O.P.P. (Re-Recorded)

Arm me with harmony

 Dave, drop a load on 'em

 O.P.P., how can I explain it?
 I'll take you frame by frame it
 To have y'all all jumpin', shoutin', sayin' it
 O is for other, P is for people, scratch your temple
 The last P, well, that's not that simple, uh
 It's sorta like well, another way to call a cat a kitten
 It's five little letters that are missin' here
 You get it on occasion if the other party isn't gaming
 It seems I gotta start the explainin'
 Bust it
 You ever had a girl and met her on a nice hello
 You get her name and number and then you feelin' real mellow
 You get home, wait a day, she's what you wanna know about
 Then you call up and it's her girlfriend's or her cousin's house
 It's not a front, F to the R to the O to the N to the T
 It's just her boyfriend's at her house
 (Oh, that's why she's scary)
 It's O.P.P. time, other people's, but you get it
 There's no room for relationship, there's just room to hit it
 How many brothers out there know just what I'm gettin' at?
 Who thinks it's wrong 'cause I'm splittin' and co-hittin' that?
 Well if you do, that's O.P.P and you're not down with it
 But if you don't, here's your membership
 You down with O.P.P.?
 (Yeah you know me)
 You down with O.P.P.?

 (All the homies)
 For the ladies, O.P.P means something gifted
 The first two letters are the same
 But the last is something different
 It's the longest, loveliest, lean, I call it the leanest
 It's another five letter word rhymin' with cleanest and meanest
 I won't get into that, I'll do it, ah, sorta properly
 I'll say the last P, hmm, stands for property
 Now lady, here comes a kiss
 Blow a kiss back to me, now tell me exactly
 Have you ever known a brother who had another like a girl or wife?
 And you just had to stop a toast 'cause he look just that nice
 You looked at him, he looked at you and you knew right away
 He had someone but he was gonna be yours anyway
 You couldn't be seen with him at all and still you didn't care
 'Cause in a room behind a door, no one but y'all are there
 When y'all are finished, y'all can leave and only y'all would know
 And y'all could throw the skeleton bone right in the closet door
 Now don't be shy 'cause if you're down, I want your hands up high
 Say, "O.P.P." (O.P.P.) I like to say with pride
 Now when you do it, do it well and make sure that it counts
 You're now down with a discount
 You down with O.P.P.?
 (Yeah you know me)
 You down with O.P.P.?

 (All the ladies)
 A scab tried to O.P.P. me
 I had a girl and she knew that matter of fact
 Her and my girl was partners that had a fall-out
 Disagreement, yeah an argument
 She tried to do me so we did it in my apartment, bust it
 That wasn't the thing, it must have been the way she hit the ceiling
 'Cause after that she kept on coming back and catchin' feelings
 I said, "Let's go, my girl is coming so you gotta leave"
 She said, "Oh no, I love you Treach" I said, "Now child please"
 You gots to leave, come grab your coat, right now you gotta go
 I said, "Now look, you choose the stairs or choose the stair window
 This was a fling, a little thing, you shouldn't have brought your heart
 'Cause you know I was O.P.P., hell, from the very start"
 Come on, come on, now let me tell you what it's all about
 When you get down, you can't go 'round runnin' off at the mouth
 That's rule number one in this O.P.P. establishment
 You keep your mouth shut and it won't get back to her or him
 Exciting, isn't it? A special kinda business
 Many of you will catch the same sorta O.P.P. messing with
 Him or her, for sure, I'm going to admit it
 When O.P.P. comes, damn, skippy I'm with it
 You down with O.P.P.?
