[Intro]
I'm not gonna do
While lookin' at you (Oh-whoa)
I look for the sight
And not what I bite

Hello! (Okay— ooh-eh-eh-ooh-oy)
(Mmm, oy)
(Go outside!)
(Here we go! Ah—)

While lookin' at you
I look for the sight
And not what I bite
[Interlude]
(Got any more to discuss?)

(Ha ha ha!)
(C'mon!)
[Verse]
Meet me in the back and you'll find out why (Meet me in the back and you'll find out why)
I was dancing to your house last Wednesday night (I was dancing to your house last Wednesday night)
I caught a little word of something you said (I caught a little word of something you said)
No, I can't let little prose come out of my head, ha
[Pre-Chorus]
Stoplight (Haha!)
Ape-like attention
Stoplight
Ape-like attention

I'm not gonna do
While lookin' at you

While lookin' at you
I look for the sight
And not what I bite
