The Rooster

Lyrics

Hold up, yeah
 
 Ooo, ooo, somebody done told you wrong
 Thought it wasn't gone gone end off like that there huh?
 Hot, too hot, too hot
 Too motherfucking hot
 ♪
 Hot motherfucking tub
 Give me a back rub
 Oh I ain't mean to say bitch, I'm sorry, I apologize
 I'm sorry, I take that back I ain't gone call you no bitch no more, okay?
 OK, I started out alone
 Cause my baby mama left me
 Now there's nobody at home
 Beginning to feel like Mrs. Jackson done got cloned
 Well it's some real shit and I'm living it through this song
 A moving vehicle took my family
 As I slept out on the sofa in the Boom Boom Room
 I woke up very upset!
 I throw the covers back and peek out of the draperies
 My daughter, my baby, my baby mama all escaping me
 Like a - in the wind, she was my friend
 Like Princess D. before she died
 Therefore we tried and tried again
 But in the end you pay attention to the pluses
 But the minuses behind make it seem like you can't win
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Round two, a single parent, what is Big to do?
 Throw a party? Not hardly, I'm tryin to stay up outta that womb
 Or that p-u-s-s uss! I said uss
 Luther Vandross couldn't make a home out of this house that we smooshed
 Smashed, pushed to the limit! Smash and turned it timid
 And everyone was suffering, the house was feeling wicked
 The cat got sold, the dog got old, the food got cold
 Both of our tempers were on swole
 For the most part you fuss, fight, fart
 You build it up to break it down and now take it from the start
 Repeatedly leading a path that only ends in a clash
 Of two stubborn minds, grown folks blind to the sign
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 K-O, knocked out by technicality
 The love has kissed the canvas
 Now the whole family is mad at me
 My daughter don't want me at her PTA meetings
 And then my son he can't talk, when I change him he's peeing
 I think he's pissed
 I can't dismiss the matter of the fact because he saw you and me argue
 Now the energy is coming back
 Set an example, a positive pattern, keep life on track
 But I'm married to the music and committed to the wax
 Tapes, CDs
 Baby please, you make me wanna scream
 You're on my team starting first string so why are we arguing?
 Tapes, CDs
 Baby please, you make me wanna scream
 You're on my team starting first string so why are we arguing?
 Throw your fucking neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Tapes, CDs
 Baby please, you make me wanna scream
 You're on my team starting first string so why are we arguing?
 Tapes, CDs
 Baby please, you make me wanna scream
 You're on my team starting first string so why are we arguing?
 Throw your fucking neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
 Throw your neck out, throw your back out
