Doo Wop (That Thing)

Lyrics

Yo, remember back on the Bully
 When cats used to harmonize like (ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
 Yo, yo, my men and my women
 Don't forget about the deen
 Sirat al-Mustaqeem
 Yo, it's about a thing, uh, yo, yo
 If ya feel real good wave your hands in the air
 And lick two shots in the atmosphere!
 (Put them up, put them up)
 (Put them up, put them up)
 (Put them up, put them up)
 It's been three weeks since you were looking for your friend
 The one you let hit it and never called you again
 'Member when he told you he was 'bout the Benjamins?
 You act like you ain't hear him then give him a little trim
 To begin, how you think you're really gon' pretend
 Like you wasn't down and you called him again?
 Plus, when you give it up so easy you ain't even foolin' him
 If you did it then, then you'd probably f- again
 Talking out your neck, sayin' you're a Christian
 A Muslim, sleeping with the jinn
 Now that was the sin that did Jezebel in
 Who you gon' tell when the repercussions spin?
 Showing off your ass 'cause you're thinking it's a trend
 Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again
 You know I only say it 'cause I'm truly genuine
 Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem
 Baby girl, respect is just a minimum
 N- fucked up and you still defending 'em
 Now, Lauryn is only human
 Don't think I haven't been through the same predicament
 Let it sit inside your head like a million women in Philly, Penn
 It's silly when girls sell their souls because it's in
 Look at where you be in, hair weaves like Europeans
 Fake nails done by Koreans
 Come again
 A win win, come again
 A win win, come again
 My friend come again
 Guys, you know you'd better watch out
 Some girls, some girls are only about
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 The second verse is dedicated to the men
 More concerned with his rims and his Timbs than his women
 Him and his men come in the club like hooligans
 Don't care who they offend, poppin' yang (like you got yen!)
 Let's stop pretend, the ones that pack pistols by they waist men
 Cristal by the case men, still in they mother's basement
 The pretty face men claiming that they did a bid men
 Need to take care of they three or four kids
 And they face a court case when the child support late
 Money taking and heart breaking, now you wonder why women hate men
 The sneaky, silent men
 The punk, domestic violence men
 Quick to shoot the semen, stop acting like boys and be men
 How you gonna win when you ain't right within?
 How you gonna win when you ain't right within?
 How you gonna win when you ain't right within?
 Uh-uh, come again (yeah)
 Hey, yo-yo, come again
 My French men, come again
 My sister, come again
 Watch out, watch out
 Look out, look out
 Watch out, watch out
 Look out, look out
 Watch out, watch out
 Look out, look out
 Watch out, watch out
 Look out, look out
 Girls, you know you'd better watch out
 Some guys, some guys are only about
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 Guys, you know you'd better watch out
 'Cause girls, some girls are only about
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 Girls, you know you'd better watch out
 Some guys, some guys are only about
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 That thing, that thing, that thing
 Hey, we've got some very intelligent women here, man
 Do you think you're too young to really love somebody?
 (No! No, no, I don't think so)
 I say it for me, uh, I'm an adult I say, wait
 You're too young to be in love, this is silly
 You're infatuated or whatever, you got nice jeans
 You wear fancy Adidas
 I mean, it might be something I don't know
 (Is their a difference from loving somebody and being in love with somebody?)
 Well, you tell me, what's the difference?
 Okay, you can love anybody but when you're in love with somebody
 You're looking at it like this
 You're taking that person for what
 He or she is no matter what he or she look like or no matter what he or she do
 (You're crazy! You fall in love, you can fall out of love)
 You might stop being in love
 With them but you are not gonna stop loving that person
 Maybe sometimes they ain't never been loved before
 Or they never been in love before, they don't know what the feeling is to be loved
 (Class, she poetic)
 She killed it, we could end that conversation with that, right?
