"to a T" in lyrics

My game's always so fast, so fine /> You're spun in /> By the net you didn't catch it in time

rain down the red and we covet, the wings clipped /> flew close to the sun, how the tales do tale /> when we angered the Gods with no lives to sell (sell)

Now I'm smiling, I can't believe, (my) love is showering and I'm waiting /> I'm smiling like a fool, I'm waiting for her to come /> And put on boxers and the white T-shirt..

We'll sit down under the apple tree /> Baby just you and me /> When I come marching home

In the end, we'll laugh it off as being reckless /> Wholeheartedly devoting ourselves to others /> Even if now it's only fate that we bear

All that's lost and all that's forgotten /> There'll be no funeral without applause /> There'll be no funeral without applause

Past even these extremes /> Just look at me and you will see /> Someone beyond her wildest dreams!

Open up your wings /> Fly away to find your destiny /> And set yourself free

You say: I've got another face, /> That's not a fault of mine these days, /> I'm honest, brutal and afraid of you.

[BETLEGEUSE, spoken] /> I have chills!

None of these skills you 'bout to see come free /> So you wanna be a sweet MC, you never become me /> If you ever wanna be one, see

[CHORUS x2] She'll never be me

Is reserved for you and me /> And I'll be true /> Till you come marchin' home!

I'm just a kid and you're a walkin' candy store /> Oh, I want some more, yeah, yeah

N.W.A.'s back in this bitch /> and busta ass niggaz don't even understand it /> yo yella kick that shit

Was your ticket to die /> You might find yourself in love /> With your dot in the sky

Oh baby I'll be your sugar daddy, give you kissin' when it's missin' /> I'll even let you drive my caddy, when I get one baby /> Now listen, I'm gonna be your sugar daddy, give you honey, all my money

Ain't nothing I can do /> I've got a thing about you, baby /> A thing about lovin' you

That keeps me that makes me ride that railroad track /> It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back /> It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back

It's you I require /> It's you I adore /> That is what Love is for
