Me and eric b was coolin at the paladium
Seen a all-world covered girl, I said hey lady im
Sorry if youre in a rush - dont let me hold ya up
Or interveen or interrupt, but. . .
You got the look - I wanna get to know ya better
I had to let her know - but yo, I didnt sweat her
cause if you woulda seen what I was seein
Almost looked korean, but european.
When she spoke, her accent was self-explanatory -
Even her body language told the story
Her name was mahogony - twins name was ebony
I said my name is ra - and this is eric b
Since the music was loud, I said lets take a walk,
So we could talk and see new york.
Show time doesnt start until one oclock
And once I entered your mind I wouldnt wanna stop
Caressin ya thoughts till we was thinkin the same
Calm ya nerves, massage ya brain
Each mic is a mineral, poetrys protein
Verse is a vitamin - affects like codine
So tell me how you feel and Ill reveal
A pill thatll heal ya pain - cause Im real
She musta odd cause she couldnt resist
She spoke slowly when she told me this, she said
Over me, shes goin crazy
Shell rub me on my chest and call me mr. ***y
She said shed have my kids and help me make my next g
Tell me I aint finesse mahogony . . .
So I prescribed her, something to revive
And surprise her, shes liver and much more wiser
Than the light I shine when my brain cells spark,
Come to me so we can glow in the dark
And soon, you can represent the moon
As long as I keep ya in tune
Ill tell ya who ya are and why ya here
Take it in stride cause it might take a year
Its funny - how time flies when ya havin fun
We got close and it was almost one
She kissed me slow, but you know how far a kiss can go
F*ck around and miss the show
So I told her to hold that thought real tight
We can finish where we left off later on tonite
Back to the scene of the crime on time
As they introduced the fiend of the rhyme
She stood with a birds-eye view of me
Thinkin of later on of what she would do to me
The back of the room I could see her eyes gloom
Patient, but hopin that the show was over soon
As the place was ripped in half, she made her way to the front row
So I said lets go
I packed my mic as they screamed for an encore
The speakers were blown, plus my mic was sore
Besides I got places to go, ladies to see
And she could tell me how crazy she was over me
We drove off - she said she liked the way that I performed
And couldnt wait to get soft and warm, I said,
Ive been watchin you, watchin me
Looks I received made it hard to mc
I can take a hint, so I knew that she
Wanted my agony agony ag-on-y in her bod-y
Showed her some sights, then I took her to the condo
She was pipin hot, but I kept my calm so
She asked how come I dont smile
I said, everythings fine, but Im in a new york state of mind!
As we reached the kingdom, she said bring some
Champagne, shell entertain then sing some
Sentimental, songs real gentle,
It hit the spot and you know where it went to
As we embraced I felt her heart pumpin
I knew she was in the mood for somethin
So I laid on my back and relaxed
It wasnt the perignon that made her collaspe
Over me
Over me, shes goin crazy
Shell rub me on my chest and call me mr. ***y
She said shed have my kids and help me make my next g
Tell me I aint finesse mahogony . .
