I just saw the video. One of the best videos I've ever seen. She's a really respectable artist, I think.

frail_and_bedazzled · 10-26-2002, 01:02 PM

jared · 10-26-2002, 06:06 PM

Imagine Lil Kim dating a pastor.

I just listened to it....I'm starting to think there's something wrong with me or something because I just can't get into this kind of music. It's too risque (

) and...I don't know...it's just doesn't move me or something. maybe I need to be in a different state of mind...

Yeah, namely that it's ridiculous to think there's something wrong with you for not liking a song that some people on Netphoria have said good things about.

I really like the song though.

Really? You must be quite the prude.

tootsie · 10-28-2002, 02:33 PM

she looks like she has lost a ton of weight.

and i love that song.

Junebug · 10-28-2002, 07:51 PM

yeah I just saw a picture of her...she does look pretty good. She said she got in shape for health reasons, so good for her I guess.

Several of my friends have been trying to get me into this style of music for about a year now. I would like to be able to branch out into different genres of music but for some reason I just keep listening to the same 10 bands.
...and yeah, most people say I'm a prude. But face it, the world needs people like me to keep the rest of you in line

Holy shit. The song is ok, it's not the goddamn single of the year. You people are out of your minds.

If I remember correctly, Behind the Music reported that she tested at genius levels.

:erm

[Scratching]DJ please
Pick up your phone
I'm on the request line[Scratching]
This is a Missy Elliott one time exclusive

[Chorus]
Is it worth it, let me work it
I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it
It's (I put thing down, flip and reverse it)*Backwards 2x*
If you got a big [elephant], let me search it
To find out how hard I gotta work ya
It's (I put thing down, flip and reverse it)*Backwards 2x*

[Verse 1]
I'd like to get to know ya, so I can show ya
Put the pussy on ya, like I told ya
Gimme all your numbers so I can phone ya
Your girl acting stank than call me ova
Not on the bed, lay me on your sofa
Call before you come, I need to shave my chocha
You do or you don't or you will or you won't cha
Go downtown and eat it like a vulcha
See my hips and my tips don't cha
See my ass and my lips don't cha
Lost a few pounds in my whiffs for ya
This the kinda beat that go bha ta ta
Ra ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta
Sex me so good I say blah blah blah
Work it, I need a glass of wata
Boy oh boy its good to know ya

[repeat chorus]

[verse 2]
If you're a fly gyal, then get your nails done
Get a pedicure, get your hair did
Boy lift it up, lets make a toasta
Lets get drunk, its gon bring us closa
Don't I look like a HalleBerry posta?
See dem Belvedere playin tricks on ya
Girlfriend wanna be like me neva
You won't find a bitch that's even betta
I make it hot as Las Vegas weatha
Listen up close while I take you backwards
(Watch the way Missy like to take it backwards)*Backwards*
I'm not a prostitute but I can give you whatchu want
I love your braids and your mouth full of fonts
Love the way my ass bump bump bump bump bump bump
Keep your eyes on my bump bump bump bump bump
And think you can handle this ga-dunk ga-dunk dunk
Take my thong off and my ass go boom
Cut the lights off so you see what I can do

[repeat chorus]

[verse 3]
Boys, boys, all type of boys
Black, white, Puerto Rican, Chinese boys
???? thanga thang, ???? thanga thang
Girls, girls, get that cash
If its not a foul shakin that ass
Ain't no shame ladies, do your thang
Just make sure you ahead of tha game

Just cuz I got a lot of fame supa
Prince couldn't get me change my name howpa
Kunta Kinte, enslave a game, no se
Picture black sayin oh yesa massa
Picture Lil' Kim dating a pastor
Minute man big red can outlast ya
Who is the best, I don't have to ask ya
When I come out, you won't even matta
Why you act dumb like ughhh, duh
So you act dumb like ughhh, duh
And the drummer boy go pa rum pum pum pum
Give ya some some, some of this in a bun

[repeat chorus]

To my fellas, ooooh
Good God, I like the way you work that
[scratching]
To my ladies, woo
You sure know how to work that, good God
