(feat. Slick Rick)



[Slick Rick talking with "kids"]

[Kid 1] I'm tired

[Kid 2] Me too

[Kid 1] Uncle Ricky

[SR] Hmmm?

[Kid 1] Could you tell us a bedtime story, like you used to?

[SR] Look, don't y'all think y'all too old for that now?

[Kids] No

[SR] Listen, I got an adult question for y'all since y'all

like...11 now. Y'all ever get horny?

[Kid 1] Uncle Ricky!

[SR] Now I don't mean to sound perverted, but do you ever

have like sexual urges?

Kids - No!

[SR] No? Well you will, so sit your behind down and listen to

Uncle Ricky...and De La...tell y'all a grown up story

[Kids] Okay



[Dove]

I remember when Mama spoke of the birds and

The east side kept me off the curb and

Betsy Ross was sufferin from the scaredy cat

Till my man Ricky brought the remedy for that



[Slick Rick]

I massage your mane, coat

Then part your leg's rope

And stroke so hard you'll start to smell smoke



[Posdnuos]

Ain't gotta drug problem but a love problem

But then again that may be one in the same

I claim possession

Pull the girl among the eighth like Charlie Heston

Ride off on the horse and show no remorse



[Slick Rick]

She look niiice

Honey oriental, brown eyes

Want friiiies?

Chicken, vegetable, fried rice

And I'm tryin to [get] you to go

Fast subtraction, grab some

"Oh don't stop nasty black man"



[Dove]

Man that action had me coughin up cars, keys, and cash

Just to sniff a fat rabbit I would give my very last



[Chorus (Slick Rick)]

(When nature calls)

You know them boys will come runnin

(When nature calls)

You know them girls don't mind comin

(When nature calls)

You know them boys will come runnin

(When nature calls)

You know them girls don't mind comin

Just to get it started, for startin something

Is what we do to get some lovin

What we do to get some lovin

This what we do for love (do for love)

This what we do for love (for love)

This what we do for love



[Dove]

You ain't lyin, I

I 9-5 it, more like 12-12

Can't get the thought off (sex)

From off my mental shelf



[Slick Rick]

I'm like Bruce Lee

Beatin up the cootchie profusely

My tomboy chicks that act a little to butchy

Recieve this (uh)

When my semen ceases

They'll be screamin out, "We love bein the female species"



[Phone dialing]

Hello?

Veronica, it's Dove.

Uh, I think you got the wrong number

What?

Veronica, your baby's crying.

Yo, chill

Baby?

Whatever yo, later.



[Dove]

For the past two summers I been sizin up Veronica

Southern belle, I heard she blow notes like a harmonica

Yamacas couldn't satisfy her spendin fetishes

She was all about gettin the head like she was lettuces



[Posdnuos]

Yah, them types be actin like they ain't sleazy



[Slick Rick]

Like this uptown chick playin opposite of easy

Delighted, the honey fly difficult, couldn't knife it

Tiiight

Seen the imprint on honey's private

Now she's love sick

Ruler Rick scoress agaaaaain



[Posdnuos]

Sex present itself like trophies I'm out to win

And it's easier to claim with the fame I've obtained

Her mommy was a liar, she's so ashamed



[Chorus]



[Slick Rick]

Well, I got this rude boy Jamaican honey at the rest home

Complete with yellow hair and Cinderella dress on

Whatever

Been around, stuck her till she poppin bout

"Hey take your blood clot finger off me bottom"

Anyway, another dime I met one time

I'm kiiind, chick in the world, butt fine

And her, structure pumpin, told her

Gotcha mumblin bout

"Slow down, what you tryin to rupture somethin?"



[Posdnuos]

I don't bug out, I chill

Never copped a feel

But these pretty ass girls come and flaunt in the grill

Big ass eyes, with the matchin big ass thighs

Asked her if she spare a moment to exchange some lies

"But you got a girlfriend"



[Slick Rick]

Yah trick, so do you

And I heard there's no preference in what gender ya do



[Posdnuos]

So stop playin so squeaky clean

And let the dirty side see me later

So we can play 'away from the navy'



[Dove]

So stuck on the love you rearranging behaviors

Second episode, and you returnin oral favors

Buyin up groceries

Searchin for hosiery

Holdin hands publicy

And now you supposed to be

Mr. and Mrs. huh, lovin and kisses huh?

But while you away is when the milkman'll visit her

Dear to the heart, we dearly depart the fallen

So skip the games ma, I stay tuned to the calling



[Chorus x3]
