Rosie G. and Bootsy, in the house!
(You got to do it)
You got to do it, ooooh yeah baby!
Tell ’em what we talkin‘ bout, Snoop


Snoop:
Pullin‘ and grabbin‘ you,
rattlesnakin‘ and stabbin‘ you
Things you wouldn’t imagine
Simply because you like havin' people
Talkin about you, but you can’t pay no attention
They say, that’s how it is
Even when you be livin‘ presidential
They always funkin‘ with you
Especially when you go official
Take it from me, a GC
Cuz people are so fictitial
Sticks and stones do break bones
And Talk make the weak fall off
While the strong keep keepin‘ on

Rosie Gaines:
I take two steps forward
They try to knock me four steps back
Whenever I see color
They only see white or black
Whenever I speak my mind
They put words in my mouth
Do they really think that I’m lyin'
When I know what they’re all about?

Don’t let them put you down
No, don’t let ’em
Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let ’em
Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let ’em

When I’m in my sunshine
They bring their rain to fall
I’m lookin‘ at this picture
But they can’t see it at all

I’m steppin‘ on the gas
And I wanna move ahead
They said I'd never make it
But that’s what they always said

Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let ’em
Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let ’em
Don’t let them put you down
Don‘t let ’em
Put ya foot on the gas step on fast

Bootsy:
You say "In God We Trust“
While you promote fear, greed and lust
And Love, Joy and Pain
Is in a constant struggle for superior gain

Don’t let them put you down (don’t just stand there)
Don’t let them put you down (sound so funky to me, yeah)
Don’t let them put you down (Oh, don’t let ’em)
Don’t let them put you down
Don’t let ’em

Oh yeah, just another dog day afternoon
Have you ever been on a trip
And found out that you was from another time, baby
Where unconditional love takes root
And our intelligence is absolutely color-blind, baby

(Don’t let ´em)
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
You got your hands up in my cookie jar (Don’t let ´em)

Snoop:
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it,
don’t talk about it, be 'bout it
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it,
don’t talk about it, be 'bout it

(Don’t let them put you down)

Tell ´em what we talkin‘ bout, Snoop

See, I was once told that
To be talked about was one of the greatest forms of flattery
And I’m flattered that you’re talkin‘ about me
For you to talk about me
Is something fun to do, Baby

Yeah, you keep doin‘ what you do,
cause I’m definitely gon‘ keep doin‘ what I'm doin'

Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it
I’m not gon‘ talk about it, I’m gon‘ be about it
Can you dig it? (Yeah) I don’t know nothin‘ but to do it, baby
And I’m gon‘ do it with the Do-It-Fluid, can you dig it? (I can dig it!)
It’s dug! (Uhh, we outta here, baby)
The People’s Choice, there you have it
The most valuable players, baby
(Don’t let ´em)

Finger funkin‘, just finger funkin‘, baby
(Don’t let ´em)
Uh, let the fingers do the funkin‘
(Don’t let ´em)

We out, Baby!
