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.

So U thought U just might lose your mind 2day

Brother pushin' that game on ya as if U wanna play

Askin' U every other sentence if them titties are real

One tramp even had the nerve 2 touch 'em as if U wanted a feel

Chorus:

Shoo-bed-ooh, shoo-bed-ooh, ooh!

Shoo-bed-ooh, shoo-bed-ooh, ooh!

The money that U make ain't payin' the rent, so U sleep in cars

U wonder aloud if U're happy - U say, "Yea," as if U really are

This car U drive with no gas won't take U very far

U look up in the sky and wish upon a star

Upon a star

Chorus

The answer 2 the question of life is a gray-haired bitch at least

Suckin' on the ebony dancer in between these dirty sheets

Spittin' out the aftertaste of a boy who might not call again

If this is the game U stood in line 4 - how're U gonna win?

How're U gonna win?

Shoo-bed-ooh, shoo-bed-ooh, ooh!

So U thought he just might come every time U phone

As if U've never been lonely as if U've never been alone

As if U've never been alone

How U ever gonna win if U let 'em all see your hand?

Playin' the queen don't work on your knees as if U understand

Chorus

Chorus

The answer 2 the question of life is a gray-haired bitch at least

Suckin' on the ebony dancer in between these dirty sheets

Spittin' out the aftertaste of a boy who might not call again

If this is the game U stood in line 4 - how're U gonna win?

How U gonna win?

Chorus

Chorus

So U thought U just might lose your mind 2day
