He's got what all the ladies want,
The looks, the clothes, the money.
He's a thriller just to be around,
He's got the moves all down.

All the girls start swarming,
He knows he's got 'em good.
All the girlies want him,
Just like they should.
When he comes into the room,
Feels like the air vibrates. (Uh huh)
Everybody turns to look,
They all look right his way. (Yeah)
He's got the moves, the rep, he's smooth, (Mmm)

So when this guy comes near you, (Hey)
Ya feel th' adrenaline start.

And the feeling last real late. (Uhh!)

He knows he's got 'em good.

The baddest of the bad.

But every night's the best you'll have.
