Gettin’ Up Lyrics

[Intro: Q-Tip]
Gettin' up
Come on, we gettin' up
Come on, we gettin' up
Ugh, yeah
(*scatting*)
Ugh

[Verse 1: Q-Tip]
Sent you a message, sent you a email
Hasty decisions we made still prevail
Both needed breaks, we both needed to bail
Walking through the corridors of my mind
The hideaways and nooks and things with good times
Memories, certainly, yes, they still bind
Still a common man, and yeah, that's for sure
Still a bankroll, and yeah, still couture
But, man, this thing we had was much more
Come back home, don't be out in the world
It's a bad place and no place for a girl
Amongst the scavengers, I found a pretty pearl
It's for the faint of heart who never get enough
Gotta get tough, buckle em up, we call 'em duds
And we, and we, and we, ahhh! (Ugh, ugh)

[Hook: Q-Tip]
We got the gettin up, we got the gettin up
Today is nice, come on, ayo, we gon' gettin up
Said we gettin up, said we gettin up
Tonight is right, come on, we gon' gettin up
I said we gettin up, I said we gettin up, come on

[Verse 2: Q-Tip]
Come over here, baby, don't look so grumpy
This kind of lifestyle could be so comfy
We can start a clan just like the Kennedys
You and I again, certainly, we can expand
Feelings that should never end, you respect me like a friend (Mm)
But love me like your man, no other could contend
And we could be like those exposed to history
Like staying with each other with truth and chivalry
The things we go through, they shape our identity
Mm, yes, pretty, let's do this all night
Consummate this thing and make it alright
And when we cuddle up, I promise that I'll bite (Ugh, ugh)

[Hook: Q-Tip]
We got the gettin up, come on, we got the gettin up
Today is nice, come on, ayo, we gon' gettin up
I said we gettin up, I said we gettin up
Come on, we gettin up, I said we gettin up
Tonight is right, come on, we gon' gettin up
I said we gettin up, I said we gettin up

[Verse 3: Q-Tip]
I like to watch everybody gravitate towards you
Your magnetic presences make them come through
The same way you got them, you got me, too
Now look at our lives, are so colorful
A wonderful spectrum, not one-tone, dull
Full of excitement and not one lull
See, we had an understanding, oh, yes, we did
I'm bringing it back, I'm puttin in my bid
Have a couple of kids and have a couple of cribs (Ugh)
We like Ruby Dee and Ossie, Martin and Coretta
Doin it to death, no one can do it better
When we leave our physical, our sprits still together
So, come on now, here's a placement for your hand
You rockin with the number-one MC man
The number-one controller of right with the plan (Ugh, ugh)

[Hook: Q-Tip]
I said we gettin up, we got the gettin up
Today is nice, come on, we gon' gettin up
I said we gettin up, said we gettin up
I said we gettin up, come on we gettin up
Tonight is right, come on, we gon' gettin up
Said we gettin up, said we gettin up
I said we gettin up, come on we gettin up
Today is nice, come on, we gon' gettin up
I said we gettin up, said we gettin up
I said we gettin up, come on we gettin up
Tonight is right, come on, we gon' gettin up
Said we gettin up, said we gettin up
