DJ Shadow - Backstage Girl Lyrics
She told me I've taken her to places she has never been beforeBut really she was taking me places I promised myself I'd never go to damn...Pff damn, let me start from the beginning...Alright man I want all of you brothers to get rid of frustrationAnd show sweet honey for your mouthYeah yeah yeah one twoSome say she was from CaliSome say the CarolinasMom was a belly dancerPap' was a neverminderNo drugs or alcoholNo weed or marijuanaYou think the backstage was the last place you'd find herFirst time I saw her kindaReminded me a of a chick you see in ...carawana?Friendly and talkative, yeah look as so marvellous hairDead nicotine filling life ..... in the cityYou gotta see this butI am back resting peace parting itI start thrilling .... out of my consciousnessIt's just that when I think... oh girl my whole world collapses allSo enwrenched in all overflow thisShe approaches me with a smurf to sayWe can do work no matter what time or day of the week it isSo ... that backstage girl she fell to her knees just to pray on my weaknessesHomey I told her straight up, you knowI got a significant other... she ain't careShe said tonight I wanna be your insignificant lover .... what?God damn...Oh we left the club at around twoJust enough time to meet my niggers for round twoAt another spot, DJ playing the sounds tooHopefully divert me from being a scout drewIn the spot making my rounds doThe crowd trying to throw her offbut she's on me like a bloodhound JewWouldnÂ’t believe how hard I tried to fight itPassions and desires were closing inAnd thatÂ’s what it amounts toI looked her in the eyesAnd say I donÂ’t even know your nameIt feels wrong even though I donÂ’t show it...She said I wish I could tell you the sameBut I won't tell you my name cause I want you to***** me like you donÂ’t know itI responded with a smurf to let he knowWe can do work no matter what time or day of the week it isSo ... that backstage girl fall down to her knees to pray on my weaknessesBut man can you fight her? Go aheadYou'd think the backstageWould be the last place you'd find herYou'd think the backstageWould be the last place you'd find herBeen all around the world, seen so many facesWas looking for love in all the wrong placesBeen all around the world, seen so many facesBackstage girlWas looking for love in all the wrong placesI woke up the next morning all tangled up in her hairThat's when I realized she had me all where she wanted meShe told me I'd taken her to places she'd never been beforeBut really she took me to a place I promised myself I'd never return toAnd I was *****ed upAnd the thing was I didn't feel bad about what I've doneI just felt stupid for trying to fight it for so longI mean really who I was foolingI knew what time it was soon as I saw herSoon as she smiled at me and guy can tell what the foetal position wasAnd I dare she'd gave it tooI thought I had changedBut niggas never changesBut it took that one nightThat one passionate night for me to realize what I needed to doI gotta stop *****ing with these whores off of my space thoughSome say she was from Cali, some say the CarolinasMom was a belly dancer, pap' was a neverminderNo drugs or alcohol no weed no marijuanaYou think the backstage was the last place you'd find herYou'd think the backstageWould be the last place you'd find herBeen all around the worldSeen so many facesWas always looking for love in all the wrong placesBeen all around the worldSeen so many facesWas always looking for love in all the wrong placesBeen all around the worldSeen so many facesWell well wellWas always looking for love in all the wrong placesOh yeahBeen all around the worldSeen so many facesBackstage girlWas always looking for love in all the wrong places
