Baby, can't you see, I'm calling
A guy like you should wear a warning
It's dangerous, I'm falling
There's no escape, I can't wait
I need a hit ① , baby give me it
You're dangerous, I'm moving it in ②
Too high, can't calm down
Losing my head, spinning ‘round and ‘round ③
Do you feel me now
With the taste of your lips, I'm on a ride ④
You're toxic, I'm slipping under
With the taste of your poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic
It's getting late to give you up
I took a sip from the devil's cup
Slowly it's taking over me ⑤
Too high, can't calm down
It's in the air and it's all around
Can you feel me now
With the taste of your lips, I'm on a ride
Your toxic tongue slipping mine
With the taste of the poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic
Don't you know that you're toxic
With the taste of your lips, I'm on a ride
Your toxic tongue slipping mine
With the taste of the poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
With the taste of your lips, I'm on a ride
Your toxic tongue slipping mine
With the taste of the poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
Intoxicated now
With your loving now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
Intoxicated now
With your loving now
I think I'm ready now
亲爱的,难道你不知道,我在呼唤你
你这样的人,应该戴上警示牌
太危险了,我要坠入爱河
我无路可退,我不想空等
我需要你,宝贝给我吧
你是个危险情人,我深深陷入爱情
内心澎湃,无法平静
失去理智,情绪起伏不定
你能感觉到我吗
你唇间的味道,让我心灵驰骋
你是致命的毒,我深陷其中
你唇间的天堂之毒
我对你痴迷不已
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
但我却深爱着你
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
想要放弃你,已经太迟
我已啜饮了恶魔的毒杯
渐渐地,你的毒侵入我的身体
我内心澎湃,无法平静
那毒飘浮在空中,到处都是
你能感觉到我吗
你唇间的味道,让我心灵驰骋
你的毒舌滑过我的舌尖
我尝到天堂之毒
我对你痴迷不已
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
但我却深爱着你
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
你唇间的味道,让我心灵驰骋
你的毒舌滑过我的舌尖
我尝到天堂之毒
我对你痴迷不已
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
你唇间的味道,让我心灵驰骋
你的毒舌滑过我的舌尖
我尝到天堂之毒
我对你痴迷不已
难道你不知道,你是致命的毒
你让我如痴如醉
拥有你的爱
我想我准备好了
我想我准备好了
你让我如痴如醉
拥有你的爱
我想我准备好了
