Far★East Movement ft. Cover Drive-Turn Up The Love
(Chorus)
We are one tonight
And we breathing in the same air
So turn up the love
Turn up the love
We turnin' up the love
(Verse)
Turn it up now
Get it poppin',hop the molly
Dirty bass,We so body body
Too legit, we can't quit the party
Super freaks, no Illuminati
So one two hit the booze
We on youtube, nothing to lose
So let it lose 'cause the sheep don't sleep
(Verse)
Like pop pop pop pop
Don't low to the L O
V E gotta get more
So clap your hands, clap clap your hands
I got nothing but love to give
Turn it up
Turned up you don't hear me no
Here's some love for your stereo
So clap your hands ,clap clap your hands
I got nothing but love to give
(Chorus)
We are one tonight
And we breathing in the same air
So turn up the love
Turn up the love
We turnin' up the love
(Chorus)
We are one tonight
And we breathing in the same air
So turn up the love
Turn up the love
We turnin' up the love
(Verse)
Go ahead now flos your love like a heart of gold
Dirty bass to bake a tussy roll
If you don't low on the floor
I got a crew that will handle that cookie jar
Damn girl,I ain't tryin' to be rude
Spread love like a guestless you plus two
That's what you call a move
(Verse)
Like pop pop pop pop
Don't low to the L O
V E gotta get more
So clap your hands, clap clap your hands
I got nothing but love to give
Turn it up
Turned up you don't hear me no
Here's a love for your stereo
So clap your hands ,clap clap your hands
Like pop pop pop pop

Turn me on like this your song
Dirty bass got love to give

Mad monopoly all night long
Dirty bass got love to give
Yo, let me see that grill from here to here
So much love in the atmosphere
The good times roll with me right here
I got nothing but love to give
(Chorus)
We are one tonight

So turn up the love

We turnin' up the love
