Lily Allen: Chorus
It's this thing now
That's driving me wild
I gotta see what's up
Before it gets me down x3
Love's not a mystery, it's everything
Common: Verse One
She was the type to watch Oprah and The Today Show
Be on the treadmill, uh, like OK Go
Had the body, un body, that you can't pay for
That means she had some D's on her, but they wadn't fake though
Had a drive, a Drive for Rodeo
She spent pesos on those Lebos
Spent class at the gym, Striptease on the pole
She was so obsessed with her body and clothes
To every party she goes, trying hard to be chose
They say it's hard for a pimp, but extra hard for these hoes
Reading US or People mag, tryna get these scoops
Chasing an actor for a Bentley Coupe
She recruit a ball player from the Clippers
Then came the pumps off
Thinking she Number One, when she just a Jump Off
Doing all she can for a man and a baby
Driving herself crazy like the astronaut lady
Lily Allen: Chorus
It's this thing now
That's driving me wild
I gotta see what's up
Before it gets me down x3
Love's not a mystery, it's everything
Common: Verse Two
He had paper since we was in, we was in High School
Pop was a doc, mom taught at my school
Lock with the rocks, in his ear he kept jewels
One of the Diddy types, the d-d-d-Dame Dash dudes
Pushed the Maserati Sport, reading the Robb Report
Wanted to be Mike, but he was never live in sports
Since golf was in, he was in the driving course
To live the rap life is what he was striving for
Spending cash at the bar to get credit
Drinking Chandon just because BIG said
They say Ye is, but dude big-headed
Rocked the fur in the summer, so, somebody'll pet it
He had a fetish for shoes that's athletic
Pathetic on his myspace page, half naked
It's a shame what they do for fame, and to be respected
Joe you coulda got it, if you never woulda stressed it
Lily Allen: Chorus
It's this thing now
That's driving me wild
I gotta see what's up
Before it gets me down x3
Love's not a mystery, it's everything
Common: Verse Three
They was one of them couples, people said they was the it
Unbreakable like Bobby & Whit
Or Ryan and Reese, or Kimora and Russ
Relationships can be dead but look live to us
I guess we all been through it, where we try too much
Losing yourself and your line and stuff
Wishing for the diamond cuffs, searching for the ring
Where love is not a thing, it's everything, sing
Lily Allen: Chorus
It's this thing now
That's driving me wild
I gotta see what's up
Before it gets me down x3
Now it's not a mystery, it's everything
Gets me down x5
Gets me…
Love's not a mystery, it's everything
