(chorus)
|
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
|
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
|
|
Here's a flow
|
An En Vogue hip-hop intro
|
Time to rap talk about the info
|
Pertaining to the four
|
Who re-opened the harmony door
|
(And let the vocals soar)
|
|
(Shoo wop shoo wop)
|
|
All of the gossipin' it put us in a recite mode
|
Unloadin' while the grooves explodin'
|
Just steppin' and keepin' pepin'
|
A vocal lethal-weapon
|
In this song will be givin' ev-ology lessons
|
About our history and our passin'
|
How long (steady, strong)
|
Will the En Vogue be lastin'?
|
Askin' or predictin'
|
The quad squad will roll
|
(And continue to kick it wicked)
|
Wicked doubts about the en-v
|
It's envy if you ask me
|
Trying to down Dawn, Maxine, Terry or Cindy
|
Black, beautiful, intelligent
|
Well structured and strong
|
It's gonna be along for ever hold on
|
|
repeat chorus
|
|
(It ain't over)
|
|
So, continuing my flow
|
Goin' back about two years ago
|
Lip-synching was the way to go, though
|
a face to a voice, a voice to a face
|
All the real talent was just going to waste
|
|
The word was out
|
A talent-search was on
|
Auditioned with ambition
|
A vision
|
En Vogue was born
|
To sing, the essential ingredients mended
|
Four individuals perfectly blended
|
Strong mind, positive, attitude is a must
|
Group trust
|
Eliminated the outside rush
|
Using lies as alibis to get to us it's strange
|
Negative attenion you gain in the world while you entertain
|
Stuck up - of course not
|
Just the knives in our back
|
Those coming from behind on a publicity attack
|
Not easy duplicating the four
|
There's a lot more in store
|
Until the fat lady roars
|
|
repeat chorus
|
|
People wonder if we're rich
|
I'll tell you this
|
More money now than before the music hit
|
And our hair, of course it's real
|
We just jazz it up a bit for the sex appeal
|
And no we don't lip-synch
|
It's all from the heart
|
2 Tuff-Enuff Productions put us on the charts
|
A few answers I thought I should give
|
For the minds who enquire how the En Vogue lives
|
Born to sing, and we proved it
|
A gift from the man above
|
Peace to our fans, and to competitors
|
One love
|
Sorry, not in it for the competition status-quo
|
Our only perspective is to grow
|
And to blow, ya know
|
In house, in reggae, in rock, En Vogue
|
Stylin' profilin' sippin' coke with a smile
|
2 Tuff funk it, pump it, hip-hop jump it
|
Now En Vogue's comin' versatile
|
|
(Shoo wop shoo wop)
|
|
repeat chorus
|
|
(It ain't over)
|
(Got a long way to go)
|
|
repeat chorus until fade-out
|
