I Wanna Be Taken Lyrics

Walking solo, I just can't believe it
Got myself some drugs; you got yourself a boy
I'm down on my knees, the rain soaks my pants
Out on the town, this is my big chance

I wanna be taken x4

A girl just rising; got me a going
Excessive years, laid to my passion
I'm staring at you; offer you the night
I'm cooking girl; you know what it's like

I wanna be taken x 7...now!

I want you to fright me and watch me calm
I got a good feeling; you know where I'm coming from
I kissed your cheek, reminded my time
You got it now; it'll work out fine

I wanna be taken x 7...now!
[chorus x 4]...now!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
