LYRICS

Pleasure is my thing, I want to tell you.
I'll do what you want me to, or I'll do nothing at all!
(chorus 1)
I just want to be what you want me to be.
Wind it up and see what you want me to be.
I just want to be what you want me to be.
A get me hot and see what you want me to be.

(chorus 2)
If you want me to, I'll do it.
If you want to dance lets get to it.
Let's not take too long let's move it.
Cause if you take too long, you lose it.

(chorus 3)
Who said that funk was done just by one.
Who said that it was never ever done?
Who said the two of us couldn't groove.
It wasn't me but maybe it was you.

(chorus 4)
Music is here for everyone.
Just to dance just to have some fun.
Just because, we did it before.
Doesn't mean we can't have some more.

(chorus 5)
I just want to be what you want me to be.
Wind it up and see what you want me to be.
I just want to be what you want me to be.
I'll be your freaky deak if you want me to be.

Play my music loud I'll do my dance for you.
Cause when the music's pumping its hard to tell what we're gonna do.
If you think you can we'll dance to death all night.
Cause the pleasure I can give will make things turn out right.

If you want me to, I'll do it.
If you want to dance lets get to it.
Let's not take too long let's move it.
Cause if you take too long, you lose it.

(chorus 3)
Who said that funk was done just by one.
Who said that it was never ever done?
Who said the two of us couldn't groove.
It wasn't me but maybe it was you.

(chorus 4)
Music is here for everyone.
Just to dance just to have some fun.
Just because, we did it before.
Doesn't mean we can't have some more.

(chorus 5)
I just want to be what you want me to be.
Wind it up and see what you want me to be.
I just want to be what you want me to be.
I'll be your freaky deak if you want me to be.

Music will make things turn out right
And I will dance till the broad day light
Feel my body fulfill your needs
Cause I know you're hungry
And I'm here to please
Alright, alright, alright, alright!

I just want to be what you want me to be.
Wind it up and see what you want me to be.
I just want to be what you want me to be.
I'll be your freaky deak if you want me to be.

Who said that funk was done just by one.
Who said that it was never ever done?
Who said the two of us couldn't groove.
It wasn't me but maybe it was you.

(chorus 4)
Music is here for everyone.
Just to dance just to have some fun.
Just because, we did it before.
Doesn't mean we can't have some more.

Who said? We said? Who said
