Just A Friend

Verse 1

[malique]

check have you ever met a girl

that you thought was perfect

you waited for her years

coz you know she's worth it

here's a lil story bout this girl i knew

since wayback in preskool

sometimes in 82'

she had em' two pony tail and a front tooth missing

with freckles on her cheeks cause her moms caucasian.

up on the tree house is where we chilled together

with carvings on the trunks saying friends for eva

she the type who laugh when they normally cried

and when they busy playin' house

we playin' bonnie and clyde

in grade skool every body knew we partners in crime

we usta bully kids in playground like all the time

we always seen holdin' hands to the principals office

the naughtiest in town and could no other kids stop us

in highskool she swithched her desk next to mine

so we could cheat while doing pop quizzes all the time

14th of february '93

jenny said she had a big suprise for me

gave me the very first kiss and plus a ring and a card

and said i love you

so i gave her the reast of my heart

a couple weeks later called her house at 10

the mama said i thought you suppose to be with jen

i quickly rushed to her crib

she just got out of a van

i'm like yo who was dat? oh he's just a friend

(chorus)

you,you got what i need

but you said he's just a friend

but you said he's just a friend

verse 2

[malique]

so i took jenny's word for at,at this time

i thought just havin' a friend couldn't be no crime

coz even i had friends and baby thats for sure

just like watson, hailee, baby tash and joe

so we never talk 'bout the late snack with van man

we rather talk about the future we had planned

and what to name our kids al-tarique or syamar

ayeesha or tisha for a girl and

maybe even bring our kids to the little tree house that wechilled at

but then in '94 i couldn't help it to feel sad

little jenny had to leave me to go get a little knowledge

100 miles away in this place say they call college

first coupla months it was cool

but then it had changed you

she never called and really acted like a strange ho

one day i called, it was picked up by a man

i called again she picked it up and said

hey thats just a friend

bridge

[V.E]

You know, I know what you have been up to

I know you know what you have been up to

This guy in her study group's the one who picked up the call

Helpin' her in chemistry wit cycloxeanol

I got curious and asked her who else in ya team ?

She said Ali, Hassan, Noreen and Kareem

The next day I thought of givin' her a little surprise

But when in front of Jenny's dorm I couldn't believe my eyes

I saw the same ugly van i saw in '93

I found her room but guess what a brother had to see ?

A fella half naked wit' my gurl on the couch

And baby Jenny moaning, uggh uggh aggh and ouch

So please listen to the message that I sing

Don't ever talk to gurl who says she just has a friend

(repeat chorus)

verse 3

[Joe Flizzow]

A lil' casanova pimp, man I had my flings

Hoodrats to goodie hoodies I was lil' playa flings

I'll tell ya when my final year in '96

This hunny new in skool joined my class she really sic

She made her pinafore look like a dress from Rodeo,

And clean white shoes lookin' Ferra than Gamo's

And white blouse seemed whiter than everybody else's

Just like them ads on tv man this hunny was the nicest

I had to step to up my game I told her my name

She said her name was Wanda I found out

Thatt we lived in the same street she moved 5 block down

And after 3 dates and 6 banana splits I had it locked down

We was tight but had this lil' problem though

coz Wanda always acted funny when wit Mary Joe

But when I caught 'em kissin it wasn't funny no more

Baby smiled and just said she just a friend yo...

(repeat chorus)
