But is it all just hype, or is there real substance behind the catchy melody? Music critics are generally positive, praising the song’s upbeat energy and Selena’s confident vocals. However, some note a lack of originality, comparing it to the current disco revival trend.
Watch & Read the Lyrics:
Wait. ’til I turn my love on
Wait ’til, wait ‘til
Wait ’til I turn my love on
I’m no cheap thrill
I’m a rollercoaster ride, baby jump on
Come on, come on
Cause baby if you can’t tell–you’re what I wanna love on, ohh
This doesn’t have to be some sort of mathematical equation
Slip off your jeans, slide in the sheets, screaming “yes” in quotations
Clock in, baby get to work
Night shift but with all the perks
Time stamping when you fell in love
Time can’t mess with us
Oooh, if you think about falling, got you covered like garments
Oooh, I deserve an applause for, keeping you up late ’til you can’t see straight,
Just wait, woo!
Wait ’til I turn my love on
Wait ’til, wait ’til
Wait ’til I turn my love on
I’m no cheap thrill
I’m a roller coaster ride, baby jump on
Come on come on
’Cause baby if you can’t tell, you’re what I wanna love on, ohh!
Wait ’til I turn my love on
Wait ’til wait til
Wait ’til I turn my love on
You’ll get your thrill
Just promise you’ll be patient with the outcome
Come on
’Cause baby if you can’t tell, you’re what I wanna love on
Why we conversing over this steak tartare when we could be
Somewhere other than here making out in the back of a car
Or in the back of a bar
Or we could make a memoir, yeah
On the back wall of the last stall in the bathroom at the bazaar
Oooh, if you think about falling, got you covered like garments
Oooh, I deserve an applause for, keeping you up late ’til you can’t see straight,
Just wait, woo!
Wait ’til I turn my love on
Wait ’til, wait ‘til
Wait ’til I turn my love on
I’m no cheap thrill
I’m a roller coaster ride, baby jump on
Come on come on
’Cause baby if you can’t tell, you’re what I wanna love on, ohh!
Wait ’til I turn my love on
Wait ’til, wait ‘til
Wait ’til I turn my love on
You’ll get your thrill
Just promise you’ll be patient with the outcome
Come on
’Cause baby if you can’t tell, you’re what I wanna love on
Wait ’til I
Wait ’til I
Baby if you can’t tell, you’re what I wanna love on, ohh!
