Ring The Alarm

Beyoncé · B'Day [2006]

Ring the alarm

I been through this too long

But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm

Won't you ring the alarm

I been through this too long

But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm



She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats

If I let you go

Get in the house off the coast

If I let you go

She gon' take everything I own

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



She gon' rock them VVS stones

If I let you go

Get in the 'Bach or the Rolls

If I let you go

She gon' profit everything I taught

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



Tell me how should I feel

When I know what I know

And my female intuition tellin me you a dog

People told me 'bout the flames

I couldn't see through the smoke

When I need answers, accusations

What you mean you gon choke

Oh



You can't stay, you gotta go

Ain't no other chick spendin' your dough

This is taking a toll, the way the story unfolds

Not the picture perfect movie everyone would've saw...



She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats

If I let you go

Get in the house off the coast

If I let you go

She gon' take everything I own

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



She gon' rock them VVS stones

If I let you go

Get in the 'Bach or the Rolls

If I let you go

She gon' profit everything I taught

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



Ring the alarm

I been through this too long

But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm

Won't you ring the alarm

I been through this too long

But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm



Tell me how should I feel

When you made me belong

And the thought of you just touchin' her

Is what I hate most

I don't want you, but I want it

And I can't let it go

To know you give it to her like you gave it to me, come on

Oh



He's so arrogant and bold (Oh)

But she gon' love that shit, I know

I done put in a call, time to ring the alarm

'Cause you ain't never seen a fire like the one I'ma cause...



She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats

If I let you go

Get in the house off the coast

If I let you go

She gon' take everything I own

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



She gon' rock them VVS stones

If I let you go

Get in the 'Bach or the Rolls

If I let you go

She gon' profit everything I taught

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



(Ooh)

How can you look at me

And not see all the things

That I kept only just for you

(Ooh)

Why would you risk it babe

Is that the price that I pay

(Oooh)

But this is my show, and I won't let you go

All it's been paid for, and it's mine

How could you look at me

And not see all the things

(See all the things)



She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats

If I let you go

Get in the house off the coast

If I let you go

She gon' take everything I own

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go



She gon' rock them VVS stones

If I let you go

Get in the 'Bach or the Rolls

If I let you go

She gon' profit everything I taught

If I let you go

I can't let you go, damn if I let you go
