"Nuff' Of The Ruff' Stuff Lyrics"
Into the Fire Lyrics
...out of the frying pan. Take the trouble to decide the things you do Will not be the things that don't appeal to you See the mess your makin' can't you see your fakin' Gonna make it hard for you, you're gonna--into the fire Turn on the mandrake that was given to you See if you can make it like the others do Feel the blood a knockin' when you're finger poppin'
Get funky with it
[ VERSE 1 ]
I told you before: you burn when you play with fire
So take off your hats, matter of fact hail the new Sire
You're hungry as hell, so i'm cookin up the chowder
It's laced with ingredients, gon' come on like gunpowder
Pom-pom! lick a shot, then I got to order
I'm runnin for the border for causin disorder
Pom-pom! lick a shot, got on my defenses
I'm runnin for the fences, of course I'm relentless
The particular name of this queen is Latifah
I've often been classified as a feminine teacher
Collectively capture the heart of a nation
Love my culture and show appreciation
You're lookin for the black influ'?
I do want too give it to you
What are you mad?
Give me some of what you had!
You can huff-huff, puff

Passing Of The Grey Company Lyrics
[Malbeth's the Seer's Words (Galadriel's Message to Elessar)] Over land lies a long shadow ........ .......[Roaring part 1 (repeating the above?)]..... Over the land there lies a long shadow Westward reaching wings of darkness Tower trembles ....... ......[initial melody plays for the second time].... Over land lies long shadow-puff and bluff-bluff
But I got nuff of the ruff stuff
(Ruff and tuff)
(And all that stuff)
[ VERSE 2 ]
Now nuff of the ruff stuff, that's what I do, and I do it well
The proof is in the puddin, I show and prove, not show and tell
Talk tales, you get caught up in a crossfire
Buckshot must be what you want and desire
I write concepts, I don't be frontin or be buggin
I solely write the rhymes for the beats that you be lovin
It's a love thang, the Queen doin her thang
If I was a liquid, you would drink me like Tanq'
You think I'm kickin things that I myself don't even heed?
I rap not for the love of music, but for greed?
"Latifah's booty, yo, she could never succeed"
Shiiit...
You watch me do it and boom it, the Flavor Unit wi
You a-fi listen a likkle, you fi go buy the cassette
You're starvin, cause you ain't had enough
That's right, nuff of the ruff stuff
(Ruff and tuff)
(And all that stuff)
[ VERSE 3 ]
You talk about flavor...
I got enough flavor to make a grapefruit sweet
Get old ladies jumpin out of their seats
Change a peach to a pear to a plum with a little sun 'n rays
I got flavor for days
Now I'm the type that the fellas call a honey, and
>From me you know you get a worth for your money, and
This is no meaningless attack, I gave you a chance
Matter of fact, yo, I ordered them to 'dance
For me', they tried to turn me 'inside out'
They felt the 'wrath of my madness', I let them 'come into my house'
It's called 'latifah's law
And all the gentlemen know its rule: 'ladies first'
Not the typical female that tends to
Fall vitim to the 'evil that men do'
Small puff, I call your bluff
I'm not mad, I just had enuff of the ruff stuff
(Ruff and tuff)
(And all that stuff)
Everybody know Latifah love positivity
Now positivity erase negativity
Mi comin inna di dance ???
Me rollin with the Flavor Unit posse
As a black woman mi want equality
Equality, and di freedom to be me
Mi have a mother Rita, only call her Mommy
Likkle brother and sister, Angelo and Kelly
A brother in them laws, but mi call him Winki
Lost mi daddy and ??? family
??? black ??? black country
Believe in one God, one tribe, one destiny
Cease!

Beach Song Lyrics
Sand is hurting my tender feet The air smells like rotting fish and solarcaine I hate the people on the beach With their towels and umbrellas, they're so insane I don't wanna be on the beach! No! (x2) I don't wanna be on the beach! I don't wanna be on the beach! No! I hate my girlfriend, she-she-she Lies on the beach like a barrier reef Soaking up the stupi

What Am I Gonna Do Lyrics
(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson) What am I gonna do till you come home What am I gonna do now that you're gone What am I gonna do without you What am I gonna do without a man What am I gonna do You do the best you can What am I gonna do without you What am I gonna do with all my time I'll just drown my dreams in sweet wine What am I gonna do without you
