well it definitely sounds like "я тебя люблю" but with some kind of an accent. like a non-native Russian speaker, maybe?
I only know a minuscule amount of Russian, but the way they pronounce "way ya" doesn't sound like Russian to me. "ya show" does sound like "еще", but I wouldn't expect that at the end of a sentence. I'd love to be corrected if I'm wrong though.

I hear "ей шов" instead of "U Show" which doesn't make much sense... Still a possibility.
Also worth noting: Does anyone hear Make That Move by Shalamar in this song?

Yes, actually. At the very beginning it's most noticeable.

bay-yin-ii or بيّني
Sometimes I hear bay-yan-ii but the difference would probably be dialectal.
Translated, it would be 'Show me!', also carrying a sense of 'demonstrate to me'.
I'm basing all this on the song title though and trying to find a phrase which bears some resemblance. I could be miles out.
conicidentally...Bayyan is the adapted Muslim surname of several members of Kool and the Gang. the plot thickens...
