Ecstasy in the air
I don't care
Can't tell me nothing
I'm impaired
No worse for wear
'Cause I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going-
Can't you see?
Ain't it clear?
I don't care
Get closer to me
If you dare
I double dare
'Cause I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going -
I'm plastered (dry wall)
Look me in my (eyeball)
Do I look high? (No)
I love the way you, lie girl
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come here dear, I'm tryna get closer to you
I'm motioning you to pull over boo
I'm the siren that you (hear, hear)
I'm the butt police, and I'm looking at your rear, rear, rear
But odds are I'ma end up in the back of a squad car
By the end of tonight, I'm a rock star
Get your wind up, it's attack of the oddball
Homie, can you show me where the gosh darn bath salts are?
'Cause I'm sick of sniffing asphalt
Every thought scarred, got my pants off at the crosswalk
In suspenders, and I can't feel my limbs 'cause-
'Cause I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let the champagne splash, let that man get cash)
I'm going numb, I'm going numb (let that man get past, let that man get cash)
I'm going-
