, shit)
VIP 'cause you know I've gotta shine (oh, shit)
I'm Fergie Ferg, and me love you long time (oh, shit)

All my girls get down on the floor (oh, shit)
Back to back, drop it down real low (oh, shit)
I'm such a lady, but I'm dancing like a ho (oh, shit)
'Cause you know I don't give a f*ck, so here we go (oh, shit) 

[Chorus x 2]

(F*ck you, bitches!)
