Rihanna - Rated R Lyrics
Rihanna - Mad House Lyrics
ladies and gentlemen
to those among you
who are easily frightened
we suggest you turn away now
Rihanna - Wait Your Turn Lyrics
It's just the way
The game is played
It's best if you just
Wait your turn
Rihanna - Hard Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Ah yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah (Ah yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah, yeah
Rihanna - Stupid In Love Lyrics
Stupid in love
Oh
Stupid in love
1st verse:
Rihanna - Russian Roulette Lyrics
Take a breath, take it deep
"Calm yourself," he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take the gun, and count to three
Rihanna - Fire Bomb Lyrics
Yeahh Ohhh
Gunfire left a hole in the tank, losing gasoline
Fire is on my trail and he's after me
Rihanna - Rude Boy Lyrics
[Chorus]
Come here, rude boy, boy; can you get it up?
Come here rude boy, boy; is you big enough?
Take it, take it baby, baby
Rihanna - Photographs Lyrics
Here's a little story I've gotta tell
'Bout this boy I know so well
Back in the day was cool and all
Fell in love, I fell in love
Rihanna - G4L Lyrics
I lick the gun
When Im done
Cause I know
That revenge is sweet
Rihanna - Te Amo Lyrics
"Te amo, te amo," she says to me
I hear the pain in her voice
Then we danced underneath the candelabra, she takes the lead
That's when I saw it in her eyes, it's over
Rihanna - Cold Case Love Lyrics
1st Verse:
On my roof
Dark and I'm burning a rope
I don't need proof
Rihanna - The Last Song Lyrics
Here we are
midair off of the cliff
staring down at the end again
but then again maybe we're finally
