Baba Brinkman - Parental Investment lyrics

Yeah, Mr. Simmonds, Baba Brinkman Tryin' to get committed Mr. Simmonds, Baba Brinkman We're gonna work it out My beautiful producer I just wanna make music With you, sir; I know you've been with some seducers Some "super MCs" who just wanna spit lyrics On your tracks and leave, but man, that's not me! I'll be with you 'til it's done, but this ain't no hit and run You can run and tell your friends that you've met someone Different, and not another prima donna tryin' to treat you like a Conquest, I wanna make a long-term investment Why? 'Cause I understand my producer's plight All a rapper has to do is say some lyrics through the mic And they're gone like it's all fun, but in the long run Without producers, no MCs would get their songs done It's like the birds and bees; words are like s**m for MCs And we need producers to nurture our seeds 'Cause it's after we come together that the magic happens That's when you're mastering and fiddling with your mad little plug-ins And that's why I love you, and I wanna commit 'Cause you're the perfect producer for me, so I hope we never split 'Cause if we ever did, you might find a more famous MC But you'll never find another rapper as dedicated as me Whoever stands to lose their investment By a**umin' the risk will be the choosiest I get producers pregnant It's just a simple prediction made by evolution Put it to the test But I'm tryin' to get committed Females invest more resources Except for seahorses and a few exceptions Such as Mormon crickets And me and my producer, when we make this music We're guided by parental investment And so are men and women Look, I know some rappers have tried to prostitute you And pay you a daily rate for your studio, but this is not what you're used to And I know I'm not the only one who wants your exclusive attention But you've gotta admit man, we have huge potential You and me – we make music beautifully And you would make me the happiest rapper on this planet by choosing me And telling the competition you're taken I will do everything in my power to advance your situation And besides, those other rappers treat you like a nasty s*ut So pull you pants up and embrace romantic love! I'm sorry, I just get so jealous when I think on it I like the way your finger toggles so much I wanna put a ring on it And if you make a song and you need somebody to sing on it I understand I can't sing, so we'll get some swingers in on it As long as we're being honest, no arrangement is perfect So it's okay if I'm not the last rapper you ever work with And I might spit some verses on another producer's tracks But I will see our projects through to the last until they're mastered And even after that I will never take you for granted Because I recognize your investment, Jamie, and I aim to match it Whoever stands to lose their investment By a**umin' the risk will be the choosiest You're so choosy Simmonds It's just a simple prediction made by evolution Put it to the test But I've read Bob Trivers Females invest more resources Except for seahorses and a few exceptions You've been kinda promiscuous And me and my producer, when we make this music We're guided by parental investment But I'ma get you pregnant So what is the actual definition of male and female? The females have the larger gametes, the larger s** cells And Jamie, your studio is larger than my microphone So you're the woman in this relationship… Whoever stands to lose their investment By a**umin' the risk will be the choosiest So I'ma get committed It's just a simple prediction made by evolution Put it to the test Go ahead and check it out Females invest more resources Except for seahorses and a few exceptions Like Mormon crickets, right And me and my producer, when we make this music We're guided by parental investment We're gonna get invested Whoever stands to lose their investment By a**umin' the risk will be the choosiest You're kinda choosy Simmonds It's just a simple prediction made by evolution Put it to the test But we goan get committed Females invest more resources Except for seahorses and a few exceptions Like some kinds of fishes And me and my producer, when we make this music We're guided by parental investment We're gonna get committed
