[Intro: Anderson .Paak]
One, two, make you wanna, uh
Yeah, yeah, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay

[Verse 1: Anderson .Paak]
Now have you ever been with a player?
Take you downtown where they treat me like the mayor
Take you to the crib, we can take it upstairs
"What's upstairs?" Shit, I'ma show you later
Don't need a spatula, everything catered, extra flavor
Go 'head, sprinkle some truffle on your mashed potatoes
I'm tryna love, is you gon' love me back?
You only get what you give, ain't you heard of that?

[Pre-Chorus: Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak]
Look here
I don't ask for much
You know what I want
I just want what's fair (Huh)
I'll bring that fire and desire, baby
All you gotta do is meet me halfway there (Uh)

[Chorus: Both, Anderson .Paak & Bruno Mars]
I deserve to be
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly
And you deserve to be seen
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly
Oh, don't let 'em trick you with the jibb talk (Ow)

[Verse 2: Anderson .Paak]
Uh, okay, now Silk Sonic smooth like a mack
Float like a butterfly on every single track
And the only language that I speak, girl, is facts
So once I give this game to you, I can't take it back
Hollerin' at you from a 1977 Monte Carlo, hard act to follow
It's showtime, tryna boo you up like it's the Apollo
Your walk is vicious, let's get down to business
You and me together, ooh, that's somethin' different

[Pre-Chorus: Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak]
Ooh, come on
I don't ask for much
I really don't, girl
I just want what's fair
Ha, look here
I'll bring that fire and desire, baby
All you gotta do is this
All you gotta do is meet me halfway there (Uh)

[Chorus: Both, Anderson .Paak & Bruno Mars]
I deserve to be
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly
And you deserve to be seen
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly
Now for real, I'ma need y'all to understand (Ow)
Let's get it

[Verse 3: Anderson .Paak]
If you don't know what we talkin' 'bout
I'ma have the whole band help me spell it out
Yeah, if you don't know what we talkin' 'bout
Class in session, here's your lesson, help me spell it out
F (F), L (L), Y (Y)
You ain't never seen nobody this fly
It's like we back in school again
Now come on, children, I'm spellin'
F (F), L (L), Y (Y)
You ain't never seen nobody this fly, ow
And I'm gone, uh

[Chorus: Bruno Mars & Anderson. Paak, Bruno Mars]
I deserve to be
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly (Fly)
And you deserve to be seen (You deserve to be seen)
With somebody as fly as me
Somebody this fly (Ow)

[Outro: Anderson. Paak]
Oh, and I'm back
Somebody this fly
Yeah, and I'm lookin' for somebody this fly
I can't help it, I want it all
Silk Sonic, let me get the three-piece and a biscuit
Uh

Silk Sonic

Silk Sonic (not to be confused with Silk City) is an R&B/Funk super-group, consisting of American singer-songwriters Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak.

In 2021, the duo announced their debut album under this banner, titled An Evening With Silk Sonic, which was previewed by a single and guest-hosted by funk pioneer Bootsy Collins.

This album is not the first time these two have worked together. Paak had opened for Bruno on the European leg of his 24K Magic Tour in 2017. It was on this tour that the two started developing what would become Silk Sonic’s debut album.
