Lyrics

You know I used to be a player, fly girl layer and a heart breaker Love maker, back breaker, but then I made a mistake Yes I fell in love with this ill chick Sweatin' me for money, my name and the dilsnick My homeboys told me drop her, 'cause it would be to my benefit She used to say I'd better quit hanging with those derelects Romancing is my thing but I can't swing with no scheming hoes Wherever my Beemer goes you know that I'm driving Surviving in the 90's is a must so I trust That everyone listen up as my vocals give thrust I bust my rhymes first never chasing a skirt Do much work while other suckas need more time to rehearse Now back to the ex-girls, ex-lovers, ex-friends It made me mad to find that she was only after my ends She phones me and goes on about her new life now I wish she knew right now, I think she's busted let's discuss it When I was with her no trust, just fights Just the he-say-she-say and the neighborhood highlights Now I got my new girl or as I say my baby doll But still I'm gettin' crazy calls, my ex-girl's got balls Don't wanna play the field 'cause I get lovin' at home base Don't gimme no long face just exit with grace You and I are the past, c'est la vie, much respect girl But now you're my ex-girl, 'cause I'm on with the next girl 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls looks so, so, so good, next 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls look so, so good, next, next She had much loot liked to buy me fresh-dipped gear Liked to have me near 'cause of my savoir faire The time we shared was brief 'cause I needed relief From her high-classed antics and all her conceit Now she's crying wolf and I like don't wanna hear that I told her the bear facts when things started out She wines and she pouts about how I did her bad yo But she'd tried to buy me, even tempt me with the hiney I fell for a sec 'cause the clothes were real fly I could almost feel I would give into her whims Her thoughts were erratic, sporadic, crazy in nature I told her, hey look, yo I can no longer date ya Tried to pimp me with bank and fell short, your ship sank Many thanks for the time and the watch and the link You and I are the past, c'est la vie, 'nuff respect girl But now you're my ex-girl 'cuz I'm straight with the next girl 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls look so good, next 'Cause girls looks so, so, so good, next Looks, looks, looks Looks, looks, looks Looks, looks, looks So good You saw my mom's in the supermarket and gave her your number You asked how's my sister, then asked how's my brother Didn't ask about my father 'cause you know he ain't like ya Every time I left for your crib yo he'd really get hyper The advice he used to give me makes much sense now I can't believe I used to let you break my confidence down You used to ask me why the hell did I wanna live in Brooklyn? You messed up my flow although you were good-lookin' Yes darlin', was fly and this was the problem 'Cause back in the day she had me scheming and robbin' To get her things to wear so when she went to the club All eyes were on her and oh me I just bugged Caught in between felling proud or feeling more like a sucker Had to go undercover, get away, find another Been in Brooklyn nine years and been around the world too I've seen so many fly girls and I knew just what to do I went from ex to the next, took my time with each one And you know they still love me so stop jellin' me hon I went home to see my mom and I saw you at the bus stop Must I stop? Nah I think not You and I are the past c'est la vie, much respect girl But now you're my ex-girl and I'm out with the next girl 'Cause girls looks so good, next 'Cause girls looks so good, next 'Cause girls looks so, so, so good, next 'Cause girls looks so good, next 'Cause girls looks so good, next 'Cause girls looks, looks, looks so
