It goes, engine engine, who's the Gemini But it's the Mr. and the Mrs. brothas and sistas it goes Like that and like this as conflict kicks flows It was one of those days not much to do So what I strut to the mall just to buy a thing or two I met a wise guy playing the harmonica By him was Foxy Brown, slow down, she says "I'm Monica" Monica? Oh yeah, Monica so she say I be the M-A-L-I-K Excuse Miss Thang, my god you look smooth Put away your loot you all in with me boo She said "oh no, 'cause I'd rather a bore of you Not to get on your nerves but haven't you served a star or two? Only the ones with no class, the ones with no shape Shine on em like a diamond in the rain off the window pane It spittin' on your kitten, can I slob it too? Of course I got the sauce to put on the barbecue Well if tonight is tonight like Betty Wright Can I see you as I dig you ? out of sight Well I say honey ? as it seems but I must reveal You're that chocolate ? doctor with that sex appeal, that's you [Chorus]
