You would you could have brought me this sweaty football jersey. I I would have been fine with this. So, we cannot obviously talk dirty. Right.

Jason Derulo

Yes, so I had to change my lyrics today, you know, for talk dirty, you know. I was thinking a little more talk nerdy to me. I like that. And then uh for the other side, when I say you're going all the way, I said, "We're going home today." you know when you were a kid, and like those things just went. Whoosh! You had no idea.
