I'm a recovering undercover over-lover
|
recovering from a love I can't get over
|
recovering undercover over-lover
|
and now my common law lover thinks he wants another
|
|
And I'd lie for you
|
I'd cry for you
|
and pop for you
|
and break for you
|
and hate for you
|
And I'll hate you too
|
If you want me too
|
Ah, Uuu...
|
I'd pray for you
|
crochet for you
|
Make it from scratch for you
|
Leave out the last for you
|
Go to the store for you
|
Do it some more for you
|
Do what you want me to
|
Yes I'm a fool for you...
|
|
I'm a recovering undercover over-lover
|
recovering from a love I can't get over
|
(I) recovering undercover over-lover
|
And now my common law lover thinks he wants another
|
|
And I'd lie for you
|
and cry for you
|
and pop for you
|
and break for you
|
and hate for you
|
and I'll hate you too
|
If you want me too
|
I gotta do my love for you
|
chopped and screwed for you
|
Pay the rent for you
|
It's true it's true
|
Poor Badu
|
Thought I was through with you
|
Guess I'm a fool for you...
|
|
Could this be
|
Love from high
|
New frontier
|
Whose this guy
|
Your so wise
|
I'm so good
|
Like summertime
|
You'd had it all
|
Build a wall
|
Ten feet tall
|
Now I laugh at it all
|
Out my mind
|
Just in time
|
Never knew...
|
I was blind
|
What it through
|
I can't see there
|
Mama say
|
Let there be
|
Easily
|
Said and done
|
I can't feel
|
I am numb
|
Bitter dream
|
Fruit so raw
|
Winter cold
|
Let me out
|
I know you
|
Do you hear me
|
|
Out my mind,
|
just in time
|
|
Oho I...
|
Oho I...
|
Oho I...
|
Oho I...
|
Yeah
|
Man...
|
This This
|
I'm so addicted
|
I can't quit
|
Oh
|
I follow this, Yeah.
|
It's time for me to make some steps
|
Easy to blame somebody else
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
But not this time...
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
But not this time...
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
20 feet out of ashes I can rise
|
Just like birds and children
|
I can fly
|
And I'll take my phoenix flight
|
And you can't take mine
|
but you can try, ah no
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this time
|
But not this
|
No
|
But not this time...
|
But not this time
|
But not this

No

But not this time

But not this time

But not this time

But not this
|
Hey
|
On and on
|
I seem to go
|
Round and round I seem to go
|
always had the antidote
|
looking for the Holy Ghost
|
Found him in the missing note
|
sinking in a holy boat
|
Round and round
|
I seem to go
|
Round and round...(round)...and round
|
Oho I ...
|
Oho I...
|
Oho I...
|
Yeah,
|
guess it's time to grab a coat
|
evolution time to grow
|
Ego trying to block the door
|
Might not have nowhere to go
|
I finally got a leading role
|
introducing super dope
|
Staring in her episode
|
Hello, new world
|
out my mind.
