## Lyrics

[Hook: Bilal]

You shine like the lights of Las Vegas

You feel way beyond outrageous

You're confidence and appeal, so sexual

How dare you? How dare you? How dare you?

How dare you come do me like that that

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]

I got my eyes on like the fire zone

Let's be bygones

Won't you come and be a line in one of my songs?

Maybe a whole verse, baby the whole Earth’s my home

So let me show you around the crib

Tell you what I do, and show you what I did

Flow is on the stove, I'm cooking for the kids

Wrist is in the freezer, heart is in the fridge

But we can warm it up, plug the Foreman up

Open the oven door, turn the saunas up

Stretch the Benz out, if it ain't long enough

Get lost in the feeling, be no longer us

Hop up out the coupe, hop up on the bus

Give you 'get to the backs', code name for Rosa's sons

We're in a better place, give us condolences

This like a player's mate, and like a coma love

[Hook: Bilal]

You shine like the lights of Las Vegas

You feel way beyond outrageous

You're confidence and appeal, so sexual

How dare you? How dare you? How dare you?

How dare you come do me like that that

[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]

And I hope it's all up to your standards

Cause babies really need to be pampered

I'm behind these tents like a camper

Cause you're out there shining like chandler

Like a chandelier standing near in your radiance

I think we all need some shadiness

Or some vision care, oh no, you didn't dare

While I sitting here like Huey in his wicker chair

You know that isn't fair, how you just entered here

Getting their hopes up, that they can interfere

You're so insincere, you know I got you

Have you looked in the mirror? You know that's not cool

[Hook: Bilal]

You shine like the lights of Las Vegas

You feel way beyond outrageous

You're confidence and appeal, so sexual

How dare you? How dare you? How dare you?

How dare you come do me like that that

[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]

Let's have a cease fire, be some peace tryers

Let's negotiate, because my cheeks tired

From smiling all day

Emotions need a motrin, a tylenol break

I know you see my strategy, if flattery's a battery

Then I'm a rabbit with a pack of 'D's in back of me

Pause on all levels, everybody settle

I know it sounded weird, I'm just trying to impress you

And step forward with my best two

If all that fails, hope it’s swag to the rescue

I said swag, and I'm sorry

Don't mean to offend your sensibilities I meant dress smartly

Just trying to get you out this party

Can you dig that? Ologist-Archae

Please be the Ferrari to my car key

And I'mma hold my baby down like a car seat

[Bridge: Bilal]

You know what you're doing to me

You got that firepower, baby

I just can't get enough

No, I can't get enough

[Hook: Bilal]

You shine like the lights of Las Vegas

You feel way beyond outrageous

You're confidence and appeal, so sexual

How dare you? How dare you? How dare you?

How dare you come do me like that that
