[00:03.17]God damn, body slam, program a JAM (just push the button)
[00:15.32]Now this is a warning, yeah
[00:19.21]But you’re not listening (no)
[00:22.41]Just watch where you walk
[00:25.04]Or these footsteps will be your last (you hear?)
[00:29.56][Green]
[00:30.42]I didn’t know if the sun was shining
[00:34.52]I don’t know if it’s night or day
[00:38.23]I didn’t care ’bout the dark clouds, baby
[00:41.81]I’m watching Salome
[00:45.87]I took a blade to the Vale of Galen
[00:49.42]I cut out, baby, I shut down
[00:53.53]I took a vow to be true to someone
[00:56.63]Who watched my sorrow drown
[01:01.08]All of us start, the moon and stars above
[01:04.55]Oh all of that hurt, girl, I got to stay in love
[01:08.09]All of us heard that nothing else will do
[01:12.54]All of the girls say it’s gotta be:
[01:15.29]I wrote you a letter and I told you “you were dead”
[01:18.67]Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa
[01:22.68][Rappers]
[01:25.08]Oh shit, it don’t quit, so don’t trip (just push the button)
[01:37.00]Now all soundboy
[01:41.23]When you set out on this journey
[01:46.17]Make sure you step with surety
[01:50.46][Green]
[01:52.46]I’m cuttin’ down on the stuff I’m thinking
[01:56.61]Too much ‘umm’ drives a man insane
[02:00.34]Promised my world to a girl forever
[02:03.32]Now she can’t take the blame.
[02:07.77]I should have gone where the sun was shining
[02:11.72]Green can’t come to the ‘phone right now (my baby)
[02:16.55]I could have shone like a dark star, baby
[02:19.78]Like baby won’t allow
[02:24.03]All of us start, the moon and stars above
[02:27.49]Oh all of that hurt, girl, I got to stay in love
[02:31.45]All of us heard that nothing else will do
[02:35.36]All of the girls say it’s gotta be:
[02:38.31]I wrote you a letter and I told you “you were dead”
[02:41.78]Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa
[02:45.47]I wrote you a letter and I told you “you were dead”
[02:49.09]Ooh la la laa, ooh la la laa
[02:53.91][Ndegeocello]
[03:07.50]How many times have I loved you?
[03:09.12]How many times have I said I’m thinking of you?
[03:11.29]When you was hurting, how many times did I rub you?
[03:12.96]Hug you and I dug you, thought nobody’s above you
[03:15.72]Laugh if you want to or you can even
[03:17.73]Walk past if you want to, want to (I warned you, haunt you)
[03:20.25]And in ya dreams I’m a stalk you
[03:21.50]I taught, look at everything you gone through
[03:23.31]When you spoke of walk through, so sick
[03:25.24]And I’m a sick man (man)
[03:26.20]Inna sick land (land)
[03:27.34]With no plan, same old shit, man
[03:29.12]Same old quicksand taking me under
[03:30.77]Same old nightclub, same old number
[03:32.51]Same uncertainty making me wonder
[03:34.43]Same old lightning (quiet) thunder
[03:36.42]I’m enda my rope, girl, there’s nowhere to run to
[03:38.43]I can’t stop (stop), don’t stop (stop)
[03:40.01]Don’t stop (stop), can’t drop
[03:41.34]And I’m getting to my roadblock
[03:42.48]I can’t let it go to my head
[03:43.80]So I wrote you a letter, it said:
[03:45.28]You was dead
[03:47.18]Yeah.
