Paloma Rumba

Pa-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

Pa-la-la-la-la-la

Same old place, familiar faces

Copy paste my days

(Put on a smile and go on)

One last round of kissing the ground

And then I'll be gone for good

Paloma Rumba, let's go

Delete my number burn the phone

Take my chance to finally dance

Away from all the anger

Too much sweat and tears and regrets

'Cause I don't wanna talk about numbers all day long

Paloma Rumba, let's go

Rock this, rock this

Delete my number burn the phone

Rock this, rock this

I'm not a machine just stuck on a wage

In a rage, as a cage with a badge, oh no

Can't take no more, takе no more

I'm done for sure, yеah (Put on a smile and go on)

I'm not a robot just playing the part

And I'm losing my heart I'm falling apart

So watch me go steal the show

Like a pro, yeah

This meeting could have been an email

Free coffee won't keep me here man

Can't do this anymore

Already at the door

Paloma Rumba, let's go

Rock this, rock this

Delete my number burn the phone

Rock this, rock thiѕ

You ole-ole-ole-ole-fa, Paloma Rumba

Are you ready?

Pa-la-la-la-la (Rock this)

La-la-la-la-la (Rock this)

Pa-la-la-la-la-la

Go, one more time
