["Fly girl gettin but never was I sweatin","Your whole appearance is a lie and it could never be true","But little did I know that she was playin' with my mind","These girls don't know me from jack, yet I feel like the Mack","Swingin' with my main man Lucky behind my back","Not no Parkay, not no margarine","Slum village gold still danglin in your ear","Until I met my match - her name was Flo","You looked in the mirror, didn't know what to do","1988 Senior Year, Garvey High","If I wanted someone like you I woulda swung with Jamie Summers","Tina, Stacy, Julie, Tracy","You get an E for effort, and T for nice try","You wanna be treated right, see Father MC","You barely have a neck but still sportin' a rope","Used ta love 'em, leave 'em, skeeze 'em, tease 'em","Cause I got the crazy game and yo, I'm smooth like butter","Was a stone cold lover, you couldn't tell me jack","She finally played me, but yo, I'd find another","But now it seems, I met my match","","Four-finger ring just so Phifer can scope","Or check Ralph Tresvant, for sensitivity","I asked who did your hair and you tell me \"Diane made it\"","I had Tonya, Tamika, Sharon, Karen","Loungin with the Tipster, Coolin with Sha","Word life, I can't front - thought I was all that","Where all the guys were corny but the girls were mad fly","All the troopers round the way used to call her a ho","If you can't braid it, best thing to do is fade it","Here, Here - take the towel, wipe off your brow","Yeah - I messed around with the one called Flo","Cause when it came to honeys I would go on a stroll","Butter, like butter baby Butter, like butter baby","If you can't achieve it, then why not try and weave it","I remember when","Allofasudden \"We love you Phife\" - ease of ho, my name's Malik","Phife this, Phife that, where you goin', where you at","Well here comes Flo, with the crazy whip appeal","The only thing I learned is, good girls are hard to find","After all this time tryin' to be a superhoe","But I can't stand, no bionic lady","Is this really love, then again, how would I know","Strickly butter baby, strictly butter","And if you really loved yourself then you would try and be you","Find 'em, lose 'em - also abuse 'em","Tryin' hard to look fly, but yo, you're lookin' dumber","","If you can't extend it then you might as well suspend it","And believe it or not, they all got done","I feel like Heavy D I need somebody for me","But since it was bought, I had to dismiss ya","If you were you and just you, talk to you, maybe","Girls were goodie two shoes, but now they turned to freaks","Scopin out the honeys - they know who they are","Phife Dog is on the mic and I'm smooth like Butter","If your hair and eyes were real, I wouldn't have dissed ya","See I am not the one, I got more game than Parker Brothers","Cause I thought it was me - like Bell Biv Devoe","But deep down in my heart I knew that Flo was good to go","Not someone who's mind is blank and tryin' to juice me for my bank","And take the Ccontact out your eye, you're far from lookin' fly","Yesterday your eyes were brown but today they are blue","What type of crap is that - yo, hows about a smack?","Now tell me what's the reason, for dyin' your hair","My whole attitude was new day, next hon","I was the b-ball playin fly rhyme sayin","And I'm all true man, like Alexander O'Neal","You didn't want me then, so hon, don't want me now","Settlin' down with one girl, wasn't tryin' to hear that"]
