Well certain thing you don't act man
and you can't take it back

but certain things you have to look on an other thing,
hm..... , me can't understand what I say
Me nah understand what we a say,
me not understand what we are chat about,
well this is what we chat about
.....what me a talk 'bout....
Baby Girl, waw waw waw want you back inna me life

She vex when she see me inna the bed with Yvette
and Susan a pose up like style (what a thing)
Peachess, princess, put on her dress,
and she decide we have to stay far, anyway
