[Intro: Derrick Delite]
I'm M.C. Kat on the rap, so mic it
Here's a little story and you're sure to like it
Swift and sly and I'm playin' it cool
With my homegirl, Paula Abdul

[Verse 1: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
Baby, it seems we never ever agree
You like the movies and I like TV
I take things serious and you take 'em light
I go to bed early and I party all night
Our friends are saying we ain't gonna last
'Cause I move slowly and baby, I'm fast
I like it quiet and I love to shout
But when we get together, it just all works out

[Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
I take two steps forward, I take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract

[Verse 2: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
Who'd-a thought we could be lovers?
She makes the bed and he steals the covers
She likes it neat and he makes a mess
I take it easy, baby, I get obsessed
She's got the money and he's always broke
I don't like cigarettes and I like to smoke
Things in common? There just ain't a one!
But when we get together, we have nothin' but fun
[Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
I take two steps forward, I take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
A two steps forward, a two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract

[Breakdown: Paul Abdul & The Wild Pair]
You know it, baby, baby

[Verse 3: Derrick Delite]
Nothing in common, but this trust
I'm like a minus, she's like a plus
One going up, one coming down
But we seem to land on common ground
When things go wrong we make corrections
To keep things moving in the right direction
Try to fight it, but I'm telling you Jack
It's useless, opposites attract

[Verse 4: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair]
Baby, ain't it something how we lasted this long?
You and me proving everyone wrong (na-na-na-na)
Don't think we'll ever get our differences patched (huh)
Don't really matter 'cause we're perfectly matched
[Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
I take two steps forward, I'll take two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
A-two steps forward, a-two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract

[Outro: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both]
Two steps forward, two steps back
Two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites, opposites attract
It ain't fiction, you know it's a fact
It's a fact
We come together 'cause opposites, opposites
Two steps forward, two steps back
A-two steps back
Opposites attract
We go together, we go together
Two steps forward, two steps back
A-two steps back
