[Ridenhour, Shocklee, Drayton]

That woman in the corner, cold playin' the role

Just leave her $$# in the corner till her feet get cold
Knowin' for a fact, that girl is whacked
If you hold your hand out, she'll turn her back

Better walk, don't talk, she's all pretend
Can't be her friend unless you spend
Wall to wall, after all

Get ready to throw only money at the (*##$

Cause she thinks she's so-

phisticated

Peekin', seekin' inside a book

Her demands for a man with a chemical look
Wishes, desires, gettin worse with age
She doesn't want a man, all she wants is a page

Ain't got a man so she goes to a club
She think it's classy but it's really a pub
But that's the kind of place she likes to go

The (*##$ got a problem

Cause she thinks she's so-

phisticated

Jackets, shoes, everyday ties

The girl only wants one of those guys
Suckers who front like it ain't no thing
Pretend to be friends, don't want that thang

Talk like this, don't talk slang
Do anything to get that thang
Tries to be chic and play it off

Peekin' through the window, I saw her take her clothes off
Nasty girl, stone cold freak
Stayin' in bed a whole !@#$ week

Comin' and leavin' guys servin' up storms
From execs with checks, boys from the dorms
Never kept a name, never seen a face

She could pass 'em in the street like it never took place
I know she's a ho I'm on the go
Expose the funky (*##$


Cause she thinks she's so-
phisticated


Now she wants a sucker but with an attache
And if you ain't got it, she'll turn you away

You can smile with stile but you lost your trial
Cause you got a gold tooth, she thinks you're wild
She don't want a brother that's true and black

If you're light, you're alright, better stay back
Cause the sucker with the bag is out the catch
With something in his bag keepin' her attached

The man's got a plan, it's IBM
The devil at her level, yes it's him
His Audi she rides, his gold and clothes

The ill base method, turning up her nose
Lack a lack a lack, now beaming her up
She still got the nerve to turn her funky nose up

Her status looks at us from down below
Now the (*##$ is in trouble


Cause she was so-
phisticated


Little is known about her past
So listen to me cause I know her $$#
Used to steal money out her boyfriends clothes

And never got caught, so the story goes
She kept doin' that to all her men
Found the wrong man when she did it again

And still to this day people wonder why
He didn't beat the (*##$ down till she almost died


So-
phisticated
