“Undercover” is the fourth track on The Cassette Tape 1994 and samples Bell Biv Devoe’s classic 1990 single, “Poison”. In this song, Teyana is singing about keeping up an ongoing affair with her ex, even though he has a new girlfriend.
[Intro Skit]
Teyana, answer the damn phone! I know you probably over there with his stankin' ass. I don't even know why you still love him, he ain't nothin' but a scumbag. Call me back, you trippin'
[Verse 1]
I don't know why I still love you
I know it's not right, but I still want you
[Pre-Chorus]
She don't give you what you need
That's why you run back to me
Can't nobody do the things that I can do
Every time we walk away, things just stay complicated
That's why I ain't asking you to choose
[Chorus]
I know that you belong to her, yet I'm still your lover
We both know this could never work, let's stay undercover
Undercover, under, undercover
Undercover, under, undercover
[Verse 2]
She has no clue about us
If she only knew, then it would be over, then we would be closer
[Pre-Chorus]
She don't give you what you need
That's why you run back to me
Can't nobody do the things that I can do
Every time we walk away, things just stay complicated
That's why I ain't asking you to choose
[Chorus]
I know that you belong to her, yet I'm still your lover
We both know this could never work, let's stay undercover
Undercover, under, undercover
Undercover, under, undercover
