Verse 1
On and on and on and on
Say wait a minute queen
what's your name?
I beat a gypsy flipping life game
from the right brain
Ascension maintained

Rolling through like a burning flame
Like a supernova star
The moon past the sun
Gb
Ebm
for constellations start forming
Across up in the sky,
but everybody wanna ask me why
Why do your words do,
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talking,
they'll shoot by do, by do
Why do your words do,
Gb
Ebm
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talkin' that shit Badoo,
Badoo
Santa, I ain't see sicko there, got that
Well, well, I'm raisin' hell
People always tryin'
to find a world of men
Two fish, one swimmin' upstream
One swimmin' down livin' in a dream
But when she loves, she tends to cling
When incense burns, smoke unfurls
So dip, dip, dial, zip, dip, dial
The go -to smile, split them vows
Bing, boom, ping, melanated
Bout to give birth to church
But everybody wanna ask this earth
What good do your words do
Gb
Ebm
If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit, badu, badu
What good do your words do

if they can't understand you?

I remember how I felt
the day I first started my period
Remember there in school

one day I learned I was inferior
Water in my stereo
By doing your stereo

Holla if you hear me though

Remembering is good

Things just ain't the same for singers
But that's all I have, ain't got no more
But still the people really wanna know
What good do your words do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talking that shit
Badoo, Badoo
What good do your words do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talking that shit
Badoo, Badoo
