K-Murdock - The Girl with the Make-Up lyrics

[Verse 1] I used to make up sketches of the perfect companion One with the right combo of pa**ion and understandin Chillin on the stoop we would make up games Spin the bottle truth or dare but I was way too lame Till I met a chick in math cla**, her name was dawn She was the first girl I knew that put make up on I wanted to get wit her so I would make up lies Pretend that I was gettin money like those guys On the ave who hustled 9 to 5 just to make up time Only came to school once a week cuz they was on the grind Begged my mom for a starter jacket and got 4 Cuz I had mad deficiencies to make up for So I started talkin back to teachers and actin up I'd make up jokes that had the cla** crackin up But I was only concerned with that one girl With the make up, she made up my whole world [Hook] You see we, make love and fight then we lust Then we make up undress and mess up your make up again (we're going upside down, round and round again) [Verse 2] It was a rainy day, I was supposed to walk home with the fellas I made up an excuse, cause I saw dawn wit no umbrella Although it belonged to my moms, I gave it to her anyway I was too shy to talk so I started to walk away Until she said, you might as well stay till the bus come This is the kinda situation the old me would run from But I came back, put on my act, played it cool like them cats Who would sit in the back, of the cla**room I cracked jokes, talked about people walkin by And she laughed at em, I was officially livin a lie Cuz I knew if she had known that I was geek That was from the streets, but far from street, I ain't have a chance Then feelings started rushin like an avalanche Bus was comin, so I just grabbed her hand Wrote my number in her palm wit my bic pen And we been goin steady since then, ha! [Hook] You see we, make love and fight then we lust Then we make up undress and mess up your make up again (we're going upside down, round and round again) [Verse 3] One day I showed up at the rest, decided I would surprise her She didn't have no makeup on I didn't recognize her I had to make up an excuse cuz I ain't have a spine But I dont want a girl who's only pretty part time Then she busted me, had the nerve call me a hypocrite Said I ain't the only one lyin, you ain't no differ-ent She knew that I made up lies about hust-lin Knew I got all my cool clothing from my mother and The sad part was that she liked me for me And I hid behind the same insecurities That she fell for, tryin to be somethin that I was not She said I liked uou, way before the bus stop She said not only can we not hang together I just got an NES we coulda gamed together So I guess the moral is, work wit what ya got Better to be hated for what ya are than loved for what ya not [Hook] You see we, make love and fight then we lust Then we make up undress and mess up your make up again (we're going upside down, round and round again)
