[Intro]
Drop this, drop this, drop, drop this, this, this, this
Drop this, drop this, drop, drop this track
(Track, track, track, track)
(Track, track, track, track)
(Track, track, track, track, tr-)

[Verse 1]
He’s a stereotype
He’s got the baseball cap
And he’s buildin' the hype
As he’s feeding me this hot track, oh
He’s feeding me this hot track, oh, oh
You see, we share the same God
We’ve got the same love
I never wanna stop
I don’t wanna give him up, nah
I don’t wanna give him up, nah, nah

[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I-I am losing time
As you're feeding me this hot track
I-I-I know what I’ve got on my mind

[Chorus]
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me (for me, for me, for me)

[Verse 2]
Now he’s lovin' me up
With the bassline fat
It’s an aphrodisiac
Just watchin' you like that, oh
Just watchin' you like that, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I-I am losing time
As you're feeding me this hot track
I-I-I know what I’ve got on my mind

[Chorus]
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me (for me, for me, for me)

[Bridge]
Mmh, drop this track
Dr-dr-dr-drop this track
(For me, for me, for me)
(For me, for me, for me)
(For me, for me)
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Ah-ha-ha-ha

[Chorus]
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
All night long, he’s got the beat
Fuck him, he’s a DJ
Keep playing that song, it works for me
Fuck him, he's a DJ

Kesha

Kesha Rose Sebert, whose mononymous stage name was previously spelled Ke$ha, is an American singer-songwriter best known for hits like “Tik Tok” and “Praying.” Her mother, Pebe Sebert is also a songwriter, and the two have worked together on songs like “Learn to Let Go.”

In 2005, at age eighteen, Kesha signed a record deal with Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records. Her first major recording was an uncredited feature on Flo Rida’s 2009 hit “Right ‘Round,” which she recorded after walking into a session between Flo and Dr. Luke. She released her debut album, Animal, the next year, after choosing from hundreds of songs, and the record debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Lead single “Tik Tok” broke the record for the longest time for a female artist’s debut single to top the Billboard Hot 100.

Nine months after Animal dropped, Kesha rereleased it alongside Cannibal, an extended play featuring hits like “We R Who We R,” which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Blow.” In February 2011, Kesha kicked off her Get Sleazy Tour, which travelled through the Americas, Europe, and Australia. During the tour, she began writing for her sophomore album, Warrior, which was released in November 2012. She then embarked on a world tour, and was joined by future “Timber” collaborator Pitbull on the North American leg.
