Nice ‘n’ Steady

Sometimes in life

one must put their smile down

let fire fill the eyes

when your dignity’s challenged

Oh I, got a story for you

 

Today the sun came up

Caught the stench of an evil woman

whose been trying to take my place

trying to give it to my lover

when the lights go down

‘cause she shackled to her Lynchburg taste

she needs more than what she’s got

more than her cheap perfume

that insecure laugh stinks up the room

I told you once, told you twice

So now it shouldn’t be a surprise

When I give it to you

 

Nice ‘n’ steady

 

Oh what I got to give to you

ain’t nothing you can use

when you slither into bed each night

as you close your eyes

not alone, so you fantasize

the moment you turn out the light

 

What you got comin’ more like the back of my hand

You’re the only female I’m wanna … like a man

I told you once, told you twice,

So now it shouldn’t be a surprise

When I give it to you

 

Nice ‘n’ steady

 

I’m gonna give it to you steady

but not so nice

next time you think of sucking

you’d better think twice

about your reputation

and a parasite

 

Only one

gets to be with my girl

Fortunate for me I get to rock that world

But you, better back the front down
