Okay it’s the weekend, when all the freaks enter
Into Friday night, starting fights until the mornin’ light
It’s so right, it ain’t time for thinkin’
It’s time to sink into the dance floor, glance at the door to see who’s in store
Before the entryway, one, two, three, foreplay
Your day, my day
Don’t try to hold my hand, boy
You know where I stand, be a man, what’s the plan, boy?
Lookin’ like you’re standin’ in quicksand, boy
Can I help you understand, boy?
That sex ain’t love, it’s tests and drugs, the next step up just messy stuff
Caress me up and down, I think I found the one for now
Until I’m bored, but that’s what the next one’s for
Hella helicopters takin’ flight
I’ma let you do your thing tonight
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright
Hella helicopters take us there
If we don’t fight it we’ll go anywhere
But to where? To where? To where? Do we care?
Yeah we’re soarin’ it, floorin’ it, to your apartment a compartment of
Departmental central education in relations, temptations, and relaxations
If you use me, use me right, bruise and fight me all night
Free me like the breeze in the trees viewed from the blue sky
The fly with my, don’t be shy with me, take the lead
Make me see your ecstasy, take the rest of me it’s not the best of me, shit
It’s already nine in the mornin’? I’m torn, should I leave before I’m stuck talkin’?
Walk of shame or walk of fame? Hmm no wait, it’s the walk of game
Plain and simple, write it down, here’s a pencil
Stencil that into your brain
Hella helicopters takin’ flight
I’ma let you do your thing tonight
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright
Hella helicopters take us there
If we don’t fight it we’ll go anywhere
But to where? To where? To where? Do we care?
