Let´s go to the park
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars
Maybe we´ll go too far
We just don´t care
We just don´t care
We just don´t care

You know I love you when you loving me
Sometimes it´s better when it´s publicly
I´m not ashamed I don´t care who sees
Just hugging & kissing our love exhibition all

We rendezvous out on the fire escape
I like to set up an alarm today
The love emergency don´t make me wait
Just follow I´ll lead you
I urgently need you

Let´s go to the park
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars
Maybe we´ll go too far
We just don´t care
We just don´t care
We just don´t

Let´s make love, let´s go somewhere they might discover us
Let´s get lost in lies
We just don´t care
We just don´t care
We just don´t care

I see you closing down the restaurant
Let´s sneak and do it when your boss is gone
Everybody´s leaving we´ll have some fun
Or maybe it´s wrong but you turn me on
Ooh, we´ll take a visit to your Mama´s house
Creep to the bedroom while your Mama´s out
Maybe she will hear it when we scream and shout
And we will keep it rocking until she comes knocking

Let´s go to the park
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars
Maybe we´ll go too far
We just don´t care
We just don´t care
We just don´t

Let´s make love, let's go somewhere they might discover us
Let´s get lost in lies
We just don´t care
We just don´t care
We just don´t care

If we keep up on this fooling around
We'll be the talk of the town
I´ll tell the world I´m in love any time
Let´s open up the blinds cause we really don´t mind

Ooh I don't care about the priority
Let´s break the rules and ignore society
Maybe our neighbor like to spy too
So what if they watch when we do what we do

Oh, let´s go to the park
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don´t

Let´s make love, let´s go somewhere they might discover us
