I turn it on, I set the tone
And I know I’m ready to go
I saw you waking up against the wall
And I knew you were ready to go

Tonight, I’m a different guy
Forget about the things you know
And if you wanna do it, we can do it right
I can see you coming whole

Cause you’re ready to go
Is that a yes or no

Cause I’m ready to go
I’m ready to go
If you say so

Tell me something, we’re out of time
Show me that this is it
Don’t change your mind (Go, go out, they sss, they sss, go out, out)

I turn it on, I set the tone
And I know I’m ready to go

Tonight, I’m a different guy
Forget about the things you know
And if you wanna do it, we can do it right
I can see you coming whole

Cause you’re ready to go
Is that a yes or no
Cause you’re ready to go
Is that a yes or no

Cause I’m ready to go
I’m ready to go (Go, go out, they sss, they sss, go out, out)

Cause I’m ready to go
I’m ready to go
If you say so

Cause I’m ready to go
I’m ready to go
