"i was walking down glendale blvd. one night. someone
Was playing 'i wanna sex you up' out of their volvo, and
That's when I met her: debra.....)
[spoken] ...just chill....
I met you at j.c. penney
I think your nametag it said jenny
I cold step to you
With a fresh pack of gum
Somehow I knew
That you were lookin for some
Like a fruit that's ripe for the pickin
I wanna do ya like that zankou chicken
'cause you got a thing
That I'm tryin to get with
That I'm tryin to get with
Only you..
I wanna get with you
Only you
And your sister, debra [x2]
I picked you up late at night after work
Baby, step into my hyundai
I said gonna take you out to glendale
Mmmmmm gonna take you out
For a real good meal
Our eyes did meet, you know I was packin in
Ain't no time wastin no time
Gettin to know, know each other
'cause you got a thing that I'm tryin to get with
That I'm tryin to get with
Only you
I wanna get with you
Only you
And your sister, debra [x2]
[spoken]
Girl, I only wanna play with you
I only wanna get with you
And your sister....debra
Debra? --i think that was her name
I wanna get with you
I'm gonna take you up to glendale
I'm gonna take you,
Take you for a real good meal
And when our eyes did meet
You knew I was packin heat
'cause there ain't no use in wastin no time
Gettin to know each other
I wanna get with you
Only you
And your sister, debra [x2]
(girl, I wanna hose you off)
...nobody has to know
We'll keep it on the down-low
No use in wastin no time
Tryin to get to know each other
Ow ow ow ow, etc.
