Banging in the front row
Waiting for the big show
All these guys is hunting on me
Not a one gon' even make my heart stop

Then you came on
And you're strutting like a rude boy
I felt my body starting to freeze
Who'da thought that you could make my eyes pop?

I am the one without a thought of hesitating
You just better be there when I come
'Cause I ain't waiting
You can tell by the look in my eyes
I can't hold on, got me mesmerized

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I can give you something
Cause right now you got control of me
I am paralyzed, so paralyzed
Yeah I must be hypnotized
I can't move left or right
Oh baby, I'm paralyzed
So paralyzed

Suddenly you caught me
And you came in through the back door
You started fronting
And hitting on me
The conversation got me dirty
And you took a shot

I should have worn
A better suit of armor
I'm not the brave one I used to be
But do you give a damn
If I'm ready or not?

I am the one without a thought of hesitating
You just better be there when I come
'Cause I ain't waiting
You can tell by the look in my eyes
I can't hold on, got me mesmerized

Tell me what you did
How'd you do it?
I'm just standing here
How did I get frozen
In this atmosphere?
Feeling so paralyzed
I said I must be hypnotized
I can't move left or right
Oh baby, I'm paralyzed
So paralyzed

Well I can't do anything
Without you by my side
Oh babe my hands are tied
So tight like I've been crucified
Begadebedum – hypnotized
Skipadebedum – mesmerized
Oh baby, I am feeling, I am feeling paralyzed

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I can give you something
Cause right now you got control of me
I am paralyzed, so paralyzed
Tell me what you did
How'd you do it?
I'm just standing here
How did I get frozen
In this atmosphere?
Feeling so paralyzed
So paralyzed

You're my right type of guy
I won't let you pass me by
(I'm so paralyzed)

Sticky fingers, sticky feet
Drop that honey all over me
(Well I'm so paralyzed)
