Hold It Against Me Lyrics
Please forgive me,
If I'm coming on too strong.
But you're winning,
And they're playing my favorite song.
Wanna whisper in your ear.
Say it clear, little question,
Wanna know how you just feel.
If we could escape the crowd somehow,
If I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?
And I need a vacation tonight,
So if I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?
That I'm crazy,
But you know I'm just your type.
I might be a little hazy,
But you just cannot deny...
When we're dancin' on the floor.
I want more, I wanna see it,
So I'm askin' you tonight...
If we could escape the crowd somehow,
If I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?
And I need a vacation tonight,
So if I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?
Would you hold it against me?
Yeah.
Muah.
Aaah.
Uh-huuh.
Owww.
Don't wanna wait,
I want it now. (no-no-no-NOW)
Pop it like a hood
And show me how you work it out.
If I said I want your body now.
Would you hold it against me.
If we could escape the crowd somehow,
If I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?
And I need a vacation tonight,
So if I said I want your body now...
Would you hold it against me?

If I said my heart was beating loud, If we could escape the crowd somehow, If I said I want your body now... Would you hold it against me?
The best part of this song, without a doubt!

I wish Britney would record more songs like this. IMHO, her voice is better suited to dance/trance than dance/hip-hop.
I also believe this song is about a girl who goes out clubbing to escape her daily life and finds a guy she's sexually attracted too and wants to know if the guy she wants would think less of her if she said she wanted a one-night-stand up-front. Uncertainty concerning past morals vs. modern trends.
No shit you fucking ignorant Moaist Pig!
No shit you fucking ignorant Moaist Pig!

One thing puzzles me about the title line in the chorus. Does she mean "would you hold it against me" as in:
- the guy thinking less of her if they had a one night stand
or
- the guy literally holding his body against hers...?
I'm guessing the former, but still clarification would be great!
Isn't it obvious it's about a one night stand. Ick.

Both of those meanings are intended. Double meanings are often used to hide a more obscene meaning inside a clean one.

these lyrics are from the demo. here are the final lyrics:
Hey, over there Please forgive me If I'm coming on too strong Hate to stare But you're winning And they're playing my favorite song
So come here A little closer Wanna whisper in your ear Make it clear Little question Wanna know just how you feel
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
Hey, you might think That I'm crazy But I think you're just my type I might be little hazy But you just cannot deny
There's a spark in between us When we're dancin on the floor I want more, I wanna see it So I'm askin' you tonight
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight So if I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
If I said I want your body Would you hold it against me?
Give me something good Don't wanna wait I want it now Pop it like a hood Show me how you work it out
If I said my heart was beating loud... If I said I want your body now... Would you hold it against me?
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight So if I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
If I said I want your body Would you hold it against me?

"So come near, a little closer"

"pop it like a hood" my friend said is she talking about her cherry? i said yes, but if im wrong i would like to know
How many can get into bars and are still virgins? Good luck on that quest;) The song is by Britney Spears; I can't imagine being turned on by anything she sings...

When she says "Hold it Against Me", it means two things; It's referring to a physical contact, but it's also referring to when someone "holds a bad thing against you."

This is one of my favorite songs. I have always thought she said "crowds of hell" instead of "crowd somehow" since 2011 until I saw the lyrics for the first time yesterday.
