Shimmer - Meghan Trainor
Might mess around and live up to my full potential
Might love myself so hard they'll worry 'bout my mental
My skin is plastic and my tears are made of metal
I put to use what I learned
Make 'em look when I serve
'Cause I was taught by the divas
Queens and ballerinas
You can love who you are tonight
So bring the fans and the glitter
Your confidence is killer
Baby, flaunt that in the light
I don't sweat (Sweat)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna get them hot
Until they shiver (Shiver, shiver)
I don't sweat (Sweat)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna make them mad
Let them get bitter (Bitter, bitter)
I said keep your hands up and drop it low
Look alive, girl, we ain't goin' home
You too fine and it's time you know
I know you know
Let's see how you get dirty
Flip 'em off with a curtsy
I put to use what I learned
Make 'em look when I serve
'Cause I was taught by the divas
Queens and ballerinas
You can love who you are tonight
So bring the fans and the glitter
Your confidence is killer
Baby, flaunt that in the light
I don't sweat (Sweat)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna get them hot
Until they shiver (Shiver, shiver)
I don't sweat (Sweat)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna make them mad
Let them get bitter (Bitter, bitter)
Mmm, make 'em mad, bitch
Just do it like this, break your back
Heels six-inch, they could never do that
Kinda feels good just to make them mad
Let them, let them get bitter
Do it like this, break your back
Heels six-inch, they could never do that
Kinda feels good just to make them mad
Let them, let them get bitter
Said I was taught by the divas
Queens and ballerinas
You can love who you are tonight (Tonight)
So bring the fans and the glitter
Your confidence is killer
Baby, flaunt that in the light
I don't sweat (Sweat)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna get them hot
Until they shiver (Shiver, shiver, let's go)
I don't sweat (Sweat, hey)
Nah, I shimmer (Shimmer)
I wanna make them mad
Let them get bitter (Bitter, bitter)
Just do it like this, break your back
Heels six-inch, they could never do that
Kinda feels good just to make them mad
Let them, let them get bitter
Do it like this, break your back
Heels six-inch, they could never do that
Kinda feels good just to make them mad
Let them, let them get bitter.
