No Angels
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I run the office and tend the cabins and grounds
And do the errands for my mother
The ones she allows I might be capable of doing
And do you go out with friends?
Well a boy's best friend is his mother
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So, no, I don't want your number
No, I don't want to give you mine and
No, I don't want to meet you nowhere
No, don't want none of your time
No, I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
Trying to holla at me at me
But a scrub's checkin' me and his game is kinda weak
And I know that he gonna approach me
Cause I'm looking like class and he's looking like trash
Can't get with no dead beat ass
So
No, I don't want your number
No, I don't want to give you mine and
No, I don't want to meet you nowhere
No, don't want none of your time
No
I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
Holler at me
Holler at me
Holler at me
If you don't have a car and you're walking
(Oh, yes, son, I'm talking to you)
If you live at home with your momma
(We're all in our private traps)
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
(Clamped in them, and none of us can ever get out)
Wanna get me with no money
Oh no, I don't want to, no
No scrubs, no scrubs
(Sometimes we deliberately step into those traps)
No scrubs
(I was born in mine; I don't mind it anymore)
No scrubs
(Oh, but you should, you should mind it)
No scrubs
(Oh, I do, but I say I don't)
No, I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
Trying to holler at me
Trying to holler at me
Trying to holler at me
