Whatever's Clever
Are you ready for me?
(Better let me know)

Are you ready for me?
(Better let me know)
(You'd better, you'd better do whatever's clever baby)
How can you be down?
(gotta do whatever's clever)
So that I will stick around
(gotta do whatever's clever)
And you don't want to waste your time?
(gotta do whatever's clever)
You gotta go somewhere you gotta do whatever's clever
If you wanna step to me?
(gotta do whatever's clever)
So I'll listen carefully.?
(gotta do whatever's clever)
You gotta say whatever, hear whatever, mean whatever, hear
whatever, feel whatever, think whatever do whatever's clever
So you want to roll with me,
Here's advice that you should heed
Common sense is all you need
To avoid my thunder
First of all talk to my face
Not the view below my waist
How we gonna conversate
While your head's down under?
Stop where are you going
If you were in my shoes, what would you say?
Stop, this is worth knowing
So a brother can't lose if he steps my way.

What I have is by my hand
On my own I'm making ground
I am my own woman.
Stop where are you going
If you were in my shoes, what would you say?
Stop, this is worth knowing
So a brother can choose if he steps my way.
