Eric B. & Rakim

Eric B. & Rakim - Mahogany lyrics

Your rating:
Me and Eric B was coolin' at the Paladium
 Seen a all world covered girl  I said "Hey lady I'm
 Sorry if You're in a rush   Don't 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 didn't 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 - twin's name was Ebony
 I said "My name is Ra - and this is Eric B"
 Since the music was loud, I said "let's take a walk,
 So we could talk and see New York.
 Show time doesn't start until one o'clock
 And once I entered your mind I wouldn't wanna stop
 Caressin' ya thoughts till we was thinkin' the same
 Calm ya nerves, massage ya brain
 Each mic is a mineral, poetry's protein
 Verse is a vitamin - Affects like Codine
 So tell me how you feel and I'll reveal
 A pill that'll heal ya pain - 'cause I'm real
 She musta OD'd 'cause she couldn't resist
 She spoke slowly when she told me this, she said

 Chorus:

 Over Me, She's goin' crazy
 She'll rub me on my chest and call me Mr. Sexy
 She said she'd have my kids and help me make my next G
 Tell me I ain't finesse Mahogony . . .


 Verse Two:

 So I prescribed her, something to revive
 And surprise her, she's 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
 I'll tell ya who ya are and why ya here
 Take it in stride 'cause it might take a year
 It's 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 "let's 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 couldn't wait to get 'soft and warm', I said,
 "I've 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 don't smile
 I said, "Everything's fine, but I'm in a New York state of mind!"
 As we reached the kingdom, she said bring some
 Champagne, she'll 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 wasn't the Perignon that made her collaspe
 Over me
