La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la, la, la, doo, da

Do, da, doo, da

How can I express to you the joy I felt

When I realized that I had found the perfect man for me?

The man who could make me feel all

The things I felt a woman should feel

I said, "Darling, I want to be the perfect woman for you"

I got myself a three-year subscription to Essence magazine

Read it from cover to cover

You know I wanted to be perfect for him

I said, "Black is beautiful, just keep gettin' up

Together we can make it, it's gon' be alright

Forget 'bout what society says is or isn't

Or what can or cannot be, keep gettin' up"

He quit his job

Came home one day with 14 mirrors

Some Afro Sheen, some Afro Clean

Some Afro Fluid, some Afro Do-it-to-it

Gon' sit up in the room and look at the black beautiful

Check out the boy, mother's love, mother's love

I said, "Well, my darling, I hate to get in your business

You know what I mean, but, uh

I mean, what 'bout a job?

I mean, what 'bout the gas and the electricity and, and

Well, not that I am equating a job with your manhood, you understand

But I mean, you did have a choice in this"

He said, "I got to get myself together

I'm tired of workin' for somebody else

I maybe, uh, take out a small businessman's loan

And open up a head shop"

I said, "But that's not bringin' no money in, I mean"

He said, "You're workin', ain't ya? Get off my back"

I don't know, I, I, you see I wasn't raised like that, y'all

I mean I figure if I got to get up and go to work every day

Then, uh, every able body in the household's

Supposed to get up and go

At least lookin', I know it ain't easy out there, but uh

I said, "now, if for some reason

You feel that you can no longer be

The man that I thought you were

At the beginning of our relationship

Then I got this one thing to lay on you, my sweet"

Why don't you just go away, little boy?

You see, I am not supposed to sit up here alone in the dark

With some mirrors and no money and no you

Oh, I know, I understand

I recognize the fact that your lips

But it don't look like our lips

Shame we'll never have another chance to meet

I think I can find myself another man

And I know what to do when

I got somebody who can be true

So why don't you run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run away, little boy?

Let the doorknob hit you where

The dog shoulda bit you, little boy

'Cause you're hurting me more

Every minute that you delay, hey, hey

'Cause when you need me like this, whoa baby

You're getting kinda hard for me to understand

So my man, just go on away, just go

On away, just go on away, little boy

Before I do something rash

Whoa, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, little boy

Find yourself another set of apron strings, little boy

'Cause you're hurting me more

Every minute that you delay, ooh, hey, hey

Oh, when you need me, when you need me

When you need me, when you need me

When you are close up tight like this

You're getting just a little bit too hard for me to resist

So why don't you go on away, little boy

Why don't you just leave me alone

You know what I mean?

Go ahead and take your things with you

Yes, your albums and all them Playboy magazines

And just go on, get out my life

Now don't stand so close to me

When you try to get that last goodbye kiss

I know your moves now

And what the-, don't you come in like that

And don't, don't kiss my eyelids like that

And please don't suck my earlobes like that

And don't, no, no, don't, don't

Well look, uh, you think you can get a job by Thursday?

You promise? Now you ain't gon' fool me this time

Then you might as well stay, stay

Might as well stay, don't go away

You can be my man one more time

And this time I'm gon' try harder too, sweet baby

This time I'm gon' be sweeter
