"Lyric Raid" : "One Night Stand" by Jazmine Sullivan



One night stands are called "one night stands" for a reason, but what happens when you get hooked? Well, that's when it all goes downhill. Here are the lyrics to Jazmine Sullivan's "One Night Stand" from her 2008 "Fearless" album.

"Usually I'm the one that's in control.
I meet em', freak em', leave em',
Move on to the next man,
He ain't my man.

I must admit I like to have some fun.
I be in love for like a minute then I'm on the run.
(on the run, on the run for like a minute then I'm on the run)
Until the day that he caught my eyes,
I knew I didn't wanna play him like them other guys.
(other guys, other guys, didn't wanna play him like them other guys)

You are my kryptonite,
You take my powers away,
And if I spend the night,
You'll probably drive me insane.
(one night stand, one night stand, he was suppose to be a one night stand)
You are my kryptonite,
You take my powers away,
And if I spend the night you'll probably drive me insane,
(one night stand, one night stand he was suppose to be a one night stand)

...

So I decided I would try it,
Because I couldn't fight it.
I would do it so good I'd have him making me pancakes in the morning,
Making me pancakes in the morning.
And so I put it down, I mean I went to town.
He pulled the switch-around,
And it was me making pancakes in the morning,
Me making pancakes in the morning..."
