[Intro]

You think you know

But you have no idea

I hope you ready


[Bridge]

You say you a gangsta, keep sayin' you a gangsta

Really think you a gangsta, don't you?

Think you can have your cake and eat it too?

Sweetie, that don't make you gangsta

I'mma put it on you and I'm through

Watch me show you, "gangsta"


[Verse 1]

Any other night, I'll be watching SportsCenter (with you)

Ponytail with my (slippers)

Pro'bly calling your phone asking when you coming home

Fed up with the lies and the (slip-ups)

But tonight I'mma (pick up)

Something sexy on, do you like a (pimp does)

Cooking dinner with my four-inch (highs)

Rocking a (pearly)

Treat you like a king and (spoil you)


[Pre-Hook]

What you want (I'll do it)

And what you need (I'll prove it)

I'mma be your sweet thing just for the evening

(But don't get too used to it)

Cause I'm coming to cut you off

(This'll be the last time I break you off)

Bet you won't know that you lost a good thing till it's gone


[Hook]

Tonight, I'll be your waitress, your mistress


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Dancer, your doctor


[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]

I'll switch it up

Make you want more when I switch it up

Show you what shows when I switch it up

Watch me sw-sw-switch it (sw-switch it)

Lover, your mother


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Temporary secretary


[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]

Yeah, I'll switch it up

Make you want more when I switch it up

But it ain't yours cause I switch it up

Boy, I'm switchin', switchin' up


[Verse 2]

Any other time, I would be pissed (off)

X-in' out yo' (cards)

Scratchin' up yo' car from the back to the front

I just got your hun name on your (front door)

But tonight I'll be Latisha

That chick that you had up in my (Beamer)

Everything you ain't see in me when you felt you had to cheat

Tonight, I'mma (be her)


[Pre-Hook]

Boy, what you want (I'll do it)

What you need (I'll prove it)

I'mma be your sweet thing just for the evening, uh

(But don't get too used to it)

Cause I'm coming to cut you off

(This'll be the last time I break you off)

Then you gon' find you lost a good one when I'm gone


[Hook]


[Verse 3]

No more cryin' (no more tryin')

I don't like it (so I decided)

I'mma leave you something so that you can remember me

Gon' be so sick of me (you'll be M-Y-A's fiend)

And we gon' change (so I) switch up my game (and I)

Took a look in the mirror and said (Mya, you can't stay)

Left a scent on your pillow, torn pictures in the window

(Keys to the 6-double-O) Changed the number to my cell phone

So you can't call me no more!


[Hook 2]

Your waitress, your mistress


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Dancer, your doctor


[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]

Mm, I'll switch it up

Make you want more when I switch it up

Tell you what shows when I switch it up

Watch me sw-switch it (sw-switch it)

Lover, your mother


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Temporary, secretary


[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]

Mm, I'll switch it up

Make you want more when I switch it up

But it ain't yours cause I switch it up

Watch me switch it


[Hook 3]

Tonight, I'll be your waitress, your mistress


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Lover, your mother


[(Anything you need, I'll let you serve it (I'll switch it)]

Temporary secretary, mmm


[(Get it even though you know I'll serve it (I'll switch it)]

I'll switch it up on ya

Then I'm takin' it back from ya

Boy, you gonna be so sick for me


[Bridge 2]

You said you was gangsta, kept sayin' you was gangsta

Really thought you was gangsta, now look at you

Now you cryin' in my driveway, knockin' at my door

All crazy, can't reach me cause I switched my phone

Caught up wit' ya, now you know better

Never ever mess wit' a gangsta
