[00:00.00]Verse one：phife dawg
[00:10.66]1988 senior year, garvey high
[00:13.19]Where all the guys were corny but the girls were mad fly
[00:15.70]Loungin with the tipster, coolin with sha
[00:18.23]Scopin out the honeys - they know who they are
[00:20.74]I was the b-ball playin fly rhyme sayin
[00:23.25]Fly girl gettin but never was i sweatin
[00:26.01]Cause when it came to honeys i would go on a stroll
[00:28.51]Until i met my match - her name was flo
[00:31.27]Yeah - i messed around with the one called flo
[00:33.54]All the troopers round the way used to call her a ho
[00:36.05]But deep down in my heart i knew that flo was good to go
[00:39.07]Cause i thought it was me - like bell biv devoe
[00:41.58]But little did i know that she was playin' with my mind
[00:44.35]The only thing i learned is, good girls are hard to find
[00:46.86]I feel like heavy d i need somebody for me
[00:49.12]Not someone who's mind is blank and tryin' to juice me for my bank
[00:52.13]Swingin' with my main man lucky behind my back
[00:54.64]What type of crap is that - yo, hows about a smack?
[00:57.14]Word life, i can't front - thought i was all that
[00:59.90]But now it seems, i met my match
[01:02.17]Was a stone cold lover, you couldn't tell me jack
[01:05.19]Settlin' down with one girl, wasn't tryin' to hear that
[01:07.44]I had tonya, tamika, sharon, karen
[01:10.21]Tina, stacy, julie, tracy
[01:12.80]Used ta love 'em, leave 'em, skeeze 'em, tease 'em
[01:15.57]Find 'em, lose 'em - also abuse 'em
[01:18.08]My whole attitude was new day, next hon
[01:20.60]And believe it or not, they all got done
[01:23.10]Well here comes flo, with the crazy whip appeal
[01:25.87]And i'm all true man, like alexander o'neal
[01:28.37]Is this really love, then again, how would i know
[01:31.13]After all this time tryin' to be a superhoe
[01:33.64]She finally played me, but yo, i'd find another
[01:36.41]Cause i got the crazy game and yo, i'm smooth like butter
[01:38.67]Chorus: q-tip
[01:38.92]Butter, like butter baby . . .
[01:54.48]Not no parkay, not no margarine,
[01:57.00]Strickly butter baby, strictly butter
[01:59.03]Verse two: phife dawg
[01:59.28]I remember when,
[01:59.75]Girls were goodie two shoes, but now they turned to freaks
[02:02.26]Allofasudden "we love you phife" - ease of ho, my name's malik
[02:04.78]Phife this, phife that, where you goin', where you at
[02:07.28]These girls don't know me from jack, yet i feel like the mack
[02:09.79]You didn't want me then, so hon, don't want me now
[02:12.55]Here, here - take the towel, wipe off your brow
[02:15.07]And take the ccontact out your eye, you're far from lookin' fly
[02:17.83]You get an e for effort, and t for nice try
[02:20.61]Now tell me what's the reason, for dyin' your hair
[02:22.86]Slum village gold still danglin in your ear
[02:25.62]You barely have a neck but still sportin' a rope
[02:28.14]Four-finger ring just so phifer can scope
[02:30.65]You looked in the mirror, didn't know what to do
[02:33.41]Yesterday your eyes were brown but today they are blue
[02:35.92]Your whole appearance is a lie and it could never be true
[02:38.68]And if you really loved yourself then you would try and be you
[02:40.94]If your hair and eyes were real, i wouldn't have dissed ya
[02:43.96]But since it was bought, i had to dismiss ya
[02:46.47]If you can't achieve it, then why not try and weave it
[02:49.24]If you can't extend it then you might as well suspend it
[02:51.76]If you can't braid it, best thing to do is fade it
[02:54.52]I asked who did your hair and you tell me "diane made it"
[02:56.82]If you were you and just you, talk to you, maybe
[02:59.58]But i can't stand, no bionic lady
[03:02.09]Tryin' hard to look fly, but yo, you're lookin' dumber
[03:04.85]If i wanted someone like you i woulda swung with jamie summers
[03:07.36]You wanna be treated right, see father mc
[03:09.87]Or check ralph tresvant, for sens-a-tiv-i-ty
[03:12.63]See i am not the one, i got more game than parker brothers
[03:15.27]Phife dog is on the mic and i'm smooth like butter . . .
