[Chorus:]
Thunder and lightning
It's a quiet storm
When your heart is broken in two
There's nothing to live for
[Verse 1:]
The sight of you with him
It made me jealous
Oh, girl
I gave you all I had
It's not enough
And now we're apart, hoo
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Verse 2:]
You finished now, baby?
Are you finished reading me?
Good
‘Cause I'm gettin' ready to read, write and erase you
It's about time you saw me and him walking in the rain
As a matter of fact
That seemed to be the first thing you noticed about me in months
You better sit down, baby
And get out the umbrella
‘Cause there's gonna be a storm tonight
First things first
Don't be fronting like you gonna pull no Rambo on me
Because no attitudeless, Jheri curl gigolo jerk
Is gonna put his hands on me
You know you acting like you put me here on God's green earth
But let's get a few things straight
Right here and now
As for those electroplated slum gold chains you gave me last Valentine's Day
What, did they have a sell at Chains-R-Us?
You walking around like you so fly
In that $37 rabbit coat
Honey, that coat had to be destroyed last week after it bit the neighbor's child
By the way
My man got me a new Gold American Express card
And I'll never leave home without it
But as you know
I've been leaving home without you, baby
Oh, honey
You packed my bags
There's was never any room in that closet anyway
Not with all your budget Bally's and fake Fila
Don't get me wrong
I'm not trying to break on your clothes or nothing
I do love that gray suit you're wearing
Matter of fact
It looks better on you today than it did yesterday
Oh, no
Don't worry about calling me no cab
Because you know that alley cat crumb cake you've been dissing
Well, he's picking me up in his brand new BMW
Unlike that ugly gold El Dorado love mobile you call transportation
Yeah, you just like 7-Up
Never had it
Never will
And don't call me when the bill collectors start calling here 24/7
‘Cause there ain't nothing going on here but the back rent
You know you never did have a real J-O-B
Since you've been with me
Well, I really must go
It's getting late
Besides, your hot chocolate's getting cold
[Chorus:]
Thunder and lightning
It's a quiet storm
Woo, hoo
When your heart is broken in two
There's nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing to live for
So when your heart is broken in two
There's nothing, nothing
Nothing to live for
