*Walking*

*Getting into car*

*Starting the car*

*Horns*

(Female)

Come on get out of the way

(Male)

The light's green

Move

(Female)

I hate these gangsta singers

with their music loud

Maam

Maam can you please turn your rap music down

You just woke my baby up dammit

ok I just called the cops

*baby crying*

*sirens*

(Missy)

Dont you ever interrupt me when I'm listening to a Monica record

(Crowd)

Ohhhhhh

(Missy)

Yeah

Straight out the slumming streets of A-T-L

I know you waited for her arrival

through the hurricanes, torandoes, and thunderstorms

The climate has now changed

And the storm is now over

I repeat the storm is now over

Let us begin

Hey yo Monica turn the volume up
