Handle It
Seductive Rhythms: Unveiling Desire in Jessica Mauboy's 'Handle It'
Lyrics
He said he couldn't wait to get me alone
Anticipation of being alone, expressing eagerness.
I got him caught up, now he's in my song
Her actions have entangled him, and now he's part of her story or song.
His word plays nice but I shouldn't assume
His words are charming, but she's cautious not to assume too much.
Let's see what he can do, show me something brand new
Encouraging him to showcase something new and impressive.
I can tell that he thinks I'm the truth
He believes she is genuine or authentic.
Gettin' into him start to find me a groove
Getting comfortable with him, finding her rhythm.
He's claiming he can make me sing out of tune
He claims he can disrupt her harmony or stability.
Make me blow out a fuse, really tryin' to get loose
Attempting to make her lose control or be unrestrained.
Tell me if I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Asking if he can handle her intensity or passion.
If I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Reiteration of questioning his ability to handle her.
Uh huh could you handle it
Confirmation or emphasis on the query about handling it.
Uh huh could you handle it
Reiteration of seeking assurance regarding his capability to handle her.
I know that liquor got you talkin' real sick
Alcohol might influence him to speak recklessly.
But Imma pull your card and see if you're bluffin'
Checking if he's truthful or bluffing.
Claimin' you can make me sing out of tune
Repeating the claim of disrupting her harmony.
Make me blow out a fuse, really tryin' to get loose
Continued efforts to make her lose control.
Tell me if I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Repeating the question about handling her intensity.
If I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Reiteration of questioning his capability to handle her.
Uh huh could you handle it
Emphasizing the query regarding handling it.
Uh huh could you handle it
Reiteration of seeking assurance about his capability to handle her.
I got him sweatin' hard now he's losing his cool
He's physically affected, losing composure.
Mesmerised by my curves and the way that I move
His fascination with her body and movements.
His body's sayin' things but I shouldn't assume
His body language suggests attraction, but she remains cautious.
Let's see what he can do, show me something brand new
Encouraging him to display something new again.
Check my silhouette I know you're diggin' the view
Highlighting the appeal of her silhouette.
Especially when I throw it back at you
Specifically during certain movements, she captures his attention.
He's claiming he can make me sing out of tune
Repeating the claim of disrupting her harmony.
Make me blow out a fuse, really tryin' to get loose
Continued efforts to make her lose control.
Tell me if I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Reiterating the question about handling her intensity.
If I put it on ya baby could you handle it
Reiteration of questioning his capability to handle her.
Uh huh could you handle it
Emphasizing the query regarding handling it.
Uh huh could you handle it
Reiteration of seeking assurance about his capability to handle her.
You should know by now I ain't the one to play with
Warning that she's not one to be toyed with or taken lightly.
You see how I get down and the way I handle it
Highlighting her assertiveness and how she manages situations.
If I put it on ya boy you know you're gonna trip
If she engages with him intimately, he might struggle to handle it.
You say you can handle it, then handle it
Despite his claims of handling it, she challenges him to prove it.
