Lyrics

Frontin'

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.

Don't wanna sound full of myself or rude

But you ain't looking at no other dudes cause you love me

(I'm sorry but.. so sexy)

So you think about a chance

You find yourself trying to do my dance

Maybe cause you love me (Uh, you do it well)

So then we tried - singin it slow now

Because you weren't used to how fast we touched (fast we touched)

Then we locked eyes - and I knew I was in there

And I was gon' tear ya ass up (tear ya ass up)

[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]

I know that I'm carrying on, never mind if I'm showing off

I was just frontin (you know I want ya babe)

I'm ready to bet it all, unless you don't care at all

But you know I want ya (you should stop frontin babe)

[Verse: Pharrell Williams]

Trying to be the best girlfriend you could be

But still you sneak and look at me, and girl I love it

Then you give your other girl a shove

Tell her you gon' palm her ass like it was

And she's gon love it (whoa-oh whoa, yeah yeah)

So then we tried - singin it slow now

Because you weren't used to how fast we touched (fast we touched)

Then we locked eyes - and I knew I was in there

And I was gon' tear ya ass up (tear ya ass up)

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[J:] We got another one Pha-real [Pharrell]

[P:] Dance, ooooooh ooooh

[J:] I call you Pha-real cause you the truth, haha, Young!

[P:] Whoa-oh, oh ohhhh

[J:] Uh, yeah

[P:] Dance, ooooooh ooooh

[J:] Yeah, lemme talk to em

[P:] Whoa-oh, oh ohhhh

[J:] I'm a keep it real

[Verse: Jay-Z]

Everytime your name was brought up

I would act all nonchalant infront of an audience

Like if you was just another shorty I put the naughty on

But uh, truth be told you do me for a loop, this Hov

I'm too old to be frontin when I'm feeling Denzel

And you acting like you ain't appealing but you are

Stuting like you ain't my only girl but you are (I was just frontin)

I'm ready to stop when you are

[Chorus]

[Outro: Pharrell Williams]

Dance, ooooooh ooooh

Whoa-oh, oh ohhhh

Dance, ooooooh ooooh

Whoa-oh, oh ohhhh
