Lyrics to Traction by Rakky Ripper
oh oh
Oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
Do not say no to me
I know that you think of me
You dream of me on every train
you already told everyone
You say you don’t know how to do
I thought that maybe
tonight could be
asking everyone
If you go out, what do I know
you looked at me from behind
I felt the electricity
Another night that ends
And again nothing happens
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
I know you think of me
how i think of you
I can’t even sleep
It’s not too late to go out
you are always thirsty
you never drink from me
Baby, you’re so afraid
but you want to repeat
We are entering the club
I feel the connection
inside me an engine
That always moves everything
gasoline and alcohol
easy preparation
Tell me if you dare to turn it on or not
tell me if you dare
I don’t know what you fear anymore
But in this light you were so hot, you even hurt me
no matter the time
If it’s Tuesday or Friday
Until you turn on I’m not going to stop
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
oh oh oh…
little by little you burn
you know what you’re feeling
will call so many times
To see you come running
I will tell you so many times
I will look so many times
I will kiss so many times
Until I merge my body
that you know that I
We are entering the club
I feel the connection
inside me an engine
That always moves everything
gasoline and alcohol
easy preparation
Tell me if you dare to turn it on or not
oh oh
oh oh
To catch him or not
oh oh
oh oh
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
Not!
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
Do not say no to me
Don’t you feel the tension?
Don’t you feel the pull?
Do not say no to me
