v 1
You can take your Usher CD
Ima take my Luther with me
You can take Jaheim
(As if I'd let you take my Pendigrass)
You can keep that ghetto chain
(Betta leave that diamond ring)
You might as well get used to it
(No more wearing it)
You can tell your friends
things won't be like they was before
All your flossing, all the shopping I was paying for
You can act like (you ain't sorry now)
But I know I'm going to be missed
When it all comes down to this . . .
[Chorus]
We're going out of business
Shutting down the doors
Everything's on clearance
Closing up the store
Don't act like you don't hear it
Don't act like you don't know
We're going out of business
Everything must go
[v 2]
Betta pay your cable bill
(Come on girl, let's be for real)
You're the one that had to have
your Oprah and your (Dr. Phil)
(Don't you touch that sofa bed)
Girl, you know I paid for it
(Can't have you and him on it, up there having sex)
You can tell your friends a lie
why we not down no more
You can tell them it is not what
I was wishing for
You can act like (you're not sorry now)
Girl, I know I'm going to be missed
When it all comes down to this . . .
[chorus:]
We're going out of business
Shutting down the doors
Everything's on clearance
Closing up the store
Don't act like you don't hear it
Don't act like you don't know
We're going out of business
Everything must go
We're going out of business
Counting down the days
In terms of no conditions, you'll find no stage
Don't act like you ain't with it
Don't act like you don't know
We're going out of business
Everything must go
[Bridge]
You can take them stupid lies
(Put them where the sun don't shine)
Take them to the girlfriend that put all the shit inside your mind
Even if you apologized
Too late, we're out of time
(We're almost out, we're almost out, yes)
[chorus x 2]
We're going out of business
Shutting down the doors
Everything's on clearance
Closing up the store
Don't act like you don't hear it
Don't act like you don't know
We're going out of business
Everything must go
We're going out of business
Counting down the days
In terms of no conditions, you'll find no stage
Don't act like you ain't with it
Don't act like you don't know
We're going out of business
Everything must go
