| Verse One
|
| Chillin' with «E» and Parris up in the club / V. I.P. |
| staff got us trying to
|
| pay for some bub' / I see this figure on the dance floor so I walk through /
|
| this girl is lip syncing to Ne-Yo's «Because of You» / I walked up and put my
|
| arms around her and her friend / hoping that my being forward probably wouldn’t
|
| offend / «E» and «P» then announce that they ready to bounce / gave em' a pound
|
| each cos I’m staying put and they out / now I walk back over so cool like gum /
|
| and I whispered to this girl, what’s your name? |
| Where you from? |
| / She said Mana
|
| from Kanagawa, she was sexy as hell / close danced for half an hour and I love
|
| how she smelled / sweet feminine fragrance with long brown hair / she didn’t
|
| know that I was famous, no she wasn’t aware / but she quickly found out and
|
| became all shy / which probably made her more cuter but I couldn’t say why,
|
| Ms Kanagawa
|
| so what can I say? |
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know / and what can I do?
|
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know
|
| Verse Two
|
| She didn’t speak much English so it’s hard to converse / but she asked me what
|
| I’m drinking, I was dying of thirst / I said «a China Blue cocktail loaded with
|
| ice» / she came back, took a sip, so refreshingly nice / I’m thinking she must
|
| be the most prettiest thing / the type of girl that you want for just more than
|
| a fling / plus I loved the way she moved to the musical grooves / I got to try
|
| and go through cos I got nothing to lose / she wore faux fur boots or maybe
|
| they real / cupid got me in a handcuffs, he knows how I feel / Mana from
|
| Kanagawa, capital Yokohama / is she from Kawasaki? |
| Or maybe Kamakura?
|
| / I wanted to explore her but that’s if she let me / and now I’m trying to
|
| tell her but she probably don’t get me so / as we say in London «I probably got
|
| to allow her» / but she the beautifulist from Kanagawa
|
| so what can I say? |
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know / and what can I do?
|
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know
|
| Verse Three
|
| She said she worked at the dentist as an apprentice / compared to an MC,
|
| very momentous / she sent me a photo of her and Yasuko / I’m looking for her
|
| weakness searching for loopholes / but no way through cos she don’t understand
|
| me / I feel like I kid who has lost all his candy / unhand me, yo' but she so
|
| damn gorgeous / enough to make me write this and wanna record this / she’s
|
| flawless and got such a nice personality / but everything is fantasy and never
|
| reality / knowing how it is to be lost in translation / our telephone calls
|
| don’t get no duration / Mana from Kanagawa, capital Yokohama / is she from
|
| Kawasaki? |
| Or maybe Kamakura? |
| / I wanted to explore her / cos truthfully I adore
|
| her
|
| so what can I say? |
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know / and what can I do?
|
| / I don’t know, I just don’t know |
