I can see it in your eyes You wanna get down with Queen La Lace Latifa, I can see ya eyes on my body parts The friendship's slippin' 'coz it ain't me you hittin' Why you trippin'?
Wishin' you could get a taste from the black Queen It captivates the mass when I slide on the scene, yo We ain't gettin' down like that You took a hug to the next level, try to spit that
Counterfeit, nice shit put on the act trick Try to get a quick kiss and you got snapped quick I tried to be nice and play it all smooth Well I guess done has somethin' to prove
So I had to move, getaway like a fugitive Didn't wanna do the kid 'coz I knew the kid Didn't really wanna do no harm I don't know what I did but I didn't mean to turn you on
I took you out, I was only tryin' to be nice Let you touch it once or twice Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
All the ladies in the place know how it go When you show a lil' kindness, cats wanna flow Want some mo' neck shit, some mo' sex shit Well, you tell 'em from the door, it's strictly friendship
Didn't mean to turn you on Why apologize? I ain't do nothin' wrong You knew what the deal was, what the real was You was confused with the levels of love
I seen you in the club with your eyes on me All night lookin' asinine, up under the strobe light More thin ice, there's still [Incomprehensible] When it break through I don't think we could be friends
If you sayin' you a playa, baby, live like one You play yourself like a bomb, never gettin' none And say beggin' for some and never get it If I turned you on, I guess you gotta live with it
I took you out, I was only tryin' to be nice Let you touch it once or twice Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on I didn't mean to turn you on
So what you mad now, got a attitude now 'Coz I had to pull your foul? Frontin' big Willie style when you're a major joke Pagin' me so much till my pager smoked
Got your Eskimo kiss and shit Your nose's too brown, how you get chicks to trip Well I ain't the one, I could buy you and your whip Hold your head 'coz I've got so many hits, what?
I took you out, I was only tryin' to be nice Let you touch it once or twice Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
And I took you out I was only tryin' to be nice Let you touch it once or twice Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
And I took you out I was only tryin' to be nice Let you touch it once or twice Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
