lyrics

Well I waltzed onto the floor with a dance like any other
I was looking for a friend not just another lover
A salute to the guys that even ever tried to bother
With that red hair burning fire set everything a flutter
And then I start my slightly struttin' stride
Over to you as two sweaty salty bodies collide

My hands started dirty dancin'
lips moved with what I call attraction

I want you, gotta' have you, honey, baby I got you

Come on and turn me on (I wanna' turn you on)
I want the feeling of you (Baby don't you stop)
I want you out of control, I need you wet for the show
Whatever makes you feel whole, until you explode
Siren my love, I want to take you

Innocence in my throat was trying to save me (Baby what's wrong?)
I told you its a joke, I said I'm just feeling lazy (Come on baby please?)
And so we sat up and smoked, I was nervous to the bone, I told you I want control and stay away from my soul
I'll take what I want before you try to play me

We crashed through your apartment door (Uh, huh)
Against the wall, remove your clothes, behind the fridge and on the floor

I want you, gotta have you, honey, baby I got you

I spy with my hazy brown eyes a quaint little bedroom that's lookin' pretty nice
I sigh with a Cheshire smile a fancy little thing that really wants to get wild
"Mister don't you bullshit my bullshit"
Honey I got other entertainment
"Well I guess I really shouldn't complain then"
Well sink, line, and hooker
I really got you baited

Siren my love I wanna' take you home
Take you home
