[Verse 1: Foxy Brown]

Brown, nigga, uh, chromed out 6 and shit

Bubblin' layin' up with them Colombians

Oh fuck no, I gets dough, Fox Brown Mama

Jig suits from Gabbanna

True, balla nigga who you callin'

Papa we be flashin', sex lastin', all night long, it's strong

The Mac-tress, Ill na na, like Benihana steaks

The boogie like a fresh pair of snakes

Italian, Fox Brown the don, Gucci on

Stylin', sip Cristal on the Cayman Islands

Uh, got gay niggas ready to switch , like Gravano

Turn that mob nigga to snitch, true player to don

From Veneddinni, five carats on the arm, jew-els be the bomb

The four hotties, Total and Foxy, sippin' spumante

Bad girl of the year, '96 Pam Grier, uh!


[Chorus: Total]

I don't need, no one but you, ooh ooh ooh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, you, oh oh oh oh oh


[Verse 2: Lil' Kim]

Many people tell me my style is terrific

Stupendous, tremendous, I bend just a little bit more

Than the average whore, 'cause I'm focused

I rock Versace lamps and sofas

You didn't know I like crocodile boots and gator suits

The biggest willies, got to fill me, huh

I like the hot wheels, you got a fast car

Like Tracy Chapman, you can cruise with this rap star

The mink sporter, the heroin importer , I be that rich bitch

Stack banks by the chips, check it

I spot hits like Spud Mackenzie , I'm Leona Hemsley

Taxes is gettin' axes

It's essential for the presidentials, certified testicles

Get sprayed forty decibels, the king and I

All you need in this world, I'm a bad girl

The high pitch Queen Bitch


[Chorus: Total]

I don't need, no one but you, ooh ooh ooh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, you, oh oh oh oh oh


[Verse 3: Da Brat]

Once again I'm all you need with the caramel skin

Fat luscious lickable lips in a jet black Benz

Stackin' ends, fulfillin' dreams, makin' life complete

Come take a journey with this funkdafied bitch that can't be beat

Once, twice, second time around for me

Three times more than the lady you'd imagined it be

I been, reinstated, platinum plated and niggas hated

Relay it that I'm the shit, twelve lugers in the clip

Get Hot like a Chili Pepper, Flea for me

You got the blunt, give it away to the B-R uh A-T

And check my M3, they got mo' beats than Bo Peep got sheep

And you can't keep up with this heifer from the west side streets

I'm countin' mad money, acting funny with all the phonies

Keepin' it real with homies who been real with me

It would defeat the purpose for me not to flash my rocks

Cash fabulous checks, invest in stocks and bonds

Sippin' on Dom


[Chorus: Total]

I don't need, no one but you, ooh ooh ooh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, you, oh oh oh oh oh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, ooh ooh ooh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, you, oh oh oh oh oh

I don't need no one

[Bridge: Total | Pam Long ]

I don't need no one, baby ( Yeah )

As long as I have you ( Baby )

You gotta believe me, baby ( Believe me, baby, believe me, baby )

'Cause what I say is true ( Yeah )

I don't need no one, baby ( Oh )

You're the only one for me

I don't need nobody else

Baby, can't you see ( Say, can't you see now )


[Chorus: Total]

I don't need, no one but you, ooh ooh ooh

I don't need no one

I don't need, no one but you, you, oh oh oh oh oh

I don't need no one

Leona Helmsley was a real estate investor known for her temperamental actions, leading to her being referred to as the “Queen of Mean.”

In 1989, she was investigated and convicted of federal income tax evasion and other crimes. During the trial, Helmsley was quoted by a former housekeeper as saying: “We don’t pay taxes; only the little people pay taxes.” As a fellow New Yorker, Lil Kim sees Helmsley as an influence in being a boss.
