No!
I'm goin' down 2 Alphabet Street
I'm gonna crown the first girl that I meet
I'm gonna talk so sexy, she'll want me from my head 2 my feet

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yes she will (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Uh
I'm gonna drive my daddy's Thunderbird (My daddy's Thunderbird)
A white rad ride, '66 ('67) so glam - it's absurd
I'm gonna put her (bop, bop) in the back seat and drive her…
2 Tennessee

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Mm, mm, mm (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Tennessee (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Drive her!
(Yeah) {Repeat in the background vocals}

Excuse me, baby - I don't mean 2 be rude
I guess 2night I'm just not, I'm just not in the mood
So if U don't mind I would like 2... watch (Ooh)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ow! Can I? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ow! (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Can I, can I, can I, can I, can I?
We're goin' down, down, down, if that's the only way
2 make this cruel, cruel world hear what we got 2 say
Put the right letters 2gether and make a better day (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Better days (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's OK (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Maybe it's the only way
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
(Put-put-put your…)
Cat, we need U 2 rap (No!)
Cat, we need U 2 rap
Don't give it 2 us slow
Cuz we know U know
New Power Soul
Gotta, gotta, gotta go! (N-N-No!)
(Put your love down) {Repeat in the background vocals}

Talk 2 me lover, come and tell me what U taste
Didn't your mama tell U life is 2 good 2 waste?
Did she tell U Lovesexy was the glam of them all?
U can hang, U can trip on it, U surely won't fall
No side effects, the feeling last 4ever
Straight up, it tastes good, it makes U feel clever
U kiss your enemies like U know U should
And then U jerk your body like a horny pony would
U jerk your body like a horny pony would
Now run and tell your mama about that!
And while U're at it, tell your pop about this!

(Yeah, yeah)
Put your love down, baby, when your money get shot
No! (Yeah, yeah)
Put your love down, baby, when your money get shot (Ho!) {x3}
(Ho!)
Put your love down, baby
(Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, ho - Alphabet Street (No!)
L-L-L-L-Lovesexy! (No!)
Woo!
Yeah, ho - Alphabet Street {x2}
A (Yeah, yeah)
B, C, D, E, F, H
I love U
