Verse 1
What is your name, baby?
How - you - you call - baby
Since I saw you I knew you were for me
Tell your friends that we are ready
We continue this at the after party
Since I saw you I knew you were for me
Tell your friends that we are ready
This we will continue at the after party
Chorus 1
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
This can be translated as 'how she wiggles', 'how she shakes it' aka 'how she dances'
Move that poom-poom, girl
She's a killer, when she dances she wants the whole world to see her
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
Move that poom-poom, girl
She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dancefloor, come do whatever
Verse 2
I saw that you're alone, accompany me
The night is ours, you know it
What desire you give-give-give me
Of grinding you babe that ram-pam-pam
That criminal, how she moves it is a crime
I have to arrest you because I start and I don't stop
You have criminality, but I give you fatality
Live the movie floating in my gravity
Daddy sets the rules, you have to obey
Babe, there's no pause, what are you going to do?
Move it, move it, move it back
Move it, move it, front and back
Chorus 2
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
Move that poom-poom, girl
She's a killer, when she dances she wants the whole world to see her
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
Move that poom-poom, girl
She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dancefloor, come do whatever
Verse 3
You got fire and I got the candle
Call 911, the floor is burning
You turn me on when that skirt models for me
Me daña usually means it hurts but it can also mean it turns me on
Mommy, you're sick, but your show doesn't cancel
They call you the queen of the party
That body has so much flow
Much - flow - has - that - body
We are two bandits between rumba and romance
And DJ play it another time so she can dance
Move it, move it, move it back
Move it, move it, front and back
Chorus 3
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
Move that poom-poom, girl
She's a killer, when she dances she wants the whole world to see her
Calmly, I want to see how she dances
Move that poom-poom, girl
She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dancefloor, come do whatever
