Effie, Curtis was supposed to -
Love me! Curtis was supposed to love me!
There you are, Effie. I've been looking all over
I turn my back and find myself out on the line
You could have warned me but that would have been too kind
I've been warning you for months to clean up your act. You've be late, you've been mean, giving all kinds of bullshit flack
That's a lie
That's a lie
It's just I haven't been feeling that well
Effie, please. Stop excusing yourself. You've been late; you've been mean and getting fatter all the time
Now you're lying
You're lying
I've never been so thin
You're lying
You're lying
'Cause you're knocking off that piece who thinks she's better than everybody
She ain't better than anybody
She ain't nothing but common
Now who you calling common you self-indulgent
Self-absorbed nonprofessional?
You
I'm calling you
I'm calling you the common piece he's knocking off
Now you listen to me, Miss Blame-It-On-The-World
See, I've put up with you for much to long
I have put up with your bitching
I've put up with your nagging and all your screaming too
Oh, now when are you two gonna stop all this fighting?
Stay out of this, Lorrell! This is between Deena and me
Yeah? Well, it's between me too
I'm as much a part of this group as anybody else, and I'm tired
Effie, I'm tired
Of all the problems you're making us
I always knew you two were together
What!?
I always knew you two were ganging up on me
She had nothing to do with this change, it was you
It was you always thinking of you
Always thinking of you
I knew you were trouble from the start
Trouble?
You were real bad trouble from the start
Curtis I'm your woman!
But you're getting out now
I'm not building this group to have you tear it apart
Go ahead and rant and scream and shout
Don't worry baby, I'll buy you out
There's no money dirty enough to buy me out. You remember that, Curtis
Lay off, Effie
Just take the money and run
You in this with them, C.C.?
Cool it, Effie
This time you know what you've done
So they bought your black ass too, huh?
I said cool it, Effie
This time you've gone too far
Oh I can go further. I can go further
I don't want to stay around this
I'm just breaking into this business
This is between all of you
This is none of my affair
Yeah? Well, it's between you too now, lil' sister
This snow job is as much your sin
Look at me
Look at me
How much did you put out to get in?
Now you watch your mouth
Watch your mouth Miss Effie White
'Cause I don't take that tone from some second-rate diva
Who can't sustain
I'm not feeling well
I got pain
Effie, we all got pain!
Oh for seven years I sung with you
I was your sister
You were our trouble
And now you're telling me
It's all over?
And now we're telling you
It's all over
And now I'm telling you I ain't going
It's all over
I ain't going
