These two friends (British Conor Maynard and American Anth) have been making great covers for quite a while. Now they released their first original song together. Awesome.
I can’t help it, I can’t focus, I can’t believe this
The way she move it, what she do got a secret
It’s like them jeans got me hypnotized, she shake it
I gotta holla 'cus I don’t think I can take it
The way she do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Look at the way that the girl just do it
Look how the girl just move to the music
Side to side, just like a pendulum
Hypnotized by her thighs, how she bending them
And you saw me on stage, watching the man flow
Saw you put it down all on the dance floor
So, I just wanna know, will you move for me?
Because the way that you move, I cannot believe
You lookin’ like a model with a body like a bottle
And baby you got me feeling like I just hit the lotto
And the way that you shake at such a fast pace
Got me and lost and dazed, I am stuck in your maze
Girl on fire, and it’s burning ya
But the girl got a secret like Victoria
And you say you can move it
Baby gotta prove it, Starsky & Hutch, baby do it, do it
I can’t help it, I can’t focus, I can’t believe this
The way she move it, what she do got a secret
It’s like them jeans got me hypnotized, she shake it
I gotta holla ‘cus I don’t think I can take it
The way she do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Gotta catch my breath now, gonna lose control
Every single part of me is telling me to go
Can you feel my heart like? Bump, bump, bump
Take you to the bed just like, bump, bump, bump
Come here just a little bit closer, so you can feel it
Like a DJ, we’ll chop and screw it, screw – screw it – screw it
Get on my turntables, we’ll make some music music
I don’t know how you do it, I just like the way you do 'it
I think you should show me tonight, how you do it
I can’t help it, I can’t focus, I can’t believe this
The way she move it, what she do got a secret
It’s like them jeans got me hypnotized, she shake it
I gotta holla ‘cus I don’t think I can take it
The way she do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
I can’t help it, I can’t focus, I can’t believe this
The way she move it, what she do got a secret
It’s like them jeans got me hypnotized, she shake it
I gotta holla ‘cus I don’t think I can take it
The way she do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
Do it, do it, do it, do – do it, how she do it
