Clark Kent bring it on

What you wanna say to make me stay a while?
What you wanna say to make me wanna stay?

What you wanna say to make me stay awhile?
What you wanna say to make me wanna stay?

Just me and my peeps we gettin' buzzed, lookin' for clubs
Misses with kisses and hugs, lookin' for love
She gotta be nice with hers, even with cookin' some grub
Once I'm in I meet her friends then I'm hookin' my thugs

We'll be blowin' hundreds, always knowin' where the fun is
Roadrunners findin' more spots than Columbus
Pocket full of phone numbers from some of the world wonders
I take my time and find where the right one is

Smooth as jazz but more than a half, ready for math
And on a steady path, like Betty Shabazz
And when I see the wiz I'ma step to my biz
And there she is, let's see if she pa*s the quiz

It's appropriate we go get soakin' wet
Toast, we met, become close a*sociates
The place is ours by now I can embrace your style
So much flavor I can taste your smile, stay awhile
