Lakka lakka lakka lakka
Let's say dope!
For a happy, happy life,
the micro-mantra is "Dope!"
To the arguments that upset
your loved ones, say dope!
To the anger that always
makes you a loser, say dope!
For any kind of stress,
the instant solution is "Dope!"
Don't worry, don't worry,
enough of getting hurt!
To negative vibes now, say dope!
Bakeries, bakeries, oh no, all the calories!
To this teddy-bear belly,
give a solid knock!
Chatting, browsing, stealing all our time—
just give a "Dope!" to that cellphone!
Disturbing memories, ego, and jealousy,
to the torture of overthinking, just say "Dope!"
Dope!
If you are coming, if you are coming, everybody dope!
When you are with me, when you are with me, everything is dope!
If you look at me, look at me, all my stress drops away!
When you smile at me, even I am bowled over!
To the long wait between our meetings, say dope!
To the hesitation between our touches, say dope!
To the distance between our lips, say dope!
To your dress, my villain, say dope!
La la la la la la
Male: Dope!
Female: La la la la la la
Male: Dope!
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Waka waka waka waka
What say? Dope!
Lakka lakka lakka lakka
Let's say dope!
For a happy, happy life,
the micro-mantra is "Dope!"...
