🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • That's that me, espresso
  • Move it up, down, left, right, oh
  • Switch it up like Nintendo
  • Say you can't sleep, baby, I know

Echo the hook

  • That morning coffee, brewed it for ya
  • One touch and I brand newed it for ya
  • Now he's thinkin' 'bout me every night, oh
  • Is it that sweet? I guess so
