featuring Missy 'Misdemeanor' Elliott  Mocha 

[Missy] 
I can rock a party with a glass of Hennessey 
I know I make y'all sick with the way I boogie 
My fake ass friends want to hang out tonight 
I'll tell ?em follow me then I'll ditch ?em at the light 
I see ?em at the club  they want to know why I'm whilin' 
Cause I smoke weed now I'm high like a pilot 
Spendin' more cheese than you throw on a salad 
Hand me my mike, if you ?bout it, then I'm ?bout it 

[MC Lyte] 
Mmmm, yea I'm ?bout it 
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it 
I'm the MC Lyte boo but please don't crowd me 
Cause my security might get rowdy 
Make ?em punch you out and watch your vision go cloudy 
Now all you freaks want to speak 'cause I'm back 
Stick to your gossip like the glue to your tracks 
I never liked your ass, by the way, 'cause you're wack 
Give a dog a bone so here's a Lyte snack 

[Mocha - CHORUS] 
Yo yo (yo) want what i got 
Come through then 
You at home wit' a safe you ain't got nothin' in 
Ask how I got it and keep it comin' in 
>From hustlin', doublin' and publishin' (publishin') 
Want what I got 
Come through then 
You at home wit' a safe you ain't got nothin' in (nothin' in) 
Ask how I got it and keep it comin' in 
>From hustlin', doublin' and publishin' 

[MC Lyte - Verse Two] 
Used to be a rookie singin' Latti Datti 
Now me and Missy beco-rockin' the party 
Flooded Movado ain't I fly though 
Never let ?em see you comin', that's my motto 
I'm on it, I'm on it, I had the nigga goin' 
Said I was hot tomali, mind blowin' 
It's crucial, how some folks get bourgeois 
Or bourgeois, did I lose you or did you lose me 
Either way we miles apart 
I'm hittin' the ribbon, you at the start 
I'm never, ever, ever, gonna let you think 
That your shit don't stink 
So don't come around here thinkin' you can't get it 
You'll be the first to admit it 
How you got punked by hip-hop's greatest 
Missy and Lyte bringin' you the latest, yo yo 

[Repeat CHORUS] 

[Missy] 
I treat niggas like they my hoe 
Blaze ?em then I go 
Straight to the Nikko 
Meet another Puerto Rico 
Cute like tico 
Copy me like kinko 
You know I'ma freak, yo 
I don't love them amigos 
I'm straight to their pockets 
Bow all their sockets 
I'm plush like carpet 
They want to stick the target 
I don't give a f*ck what you rock 
'cause you see what I got, want what I got 

[Repeat CHORUS] 

[Mocha] 
Want what I got 

[Repeat CHORUS]
