[Verse 1]

Hey, whatcha know?

Outside of the Beastie Boys show

Saw that kid that tried to get with me

He said, "By the way, where you been?

Are you still wit' that boyfriend?"

I said no with an evil grin

Wanna hook up, but I thought again


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Met him on the train one day when I was wrapped in pain

He said "I love you" in more ways than I've ever heard

And before I got his name I thought that it might be okay

For use of service to take some pain away


[Chorus]

I know guys that talk around town

Girls like me wanna keep it down

Dope boy fresh with all your clothes

Want that girl where anything goes

Yeah, B-boys want all the fame

Girls get hurt when you play that game

You real concerned with how I feel

No, thank you, I'd rather chill


[Verse 2]

Hey, what's the deal?

I'll let you know if things get ill

Can't hook up when you call the shots on me

But you got things that I'd like to see

Soft porn doesn't do it for me

I don't like sex and drugs to be

I don't like sex and drugs to be


[Pre-Chorus 2]

One day on the train will never lead my mind astray

"I don't deserve this" in more ways than I've ever heard

But instead of being scared, his words just went straight to my head

And I got nervous and laughed my love away


[Chorus]

I know guys that talk around town

Girls like me wanna keep it down

Dope boy fresh with all your clothes

Want that girl where anything goes

Yeah, B-boys want all the fame

Girls get hurt when you play that game

You real concerned with how I feel

No, thank you, I'd rather chill

I know guys that talk around town

Girls like me wanna keep it down

Dope boy fresh with all your clothes

Want that girl where anything goes

Yeah, B-boys want all the fame

Girls get hurt when you play that game

You real concerned with how I feel

No, thank you, I'd rather chill


[Outro]

No, thank you, I'd rather chill

No, thank you, I'd rather chill

No, thank you, I'd rather chill

No, thank you, I'd rather chill
