She's rich, she's powerful   She doesn't want to be a man   (Do, do, do, do, do)   She takes me as she finds me   Like only a woman can, yeah, ah      She's tough, but vulnerable   I'd say adoring   I'd like to say we're perfect   But you know that would be boring      Clap your hands, pretty baby clap your hands   It's gonna take a little   (Oh)   Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   Do, do, do, do, do, persuasion   Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   You know what I mean now      Adore that shape   I really really don't know why   But as long as I live   I just can't help but try      Please don't say you love me   You saw us in a crystal   Every time you do that   I'm reaching for my pistol      Clap your hands, pretty baby clap your hands   It's gonna take a little   (Oh)   Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   Do, do, do, do, do, persuasion   Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   You know what I mean now      Less about yesterday, more about forever   Keep it nice and simple, try not to be clever   It's nice to be right but on this occasion   Less about perhaps, more about persuasion!      Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   Do, do, do, do, do, persuasion   Oh, oh, oh, persuasion   You know what I mean now
