Lyrics

Taboo

You look like the type that should come wearin' a warning
I think, I think you know
What I really like, you're not talkin', but you're callin'
One drink, one drink, let's go

Now I'm flirting, and it's starting, why am I like this?
There's a yearnin', and you're burnin' and, yeah, I like it
Rules are breakin', and I'm taking a risk, count me in as I do it
Un, deux, trois

(Taboo)
I know I shouldn't, but I just can't help myself
(It's taboo)
I hope nobody here but you and I can tell

It's electric energy, when you get this close to me
Count me in, let's go, let's leave, un, deux, trois
Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo

The way that you move, oh, it's pure intoxication
One look, one look, I'm in
No names, no need to, just enjoy the situation
I'm in, I'm hooked on you

Now I'm flirting, and it's starting, why am I like this?
There's a yearnin', and you're burnin' and, yeah, I like it
Rules are breakin', and I'm taking risk, count me in as I do it
Un, deux, trois

(Taboo)
I know I shouldn't, but I just can't help myself
(It's taboo)
I hope nobody here but you and I can tell

Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo
Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Taboo, doo-doo, doo-doo

It's electric energy
It's electric energy
Count me in, let's go, let's leave
Un, deux, trois (taboo)
