Lyrics
Slave to the Rhythm
(Verse 1)
She sits at the back of the room
Sippin' on 80 proof
The Natives are restless, wolves are howlin' at the moon
She has her feline friend
She calls her "innocence"
She sits there strokin' her, strokin' her
Drivin' me wild
(Chorus 1)
I've seen you before, dancin' alone
You're just a slave to the rhythm out on the floor
You cut like a knife, you're the dangerous type
I'll be a slave to your rhythm, I'll be your slave
She said,"Blondes do it better, Let's spend the night together,
Oh, Sugar, you're blowin' my mind
Blondes are better lovers, take me under the covers
We're gonna do this all night
(Chorus 2)
With your rhythm
(I'm just a slave)
With your rhythm
(I'm just a slave)
(Verse 2)
A needle and spoon
I'm comin' to soon
My heart beatin' fast, let's get back to my room
Loving you is suicide
You cut me just like a knife
I should known better you're blowin' my,
Blowin' my mind
(Chorus 1)
I've seen you before, dancin' alone
You're just a slave to the rhythm out on the floor
A face in the crowd, shake to the sound
I'll be a slave to your rhythm, I'll be your slave
She said,"Blondes do it better, Let's spend the night together,
Oh, Sugar, you're blowin' my mind
Blondes do it better, the three of us together
You can love us two at a time
(Bridge 1)
Just a taste and I've fallen
My senses overload, tell me can you handle the pain?
(Bridge 2)
Yeah, you got me down on my knees, I'm beggin you, beggin' you, beggin' you baby
Yeah you got me down on my kness beggin you'
(Chorus 1)
I've seen you before, dancin' alone
You're just a slave to the rhythm out on the floor
You cut like a knife, you're the dangerous type
I'll be a slave to your rhythm, I'll be your slave
(Outro Chorus 2)
Yeah, I'll be your slvae to your rhythm
Your rhythm (I'm just a slave)
Your rhythm (I'm just a slave)
