[Intro]
All rise
Blue
Too close

[Chorus]
Baby, when we're grinding
I get so excited
Ooh, how I like it
I try but I can't fight it
Oh, your dancing real close
Plus it's real real slow
You're making it hard for me

[Verse 1: Lee]
Oh, the slow songs you requested
You're dancing like you're naked
Oh, it's almost like we're sexing (oh yeah)
Yeah boo, I like it
No, I can't deny it
But I know you can tell I'm excited, oh girl

[Pre-Chorus: Anthony (w/ girl)]
(Step back you're dancing kind of close
I feel a little pull coming through
On you)
Now, girl, I know you felt it
Before you know I can't help it
You know what I wanna do

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Lee]
Baby girl's dancing so close; ain't a good idea
Cause I'ma want you now and here
The way that you shake it on me
Makes me want you so bad sexually (ooh, girl)

[Pre-Chorus: Duncan & Simon (w/ girl)]
(Step back you're dancing kind of close
I feel a little pull coming through
On you)
Now, girl, I know you felt it
Before you know I can't help it
You know what I wanna do

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[Blue] I love when you shake it like that, hah, hah, hah
[Girl] I see that you like it like that, hah, hah, hah
[Blue] I love when you shake it like that, hah, hah, hah
[Girl] I see that you like it like that, hah, hah, hah

[Chorus x3]

Blue are an English boy band made up of members Antony Costa, Duncan James, Lee Ryan and Simon Webbe.

The band burst onto the music scene in 2001 with their debut single “All Rise”. This was then followed by further hits “Too Close”, “If You Come Back” and “Fly By II”. Debut album All Rise, released between the latter two songs, debuted at number 1 in the UK.

Despite media backlash following Ryan’s infamous outburst regarding media reactions to the September 11 attacks, Blue’s chart success continued with follow-up albums One Love (2002) and Guilty (2003), before they eventually called it a day in 2005.
