Not everbody knows just how to do it
Some just learn it on the way
Once you get it right, ain't nothin to it
If you wanna get it right, you gotta learn to pace

Make it smooth, take your time
Make it groove, in, out, in
Make it last, kiss, kiss, kiss,
Kiss my ---, ah, ah, ah

This is how it works
Wrap your hands around my body
This is how it works
Go due south and
This is how it works
Melt yourself into my body
This is how it works
Kiss my mouth

Some guys think they know the answers
Everybody knows how to make you scream
If most guys took time out their fantasies
Maybe we could stop our make believe

Make it smooth, take your time
Make it groove, in, out, in
Make it last, kiss, kiss, kiss,
Kiss my ---, ah, ah, ah

Ready set go, you don't have to know
We can take forever, learn together any flow
Touch me slow, watch it grow
Kiss the tip, gently flow, be my ho and take the show
We can watch it in slo-mo, when the sweet & lo drips
Don't forget to let me wet my finger tips
Write love letters back & forth across your lips
Spread my hips, count to eighty, eighty ways, eighty trips

Make it smooth, take you time
One time for you mind, two times if ya tense baby let it unwind
Make it groove, in, out, in
Three counts let it bounce to the mother f___ing ounce
Make it last, kiss, kiss, kiss
Here we go, now you know 4th down, let if flow back around come on
Kiss my ---
Kiss my, kiss my , mm-wah
