Missunderstanding (As Sure As Monie’s in the Middle Mix)

[Intro: Al B. Sure]
(Al) Yo, that's me
I'm in here, G
Word up, and the whole nine
Dance to my remix single, ha ha ha
I let you play your hand, money
Kinda milky silky
(Missunderstanding, I'm not—)
Yeah, G, you know what time it is
Monie!

[Verse 1: Monie Love, Al B. Sure]
To be or not to be, that is the question
Al B., are you sure about your true inner intentions? (Yep)
If so, let me know and I'ma do the best I can
To bring this funky, funky rhyme to every woman and man
Pardon me y'all but Monie Monie Mo would like to know
If I can pump the arm with the style on which I flow (Yep)
Do I have your permission to rock the ground on which I'm standin'?
I thought so, guess it's just a misunderstanding

[Refrain: Al B. Sure]
(Al B., she misunderstood you)
Never will you play with my heart
(I'll house you) (Hey)
(Al B., she misunderstood you)
Never will you tear me apart
(Break it on down)

[Verse 2: Al B. Sure]
I know I must be dreaming, all these brand new friends
And I've never seen such clever ways to make amends
You never know who's scheming - is she out for self?
Nowadays you've gotta be protective and it's not for health
Don't you know she drives me crazy? Does she like my walk?
Or maybe all she knows is that the money talks
(Money, money, money, money)
It's a shame the way it is, I really like her smile
I'd like to get to know her 'cause she drives me wild

[Pre-Chorus: Al B. Sure]
(Can you tell me why)
You need diamonds, you need pearls
(And I gotta buy 'em) Oh, I gotta buy 'em
(Don't you know) Don't you know
(To be my lady) To be my lady
(Drive my Mercedes) Drive my Mercedes
(Try giving me that lovin') Hey

[Chorus: Monie Love, Al B. Sure]
Sure is in the middle (Where I'm at?)
In the middle, yep (Oh yeah)
Sure is in the middle (Where I go?)
In the middle
Sure is in the middle (Here we go)
In the middle
Go Sure, Sure, what is he? (In the middle)
Sure is in the middle (Where I'm at?)
In the middle, yep (Oh yeah)
Sure is in the middle (Where I go?)
In the middle
Sure is in the middle (Here we go)
In the middle
Go Sure, Sure, what is he? (In the middle)

[Post-Chorus: Al B. Sure]
(Al B.) Freak daddy

[Verse 3: Al B. Sure]
Can't you read between the lines? I never go for self
Should I try to sleep the lady and misuse my wealth?
I don't know, the times have changed, I can't sell out
I grew up doing right and I won't throw it out

[Pre-Chorus: Al B. Sure]
(Can you tell me why)
Oh, you need diamonds, you need pearls
(And I gotta buy 'em) Oh, I gotta buy 'em
(Don't you know) Don't you know
(To be my lady) To be my lady
(Drive my Mercedes) Drive my Mercedes
(Try giving me that lovin') Hey

[Chorus: Al B. Sure]
Missunderstanding, I'm not so demanding (Uh-huh)
Never will you play with my heart
(Never will you play with my heart)
Missunderstanding, I don't know what you're planning (Uh-huh)
Never will you tear me apart

[Verse 4: Monie Love, Al B. Sure]
Honey, don't misunderstand me, I'm attracted to you
I'll be there when you want me to, I'll do anything for you
But you know I'm not slidin', slippin' or trippin'
Over the hurdles of gettin' hurt, I'm hip
And if you really wanna know, I've been dogged a couple times
That's why from now on I makin' sure I get mine
Definition for Monie Love, self-preservation
You wanna play some mind games, make a reservation
No more will I play with your heart? Well, that's funny
'Cause usually it's mine that gets played for Silly Putty
Listen mister, I'm just taking precautions, you know what I'm sayin'?
'Cause I don't know if what you say is true or if you're playin'
Brothers try to play me so bad, it's like this
If they were on fire, I wouldn't even...
And I made the decision to never get jerked
And that there motion is definitely workin'
Don't be afraid 'cause I might house you
Don't be afraid 'cause I might house you
That's impossible 'cause I'm un-houseable

[Bridge: Al B. Sure, Monie Love]
(Al B., she misunderstood you) Oh
I'm with this
South London meets New York
(Al B., she misunderstood you)
Know what I'm sayin'? Here we go
Monie, baby (What?)
(Don't be afraid 'cause I might house you)
Tell 'em where you're at

[Chorus: Monie Love, Al B. Sure]
Monie in the middle (Where you at?)
In the middle, yep (Uh-huh)
Monie in the middle (Where she at?)
In the middle
Monie in the middle (Where you at, baby?)
In the middle
Go Mo' (Mo'), Mo' (Mo'), Monie in the middle (Hey)
Sure is in the middle (Where I'm at?)
In the middle, yep (Oh yeah)
Sure is in the middle (Where I go?)
In the middle
Sure is in the middle (Here we go)
In the middle
Go Sure, Sure, what is he? (In the middle) (Hey)

(Al) (Don't be afraid) (Al, Al)
Uh, you a bad sista, you know that, right?
I can dig it (Hey)
(Missunderstanding)
(Missunderstanding)
You're definitely a lady, yo, you know what I'm sayin'?
And fine like a m..., sing it

[Chorus: Al B. Sure]
Missunderstanding, I'm not so demanding
Never will you play with my heart
(Ah yeah, huh, I'm with this)
Missunderstanding, I don't know what you're planning (Come get this)
Never will you tear me apart (See ya)

[Outro: Al B. Sure]
Missunderstanding, I'm not so demanding
Never will you play with my heart
(Al B., she misunderstood you)
Never will you tear me apart
(Al B., Al B., Al B., she misunderstood you)
Missunderstanding, I'm not so demanding
Never will you play with my heart
(Al, Al, Al)
Never will you tear me apart
(Al B., she misunderstood you)
