Intro

Verse 1

I’m getting myself in something I don’t wanna

I’m getting caught up in him but I don’t wanna

I’m getting off track and I can’t control a thing, a thing

I’m telling myself it’s not a good idea

But the more I hesitate the more I fall for him

I’m tryin’ to erase his face from my memory

Chorus 1

And then a boom shalaka he’s walkin’ up-a to me

Boom shalaka he start’s a-talkin to me

Boom shalaka my heart skips a

Boom shalaka laka boom boom

Verse 2

The more I hang there the more I get wrapped up in him

Imagine myself in the chair I was sittin’ in

And every little thing he said comes back to me, to me

The more I get scared of losin’ I’m afraid to say

Where can I go at the same time it excites me

Gotta get him outta my head, get on with me

(repeat Chorus 1)

Chorus 2

Boom shalaka eyes come in contact a

Boom shalaka starin’ me down talk a

Boom shalaka my heart skips a

Boom shalaka laka ah

Bridge

He make my head go (boom boom)

He make my breath go (shaka laka)

Wherever I go (boom boom)

And everything goes (shaka)

Verse 3

I tell myself, no I’m not gonna do this

I promise myself, no I’m not gonna do this

Doesn’t matter what he says, I know he’s no good for me, no no no no

(repeat Chorus 1, Chorus 2)
