Artist/Band: Babyface
Lyrics for Song: Giving You The Benefit
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Babyface



Written by l.a. reid, babyface (1990)

Performed by pebbles



Lately, I've been trying to figure out your mind

And why you keep dissin' me

Poor little me

And why you have a change of heart

And turn it all around

And then try to put it on me

Poor little me

But don't you know



I could be a trip

I could make things hard

But baby I believe that you still got a heart

That's why i

Try to stop myself before I start

'cause I could make it tough

I could make it rough

But I won't



Well I'll be givin' you the benefit

Of the doubt

Givin' you a minute to

Try to work it on out

I'll be givin' you the benefit

Of the doubt

And I'm givin' you a minute to

Try to work it on out



Baby, work it on, work it on out

Work, work, work

Baby, work it on, work it on out

Work, work, work



Baby how could you be hangin' out on the town

And claim that you missin' me

Poor little me

When you knew all the time

That you could've been with your homegirl

Lovin' and a kissin' on me

Sweet little me

But don't you know



If you wanna be a man

You gotta work real hard

If you wanna make me feel I'm like your number one and

Nothin' in the world should make us part

Cause we can make it work

If you take away the hurt

From the heart



Hook



Baby, work it on, work it on out

Work, work, work

Work it baby

Work, work, work

Try to work it on, work it on, work it on, work it on out

Work, work, work

Work it baby

Work, work, work

Keep tryin' to work it on out



I could be a trip

But I choose not to

Deep inside of you

I think there's still good in you boy

Don't give me no reason not to trust you

Just take the benefit

Don't give me no lip

And I'll be sweet to you



Hook



I'll be givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Of the doubt

Givin' you a minute to

(givin' it to you)

Try to work it on out

I'll be givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Of the doubt

Givin' you a minute to

(givin' it to you)

Try to work it on out



(I'll be givin' it to you)

Boy I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(givin' it to you)

Ooh I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Boy I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(givin' it to you)

Ooh I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit



I'll be givin' you a minute or two

To try and work it out

I wanna work it baby

I'll be givin' you a minute or two

To try and work it out

But don't you take too long baby



Hook



I'll be givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Of the doubt

Givin' you a minute to

(givin' it to you)

Try to work it on out

I'll be givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Of the doubt

Givin' you a minute to

(givin' it to you)

Try to work it on out



(I'll be givin it to you)

Boy I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(givin it to you)

Ooh I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(I'll be givin' it to you)

Boy I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

(givin' it to you)

Ooh I want to give it

Givin' you the benefit

I could be a trip

But I choose not to

Deep inside of you

I think there's still good in you boy

Don't give me no reason not to trust you

Just take the benefit

Don't give me no lip

And I'll be sweet to you



Tryin' to understand you right boy

So you need some time to work it out, work it

Well there's really no need to fuss and fight, no

All I want is for you to try and work it out



Lately, I've been trying to figure out your mind

And why you keep dissin' me

Poor little me

And why you have a change of heart

And turn it all around

And then try to put it on me

Poor little me
