Todrick Hall – Papi lyrics
[Intro: Todrick Hall + Nicole Scherzinger]
I've been waiting my whole life to say this
But I am in Oz Angeles
And this woman, she is going to be the one to change my life
At least, that's what she tells me
I've read that this business is filled with dark times
But right now, in this moment, my future's looking pretty bright
Travis is it? You have a really big...big personality haha
[Verse 1: Nicole Scherzinger]
So glad you came to visit
Your talent is exquisite
Is it just me or is it getting hot in here?
The AC might be broken
Let's crack a window open
Then hold me close so you can whisper in my ear
Tell me all your dreams and fantasies
Pardon me, I have a tendency to talk a lot
Lay it all on me
You little sexy piece of chocolate
[Chorus: Nicole Scherzinger]
Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride
Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow
The chance to taste the fame if you want
All of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
[Verse 2: Nicole Scherzinger + Todrick Hall]
Wait don't...wait don't go
A little non-committal
Just meet me in the middle
Don't be afraid our little secret's safe in here
You got potential Trevor
It's Todrick
Whatever
Destiny's calling in, your future is so clear
I can almost see your name in lights
What a sight...my mind is spinning like a carousel
Trevor all I need is a little taste of caramel
[Chorus: Nicole Scherzinger]
Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride
Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow
The chance to taste the fame if you want
All of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
[Verse 3: Todrick Hall]
Find myself in the strangest predicament
Her intentions could be innocent
But I don't know if I should go through with this
If I do, I risk saying yes
But what if it's a test?
It's a mess
You can rest assured the fate of my success would be less
But the question is if I should tell her no
Would I blow my big break?
Would it be a mistake?
For God's sake, she gotta know...
She's not my body type
And I know, what's wrong just can't be right
On the one hand you got one life
You should cut yourself some slack
You know once she's had the chocolate then she's never going back
Is she talking a big talk or is this how you play the game?
She says I got star potential, she can't even say my name
How many one-hit-wonders sit and wonder why we never knew of them?
You've never touched a boob in your whole life and she's got two of them
This road is full of choices, tough decisions, rough mistakes
Take the highroad or the easy street, the choice is yours to make
[Chorus: : Nicole Scherzinger + Todrick Hall]
But I don't know if I'm your body type
I'm so close to all those Emerald lights
Won't you stay and lay with me tonight
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow
The chance to taste the fame if you want
All of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride
Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow
The chance to taste the fame if you want
All of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
I've been waiting my whole life to say this
