Outkast - Behold A Lady Lyrics
[Andre 3000]Sophistophone {?}, aristocatsDistinguished stars, clean up your actsPull up your pants, ladies and gentsPlease, act like you got some senseYou know what I really wanna know?Where do all the good girls goWhat clubs they hang in?[Chorus]Behold a ladyI see you standin' on the wallClap, clap... you deserve it all [Repeat][Ad libs]Candy-coated unicorns are quite hard to findThe classic lady, a rare breed indeedIs that make and model discontinued?[Verse 1]Today I might snow, tomorrow I'll rain3000's always changing but you stay the sameAnd I need that, hey I need that (in my life)When I feel washed up and inadequateAnd throw all my songs away, no matter how mad I getYou make me smile, you make me smileYou make me smile, you make me... (Hoooooooo!)You're the anchor that holds me downWhen my ship is sinkingYou won't let me drown and I'm grateful(Awwaww Awwawwawwawwawwwwawww!)[Chorus][Verse 2]Yo' mama's old fashioned, yo' daddy don't playYou'll always be this lovely'Cause they raised you that wayHallelujah! Thank ya Jesus! Thank ya Lord!Thank ya Jesus! Thank ya Lord!Thank ya Jesus! Thank ya Lord!You're not extra, you're so plain JaneThe yin to my yang, darlin'You've got that thang and you know itBut yet you don't and that's what's so coolYou don't say too much, but when you do it's profoundIn the street you hold your head highAt home you get low down for me(Can't get no lower, can't get no lower, can't get no lower, yeah!)Hooo! You're the anchor that holds me downWhen my ship is sinking, you won't let me drown (Aaaaaaahh!)(Ad libs)Sad, but one day our kids will have to visit museumsTo see what a lady looks likeSo if you find one, I beg you, hold her tightIf you spot one, good sir, treat her rightThis is Benjamin Andre signing offThanks a millionGood luck and goodnight[Chorus 2x]
