Funkmaster Flex - O.P.P. - Naughty By Nature lyrics

rate me

You down with O.P.P. (Yeah you know me) 3X

Who's down with O.P.P. (Every last homie)

You down with O.P.P. (Yeah you know me) 3X

Who's down with O.P.P. (All the homies)

O.P.P., how can I explain it

I'll take it frame by frame it

To have y'all jumpin', shoutin', singin' it

O is for Other, P is for People scratch your temple

The last P...well...that's not that simple

It's sorta like another way to call a cat a kitten

It's five little letters that are missin' here

You get on occasion at the other party as a game 'n

It seems I gotta start to explainin'

Bust it

You ever had a girl and met her on a nice hello?

You get her name and number and then you feelin' real mellow

You get home, wait a day, she's what you wanna know about

Then you call up and it's her girlfriend or her cousin's house

It's not a front, F to the R to the O to the N to the T

It's just her boyfriend's at her house (Boy, that's what is scary)

It's O.P.P. time, other people's what you get it

There's no room for relationships, there's just room to hit it

How many brothers out there know just what I'm gettin' at

Who think it's wrong 'cause I'm splittin' and co-hittin' that

Well if you do, that's O.P.P. and you're not down with it

But if you don't, here's your membership

Chorus

You down with O.P.P. (Yeah you know me) 3X

Who's down with O.P.P. (Every last homie)

You down with O.P.P. (Yeah you know me) 3X

Who's down with O.P.P. (All the homies)

As for the ladies, O.P.P. means something gifted

The first two letters are the same but the last is something different

It's the longest, loveliest, lean - I call it the leanest

It's another five letter word rhymin' with "cleanest" and "meanest"

I won't get into that, I'll do it...ah...sorta properly

I say the last P...hmmm...stands for "property"

Now ladies here comes a kiss, blow a kiss back to me, now tell me exactly

Have you ever known a brother who have another like a girl or wife

And you just had to stop 'cause he look just as nice

You looked at him, he looked at you, and you knew right away

That he had someone but he was gonna be yours anyway

You couldn't be seen with him and honestly you didn't care

'Cause in a room behind a door no one but y'all are there

When y'all are finish, y'all can leave and only y'all would know

And then y'all could throw the skeleton bones right in the closet do'

Now don't be shocked 'cause if you're down, I want your hands up high

Say O.P.P. (O.P.P.), I like to say with pride

Now when you do it, do it well and make sure that it counts

You're now down with a discount

Chorus

This girl ah tried to O.P.P. me

I had a girl and she knew that matter-of-fact my girl and I

Had a fall out, disagreement, yeah an argument

She tried to do me so we did it in my apartment, bust it

That wasn't the thing it must have been the way she hit the ceiling

'Cos after that she kept on coming back and catchin' feelings

I said, "Let's go my girl is coming so you gotta leave"

She said, "Oh no, I love you Treach" I said, "Now child please"

"You gots to leave, come grab your coat, right now you gotta go"

I said "Now get yourself to the stairs and to the stairwell

This was a thing, a little thing, you shouldn't have put your heart

'Cause you know I was O.P.P., hell, from the very start

Come on, come on, now let me tell you what it's all about

When you get down, you can't go 'round runnin' off at the mouth"

That's rule number one in this O.P.P. establishment

You keep your mouth shut and it won't get back to her or him

Exciting isn't it, a special kinda business

Many of you will catch the same sorta OPP

Is you with him or her, for sure is going to admit it

When OPP comes, damn-- skippy I'm with it

Chorus 3x
