Salt N Pepa - Independent lyrics
rate me
When duty callthe leader pep come hard
Try to dis my girl saltup goes my guard
Still femininefeminine stillyes
But then next pump a hundred weight bench press
So what it meanpep? I'm not impressed
Cuz I wear the pantsand you wear the dress
Punkyou're lovin' stunkyou're not a hunk
This is independent funk
And I'm gettin' ready for the year 2000
Independent - yesI'm housin'
Independent - yeahnow watch me
Independent - no one can stop me
Woman and I am independent
I make my own money so don't tell me how to spend it
Cuz you need meand I don't need you
So listen closeboyto my independent funk
Yeahcan you feel it?
Yesit's myit's my independent funk
(yawn) you're sleepygo to bed
Wanna step? go ahead and jet
Now wake up from your dreamin' cuz you're dealin' with the pep
Like oakley from the knicksyesI'm havin' a ball
You think because you're leaving that I'm gonna take a fall?
It was small thingooooit was really too small
Livin' largeboystanding ten feet tall
Now my heart won't dentkeep the money I lent
And don't forget I pay the rentthis is my apartment
I'm independent
I am independent
That's right I said itand be damn sure I meant it
Cuz a girl like me can have anybody
So give my loveboyto my independent funk
Hey...
Salty the v.i.p.you should have stuck with me
What are you stupid? huhmy pockets run deep
So flex the rolex and the sex that I gave ya
In jail with no bail and now nothin' can save ya
You want me to visit? I ain't with it lizard
We had magic now ya lost without the love wizard
Ya had to cross meand now you lost me
Get off me softyI'm the bosssee?
You can't disguise the lies in your eyes - you're not a heartbreaker
You're a fraudand I'm bored - you're a fake faker
It's too late to debate with the moneymaker
After whilecrackhead - see ya latergator
Woman and I am independent
I make my own money so don't tell me how to spend it
Cuz you need meand I don't need you
So listen closeboyto my independent funk
Yeahso funkyso funky
Nonono more nookie for you cuz I gave ya the boot
Go ahead and go in your yugogonna miss the benz coupehometroop
Who's supportin' ya now?
Got a job or do ya rob? I heard you're sellin' drugs - wow
Big manhuh? but just understand uncle sam know the scam
You'll end up in the can
Singin' a sad song cuz you did me wrong
Couldn't fool me for longI got it goin' on
I'm independent
YesI am independent
That's right I said itand be damn sure I meant it
Cuz a girl like me can have anybody
So give my loveboyto my independent funk
Hey yeah...my independent funk
It's just an independent funk
Get with this independent funk
You're a baby so maybe you just needed a babysitter
Bitter? i figure I'm rid of a piece of litter
TigertiggerI bounce backand you're a quitter
Your girl is gone for good so just forget her
You're blindyou'll never find another better
Your mind stays on a behind in a tight sweater
Burned your flowers and your love letters
Never a tear will I shed
I'm independent
YesI am independent
I make my own money so don't tell me how to spend it
Cuz you need meand I don't need you
So listen closeboyto my independent funk
Yeah...
