Now in my younger days, I used to score the staaaaaack when I went to school, I carried lunch in a bag with an apple for my teacher, cause I knew I'd get a kiss, always got mad when the class was dismissed, but when it was a session, I always had a question, I would raise my head to make a stem come through my chest, can't help me with my problems, it was never much, just a chick to smell and sniff and try to sneak a touch, oh wow, I wish I could hold her hand and give her a hug, she was married to the man, he was a thug, his name was Lee, he drove a Z, he picked her up from school, probably at three o'clock, I was on her jock, yes indeedy, I wrote graffiti on the bus, first I write her name and card her bus, with my name last, was the lucky last, I seen her yesterday, but still I had to let her pass, she came so fast, with me by, she came so fast, with me by, she came so fast, with me by, she came so fast, when I dream of fairytales, I think of me and Shelly, she's my type of hype and I can't stand when brothers tell me, that I should quit chasing and look for something better, but the smile that she shows makes me a go-getter, I haven't gone as far as asking if I could get with her, I just play love by ear and hope she gets the picture, I'm shooting for her heart, got my finger on the trigger, she can be my broad and I can be her, all I can do is stay up, back as kids we used to kiss when we played truth or dare, now she's more sophisticated, highly edumacated, not at all overrated, I think I need a prayer, to get in her book and it looks rather dry, I guess a twinkle in her eye is just a twinkle in her eye, although she's crazy steppin', I'll try and stop the stride, cause I won't have no more of this passin' me by, time for me to voice my opinion, can't be pretendin' she didn't have me, sprung like a chicken, chasing my tail like a doggie, she was kinda like a star, thinkin' I was like a fan, damn she looked good, downside she had a man, he was a rooty toot, a nickin' poot, she told me soon your little birdie's gonna fly the coop, she was a flake like corn, and I was born not to understand, by lettin' her pass, I proved to be a better man, now there she goes again, the dope is Ethiopian, and now the world around me begins movin' in slow motion, whenever she happens to walk by, why does the apple of my eye, overlook and disregard my feelings, no matter how much I try, wait no, I did not really pursue my little princess with persistence, and I was so low-key that she was unaware of my existence, from a distance I decided, secretly admired her, wired her, a letter, together, and it went, my dear, my dear, my dear, you do not know me, but I know you very well, now let me tell you about the feelings I did for you, when I tried, or made some sort of attempt, I simp, damn I wish I wasn't such a wimp, cause then I would let you know that I loved you so, and if I was your man, then I would be true, the only lying I would do, is send the bed with you, then I'd find that she was the one who loves you dearly, P.S. love me tender, but the letter came back three days later, we turned to send her, damn! P.S. love me tender, but the letter came back three days later, we turned to send her, damn! She keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by, she keeps passing me by,
