Dear Ol' Dirty Bastard, no no Dear Baby Yeezus, no, that's not it Dear Dirt McGirt, ah yeah yeah yeah Look, man, there's this girl that I really like, man And I wanna get her to notice me So I just wanted some advice on What should I do to like get her to come my way Write back soon, your biggest fan, Rhymefest Why do you build me up (word) Buttercup, baby, just to let me down? (just to let me down) You mess me around, and then worst of all (worst of all) You never call, baby, when you say you will (when you say you will) But I love you still I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin' You know that I have from the start Build me up (build me up), Buttercup Don't break my heart (don't break my heart) Have you ever met a girl, come into your world Cracked the safe and put your brain on sterile Activate and leaves stains like curls Sophisticate and make you feel so rural Ah, there it is, so liberated Ridin' in a sports car, so ventilated Joggin' in a sports bra, so titillated Chick so cool, but not refrigerated Look McGirt, I don't wanna trouble ya But this chick on my block, I'm in love with her I wanna get up in a bush like Dubya Tryin' to get up in a bush like Dubya So write me back, let me know How I'm supposed to hit it when I got no dough? How I'm supposed to spit it when I got no flow? Shimmy shimmy yay, shimmy ya, shimmy yo, oh Why do you build me up (word) Buttercup, baby, just to let me down? (just to let me down) You mess me around, and then worst of all (worst of all) You never call, baby, when you say you will (when you say you will) But I love you still I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin' You know that I have from the start Build me up (build me up), Buttercup Don't break my heart (don't break my heart) I just wanna talk to her But I'm me and this girl is so popular Mr. Dirty gave me his binoculars From a distance I just started watchin' her Then I met her at Harold's on the Southside Bought her chicken and fries, with coleslaw sides She ain't say thanks or nothin', that's all pride I don't care about her manners, I just let it slide I just think about fuckin' you every day In the sick in the back of my Chevrolet All that chicken you ate and you never paid Take my order, hmm, I'll have a breast filet What you finna say, no? Oh, how is that so? After I came there and spent all my dough "Look, boy, it's chicken, what is you broke?" Then I got scared and said it's a joke Gave her a hug and stole her coat Why do you build me up (word) Buttercup, baby, just to let me down? (just to let me down) You mess me around, and then worst of all (worst of all) You never call, baby, when you say you will (when you say you will) But I love you still I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin' You know that I have from the start Build me up (build me up), Buttercup Don't break my heart (don't break my heart) Dear Dirty, thanks for the advice and everything, man It didn't really work out with this chick this time She wasn't that buttercup, she was just another slut, man But you know what? I'm just gonna say forget about it, man I'm gonna go get a movie You ever seen "Hairy Mess Alley" yet? It's kinda like what I'm goin' through Ah, whatever, come on, yeah This is for everybody lookin' for that perfect girl, man Sometimes you ain't got all the money in the world And you ain't got all the looks in the world, but You can still find that buttercup Don't let her build you up and break you down, man Build it up, whatever Yo, freak for me Make sure she like to fuck, though That's always important, isn't it? Yo Dirt, pack your bags, let's go Yo Dirt, it's over, G
