[Verse 1]

A certain girl named Nikki, she isn't with me

Says it's 'cause I hold her down

Oh, but Nikki isn't with me, because you see

Nikki likes to fool around

Some guys have a thing for girls who like to *beep* for

Five or six or seven guys

But I looked all around the world, tryin' to find the kind of girl

Who will surrender her life, oh

[Chorus]

All I really ever wanted was (total control), hey

I'll make it worth your while, girl (total control)

Oh, is that too much to ask?

All I really ever wanted was (total control)

I promise that I'll make it worth your while (total control)

[Verse 2]

Since you were so sensitive, the pleasure I can give

Is more than you have known

Oh, but I don't like to compromise, I'm not that kinda guy

I want you for my very own

Oh, I hear the rumor's out, that I've been passin' love about

People say I just don't care

Huh, ask me if you wanna know the kind of girl that gets to go

With me, it's the kind of girl that doesn't like to share

[Chorus]

All I really ever wanted was (total control), hey

I promise that I'll make it worth your while, girl (total control)

Oh, huh, is that too much to ask?

All I really ever wanted was (total control)

I promise that I'll make it worth your while, baby (total control)

[Bridge]

Breakdown!

Help what you got, good God!

(Go baby, go baby, go!) Go 'round, baby, uh

Come on and help me sing, go!

(Go baby, go baby, go!) Woo!

[Chorus]

All I really ever wanted was (total control), hey

I promise that I'll make it worth your while, baby (total control)

Hey baby, is that too much to ask?

Uh, all I really ever wanted was (total control), hey

I promise that I'll make it worth your while, baby (total control)

Hey, good God, help me sing!

All I really ever wanted was (total control), hey

I promise that I'll make it worth your while, baby (total control)

[Outro]

Hey, woo!

(Total control) Huh, hey!

(Total control) Everybody, help me sing

What you want? Hey! (Total control)

Everybody, clap your hands

Say, what you need? Huh (total control)

Hey, that ain't too much to ask

Tell me what you want (total control), hey

Woo! Say what you need? (Total control)

Hit me! Woo! (Total control)
