Makin' it, doesn't matter how many

Takin'it

Well, I can't shake it

Off of my back, damn monkey

It's either too tight

Or it's too slack

How much

That's all it is ooh

Ninety nine

How much, yahh

Now, ninety nine

You better hack it baby

Yea, my time exploded, space blew up

Need something in my dixie cup

Whoa, let me get it right

There's the best pair of lips I've kissed all night

How much, well give it to me

I'll pay you later

Nine ninety nine

Ohh, I got a pocket calculator

Yeah, wake up, it don't make sense

Nickles and dimes

Nine ninety nine

The lion and the lamb are locked in an embrance

You won't get it till it's in your face

Ohh, I got me out of depper red

Don't panic

Ah, it's where I want to be

Yeah, oh

A useful member of society, huh!

I just need a little of that old money

Gimme ninety nine, yea

Well, I can't shake it off of my back

God damn monkey

Aw, it's too tight, or it's too slack

Yeah some things never change

Price of bullets remains the same

Here we go

Hand over fist, slap on the wrist

Umm, nine nine

That's all I'm askin'How much

How much do you want to give

Just a little bit

Nine

Yeah they operate

Look at the state of my baby

Wll, it cost 20 grand, pitfull

Yeah, that's a nine

Put your money where your mouth is

Cough it up

Ohh nickels and dimes

Yeah, huh, ooh
