[Intro]
Uh, Flipped It Mix
Might be cool
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly, certainly not me
[Pre-Chorus]
I was not looking for no love affair, baby
(And now you wanna fix me)
Was not looking for no love affair, honey
(And now you want to mold me)
I was not looking for no love affair, baby
(Now you wanna kiss me)
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna control me)
Hold me
I know you're trying to get creative with my love
And that's alright, but you tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back and then you slipped me a mickey
[Chorus]
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (I wasn't ready)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (For that mickey, baby)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Oh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
[Post-Chorus]
The world is mine when I wake up (When I wake up)
I don't need nobody tellin' me the time, ooh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me — no way, no
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly, certainly not me
[Pre-Chorus]
I was not looking for no love affair, potna
(And now you wanna fix me)
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you want to mold me)
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna kiss me)
I was not looking for no love affair, ha, ow
(And now you wanna control me)
Hold me
I know you're trying to get creative with my love
And that's real cute, but you tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back and then you slipped me a mickey
[Chorus]
Certainly, certainly (Oh), certainly not me (Oo)
Certainly, certainly (Oh), certainly not me (Oh, oh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, you know that the world is mine when I wake up
(When I wake up)
I don't need nobody tellin' me the time, no
The world is mine, mine, mine, mine (When I wake up)
I don't need no nigga rollin' over looking after me
[Outro]
No no, no no
No no, no no
No no, no no
No no no no no no no no no
Oh no, oh no, oh
I don't need, I don't need, no
No no, no no
No no no no no no no, no, whoa
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Oh
(And then you slipped me a mickey) You know I wasn't ready
(And then you slipped me a mickey) 'Cause I admitted, baby
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Baby
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Oh
(And then you slipped me a mickey) No no no
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Yeah
(And then you slipped me a mickey)
(And then you slipped me a mickey) No no
Oh, oh no, no no no no no no no no, oh
Oh, oh no, oh, hey
Love affair, love affair, was not looking for no love affair, no
No, oh
Oh, oh, no no, no no (Certainly not me)
Ow, hmm
