I can't control the way I'm movin my hips
Bet you never ever seen it like this
I'm a monster on the floor, I can't quit
No no it's automatic, it's automatic

It's automatic I'm a run away train
And it's likely that I tear up this place
When I go I go hard
I'mma show you bizarre tonight, tonight (ni-i-ight)

It's automatic my condition's unknown
There's no remedy and no antidote
It's just the way that I am
Nicki Nicki so bad tonight tonight (ni-i-ight)

I can't control the way I'm movin' my hips
Bet you never ever seen it like this
I'm a monster on the floor can't quit
No no it's automatic, it's automatic
It's automatic, it's automatic

It's automatic some might call it insane
I assure I'll be stuck in your brain
You'll be falling for me boy, yeah
Just like a domino tonight tonight (ni-i-ight)

It's automatic when I'm rockin' the beat
Systematically I'm droppin' your heat
It's just the way that I am
Nicki Nicki so bad tonight tonight (night)

I can't control the way I'm movin' my hips
Bet you never ever seen it like this
I'm monster on the floor get with
No no it's automatic, it's automatic
It's automatic

Press rewind,
p-p-press rewind
It's automatic
I-I'm Einstein
I'm lookin' for that Einstein
Wales, London, Ireland
Scotland I can idle in
South Africa and Brazil
Shut the club down,
bring the bill
Ri-ri-ri-ri-ring the bill
Br-bri-bri-bri-bring the bill
Bri-bri-bring the bill
Shut the club down
Bring the bill

I can't control the way I'm movin' my hips
Bet you never ever seen it like this
I'm a monster on the floor get with
No no it's automatic, it's automatic, it's automatic
