Don't hate me, cuz I'm beautiful
Hey now - what's up?
Ah, you know 2 come over here
Staring at a brother so hard
Say U what?
If U wanna be my baby
Got 2 tell me so
Overconfident lady
Better act like U know
If U wanna be my baby
Come on, take my hand
Tell me that U wanna get with...
The prettyman
See me up here dancing ...
Dancing on the floor
Got 2 do about doing
Just a little more
Where I wear my knickers
Round this booty tight
Make a sister wanna call me up
Every night
Hey
If U wanna be my baby
Got 2 tell me so
Overconfident lady
Better act like U know
If U wanna be my baby
Come on, take my hand
Tell me that U wanna get with...
The prettyman
Everywhere I go
People stop and stare
They just wanna see me swing
This pretty hair
There ever comes a time
It just won't grow
Like my brother
I'll buy some more
Hey!
If U wanna be my baby
Got 2 tell me so (Tell me, tell me)
Overconfident lady (Hurry up)
Better act like U know (Do U know)
If U wanna be my baby
Come on, take my hand (Take my hand)
Tell me that U wanna get with... (Say)
The prettyman
If U wanna be my baby (Prettyman)
Prettyman (Prettyman)
In the early morning
When I'm feeling nice (Prettyman)
I walk by the mirror
And kiss it twice (Prettyman)
When it comes 2 perfume
It's on the shelf
I get it down
If there ain't nobody around
I, I, I smell myself
Hey
Now
Prettyman
Do U...
(Prettyman)
I ain't thru
See out
Prettyman
Come on band, break down (Prettyman)
I don't care about money
I buy gold by the ounce
Y2K not today
I write a check and the bank bounce
Superbowl used 2 be my nickname
If U ask about love
No money back guarantee
When I'm a bow
Pretty
Man
If U wanna be my baby
Got 2 tell me so
Overconfident lady
Better act like U know
If U wanna be my baby
Come on, take my hand
Tell me that U wanna get with...
The prettyman
Maceo {Maceo Parker - sax}
Brother - can U blow
Pretty (Prettyman)
Come harder
[...]
Wait - stop - go (Prettyman)
Maceo - can U ...
Maceo - can U blow
Hey!
Prettyman (Prettyman)
Oh yeah
Can I scream now - hey
(Prettyman)
Can I scream now - hey
(Prettyman)
Hey
{phone rings}
Hello
Who is it? (Prettyman)
Yes, this is the prettyman (Prettyman)
{hangs up}
Princey!
