Excuse me while I whip this out

[Intro: Left Eye, Mr. Drick]

Cherry Cherry, my favorite flavor

Don't "Cherry" me

Come on baby

Yeah okay

You still on that?

Still on what?

That ill stuff, you know what I'm saying?

Look, I have come to the realization that you really don't care about my needs okay

Come on baby, that ain't even true

Now sing for me

[Chorus: Left Eye and Mr. Drick (Mr. Drick, Left Eye)]

Cherry Cherry girl you know you’re fine

I'm gonna love you till the end of time

Cherry Cherry girl you look so sweet (Lookin' good baby)

Don’t you know that you’re my everything (You too)

[Verse 1: Left Eye, Mr. Drick]

You broke out in the middle of June the afternoon

Say that tune didn’t know you’d be back so soon (Come on baby)

As a matter of fact, I want you back

Need you back but you just don’t know how to act

I can't front, I play the high road

Now I regret like hell that I ever let you go (Mm)

Now back in June, baby blame it on the moon

You know that I'm a Pisces, astrology ooh

Mmm what you know about ortho-rotational

On the high and low, how the planets flow (Come on)

Maybe you should head for the stars and get back to Mars

Your friends from afar and

Come on Cherry, now you know it ain't that deep

This is me, your world, baby I'm the air that you breathe

Hmmm if that’s what you expect me to believe

I guess we just forget about the times you leave


[Chorus: Left Eye and Mr. Drick (Left Eye)]

Cherry Cherry girl you know you’re fine (You're my favorite flavor)

I'm gonna love you till the end of time

Cherry Cherry girl you look so sweet (You're my favorite flavor)

Don’t you know that you’re my everything

[Verse 2: Left Eye, Mr. Drick ]

You already know from on the down-low

I met Mr. Jones up in Chicago (What?)

Imagine me a star in the shark bar

Don’t want no Cristal forget caviar

The waiter pulled the menu read the wine list

He offered me cherries and a chocolate kiss

Now when you get your butt bit tryna swim with the sharks

Coming back to me should be the easy part

Cause I ain't gon' trip about where you been or what you did

(Don't worry bout where I been)

I only care about you getting back with me kid

Oh so when you say go time to rock and roll

Hate to stop the clock but I’m in control

Even though I have no commitment

I won’t submit to cervical hit men

Yeah you on the mound now

Playing dirty tryna toss a low pitch

I guarantee your whole world with just one hit (Bam!)


[Chorus: Left Eye and Mr. Drick (Left Eye)]

Cherry Cherry girl you know you’re fine (You're my favorite flavor)

I'm gonna love you till the end of time

Cherry Cherry girl you look so sweet (You're my favorite flavor)

Don’t you know that you’re my everything

(Always takin' compliments)

[Break: Left Eye, Mr. Drick ]

So what was all that huh?

Ya hit and run

Yea, I can knock it out the park

Yeah I'mma tell you what need to be hitting home

Come on baby listen

[Verse 3: Left Eye, Mr. Drick ]

You're my five-foot-one

Cocoa complexion, tons of fun

After you boo, there can never be another one

Who makes my heartbeat like you do

Everyday I sent you twelve red roses with a card that says

"I love you"

Won't ya find the time to relax ya mind

Alligator, I see you later down the line

See if you don't stop and my records drop

I suggest you just meet me at the top

Now you don't have to climb that mountain alone

Look, all I ever wanted was a happy home

Well lights, camera, action cause Cherry it's on

Aight don't get mad when Jones answer the phone

[Chorus: Left Eye and Mr. Drick (Mr. Drick, Left Eye)]

Cherry Cherry girl you know you’re fine (You're my favorite flavor)

I'm gonna love you till the end of time (You're my favorite flavor)

Cherry Cherry girl you look so sweet (You're my favorite flavor)

Don’t you know that you’re my everything

[Outro: Left Eye, Mr. Drick ]

You know you're my favorite flavor

Yeah

Huh, you know I like that cocoa skin baby

I don't know, I can't remember the last time you tasted it

It ain't about the last time it's about the next time

You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, but there ain't no such thing as time

You know what I'm saying?

Because now is the past, the past was the present, ya know?

Come on baby, there you go getting deep again

You know what I'm sayin? It's me now, come on now, stay real

Keep it real

What's up?

Hey, it could be me and you

Could be

Could be

You gon' work out

Work it out?

Uhh

Work it out?

Why don't you call me tonight

I could do that

I'll try to answer the phone

You could, try to answer the phone now

Ha bye bye
