Selfish Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Okay, the shoe is going on the other foot tonight (La, la, la)
I'm 'bout to turn you into my very own flight tonight (La, la, la)
Okay, you think you got me where you want me
I'ma show you tonight (La, la, la)
[Pre-Chorus]
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight, you gon' be my, be my man
[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
[Verse 2]
Just lay right there and don't you move
I'm in control tonight (La, la, la)
Lock you up in my room, be my prisoner of love tonight (La, la, la)
Shut up, sit down, who's the boss now?
I'm 'bout to show you now (La, la, la)
Okay, the shoe is going on the other foot tonight (La, la, la)
I'm 'bout to turn you into my very own flight tonight (La, la, la)
Okay, you think you got me where you want me
I'ma show you tonight (La, la, la)
[Pre-Chorus]
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight, you gon' be my, be my man
[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
[Verse 2]
Just lay right there and don't you move
I'm in control tonight (La, la, la)
Lock you up in my room, be my prisoner of love tonight (La, la, la)
Shut up, sit down, who's the boss now?
I'm 'bout to show you now (La, la, la)
[Pre-Chorus]
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight, you gon' be my, be my man
[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
Tonight, I'm feelin' sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Tonight, I'm feelin' sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
That I'm a girl and you're a boy
And tonight, you gon' be my, be my man
[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight, I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Boom, boom, baby
Pick you up in my Mercedes
I'ma be a little selfish, be a little selfish
[Bridge]
Tonight, I'm feelin' sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
Tonight, I'm feelin' sexual
Come on and play inside my love below
Strip down and give me my own private show
I'm gonna be a little selfish, be a little selfish
