Lyrics
I'm M.C. Kat on the rap, so mic it
Here's a little story and you're sure to like it
Swift and sly and I'm playing it cool
With my homegirl, Paula Abdul
Baby, seems we never ever agree
You like the movies and I like T.V.
I take things serious and you take 'em light
I go to bed early and I party all night
Our friends are sayin' we ain't gonna last
'Cause I move slowly and baby, I'm fast
I like it quiet and I love to shout
But when we get together, it just all works out
I take two steps forward, I take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Who'd-a thought (uh), we could be lovers?
She makes the bed and he steals the covers
She likes it neat and he makes a mess
I take it easy, baby, I get obsessed
She's got the money and he's always broke
I don't like cigarettes, I like to smoke
Things in common, there just ain't a one
But when we get together, we have nothin' but fun
I take two steps forward, I take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
You know it! Baby, baby
Nothing in common, but this trust
I'm like a minus, she's like a plus
One going up, one coming down
But we seem to land on common ground
When things go wrong, we make corrections
To keep things moving in the right direction
Try to fight it but I'm telling you, Jack
It's useless, opposites attract
Baby, ain't it somethin' how we lasted this long?
You and me provin' everyone wrong (na-na-na-na)
Don't think we'll ever get our differences patched (huh)
Don't really matter 'cause we're perfectly matched
I take two steps forward, I'll take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Two steps forward, two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Two steps forward, two steps back (two steps back)
We come together 'cause opposites attract
It ain't fiction, you know it's a fact (it's a fact)
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Two steps forward, two steps back
Two steps back (opposites attract)
We come together, we come together
