Red Light Special
TLC · Crazy Sexy Hits - The Very Best Of TLC [2007]
Look at it now
Might be the last time you'll
Have a go round
I'll let you touch it if you'd
Like to go down
I'll let you go further
If you take the southern route
Don't go too fast
Don't go to slow
You've got to let your body flow
I like 'em attentive
And I like 'em in control
Chorus:
Baby it's yours
All yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the Red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours
All yours
If you want it tonight
Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light
I know that you want me I can
see it in your eyes
You might as well be honest 'cause the
body never lies
tell me your secrets and I'll
(I'll) tell you mine
I'm feeling quite sexy
and I want you for tonight
If I move too fast just let me know
'Cause it means you move too slow
I like some excitement
And I like a man that goes
Chorus
If you want me let me know it
I'll make time but you've got to show it
If you need me I want to see
But don't mistake me
I don't want you down on your knees
I need someone a real man
I need someone who understands
I'm a woman
A real woman
I know just what I want
I know just who I am
Chorus
Red Light Special
As a staple of TLC's 'Crazy Sexy Cool' era, 'Red Light Special' exemplifies the group's signature blend of R&B and hip-hop. The track features the distinctive vocal delivery of Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes, showcasing her ability to deliver sharp, rhythmic verses that complement the group's melodic hooks. Released as part of their greatest hits collection, the song reflects the confident, assertive tone that defined their discography during the late 1990s. It remains a recognizable element of their catalog, often performed live and celebrated for its infectious energy and the seamless integration of all three members. The recording stands as a testament to the group's influence on contemporary R&B and their mastery of blending diverse vocal styles into a cohesive sound.
