[Verse 1]

I'm like a new edition

I got fed up with my other version

Ooh let the tables turn high

Let the mothers and the fathers get by

I'm on a new direction

Gonna work it in another nation

Ooh, show me how you get by

Do you swing? Do you often get high?

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Run like a pink flamingo

You're familiar with some prison lingo

Tell all your friends about it

Now you know this is the time to ride it

Fool, I was there before you

I'm in a position to ignore you

I'm on a new direction

Gonna work it in another nation

[Instrumental Break]
