If U're 18 and over, come here
I got something 4 your mind
(Come) {repeat in song}
CHORUS:
U should do that, baby - no more will U cry
The spirit's calling, here's a reason why
If U had a chance 2 see the future, would U try?
If U will, so will I
When I call U up, I wanna tell U what 2 wear
Don't be surprised if I tell U 2 go bare
Long as U wash between your soul and through your hair
(I'm gonna do it) I'll do my duty there, oh
CHORUS
(When U) When I lay U down, I wanna tell U what 2 feel
(Don't U) Don't be surprised if I make U my daily meal
Lickin' U inside, outside, all sides up and down
With my tongue in the crease, baby, I go round when I go down, down, down,
down...
When I do U, no more will U cry
The spirit's calling, here's a reason why
If U had the chance 2 see the future, would U try?
If U will, so will I, so will I
U should do that, baby
U should do that, girl
U should do that, baby
U should do that, girl
When I suck U there, I don't wanna hear U scream
Don't talk or breathe, don't cough or sneeze (Achoo!)
Oh, just dream, dream, dream
Baby, huh, my tongue's gonna do things that U've never seen
Oh girl
When I blow that mind, baby
I'm gonna drive U crazy
U should do that, girl (No more will U cry)
U should do that, baby (Here's a reason why)
(If U had the chance 2 see the future, would U try?)
(Do that girl, do that girl)
U should do that, baby (If U will, so will I)
(Come on, come on, come on - no more will U cry)
(Here's a reason why)
(If U had the chance 2 see the future, would U try?)
(If U will, so will I)
Now break it down
When I blow that mind, baby
I'm gonna drive U crazy
Can I suck U, baby?
Can I fuck U, baby?
I wanna suck U, baby
Shout it out!
(No more will U cry)
(Here's a reason why)
And if U had a chance 2 see the future, would U try?
Oh, if U will, if U will, so will I (If U will, so will I)
Like a splendid, open-ended, celibate friend pretending
(No more will U cry)
Not 2 know it when I blow it in your eyes
(Here's a reason why)
Like a strawberry, chocolate, fender jazz, mashed potato fuzztone
All over your thighs, oh baby
That's the only come I know when I'm deep inside that... yeah!
That's the only time, the only time U go
"Ooh baby, U're so good" {x2}
Aw, shut up!
This is just so U
Come {x3}
No more will U cry
It's no wonder there's a puddle there, holding it in 4 so long
U know U can let it go, it won't be wrong
It's just U and me, baby, 2night and 4ever more
U should do that, baby - fuck it on the floor
Or better yet, why don't U do it on the chair?
U should get that shit started, U can change your underwear
Yeah, U can always change your underwear
It don't mean U're wrecked cuz U kiss in a restaurant
It don't mean U're wrecked just cuz me tallywhacker suckin' is all U want
All it means is that the one that come before me never made U come
U should do that, baby
Do that, baby {x3}
Let me suck U
Don't scream
Don't talk
Don't breathe
Just lay back {x2}
Just lay back and dream
Dream {x3}
Oh yeah
Oh love
Did U come, come, come, come?
I wanna know
(U should do that, baby) U should do that, baby
Oh yes (Oh yes), oh yes
Come - U should do that, baby (Do that, girl)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah... ! (Oh yeah)
No more, no more (No more will U cry)
Will U cry, cry, cry, cry (Here's a reason why)
If U had the chance 2 see the future, would U try?
If U will, if U will, so will I (Come, come, come, come)
(Do that, baby)
When I blow that mind, baby
I'm gonna drive U crazy
Come
U should do that, baby
Come

(Space)
I never been one 2 hide my feelings
Baby, U blow my mind
I painted your face upon my ceiling
I stare at it all the time (I...)
Imagine myself inside your bedroom (Oh I...)
Imagine myself in your sky (U...)
U are the reason there's bass in my boom (Oh U...)
U are the reason I'm high
BRIDGE:
If U and I were just 10 feet closer
Then I'd make U understand
That everything I wanna do 2 your body, baby
I would do 2 your hand
Then U'd be hip 2 the deep rush
Deeper than the boom of the bass
With every other flick of the pink plush
The closer we get 2 the space
(The space) {x3}
Don't U want 2 go?
(The space) - Where the souls go
(The space) - Where the tears flow
(The space) - Where the love grows
Do U want 2 go?
I never been one 4 this thing obsession
But just keep your eye on my hips
The circles they make will be my confession
Just say the word and I'll strip
I've had dreams of us cuddling on the planet Mars
Then when I wake up, ooh, I'm all covered in sex
With eyes that fall somewhere between rubies and stars
Don't look at me, baby, or I'll flex
BRIDGE
(The space) - Go
(The space) - Flow
(The space) - Grow
Do U want 2 go?
(The space) - Where the souls go
(The space) - Where the tears flow
(The space) - Where the love grows
Do U want 2 go?

Come
Lie down beneath my shadow
Lie down beneath my shadow with great delight
And your fruit will be sweet 2 me
Come

While my right embraces time
Therein, my virgin, love's wine

{sample repeats in song}
(Pheromone make a nigga go crazy, fuckin' around make a nigga wanna die)
L is 4 lust
O is 4 obsession
V is 4 the vast way U
Envelop my soul
This is crazy, this is crazy
But I could die from the pheromone
I can see the castle, I can see the throne
I can see the beloved and she's not alone
But it's cool like that cuz I'll be diggin' her just the same
I can see the curtain wrestled from the wall
I can see the hands tied, I can see it all
He pulls a gat - this is how they play the game
And I'm 'round the back cuz curiosity, it knows no shame
CHORUS:
Pheromone rush over me like an ocean
Pheromone controllin' my every motion
Pheromone - I'm helpless as a pet
Pheromone - when your body's wet {echoed}
I can feel the tension through the crack in the door
He begs 4 love while she's disgusted more
And I'm on fire cuz I never seen her nude before
I wanna save her (Save her!), I want 2 watch (Watch)
All my vital signs go up a couple of notches
When he unties her and she runs 2 the open door
He trips and grinds her right there all on the floor
She’s so close I can touch her (Touch her)
CHORUS
Her eyes are closed but there's no penetration
He just makes her point the pistol 2 his nose while he masturbates
And I see a tear headed down towards her smile
What happens next, it all depends upon your style
(Oh, this is crazy baby!)
CHORUS
(Pheromone) {x3}
Pheromone rush over me like an ocean
Pheromone controllin' my every motion
I don't really wanna go crazy but I'm helpless as a pet
When I see your naked body sweat (Pheromone)
When I see your naked body sweat (Pheromone)
When I see your naked body sweat (body sweat, body sweat)
Pheromone - But I'm helpless as a pet (Pheromone)
When I see your naked...
Baby, when your body's wet
Pheromone {x4}

Hey, whoop it up, y'all!
1-2-3-4! {x3}
(Loose!) {repeat throughout song}
Everybody wants 2 know what's wrong witchu
They see U actin' like a crazy fool
When the music hits U don't know what 2 do
Push your way up 2 the front and shake your motherfuckin' 'do loose!
Fuckin' 'do Loose!
Bangin' gangs, slangin' wangs and rocks
Won't get U nothin' but an angry cop
Get your education first and buy a pair of shoes
Push your way up 2 the front and shake your motherfuckin' 'do loose!
Guitar solo
How the hell U gonna tell me what 2 do?
I've got the clothes, I got the bank and the crew
If U look real close, I even got your garden tool
Push your way up 2 the front and shake your motherfuckin' 'do loose!
C'mon everybody - loose!
Tommy and Sonny
Turn around!
Guitar solo
Turn around again {x2}
On the one
Cool!

There was one September day that papa worked 2 hard
First he crucified every dandelion out in the yard
Then he screamed at baby twice 4 throwin' rocks at passin' cars
Baby didn't listen, so like a priceless work of art
He got snatched by his papa who then opened up the closet door
And pushed the 4-year-old down onto the closet floor
Baby cried - "I'm sorry, I won't do it no more"
Papa said - "Yeah, I know, that's what this here's 4"
Smack! Ooh papa
Smack! Smack! Ooh papa, papa
Smack! Ooh papa
Smack! Smack! Ooh papa, papa
As the door closes, baby starts 2 cry
"Please don't lock me up again without a reason why!"
Papa just went outside and pointed a shotgun up in the sky
He said - "How come I don't love my woman?"
Then he took aim and died
Boom! Papa
Boom! Boom! Papa, papa
Boom! Papa
Boom! Boom! Papa, papa
Don't abuse children or else they turn out like me
Fair 2 partly crazy, deep down we're all the same
Every single one of us knows some kind of pain
In the middle of all that's crazy, this one fact still remains
If U love somebody, your life won't be in vain
And there's always a rainbow at the end of every rain

Lie down, fair one, and come away
Till the rain is over and gone

G-G-Gimme the beat now!
(Face the music) {repeat sample in song}
Lead line
If the air's a little thick in this room 2night
I reckon it's the result from an onslaught of separatist rookies
Overcome by this colorful sight
Talkin' so fast that even they
Talkin' so fast that even they don't know what they mean
Of all the things 2 base a rhyme
How is it that U every time regurgitate the racist lines that keep us apart?
Thank God this ain't Monopoly
U'd make us all go back 2 start
CHORUS:
Race in the space I mark human
Race - face the music
We all bones when we dead
Race in the space I mark human
Cut me, cut U
Both the blood is red, I gotcha!
Race {x2}
Check it
Three seats over there's a lady black
Entrusted 2 her care is a little white girl
And the fact of the matter is
Before her mama or another kid at school
Tell her 'bout the fallacy that one race rules over the other
She'd be a much-better-off-left fool
If we never heard about the evils that those before us committed
Then how my dear, tell me now how my dear...
Tell me now how now would we know?
And th-th-the band say...
CHORUS
Race {x2}
Down, down with H-I-S-T-O-R-Y
And all this BS propagandi
Keepin' U from me and me from U as we grow
I don't wanna know (I don't wanna know)
Why those before us hated each other
I'd rather believe they never did
I'd rather believe (I'd rather, I'd rather believe)
That there's hope 4 a kid
And if he imitates the best
I guess that's what I'll try 2 be
And I'ma let the rest dissolve with my guitar underneath the sea
Race
Face the music {x2}
Race in the space I mark human
Race - face the music
We all bones when we dead
Race in the space I mark human
Cut me, cut U
Both the blood is red
Get it? (Race)
Got it! (Race)
Face the music
(Race) {repeat}

I wanna top the rose petals that whisper sweet
Come on

So dark, so dark (Dark) {x2}
Inside lookin' out my window
I don't see nothin' but rain
Sun up in the sky just-a-shinin' (Just-a-shinin')
Still I'm lost in my shadow of pain (Mm-hmm)
Like an innocent man that's on death row
I don't understand what made U go
And wanna leave me, baby
Leave me in the dark
Can U tell me, (said) tell me?
U took my sex and my money (Money)
Took all my self-esteem, yes U did
U had the nerve 2 think it was funny (Funny)
I never knew a bitch so mean, yes sir
U absolutely drove a man 2 tears
All I really know is that U sincerely
Wanna hurt me, baby
Oh, yes U do
U wanna hurt me in the dark
Sunshine - Somebody make the sun shine
Dark cloud - Somebody take this dark cloud away
Just as sure as Noah built the ark (That's how sure)
That's how sure I am U broke my heart
How could U, baby, leave me in the dark?
Baby, it's so dark
So dark, so dark (Dark)
Feel like the sun ain't never gonna shine
U left me in the dark
So dark, so dark (Dark)
I don't know, I don't know why we ever had 2 part
Baby, can't see a damn thing out my window, it's so dark
So dark, so dark (Dark)
Sometimes I want 2 curse the ground U walk on
Even when I know that everything U feel, I feel it 2
I wanna curse U, baby
Ooh, U left me in the dark
And now I want 2 curse U, baby (I wanna curse U, baby)
4 leavin' me alone, alone, alone (U left me in the dark)
Oh, yes U did
And now all I wanna say is
In the dark
Ow! U left me {x2}
It's like being on death row (In the dark)
I don't understand why U had 2 go
I don't understand why U (hurt me in the dark)
Don't understand why U (hurt me in the dark)
Don't understand why U hurt me, hurt me, hurt me, hurt me here!
Just leave me (In the dark)
(In the dark)
So dark, so dark (Dark) (In the dark)
So dark, so dark (Dark)
(In the dark)

So low, the curb looks like a skyscraper
So high, the stars are under me
So quiet, I can hear the blood rushin' through my veins
So low, I feel like I'm goin' insane
The angels, they watch in wonder
When U made love 2 me
Through the rain and the thunder
U cried in ecstacy
U were so kind
I felt sorry 4 all creation be
Cuz at the time, no one was lucky
No one was lucky, no one was lucky as me
And now U're gone and I just wanna be still
So silent, I'll just let my senses sleep
It's gonna be so hard 2 hear my voice
If I ever learn once more 2 speak
I'm so lost, no one can find me
And I've been looking 4 so long
But now I'm done
I'm so low, so low, my name is "No One"

Ready or not, here I come
(Come on) {x2}
(Letitgo) {repeated whisper in BG of song}
All my life I've kept my feelings deep inside
Never was a reason 2 let somebody know
Lover here, lover there - Who cried? Who cared? Foolish pride
Never was a good seat at any of this man's shows
CHORUS:
Until now all I wanted 2 do is...
Do, do, do what I do and...
Bang, bang, bang on the drummer and love so-and-so
But now I gotta let it go (Letitgo)
Lay back and let the vibe just flow
I wanna just let it go (Letitgo)
Lay back and let my feelings show
I'm ready 4 the real
Give me something I can feel
All my life this heart's been under lock and key
My curtains were drawn, there wasn't nobody home
Trigger here, trigger there - everybody's high except 4 me
Better off dead if I couldn't be alone
CHORUS
I... I'm ready 4 the real
Give me something I can feel
14 years and tears I've longed 2 sing my song
But a horse couldn't drag your ass 2 put me on
But now I've got an army and we're 3 million strong
This song will ring in your ears when we are gone
Until now all I wanted 2 do is...
Do, do, do what I do and...
Bang, bang, bang on the drummer and love so-and-so
But now I wanna let it go (Letitgo)
Lay back and let the vibe just flow
Said I wanna let it go (Letitgo)
Lay back and let my feelings show
I... I'm ready 4 the real
Come a little closer
(Letitgo)
(Lay back and let the vibe just flow)
