[Intro]
Put your hands together!

[Verse 1]
Everybody look at me, me
I walk in the door, you start screaming
Come on, everybody, what you here for?
Move your body around like a nympho
Everybody get your necks to crack around
All you crazy people, come on, jump around
I wanna see you all on your knees, knees
You either wanna be with me, or be me
Come on, now

[Chorus]
Maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, wish you never ever met her at all

[Verse 2]
And when she walks, she walks with passion
When she talks, she talks like she can handle it
When she asks for somethin', boy, she means it
Even if you never ever seen it
Everybody get your necks to crack around
All you crazy people, come on, jump around
You doin' anything to keep her by your side
Because, she said she love you, love you long time (long time!)
Come on, now

[Chorus]
Maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, wish you never ever met her at all

[Break 1]
Let's get crazy!
Woo! Woo!
Yeah...
Woo! Woo! Woo!
Yeah...
Woo! Woo! Woo!
Yeah...
Sing with me! Woo! Woo! Woo!
Yeah...

[Chorus]
Maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater, make you work hard
Make you spend hard, make you want all of her love
She's a maneater, make you buy cars
Make you cut cards, wish you never ever met her at all

[Break 2]
My name's Nelly Furtado
Let's jump!

[Bridge]
She's a maneater, a maneater
I've been around the world, I ain't never seen a girl like this
She's a maneater, a maneater
I've been around the world, I ain't never seen a girl like this
She's a maneater, a maneater
I've been around the world, I ain't never seen a girl like this
She's a maneater, a maneater
I've been around the world, I ain't never seen a girl like this
She's a maneater, a maneater
I've been around the world, I ain't never seen a girl like this, like this, like this, like this
