Birthday Girl |
What is it we wanna doooo. |
now that I’m allowed to be alone with you? |
Bir-thday girl, it’s your birthday |
Wherever you wanna go |
Now you’re old enough to go and see the «R"-rated show, now |
«R"-rated show |
Yo, she said she was a magazine editor named, Janine |
Backstage in high-heels and painted-on, jeans |
Probably had the most, devious eyes I’d ever sene |
Told me she was twenty-two, she was only seventeen |
She had sum’hin to hide she snuck in from out-side |
and got, everybody gassed like the car I, drive |
With all that grown-lady ass and my far-out, vibe |
She said she came to see them Roots boys +Fall-Out+ live, but listen… |
You see the girls look good, but they brains not ready |
I talk to a woman, her mind is mo', steady |
Probably sum’hin in the way they designed, that’s mo' steady |
I just let you inside 'cause the line so, heavy |
But I shoulda know, better 'cause now I feel like America’s |
underbelly R. Kelly gutter smut peddlers |
Internet predators, chat-room irregulars |
This not my twist, you tryna send me to the therapist, miss |
Now, she told me cheddar cheese grits, two tomato fried fish |
'Cause she heard it’s my dish, tryna be my sidekick |
All the people all around thinkin she was my chick |
Sayin, «Damn, the girl thick, but she ain’t no twenty-six» |
Lookin at me like I’m up to sum’him on the funny tip |
Like I ever really been the one to try the honey drip |
It’s your birthday so let me know the gift you wanna get |
In fact, blow out the candles on the cake and make a wish for me |
They can’t really seem to look away |
so they try, asking her to stay |
Fake I.D., you won’t get turned away! |
You look, lovely toniiiight… |
Now you’re old enough to buy a gun |
So many better ways of having fun |
Right now I can only think of one… |
You look lovely toniiiight… |
