Somebody Lyrics by Latto

(Ah) I really need somebody (Body)
Tell me you that somebody (Body)
I don’t care about your bodies (Bodies)
Uh, love the way you touch my body (Body)
From the back, get bodied (Bodied)
I ain’t never tell nobody
All I want is you, boy, all I want is you
All I need is you, boy, all I need is you (You)
It’s just me and you, boy, it’s just me and you
I really need somebody
Tell me you that somebody

Baby, tell me what you in the mood for (Huh?)
Type shit, we should get a room for (Yeah)
Got me in the mirror gettin’ cute for it (Mm)
Lie back, let me show you what I do for it (Ah)
Pull out the valet in a new toy (Skrrt)
Blow it back and now we kissin’ in the food court (Mwah)
You the type that I would’ve skipped school for (Yeah)
This year I got you on my mood board
I want to live in your skin (Skin)
When I jump out, you jump in (In)
How I fit all this in my pants? (Pants)
Same way I fit you in my plans
Love the fact that we just friends
Man, I hate that we just friends
Round two, he want revenge
Over and over again and again, can you?

(Ah) I really need somebody (Body)
Tell me you that somebody (Body)
I don’t care about your bodies
Uh, love the way you touch my body (Body)
From the back, get bodied (Bodied)
I ain’t never tell nobody
All I want is you, boy, all I want is you
All I need is you, boy, all I need is you (You)
It’s just me and you, boy, it’s just me and you
I really need somebody
Tell me you that somebody

Damn, sheesh
You make it so hard to be P
Got me wearin’ my heart on my sleeve
I be missin’ you soon as you leave
Damn, really missin’ you soon as you leave
Double text and that really ain’t me
Double tap on that pic and delete
I got him bringin’ sand to the beach
He got me goin’ up on the yacht
I’m like, “Keep goin’, baby, don’t stop”
Only one got the key to this box
Kept the body like he seen the opp
I get messy, you might need a mop
Just like Messi, we kick it a lot
Why she textin’? I’m climbin’ on top (Give it to me, baby)

Got me screamin’ out your first name
Pickin’ up on the first ring
Come do me the worst way (Body, give it to me, baby)
Don’t care what no bird say
You was always first place
Got me callin’ off work today, come (Give it to me, baby)

(Ah) I really need somebody (Body)
Tell me you that somebody (Body)
I don’t care about your bodies (I don’t care about your bodies)
Uh, love the way you touch my body (Body)
From the back, get bodied (Bodied)
I ain’t never tell nobody (I ain’t never tell)
All I want is you, boy, all I want is you
All I need is you, boy, all I need is you (You)
It’s just me and you, boy, it’s just me and you
I really need somebody
Tell me you that somebody (That somebody)

Give it to me, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Give it to me, baby
