[Intro]
We belong on Broadway
(Zangba)
The rich gon’ buy our tickets
Hold these four walls hold our secrets (huh)
[Verse 1]
God hide me from death and make me immortal
Like Enoch and Elijah, let me travel through your portal
On earth, there's a queen, the Sudanese call her Candace
The daughter of a God, she’s brown like the land is
I’ma bag her when I see her, she’s splendid and she G’d up
Benevolence proceed her and she got bread like a pita
In my dreams, she an angel disguised as a queen though
Then I seen her reflection staring through my window
Here's some mushy mash potatoes, eat it and let's lay low
If you can’t that’s okay though, you the wings on my halo
We belong on Broadway, the rich gon’ buy our tickets
At night (night, night)
Hold these four walls hold our secrets
[Chorus]
Hey shorty (hey)
Hey shorty (shorty)
I’ve been thinking about you all day shorty (I been thinking)
Play it for me (uh huh)
Play it for me
Let me see you work that thang
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
Work that thang (uh huh)
Work it in like some mash potatoes (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Yeah we all day playing, on Sundays, all day praying
Play for me I'm saying cause without you I'm insane
All day, I got you on my brain, on my chain I got ya name
Next to mine hearts and kisses, plenty hugs and wishes
I'm the mister you my misses, you cook I wash the dishes
I cut the grass you wash the clothes, our relationship's a business
I eat what you eating and you drink what I'm drinking
I be all day thinking in ya love I be sinking
Way down to the bottom of your heart I be loving
The feeling’s so intense feel like the inside of an oven
Or volcanoes erupting, please girl say something
Your silence interrupting, me and you abducting
Cupid and his arrows, Queen I'm your Pharaoh
You the bone to my marrow or the wheel to my barrow
The horses got their saddles so let's ride into the battle
Where the casualties are heavy from Oakland to Seattle
[Chorus]
Hey shorty
Hey shorty (hey shorty)
I’ve been thinking about you all day shorty (I’m thinking)
Play it for me
Play it for me (play for me baby)
Let me see you work that thang
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes (baby work it)
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
Work that thang
Work it in like some mash potatoes
