Woorden: Erykah Badu. Mama's Gun. ... & On.

A one, one, two, one, two

On and on, and on, and on
Wake the fuck up 'cause it's been too long
Say wait a minute, Queen, what's your name
I be that gypsy flippin' life game

From the right brain ascension maintained
Rolling through like a burning flame
Like a super nova star
She be the light when they in the dark

Morning, the moon pass the sun
Four constellations start forming
Across up in the sky
But everybody wanna ask me, why?

What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu
What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu

Said, I'm a Pisces zika deka del
Well, well, I'm raising hell
People always tryin' to find the world I'm in
And I'm the envy of the women, and I rule the men

Two fish, one swimmin' up stream
One swimmin' down livin' in a dream
But when she loves she tends to cling

When incense burns, smoke unfurls
Analog girl in a digital world
The rasta style flower child
Zip dip dow, zip dip dow

The gold tooth smile, split them vowels
Bling bloom, bling, melinated
I'm 'bout ta give birth to church
But everybody want to ask this earth, what?

What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu
What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu

Bridge

I remember when I went with momma to the Washateria
Remember how I felt the day, I first started my period
Remember there in school one day
I learned I was inferior, water in my cereal

Badu in your stereo, holla if you hear me though
Remembering it is good if you don't
Let it be the fear in you
Wrap ya head with this material

?Cause you did not do your math
My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone
Mad props to God Ja Born
Things just ain't the same for singers

Gotta sing on the beat the bring us
But that's all I have ain't got no more
But still the people really wanna to know

What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu
What good do your words do? If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit Badu, Badu
