It's electric how my lipstick Makes its own way right into your kiss, and It's pathetic how we both get Kinda fucked up, hanging on each other We're ahead now, should we slow down? Should we slow down now? 'Cause I'm getting some kind of shake without you Uh-huh! I think you're movin' in too close But I think that it's my body wanting it the most, like Uh-huh! I don't know what it is I feel But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill, like Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill It's electric how symmetric We both get when you lay beside me It's phonetic how our mouths grip Almost too tight to the words we're sayin' We're in deep now, should we slow down? Should we slow down now? 'Cause I'm getting some kind of shake without you Uh-huh! I think you're movin' in too close But I think that it's my body wanting it the most, like Uh-huh! I don't know what it is I feel But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill, like Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill, like Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill Goin' in for the kill Goin' in for the kill It's rare when the panic in my mind Feels so damn good Woo! Uh-huh! I think you're movin' in too close But I think that it's my body wanting it the most, like Uh-huh! I don't know what it is I feel But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill, like Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill, like Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) Uh-huh! (Uh-huh!) But I know it's my emotions going in for the kill Goin' in for the kill Goin' in for the kill Uh-huh!
