For Your Entertainment
Adam Lambert · For Your Entertainment [2009]
Turn it up, heat it up I need to be entertained
Push the limit, are you with it baby don't be afraid
I'ma hurt you real good baby
Let's go, it's my show baby do what I say
Don't trip off the glitz that I'm gonna display
I told 'ya I'ma hold you down until you're amazed
Give it to 'ya 'til you're screaming my name
No escaping, where to start?
Once I'm in I own your heart
There's no way to ring the alarm
So hold on until it's over
Oh, do you know what you got into?
Can you handle what I'm 'bout to do?
Cuz it's about to get rough for you
I'm here for your entertainment
Oh, I bet you thought that I was soft and sweet
You thought and angel swept you off your feet
Well I'm about to turn up the heat
I'm here for your entertainment
It's alright, you'll be fine baby I'm in control
Take the pain, take the pleasure I'm the master of both
Close your eyes, not your mind; let me into your soul
I'm gonna work it 'til you're totally blown
No escaping, where to start?
Once I'm in I own your heart
There's no way to ring the alarm
So hold on until it's over
Oh, do you know what you got into?
Can you handle what I'm 'bout to do?
Cuz it's about to get rough for you
I'm here for your entertainment
Oh, I bet you thought that I was soft and sweet
You thought and angel swept you off your feet
Well I'm about to turn up the heat
I'm here for your entertainment
Do you like what you see?
Let me entertain you 'til you scream
Oh, do you know what you got into?
Can you handle what I'm 'bout to do?
Cuz it's about to get rough for you
I'm here for your entertainment
Oh, I bet you thought that I was soft and sweet
You thought and angel swept you off your feet
Well I'm about to turn up the heat
I'm here for your entertainment
