Chelsea Rodgers

Prince · Planet Earth [2007]

A model,,

Used to be a role model



I dunno

Come on Chelsea!

I dunno

Come on (Uh-huh)



Ah, go ahead now Chelsea! Go ahead now!

Uh, this for Jersey right here.

Go ahead now!

(Ah, ah, ah, ah)



Chorus:

Chelsea Rodgers was a model

Thought she really rocked the road, yes she did

Kept her tears up in a bottle

Poured them out to save her soul



Ask her what she liked the most

She said, she liked to talk to Jimi's ghost, Ow!

Fantasy, her friends boast (This girl is fly)

Chelsea's fly, like coast to coast (Mmmm)

Hollywood or Times Square

If the party's fly, my girl is there (yes she is)

Purple's on and bounce in her hair

21st Century hippy, Chelsea don't care



(Chorus)



Try to catch her if you can

(Come on now together)



You never see her with my man

(Uh, a brother got to jump n the water)

He must be baptized, according to the masterplan,

'Fore she give up the good thang

Go ahead Chelsea! (Go ahead Chelsea!)



No cut diamonds, and designer shoes (Uh, no-no!)

'Cause she's too original from her head down to her feet

(Rehab) (If you want to) (just don't mean no me)

Chelsea don't eat no meat, still got butt like a leather seat

Go ahead Chelsea! (Go ahead Chelsea!)



(Chorus)



Go ahead Chelsea!

(Speak on that horn)



Come on

Next to her they just a fool.

Chelsea read more books than a few

Moses was a Pharoah in the 18th Dynasty *

And Rome was chillin' in Carthage in 33 BCE

And the day that we stop counting, we live as long as a tree

Go ahead Chelsea, teach me! Go ahead Chelsea.



Make a promise to your higher self,

get you nothing, fame and wealth

You don't be chasing nobodies ghost.

Of everything, make the most (Come on!)



(Chorus) x 2
