Down to Earth Page #9
The funny thing | about reincarnation, kid:
Even when you're not you, | you're still you.
Don't worry. | I got a good feeling about this.
Don't worry? | I had a hard enough time...
trying to get this girl | as a rich white man.
Do you know how hard it's gonna be | to try to get her as a broke black man?
See you around, Joe.
That's what I'm talking about. | You and me on the road.
We could blow up, son! | Joe, are you allright?
Lance.

Would it be cool to come by | your office and leave a tape?
You know, like maybe | you could take me on?

You're a good kid.

Oh, um, excuse me. | I'm looking for Whitney Daniels.
Uh, Whitney Daniels? | Yeah, just go straight.

When you get by the dressing rooms, | he should be there.

Last call at the Apollo. We better | get out of here before they lock us in.
Give me your hand. | I know my way around here.
Don't be scared. | Everything's all right.
What did you just say?
Everything's all right. Like the song. | Everything is all right
It's just that | when you said that, it-
- You're a comedian? | - Do I sing that bad?
No. You were on tonight. | How'd you do?
They didn't boo. | You know, they got this after party-
- Sorry. I didn't mean to hold you up. | - No, no, no, no, no.
I don't feel like going to the party. | You wanna get something to eat?
Are you asking me out?
No, I just want to feed you.
Yeah. I'm starved.
- Nice shoes. | - Thankyou.
So what do you do?
- I'm into medicine. | - What are you, a drug dealer?
Watch it. No. Actually, | I own Brooklyn Community Hospital.
You own a hospital? | I know Brooklyn Community.
My uncle went there for a new liver, and | they sent his ass to the supermarket.
Hello, Sontee. | How're you doing, sir?
- This your ride? | - Yeah.
Well, ifyou want to keep it, | you better get it out of here.
- This is nice! | - Cisco.
What kind of mileage | you get on this?
Oh, pretty good.
Cocktails, Miss Jenkins?
- So are you the maid? | - The maid?
- Do I look like the maid? I'm the paid. | - This is my friend Wanda.
And look at you. Let you out of | the car, and you're pickin' up strays.
- Did you know your coat's bleeding? | - Mind your business.
Hey, girls, did you know | That pretty boys they need no more
You better find you a love | you can trust
And expect to like his mother
Hey, fellas, you better find | A girl who loves you more
- You okay, Sontee? | - I'm okay. You okay?
- I'm okay. | - Cisco, you okay?
- I'm okay. Wanda, you okay? | - Hell, no! I spilled my drink.
You know what? | You drink. I'm gonna drive.
Didn't I tell you | to keep an eye on him?
I was tying my shoe, and when I looked | up- It won't happen again, sir.
Cisco, you got any music?
Here you go.
With my mind on my money | And my money on my mind
Rollin' down the street | smokin' Indo
- Sippin' on gin and juice | - Laid back
With my mind on my money | and my money on my mind
Rollin' down the street | smokin' Indo
- Sippin' on gin and juice | - Laidback
With my mind on my money | And my money on my mind
I got me some Seagram's gin
Everybody got they cups | but they ain't chipped in
Now, this type of sh*t | Happens all the time
You gotta get yours | But, fool, I gotta get mine
Everything is fine when you | listenin' to the D-O-G
I got the cultivatin' music | that be captivatin' he
You think you're slick in every way
Changing up the codes | On your phone everyday
Is there something that you're | trying to hide from me
I never gave you reason to run and | Take your calls in the other room
Am I the only one | Or is somebody else getting at you
Is it my imagination
Things ain't always | what they seem
'Cause I don't wanna be
Just another name | In your little black book
Just another face in the crowd | And it's got me shook
I gotta mean | a little more to you
Than a space in your list | Of your things to do
Another G-Shock done | In your Benz
Another dime piece | That you can show all your friends
You can call me crazy | say I'm insecure
But I don't wanna be
Oooh, oh, ohh
Ohhh
Mm, mm
Strange how you claim | to tell the truth
When the passenger's seat | In your car's been moved
And you swore that there was | no one else but you, you
And something else | you can't explain
Why'd you call me | By somebody else's name
You say it's history | Your playing days are through
Or so you say
Is it my imagination
Things ain't always | what they seem
'Cause I don't wanna be
Just another name | In your little black book
Just another face in the crowd | And it's got me shook
'Cause I gotta mean | a little more to you
Than a space in your list | Of your things to do
Another G-Shock done | In your Benz
Another dime piece | That you can show all your friends
You can call me crazy | say I'm insecure
Tell me, are you lying | Or is it my suspicious mind
I gotta know the truth
If I am just another girl
You're treatin' wrong
Another one | You string along
Is it you and me | Is it two or three
'Cause I don't wanna be
Just another name | In your little black book
Just another face in the crowd | And it's got me shook
I gotta mean | a little more to you
Than a space in your list | Of your things to do
Another G-Shock done | In your Benz
Another dime piece | That you can show all your friends
You can call me crazy | say I'm insecure
But I don't wanna be | just another girl
Just another face in the crowd | And it's got me shook
I gotta mean | a little more to you
Than a space in your list | Of your things to do
Another G-Shock done | In your Benz
Another dime piece | That you can show all your friends
You can call me crazy | say I'm insecure
But I don't wanna be | just another girl
Just another face in the crowd | And it's got me shook
