Lyrics Salt-N-Pepa

Salt-N-Pepa

Friends

Oh someone go on like them ya born to find if I bought them

Born for prime star

They are my friend, or they are my enemy

So you call them frienemy, understand me

We don't have no time for playin' so you know what

Yeah, scream out

Come lay down Salt and Pepa is a team

Mad Lion representin' VP, you know how we do

You 'bout to say to yourself, what what

Say one, then some

The paper, can't understand, uh

One degree says, she can't understand

Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed

The thing that everone thought

Bought the Mr. Lover some

Queen, honey bee wannabes

They want to be in front of me

But it ain't no run in me

That's word to my son and me

Now you wanna be family cuz you see the Grammies (Yeah)

Playin' me close, ask me where's my man, how's my man

Sandy be damned be, I keeps the cheese handy

Got the trap for you rats come strapped with the gammy

Jealousy be swellin' me, word

So I had to charge 'em at will

And leave a bill, like Bellamy

What are you tellin' me

Don't let me catch a felony

People trip out, bring out the hell in me

But I stay paid in full, faithful, and always grateful

Stay on guard, praise God, pity the hateful

Said why you gotta be like that, uh

We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh

I know you wanna play the games we play

Only man, finds his car fade away, hey

Why you gotta be like that, uh

Only one-ninety people stepped back, uh

Friends to the end for the ends did ya favors

Damn, why you wanna stick me for my papers

Would have gave you the world now you can't catch a crumb

How you bum-bum-bitty come so dumb-dumb

Remember when you was all busted, broke down, beat up

Even kept you as a friend when you stole to stay steed-up

Wanna be down with my business, we meet up

Schemin' like a demon on the couch with your feet up

Playin' like a summer may stain by far

Got mad I had the juice so you tried to take the jar

I feel for you, yes, I do

No fame, no crew, now what you gon' do, Boo

He say, she say, we say, why say

The fly-ways my way

The try fray, hit the highway

Say one, then some

The paper, can't understand, uh

One degree says, she can't understand

Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed

The thing that everone thought

Bought the Mr. Lover some

Said why you gotta be like that, uh

We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh

I know you wanna play the games we play

Only man, finds his car fade away, hey

You smile in my face but all the while you wanna take my place

Put it on a paper chase and you can't keep my pace

You're jealous cuz I'm this shit and you ain't

Far as I'm concerned, I don't know you from a can of paint (Hey yo, who you)

No time to worry about who likes me, who didn't invite me

Behind my back callin' me shysty, that don't excite me

Backstabbers keepin' that he said, she said runnin'

Always in my business, I leave when I see you comin' (Yo, I'm out)

See you got the game twisted, I could care less

My house is bought and paid for, your rent's due, you're stressed

Nevertheless, you wanna keep some drama on blast

But I don't worry cuz I'm quick to come and check that ass

They're spine behind your face

But meantime, they wanna take your place

Those back-stabbers, hey, back-stabbers

Check it, everybody sees you as preemy and teeny

You see me in 3-D, and need me like a genie

All your wishes are washed up like lock up

We need to write a book called Shit That Botched Up

One thing that Sandi can't understand

The all the world jet but see a plentiful of hands

So tell me, how can we shake 'em, firmly you break 'em

Get 'em hot, and bake 'em, run to miss 'em, I may say

Chase me cuz I don't chase them, chill, in fact

Like friends we are family with a bill attatched

Pep's that green-eyed monster, make them ill and that

Well if envy ever tempt me, Salt steer me back

Said why you gotta be like that, uh

We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh

I know you wanna play the games we play

Only man, finds his car fade away, hey

Never never, never should you get paper

Think you better, better, get up, get up this place

Some new, shit, on my tounge and lip

Only one time, then, I will be done with it, go

Some will get with it, some will get wrecked with it

Some will host and they claim, that they say, we did

You faced it and if you why, sack and I messed with

His name was ah-uh-huh-uh-huh, forget this shit

Mad Lion is sick

No bed could get up in this re-lyrical

Full of new time threat, hey

I got my rhymes and the national anthem

Got more rhymes than either Oleen or Tonet

Got more rhymes than they made us sweat

Of a nigga, of a crooked waitin' for the damn check, uh

But let's not forget the, back-biters is the name of this set, uh

All the people, and we know you bite mine

Soldier people shall shine

Yo' come in the next track, up this
