[together]
And everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing
Everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing, there she is
[Talib]
Fresher
than Tony Rebel's vestibules at African street festivals
My incredible women is, plentiful
Over the years I met a few, none of them compare to you
Preparin you to make food bearable,
somethin terrible, let's see:
you fruitful, beautiful, smart, lovable, huggable
Doable
like art, suitable to be part
of my life, Coppertone, oh you copyright infringement
Pay
you bidness ten cents, way back in the day
It's like I'm standin there you know appreciatin
God's design
and then you showed up, it's like you read my mind
DAMN SHE'S FINE, I think I
add the R-E, in front of that
and see if she D, to get, with a cat like me
[Talib] I
like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
way you walk, yes, I live the way you move
[Mos] I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like the WAY you
move
[Talib] I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
way you walk, please, won't
you do that dance
[Mos] I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you
move, I like you baby
[together]
And everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see
us sing
Everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing, there she is
[Mos
Def]
Ooooh! Daring me girl, look at you!
Comin on the block lookin fresh and brand
new
Ooooh! Headwrap cover your hairdo
Pretty feet peekin through open-toed shoe
Ooooh! No limit to what I would do
Make love to you like long interview
Whooh! Is she
for real, me like you
Good look champion, win the title
True, many man try invite you
Shot down lyric each time they cyph you
Jewel, what man you get all insides you
Feet they
walk way and just that sheik posture
Ooooh! Can't be a next one like you
Famous like
tapes made by DJ Clue
I tighten up my game as I approach you
Yo check her she the nectar
the bee get close to
...
[Talib]
I don't get many compliments, but I am
confident
Used to have a complex about, gettin too complex
You got me, willin to try,
looked me in the eye
My head is still in the sky, since you walked on by
I'm feelin high,
got my imagination flickerin like hot flames
it's how it seems, you make me wanna ride the
Coltrane to A Love Supreme
My brown lady, creates environments, for
happy brown babies, I
know it sounds crazy
but your skin's the inspiration for cocoa butter
You provoke a
brother we should get to know one another
I discover when I bring you through my people say
TRUE, all I can say
is all praise due I thank you God for a beauty like you
*Mos Def

Such a brown skinned lady

She's a
brown skinned lady
[Talib]
You know what some people put themselves through
to
look just like you?
Dark stocking, high heels, lipstick, alla that
You know what?
Without makeup you're beautiful
Whatcha you need to paint the next face for
We're not
dealin with the European standard of beauty tonight
Turn off the TV and put the magazine
away
In the mirror tell me what you see
See the evidence of divine presence
Women of
the, Carribean, they got the, golden sun
I know women on the continent got it
Nigeria, and
Ghana, you know they got it
Tanzania, Namibia and Mozambique
and Bothswana, to let it
speak
about latinas, columbianas
...
Tallenas, of course the Brooklyn women walk that
walk
And the Bronx women walk that walk
Honies from Queens walk that walk, NYC, ATL,
LA
Cincinatti, the Bay Area... | | | |
