Pound The Alarm Lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Come fill my glass up a little more
We 'bout to get up and burn this floor
You know we gettin' hotter and hotter
Sexy and hotter, let's shut it down (Uh)

[Verse 1]
Yo, what I gotta do to show these girls that I own 'em?
Some call me Nicki and some call me Roman
Skeeza, please, I'm in Ibiza, woah
Giuseppe Zanotti, my own sneaker
Sexy, sexy, that’s all I do
If you need a bad bitch, let me call a few
Pumps on and them little mini-skirts is out
I see some good girls, I'ma turn 'em out
Okay, bottle, sip, bottle, guzzle
I'm a bad bitch, no muzzle, eh?
Bottle, sip, bottle, guzzle
I'm a bad bitch, no muzzle, let's go

[Pre-Chorus]
Music makes me high

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Come fill my glass up a little more
We 'bout to get up and burn this floor
You know we gettin' hotter and hotter
Sexy and hotter, let's shut it down
Pound the alarm
[Drop]
Pound the alarm

[Verse 2]
I wanna do it for the night, night
So get me now and knock this over
I wanna do it like you like, like
Come get me, baby, we're not gettin' younger
I just want you tonight-night
Baby, we won't do it for life, life, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Music makes me high

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Come fill my glass up a little more
We 'bout to get up and burn this floor
You know we gettin' hotter and hotter
Sexy and hotter, let's shut it down
Pound the alarm

[Drop]
Pound the alarm

[Bridge]
Alarm, alarm
Alarm, alarm
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Come fill my glass up a little more
We 'bout to get up and burn this floor
You know we gettin' hotter and hotter
Sexy and hotter, let's shut it down
Pound the alarm

[Drop]
Pound the alarm
Pound the alarm
