[Intro]
You think you know
But you have no idea
I hope you ready
[Bridge]
You say you a gangsta, keep sayin' you a gangsta
Really think you a gangsta, don't you?
Think you can have your cake and eat it too?
Sweetie, that don't make you gangsta
I'mma put it on you and I'm through
Watch me show you, "gangsta"
[Verse 1]
Any other night, I'll be watching SportsCenter (with you)
Ponytail with my (slippers)
Pro'bly calling your phone asking when you coming home
Fed up with the lies and the (slip-ups)
But tonight I'mma (pick up)
Something sexy on, do you like a (pimp does)
Cooking dinner with my four-inch (highs)
Rocking a (pearly)
Treat you like a king and (spoil you)
[Pre-Hook]
What you want (I'll do it)
And what you need (I'll prove it)
I'mma be your sweet thing just for the evening
(But don't get too used to it)
Cause I'm coming to cut you off
(This'll be the last time I break you off)
Bet you won't know that you lost a good thing till it's gone
[Hook]
Tonight, I'll be your waitress, your mistress
[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]
Dancer, your doctor
[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]
I'll switch it up
Make you want more when I switch it up
Show you what shows when I switch it up
Watch me sw-sw-switch it (sw-switch it)
Lover, your mother
[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]
Temporary secretary
[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]
Yeah, I'll switch it up
Make you want more when I switch it up
But it ain't yours cause I switch it up
Boy, I'm switchin', switchin' up
[Verse 2]
Any other time, I would be pissed (off)
X-in' out yo' (cards)
Scratchin' up yo' car from the back to the front
I just got your hun name on your (front door)
But tonight I'll be Latisha
That chick that you had up in my (Beamer)
Everything you ain't see in me when you felt you had to cheat
Tonight, I'mma (be her)
[Pre-Hook]
Boy, what you want (I'll do it)
What you need (I'll prove it)
I'mma be your sweet thing just for the evening, uh
(But don't get too used to it)
Cause I'm coming to cut you off
(This'll be the last time I break you off)
Then you gon' find you lost a good one when I'm gone
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
No more cryin' (no more tryin')
I don't like it (so I decided)
I'mma leave you something so that you can remember me
Gon' be so sick of me (you'll be M-Y-A's fiend)
And we gon' change (so I) switch up my game (and I)
Took a look in the mirror and said (Mya, you can't stay)
Left a scent on your pillow, torn pictures in the window
(Keys to the 6-double-O) Changed the number to my cell phone
So you can't call me no more!

[Bridge 2]
You said you was gangsta, kept sayin' you was gangsta
Really thought you was gangsta, now look at you
Now you cryin' in my driveway, knockin' at my door
All crazy, can't reach me cause I switched my phone
Caught up wit' ya, now you know better
Never ever mess wit' a gangsta
