Check out the lyrics to “HE KNOWS”…
[Intro: Camila Cabello]
This is not a show
[Chorus: Camila Cabello]
I think he knows
When I play with him like that
When I say it to him like that
Have my way with him like that
I think he knows (He knows)
When I play with him like that
When I say it to him like that
That he’s comin’ right back
[Verse 1: Camila Cabello]
She’s a provocateur
Dancefloor connoisseur
Shit week, so Friday for sure (Sure, yeah)
Tell the girls we’re takin’ a detour (‘Tour)
Give him hell, yeah
Give these boys hell, yeah
She does it well, ah-yeah
I do it myself, ah-yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Camila Cabello]
Cigarette, candy necklace on my hips
Butterfly that’s on my wrist
Put your hands on me like this
Major glow, head to toe
PT, she’s glossy
Give him one kiss, just softly
Tease him and get him off me
[Chorus: Camila Cabello, Camila Cabello & Lil Nas X]
I think he knows (This is not a show)
When I play with him like that
When I say it to him like that
Have my way with him like that
I think he knows (This is not a show)
When I play with him like that (Like that)
When I say it to him like that (Like that)
That he’s comin’ right back
[Verse 2: Lil Nas X]
He drippin’ down on my bustier like ice cream while Ashanti playin’ in the AMG
Let it rain on me
He fuckin’ up my headboard, so I’m on my knees like, “Dear Lord, please pray for me” (Uh)
Save the grace for me
Say, boy, what-what you want
Give you that uh-uh-uh, that oh
Brrt, baow, shoot in my mouth
Shoot in my shit like uh, and one
Ah, eh-yeah, eh-yeah (Okay)
On the real, I’ma take his soul (All that)
I’ma take him from his hoes (Okay)
On the real, I think he knows
[Chorus: Camila Cabello, Lil Nas X, Camila Cabello & Lil Nas X]
I think he knows (Yeah)
When I play with him like that (When I play with him like that, oh)
I think he knows (Yeah)
When I say it to him like that
Oh, oh
[Bridge: Camila Cabello, Lil Nas X]
He’s wrapped around my pinky finger (Yeah)
Watchin’ the way I move
More drunk on power than on liquor
And he knows it’s true
[Chorus: Camila Cabello, Lil Nas X, Camila Cabello & Lil Nas X]
(This is not a show)
When I play with him like that
When I play with him like that (Yeah, oh)
(This is not a show)
When I play with him like that (Like that)
Play with him like that
That he’s comin’ right back
[Outro: Lil Nas X, Camila Cabello]
Brr, baow
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baow
(This is not a show)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baow, baow, baow
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baow
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Brr, baow
(This is not a show)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baow
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baow, baow, baow

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
