Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, what you know
Outside of the Beastie Boys show
Saw that kid that tried to get with me
He said, by the way, where you been?
Are you still with that boyfriend?
I said, no, with an evil grin
Want to hook up but I thought again
[Verse 2]
Met him on the train one day
When I was wrapped in pain
He said, I love you
In more ways than I've ever heard
And before I got his name
I thought that it might be okay
For use, for service
To take some pain away
[Verse 3]
I know guys that talk around town
Girls like me want to keep it down
Dope boy fresh in all your clothes
Want that girl where anything goes
Yeah, beat boys want all the fame
Girls get hurt when you play that game
You're real concerned with how I feel
No thank you, I'd rather chill
[Verse 4]
Hey, what's the deal
I'll let you know if things get ill
Can't hook up when you call the shots
On me
But you got things I'd like to see
Soft porn doesn't do it for me
I don't like sex and drugs to be
I don't like sex and drugs to be
[Verse 5]
That one day on the train
Will never lead my mind astray
I don't deserve this
In more ways than I've ever heard
But, instead of being scared
His words just went straight to my head
And I got nervous
And left my love away
[Verse 6]
I know guys that talk around town
Girls like me want to keep it down
Dope boy fresh in all your clothes
Want that girl where anything goes
Yeah, beat boys want all the fame
Girls get hurt when you play that game
You're real concerned with how I feel
No thank you, I'd rather chill
[Verse 7]
I know guys that talk around town
Girls like me want to keep it down
Dope boy fresh in all your clothes
Want that girl where anything goes
Yeah, beat boys want all the fame
Girls get hurt when you play that game
You're real concerned with how I feel
No thank you, I'd rather chill
[Verse 8]
No thank you, I'd rather chill
No thank you, I'd rather chill
No thank you, I'd rather chill
