Lyrics
0:05Give it to me baby
0:06Uh-huh uh-huh
0:08Give it to me baby
0:09Uh-huh uh-huh
0:11Give it to me baby
0:13Uh-huh uh-huh
0:14And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a white guy
0:18Uno dos tres quatro cinco cinco seis
0:31You know it's kind of hard
0:33Just to get along today
0:34Our subject isn't cool
0:36But he fakes it anyway
0:37He may not have a clue
0:39And he may not have style
0:41But everything he lacks
0:42Well he makes up in denial
0:44So don't debate a player straight
0:48You know he really doesn't get it anyway
0:51Gonna play the field keep it real
0:54But for you no way for you no way
0:57So if you don't rate just overcompensate
1:01At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
1:05The world needs wannabes so (hey hey)
1:09Do that brand new thing
1:11Give it to me baby
1:13Uh-huh uh-huh
1:14Give it to me baby
1:16Uh-huh uh-huh
1:18Give it to me baby
1:19Uh-huh uh-huh
1:21And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a white guy
1:25He needs some cool tunes
1:26Not just any will suffice
1:28But they didn't have Ice Cube
1:29So he bought Vanilla Ice
1:31Now cruising in his pinto he sees homies as he pass
1:34But if he looks twice
1:36They're gonna kick his lily ass
1:38So don't debate a player straight
1:41You know he really doesn't get it anyway
1:44Gonna play the field keep it real
1:48But for you no way for you no way
1:51So if you don't rate just overcompensate
1:54At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
1:58The world loves wannabes so (hey hey)
2:02Do that brand new thing
2:05Now he's getting a tattoo yeah
2:06He's gettin' ink done
2:08He asked for a "13" but they drew a "31"
2:11Friends say he's trying too hard
2:13And he's not quite hip
2:14But in his own mind
2:16He's the he's the dopest trip
2:18Give it to me baby
2:20Uh-huh uh-huh
2:21Give it to me baby
2:23Uh-huh uh-huh
2:25Give it to me baby
2:26Uh-huh uh-huh
2:28Uno dos tres quatro cinco cinco seis
2:31So don't debate a player straight
2:35You know he really doesn't get it anyway
2:38Gonna play the field keep it real
2:42For you no way for you no way
2:45So if you don't rate just overcompensate
2:48At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lane
2:53The world needs wannabes
2:56The world loves wannabes
2:59Let's get some more wannabes (hey hey)
3:03Do that brand new thing
