[B:] It’s whippin’my hair, it’s pullin’ my waist
[B&M:] To hell with stares
[B:] The sweat is drippin’ all over my face
[B&M:] No one’s there
[B:] I’m the only one dancin’ up in this place
[B&M:] Tonight I’m here
[B:] Feel the beat of the drum, gotta keep it that bass
[B:] I’m up against the speaker, tryin’ to take on the music
[B:] It’s like a competition, me against the beat
[B:] I wanna get in the zone, I wanna get in the zone
[B:] If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
[B:] Tryin’ to hit it, you could die
[B:] In a minute I’m a take a you on, I’m a take a you on
Hey, hey, hey

[B&M:] So how would you like a friendly competition
[B&M:] Let’s take on the song
[B&M:] It’s you and me baby, we’re the music
[B&M:] Time to party all night long
[B&M:] We’re almost there
[B:] I’m feelin’ it bad and I can’t explain
[B&M:] My soul is bare
[B:] My hips are movin’ at a rapid pace
[B&M:] Baby feel it burn
[B:] From the tip of my toes, runnin’ through my veins
[B&M:] And now it’s your turn
[B:] Let me see what you got, don’t hesitate
[B:] I’m up against the speaker, tryin’ to take on the music
[B:] It’s like a competition, me against the beat
[B:] I wanna get in the zone, I wanna get in the zone
[B:] If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
[B:] Tryin’ to hit it, you could die
[B:] In a minute I’m a take a you on, I’m a take a you on
Hey, hey, hey
[CHORUS - as before]
[B&M:] Get on the floor, baby lose control
[B&M:] Just work your body and let it go
[B&M:] If you wanna party, just grab somebody
[M:] Hey Britney
[B&M:] We can dance all night long
[M:] Hey Britney, you say you wanna lose control
[M:] Come over here I got somethin’ to show ya

The song was first performed by Britney Spears at a NFL game (season kickoff in 2003), and was originally set to release as a single with Britney being the sole vocalist. However as the rehearsals for the ‘03 MTV VMA’s went on, Madonna heard the song as Britney played it and Madonna liked it. At the Studio, there was some agreement to put Madonna’s vocals on it. Britney was thrilled, as fan of Madonna and hearing her on her own track. It became a boost to a song which Britney felt was not strong enough to begin with, and in October ‘03, it became the first single release out of the “In the Zone” album.
