Lyrics

Twisted

[Intro: Usher & Pharrell]

Let me put my shades on

Everybody come around

[Chorus: Usher]

You got it twisted

Now tell me, why you wanna do me that way?

You got it twisted

You introducing shit, you know I don't play

You had me looking stupid, but I let it go that way

That booty substituted, guess that made it okay

You had me stuck on stupid, but I let it go that way

I'm suffering from delusion, I should put myself away

[Verse 1: Usher]

All the time and money I've spent

Can't believe what I'm in, it ain't right

If I come back, do you promise it's gon' be you and me and the sea?

"Whatever"

No?

[Chorus: Usher]

You got it twisted

Now tell me, why you wanna do me that way?

You got it twisted

You introducing shit, you know I don't play

You had me looking stupid, but I let it go that way

Pharrell Williams

That booty substituted, guess that made it okay

You had me stuck on stupid, but I let it go that way

I'm suffering from delusion, I should put myself away

[Verse 2: Usher]

How come I every time my crew around

Just so happen you around, you got to show out?

It ain't right

And all that flinging your hair, glossing your lips

Shaking your hips every time you go out

[Chorus: Usher]

You got it twisted

Now tell me, why you wanna do me that way?

You got it twisted

You introducing shit, you know I don't play

You had me looking stupid, but I let it go that way

That booty substituted, guess that made it okay

You had me stuck on stupid, but I let it go that way

I'm suffering from delusion, I should put myself away

[Interlude: Pharrell]

Hey, all the girls, all the girls

Make sure your skirt ain't too tight

What we doing is gon' have a lot of fun

With me and you, tonight, come on

[Bridge: Usher]

You gotta twist it to the left and twist it to the right

Twist it like you love it, go twist that thing all night

Twist it to the left and twist it to the right

Twist it like you love it, yeah, twist that thing all night

[Verse 3: Pharrell]

She felt so alive, said her home life was so dead

Twenty of us on Vespas and Mopeds

Oh, there she go in there, oh, can I hold that?

What you talking ‘bout? Go ahead, forehead

Told her homegirl, now it’s getting worse and

And I was trying to hook her up with Usher

So I gave her that white Chanel lipstick

She said “How you get more out?” Twist it

[Chorus: Usher]

You got it twisted

Now tell me, why you wanna do me that way?

You got it twisted

You introducing shit, you know I don't play

So glad you had me looking stupid, but I let it go that way

That booty substituted, guess that made it okay

You had me stuck on stupid, but I let it go that way

I'm suffer from delusion, I should put myself away

[Outro: Usher]

Oh yeah, I see you

Keep twisting, baby

She can't ever get enough
