[Verse 1: Megan & Manon]
Hot like a bullet
Flying too fast, I couldn't catch it
Heart in the casket
You always knew it
The starring role, the main attraction
Got cameras flashing
[Pre-Chorus: Lara & Sophia]
Like, ooh
You got everybody's eyes undressing you
And I see it too
Yeah, ooh
You could have anyone else you wanted to
I'm beggin' you
[Chorus: Yoonchae, Manon, Lara & Daniela]
Hands off, Gabriela, Gabriela
Hands off, Gabriela-la-la
Back off of my fella, Gabriela
Back off, Gabriela-la-la
'Cause, ooh
You could have anyone else you wanted to
I'm beggin' you (Hey)
Hands off, Gabriela, Gabriela
Hands off, Gabriela-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 2: Megan & Yoonchae]
Skin amaretto
I bet you taste just like the summer
Under the covers (Hey)
Me in the middle
Overprotective of my lover
You make me wonder
[Pre-Chorus: Lara & Sophia]
Like, ooh
If you made all of these fantasies come true
What would you do?
Yeah, ooh
You could have anyone else you wanted to
But I'm beggin' you
[Chorus: Yoonchae, Manon, Lara & Daniela]
Hands off, Gabriela, Gabriela
Hands off, Gabriela-la-la
Back off of my fella, Gabriela
Back off, Gabriela-la-la
'Cause, ooh
You could have anyone else you wanted to
I'm beggin' you (Hey)
Hands off, Gabriela, Gabriela
Hands off, Gabriela-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Post-Chorus: Megan]
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la (Oh, no)
[Bridge: Daniela]
Él llegó conmigo y conmigo se va
Sus ojos son mío', eso no va a cambiar
Me quiere a mí y no importan las demás
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Él llegó conmigo y conmigo se va
Sus ojos son mío', eso no va a cambiar
Me quiere a mí y no importan las demás
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[Chorus]
Hands off, Gabriela, Gabriela
Hands off, Gabriela-la-la (Gabriela)
Back off of my fella, Gabriela
Back off, Gabriela-la-la (Oh, Gabriela-la-la)
'Cause, ooh
You could have anyone else you wanted to
I'm beggin' you (I'm beggin' you; Hey)
Hands off, Gabriela (Gabriela, hands off), Gabriela
Hands off (Hands off), Gabriela-la-la, la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la)
[Outro: Megan & Daniela]
La-la-la-la (La-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la (La-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la
(Back off, back off, back off)

Sophia:
It’s a play on confidence and on competition, and it’s just a play on narrow vision.
Manon:
If your partner doesn’t make you feel secure or makes you feel like you do need to worry about potential other Gabrielas or Gabrielos, maybe you are dating the Gabriela or Gabrielo.
Sophia:
