How Many Drinks?

Miguel · Kaleidoscope Dream [2012]

Frustration, watching you dance

Invitation, to get in them pants

Come closer baby, so I can touch

One question, am I movin' too fast?



Cause I ain't leavin alone, feel like I could be honest, babe!

We both know that we're grown

That's why I wanna know

How many drinks would it take you to leave with me?

Yeah, you look good and I got money

But I don't wanna waste my time

Back of my mind I'm hopin you say two or three

You look good, we came to party

But I don't wanna waste my time



Temptation, is calling your name

Sweet persuasion, baby this is a game

Come closer, baby, if you like what you hear

Impression, is what I'm makin you feel



Cause I ain't leavin alone, feel like I could be honest, babe!

We both know that we're grown

That's why I wanna know

How many drinks would it take you to leave with me?

Yeah, you look good and I got money

But I don't wanna waste my time

Back of my mind I'm hopin you say two or three

You look good, we came to party

But I don't wanna waste my time (waste my time)



No, no, no

I ain't judgin

If you do decide that you might be f-ckin tonight, what?

More power to you if you do decide that you might be f-ckin tonight

Le-le-let me dig that out like a fossil

Damn baby that ass is colossal

Pilates a mill did that body so good

You've gotten a pair I wish I could



How many drinks would it take you to leave with me?

You look good and we came to party but I don't wanna waste my time.

Back of my mind I'm hopin you say two or three

Agree? Indeed

You look good and we came to party but don't wanna

waste my time, Or waste your time, or waste your time, or waste our time

Baby it's alright, baby it's alright, baby it's alright

Oh it's alright now, alright, oh yeah

I don't wanna waste my time

I don't wanna waste no time

I don't wanna waste your time

I don't wanna waste our time,

Or my time



How many drinks would it take you to leave with me?

Yeah, you look good and I got money

But I don't wanna waste my time

Back of my mind I'm hopin you say two or three

You look good, we came to party

But I don't wanna waste my time (waste my time)



No, no, no

I ain't judgin

If you do decide that you might be f-ckin tonight, what?

More power to you if you do decide that my might be f-ckin tonight

I ain't judgin

If you do decide that you might be f-ckin tonight, what?

More power to you if you do decide that my might be f-ckin tonight



Let's go, sh-t

You only live once right?

I mean, where's the fun in forever anyway?
