Alright lets do this….
Ohh ooo ooo
We in the club now…come on
Show girls on the floor
Dirty eyes hot and spice
Hit them-a get them-a
Rid them-a dilemma
Machaan inga vanthira?…
Malappa enna paathira?..
Maraikaamal marukaamal uraipeera?…
Poovai kaana vanthira?..
Thenai thaedi vanthira?…
Pothaamal pooncholai ketppira?…
Indru nee punithan illai
Thaluvida thadaiyae illai

Itty bitty itty bitty waist
Moves and her grooves
On the pole in the dance floor
Witty witty witty witty babes
Wine with a shine
And a take at her zamboo
Hip hop and the beat box
Who gonna rub my body off
Big bob never gonna stop
3am come and drop me off

Alright, let's do this...
Ohh ooo ooo
We're in the club now... come on
Show girls on the floor
Dirty eyes, hot and spice
Hit them, get them
Rid them of dilemma
Machan (handsome guy), did you come here?
Did you stare at me in stunned awe?
Will you tell me honestly, without hiding or denying it?
Did you come just to see the flower?
Did you come in search of honey?
Or, not satisfied, will you ask for the entire flower garden?
Tonight, you are no saint,
There is nothing holding us back from embracing.
Except for me resting in your lap,
There is no movement in the entire world.
I swept in like a storm of desire,
I brushed myself against your mustache,
I locked my chest against yours,
And awakened the beast inside you.
Machan (handsome guy), did you come here?
Did you stare at me in stunned awe?
Will you tell me honestly, without hiding or denying it... ah...
Itty bitty, itty bitty waist
Moves and her grooves
On the pole on the dance floor
Witty, witty, witty, witty babes
Wine with a shine
And a take at her zamboo
Hip-hop and the beatbox
Who's gonna rub my body down?
Big bob never gonna stop
3 AM, come and drop me off
Oh, in pleasure and in the night,
Differences of skin color do not matter.
When people come close together,
Nobody is different from anyone else.
When showering kisses,
There are no rules or purities to follow.
When reaching the heights of ecstasy,
You and I are not two separate souls.
Stirring up a rush of boiling blood,
Waking up all the wildest fantasies,
Act them out in broad daylight!
My count runs 24/7, Machan... Machan!
Machan (handsome guy), did you come here?
Did you stare at me in stunned awe?
Will you tell me honestly, without hiding or denying it?
Tonight, you are no saint,
There is nothing holding us back from embracing.
Except for me resting in your lap,
There is no movement in the entire world.
I swept in like a storm of desire,
I brushed myself against your mustache,
I locked my chest against yours,
And awakened the beast inside you.
Yo... da da da da da da da...
La la la la la la la...
Na na na na na na na na na na...
La la la la la la lay ah ah...
