Wannabe Lyrics

Yo, I'll tell you what I want
What I really really want
So tell me what you want
What you really really want

I'll tell you what I want
What I really really want
So tell me what you want
What you really really want

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna
I wanna, I wanna really
Really really wanna zig a zig ha

If you want my future
Forget my past
If you wanna get with me better
Make it fast
Now don't go wasting my precious time
Get your act together we could be just fine

I'll tell you what I want
What I really really want
So tell me what you want
What you really really want
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna
I wanna, I wanna really
Really really wanna zig a zig ha
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta get with my friends
Make it last forever
Friendship never ends

If you wanna be my lover
You have got to give
Taking is too easy
But that's the way it is

What do you think about that
Now you know how I feel
Say you can handle my love
Are you for real
I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye

Yo I'll tell you what I want
What I really really want
So tell me what you want
What you really really want

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna
I wanna, I wanna really
Really really wanna zig a zig ha
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta get with my friends
Make it last forever
Friendship never ends

If you wanna be my lover
You have got to give
Taking is too easy
But that's the way it is

So here's a story from A to Z
You wanna get with me
You gotta listen carefully
We got M in the place
Who likes it in your face

We got G like MC who likes it on an
Easy V doesn't come for free
She's a real lady
And as for me... ah you'll see
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around

If you wanna be my lover
You gotta get with my friends
Make it last forever
Friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover
You have got to give
Taking is too easy
But that's the way it is

If you wanna be my lover
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta
Slam, slam, slam, slam

Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down zig a zig ha

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
