Oh yeah...
|
|
Love somebo-dy...
|
|
[Al B. Sure! harmonizes]
|
|
[Chorus x2: Al B. Sure!]
|
Love somebo-dy who loves me for me
|
Happy hap-py where I wanna be
|
|
[Heavy D:]
|
I'll search low, and I'll search high
|
Tryin to find myself a cutie pie
|
But destiny leads me to a dead end
|
(love somebo-dy) Over and over and over again
|
They told me to wait, so I waited
|
Anticipated, debatin and delayed it
|
But still came up with the same ol' thing
|
... Nothing! (Nothing, nothing...)
|
It seems as if every time I find a right girl
|
She turns out to be a big wrong girl
|
Tell me y'all, when will this madness stop?
|
(stop, stop, stop, stop...)
|
I want somebody to love me for me
|
Not because I'm MC, Heavy D.
|
I'm looking for a love that's as solid as a rock
|
(rock, rock, rock, rock...)
|
|
[Chorus x2: w/ Heavy D saying "for me"]
|
|
[Heavy D (Al B. Sure!):]
|
Now maybe I'll take a trip around the world
|
And find myself a beautiful, gorgeous girl
|
They say when you look, one never find
|
They also say that love is blind
|
It ain't that blind that I can't see
|
Somebody out there who's perfect for me
|
Somebody who's gonna love me, for me...
|
(I know you want love...)
|
Love, THAT'S what I'm talkin about
|
A relationship, a commitment
|
Something to live for...
|
(Maybe if you take, your time...)
|
Time has been taken and time has been spent
|
Now it's time for the lover to score...
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
[Instrumental for about 17 seconds]
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
Yo, Eddie F. break it down!
|
|
[Instrumental for about 34 seconds as Heavy D ad-libs]
|
|
[Heavy D:]
|
Yeah... aight, here we go
|
So that's the storyline of my life
|
No cutie PIE, no future wife
|
Just relationships that bounce back like rubber...
|
("Yo, word to the mutha!")
|
I guess I'll call it a day and throw my towel in
|
'cause it seems that I can't win
|
So I'll just carry on being an Overweight Lover
|
("Word... to... mutha!")
|
|
[Chorus: until fade]
|
