Red Light, Green Light

[Intro]
Yeah
This is going out to all you sidewinders

[Verse 1: Diamond D]
Ayo red light, green light, one, two, three
Girl can you tell me, 'cause I'm not the one to be
Played around with, but I laid around with
A honey who was funny now I'm caught up in a myth
I thought I was in love with a hooker
I wore out my shoes faster than TJ Hooker
Chasing after her, but that's OK
See, she was all that so I started playing Pimp Daddy Mac
But I got stabbed in the back
Just like a scene from an Agatha Christie
I gotta cut it short 'cause I might get misty
See, I thought I was in love
Spending time with the girl
Was all I could think of
But little did I know
That I was in for a win for what I was all in for
Whatever came up 'cause I was blind
Just like Stevie, homeboy believe me
I'm not the first or the last one
(Ay, whatchu talking about?)
Ayo, she tried to pull a fast one
She said she wants to be the only one
But now she's the one who's the lonely one
And that's word to Big Bird

[Hook]
Girl can you tell me 'cause I'm not the one to be (x3)
One, two, three

[Verse 2: Diamond D]
Ayo
And now I'm looking for a cutie at the White Stone
In search of the one that I might bone
I had cash in my pocket and went one deep
And it was worth the time so I wore my shearling sheepskin
Twenty below, ten [?]
Wasn't taking no shit from the bimbos
Yeah, then I saw her
At the concession stand
Mmm, she's all alone
Unless her man
Sent her on a mission, yo that's foul
So I made eye contact, winked and smiled
"Are you here by yourself?"
"Are you blind, do you see somebody else?"
"Listen cutie. There ain't to need to be rash
'cause I walked a mile like my man Johnny Cash."
"See, I just wanna get to know ya
Spend the night on the town, just to show ya
Things will be smooth just like a Range Rover."
"If you say no you can step I won't owe you nothin'"
"But baby, don't ask a diddy
I couldn't care less, even if you had a kiddy."
We left the movie
Everything was groovy
We were conversatin', but the words didn't move me
Waved down a taxi
Then the girl asked me
"Can I come along?"
"Ayo, don't try to gas me!
I know the ropes on the face of high hopes
I had more girls than Tad Martin soaps."
She started bragging 'bout the men she had
Then told me that she couldn't wait to see my pad
And then her beeper went off
I didn't pay it no mind, but it beeped five more times
I should have seen the hint
But I was too focused on my midnight stint

[Hook]
Girl can you tell me, 'cause I'm not the one to be
One, two, three

[Verse 3: Diamond D]
Well then we got to my crib
"Nice place you have."
"Well make yourself comfy
And hey, are you hungry?"
She said no then she sat on the couch
"Do you watch Arsenio?"
"Diamond, I watch any old thing."
"Well we can just cut it off
'cause I'd much rather slip on some soft music."
"So just relax yourself."
"Lay your head back and just max
In fact
If you take my hand, I might be your man, baby."
Then she went for my lips
I said, "Don't take it as a diss, but I don't french kiss."
She just laughed, then got undressed
But I wasn't doing one damn thing, unless
I can find my Jimmy hats
So I looked in the stash I was down to my last one
*whew* That was a close call
Looked at the cutie, hit the light in for the night
The next morning, when we woke up
She said
"Diamond, I'm in love and emotional"
Oh man, that's the raw shit
I said "Wait baby, hold your horses
I just met you last night at the flick
Now you're telling me you wanna be my main chick?
We can be friends, and something might blossom
I'll always stand firm and I won't play opossum."
"Don't try to play me, last night I was your baby"
"So what?"
"And now you wanna slay me"
"Heh
Well it's not your fault that you're very attractive
And from last night I can tell that you're active in bed
But baby, don't play the pockets
'Cause I can squeeze a dollar tighter than Spacely Sprockets."
She took a shower
Fixed her weave
Grabbed her coat, and got lost in the breeze
(Red light, green light, one, two, three)
Should I take the chance on romance?
See I'm in my early twenties
And I gotta little money
And from now it's the same song and dance
Out

[Hook]
Girl can you tell me, 'cause I'm not the one to be
One, two, three
