VERSE 1

I'm a desperado underneath your window. I see your silhouette. Are you my Juliet? I feel a mad connection with your body. Shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon. I wanna be your lover, your only latin lover. We'll go around the world in a day. Don't say no, no. Shake it my way, oh shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon.

I am an outlaw of the American frontier, lusting after you as I stare at you through a hole in your wall. Do you love me enough to kill yourself? I know our physical beings are crazily linked. Wiggle your buttocks. I would like to be the only Hispanic person with whom you copulate. We will circumnavigate the globe within 24 hours. You may not refuse. Wiggle your buttocks.

CHORUS

Hola Amiga, hola Amiga. You're my temple of desire. We'll go around the world in a day. Don't say no, no. Shake it my way, oh shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon.

Hi, friend. I open your body every week, step inside and worship temptation. We will circumnavigate the globe within 24 hours. You may not refuse. Wiggle your buttocks.

VERSE 2

You're a Mata Hari. I wanna know your story. In the Sahara sun I wanna be the one that's gonna come and take you, make you shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon. Up in the Himalayas, c'mon I wanna lay ya. We'll go around the world in a day. Don't say no, no. Shake it my way, oh shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon, shake your bon-bon.

You are a dead Dutch dancer whose life I would like to learn about. Amidst the blistering desert heat, I would care to kidnap you and force you to wiggle your buttocks. I want to fornicate with you on the world's highest mountain range, in Asia. We will circumnavigate the globe within 24 hours. You may not refuse. Wiggle your buttocks.

(CHORUS)
