Unlock It – Charli XCX

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Lock it, lock it, unlock it

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

(Beautiful)

Rollercoaster ride in the fast lane

Got the roof down, kiss me hard in the rain

You got the candy-colored eyes, pink and gold chain

Million dollar babe, whip it out like I’m propane

You’re on my mind

I’m feelin’ kinda nervous but I like it

Take my T-shirt off and do it right

You’re on my mind

The feelin’, like an astronaut

Watchin’ the world all alone, just you and I (you and I)

(Beautiful)

Rollercoaster ride in the fast lane

Got the roof down, kiss me hard in the pourin’ rain

Yeah, I can see it in your eyes, know you feel the same

Million dollar babe, trippin’ on it like propane

(Beautiful)

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Lock it, lock it, unlock it

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Got the key, can you unlock it?

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Lock it, lock it, unlock it

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Got the key, can you unlock it?

Caught in a lip lock, when we pit stop

Cosmic kiss, tastes like cherry maraschino

Ride, passenger seat, tropical heat

Eyes so red, you could be my Valentino, yeah (Woo-ah!)

If you want my heart, then don’t you drop it

(Want my heart, then don’t you drop it)

I’m right here, right in your pocket

(I’m right here, right in your pocket)

Pull it, cock it, never stop it

(Never stop it)

If you want my love (my love!), try to unlock it

Rollercoaster ride in the fast lane

Got the roof down, kiss me hard in the pourin’ rain

Yeah, I can see it in your eyes, know you feel the same

Million dollar babe, trippin’ on it like propane

(Beautiful)

Unlock the swag, Rae Sremmurd

Make you hit them high notes, like you a tenor

Tell the big appetite, girl, you my dinner

I know they could do you, but I could do it better

Bring me out to London, yeah (U.K.)

I can show you somethin’, yeah (somethin’)

Unlock your clothes off your body

Give you lovin’, yeah (let’s get it)

‘Cause that’s how we do (that’s how we do)

You wantin’ me too (wantin’ me too)

Your top be see-through, ooh (top be see-through)

I like the preview (like the preview)

We not there yet, girl, but we on the way (way, way)

We on the surfboard, yeah, we ridin’ waves (waves, waves)

Let’s get it going, girl, let’s ándale (ándale)

Let’s ándale (ándale), sip this champagne (ah)

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it

Lock it, lock it, unlock it

Lock it, lock it, lock-lock it
