Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
[Verse 1]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Honey, check it out, you got me mesmerized
Cm G#
With your black hair and your fatass thighs
F#sus2 B/E
Street poetry is my everyday
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
But yo, I gotta stop when you trot my way
Cm G#
If I was workin' at the club, you would not pay
F#sus2 B/E
Ayo, my man Phife Diggy, he got somethin' to say
[Verse 2]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
I like 'em brown, yellow, Puerto Rican or Haitian
Cm G#
Name is Phife Dawg from the Zulu Nation
F#sus2 B/E
Told you in the jam that we can get down
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Now let's knock the boots like the group HTown
Cm G#
You got BBD all on your bedroom wall
F#sus2 B/E
But I'm above the rim and this is how I ball
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
A gritty little somethin' on the New York street
Cm G#
This is how I represent over this here beat
F#sus2
Talkin' 'bout you
B/E
yo, I took you out
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
But sex was on my mind for the whole damn route
Cm G#
My mind was in a frenzy and a horny state
F#sus2 B/E
But I couldn't drop dimes 'cause you couldn't relate
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
You couldn't relate
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
You couldn't relate
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
[Verse 3]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Stretch out your legs, let me make you bawl
Cm G#
Drive you insane, drive you up the wall
F#sus2 B/E
Starin' at your domepiece, very strong
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Stronger than pride, stronger than Teflon
Cm G#
Take you on the Ave and you buy me links
F#sus2 B/E
Now I wanna pound the poontang until it stinks
[Verse 4]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
You can be my mama and I'll be your boy
Cm G#
Original rude boy, never am I coy
F#sus2 B/E
You can be a shorty in my ill convoy
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Not to come across as a thug or a hood
Cm G#
But hun, you got the goods like Madelyne Woods
F#sus2 B/E
By the way, my name's Malik, the FiveFoot Freak
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Let's say we get together by the end of the week?
Cm G#
She simply said, "No," labeled me a ho
F#sus2 B/E
I said, "How you figure?" "My friends told me so"
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
I hate when silly groupies wanna run they yap
Cm G#
Word to God, hun, I don't get down like that
F#sus2 B/E
I'll have you weak in the knees that you could hardly speak
[Verse 5]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Or we could do like Uncle L and swing an ep' in my Jeep
Cm G#
Keep it on the down, yo, we keep it discreet
F#sus2 B/E
See, I'm not the type of kid to have my biz in the streets
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
If my mom don't approve, then I'll just elope
Cm G#
Let me save the little man from inside the boat
F#sus2 B/E
Let me hit it from the back, girl, I won't catch a hernia
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Bust off on your couch, now you got Seaman's Furniture
Cm G#
Shaheed, Phife, and the Extra P
F#sus2 B/E
Stacy Beadle, PJ, and my man LG
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
They know the Abstract is really soul on ice
Cm G#
The character is of men, never ever of mice
F#sus2 B/E
Shorty, let me tell you 'bout my only vice
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
It has to do with lots of lovin' and it ain't nothin' nice
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
it ain't nothin' nice
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
it ain't nothin' nice
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Bmaj7 A#7sus4
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
Cm G#
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
F#sus2 B/E
Relax yourself, girl, please settle down
