[Intro]

Pussy pussy (Control man)

(Here come the drums)


[Intro]

Uh, yeah, uh

Good morning ladies and gentlemen

Boys and motherfucking girls

This is your captain with no name speaking

And I'm here to rock your world

With a tale that will soon be classic

About a woman you already know

No prostitute she, but the mayor of your brain

Pussy Control


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)


[Verse 1]

Our story begins in a schoolyard

A little girl skipping rope with her friends

A tisket, a tasket, no lunch in her basket

Just school books for the fight she would be in

One day over this hoodie

She got beat for some clothes and a rep

With her chin up, she scolded "All you all's molded

When I'm rich, on your neck I will step"

And step she did to the straight A's

Then college, a master degree

She hired the heifers that jumped her

And made everyone of them work for free?

No! Why?

So what if my sisters are trifling?

They just don't know

She said "Mama didn't tell'em what she told me

'Girl, you need Pussy Control'"


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)


[Verse 2]

Pussy got bank in her pockets

Before she got dick in her drawers

If brother didn't have good and plenty of his own

In love Pussy never did fall

And this fool named Trick want to stick her

Uh, talking more shit than a bit

About how he going to make Pussy a star

If she come and sing a lick on his hit

Pussy said "Nigga, you crazy if you don't know

Every woman in the world ain't a freak (Pussy)

You can go platinum for times

Still couldn't make what I make in a week (Pussy)

So push up on somebody that want hear that

Cuz this somebody here don't want to know (Pussy)

Boy, you better act like you understand

When you roll with Pussy Control"


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Breakdown

(Pussy)


[Verse 3]

With one more verse to the story

I need another piece of your ear

I want to hip you all to the reason

I'm known as the Player of the Year

Cuz I met this girl named Pussy

At the club - International Balls (Pussy)

She was rolling for deep

Tree sisters and a weepy-eyed white girl driving a Hog

I pulled up right beside her

And my electric top went down (Pussy)

I said "Motherfucker, I know your reputation

And I'm astounded that you are here

I fear you are lonely and you want to know (Pussy)

A 12 o'clock straight up nigga

That don't give a shit that you are Pussy Control

Well I'm that nigga, at least I want to be

But it's going to be hard as hell (Pussy)

To keep my mind off a body

That would make every rich man want to sell, sell, sell

Can I tell you what I'm thinking that you already know?

You need a motherfucker that respects your name"

Now say it, Pussy Control


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)


[Spoken Interlude]

And the moral of this motherfucker is

Ladies, make them act like they know

You are, was, and always will be Pussy Control


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)


[Spoken Interlude]

Peace and be wild

Say what, huh?

Oh no, don't you think about calling her a ho

You juvenile delinquent

Best sit your ass down

Talking about Pussy Control

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Huh, can you dig it?


[Chorus]

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh

(Pussy, Pussy, Pussy, Pussy Control)
