Burlesque Queen

from That's My Story by Nik and Himself

lyrics

Going in that bar like i did before
waiting for the worst drink i've ever had
my butt implore me a confortable sit
everybody seems to feel ease

The bartender has always gazed upon me
i'm feeling like a stranger in my body
as soon as you will back to stage
that's the frame when my heart starts beating

and now i can barely breathe
the hot of your body, how hot is your body
i'm ready for your show

Stop now, don't you see that you're torturing me
with your nails you scratch my skin
trust me, this is not what you mean
Please wait, i know that's only your work
but you're not my toy at all
i show you how a woman has to feel

Peering through your curling purple skirt
while ungently guys are trying to catch like a fish
you whisper in my ear "it's ok"
"come with me into my room‚ are you afraid?"
The wooden stairs creak under you dizzy heels
you can't figure it out how it feels
when you take your dress off in front of me
i want to be more that a one night stand

Stop now, don't you see that you're torturing me
with your nails you scratch my skin
trust me, this is not what you mean
Please wait, i know that's only your work
but you're not my toy at all
i show you how a woman has to feel

Stop now, don't you see that you're torturing me
with your nails you scratch my skin
trust me, this is not what you mean
Stop now, don't you see that you're torturing me
with your nails you scratch my skin
trust me, this is not what you mean
Please wait, i know that's only your work
but you're not my toy at all
i show you how a woman has to feel
