MC Lyte
Paper Thin
[Verse 1]
When you say you love me, it doesn't matter
It goes into my head as just chit-chatter
You may think it's egotistical or just worry-free
But what you say, I take none of it seriously
And even if I did, I wouldn't tell you so
I'd let you pretend to read me, and then you'd know
'Cause I hate when one attempts to analyze
In fact, I despise those who even try
To look into my eyes to see what I am thinking
That dream is over, your yacht is sinking
I tell all of you like I told all of them
What you say to me is just paper thin (Word)

[Verse 2]
I'm not the kind of girl to try to play a man out
I take the money and the gear and then break the hell out
No, that's not my strategy, not the game I play
I admit I play game, but it's not done that way
Truly, when I get involved, I give it my heart
I mean my mind, my soul, my body, I mean every part
But if it doesn't work out, yo, it just doesn't
It wasn't meant to be, you know? It just wasn't
So I treat all of you like I treat all of them
And what you say to me is still paper thin
[Verse 3]
In one ear and right out the other
I heard his mumbo-jumbo (Tihs) lover
I don't pay attention, I don't concentrate
You ain't got the bait that it takes to hook this
Aha, aha, aha, sucker you missed
I put all feelings aside, I know who I am
My name is Lyte, is your name Sam?
'Cause if it is, step off, grab your coat and get lost
Wrap your scarf around your throat and go back and catch a rope
And hit the road, Sam, don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Sam, don't you come back no more

[Verse 4]
So now I take precaution when choosing my mate (Uh-huh)
I do not touch until the third or fourth date (Word)
Then maybe we'll kiss on the fifth or sixth (Yeah)
Time that we meet, muah (Like that)
'Cause a date without a kiss is so incomplete
And then maybe I'll let you play with my feet
You could suck the big toe and play with the middle
It's so simple, unlike a riddle
It's as easy as counting to one-two-three
In other terms, letters L-Y-T-E
I'll tell you, you, you and all of you
In the back and in the middle, in the front
[Interlude]
Yo, that's it, paper thin, word up (Like that, word, tell 'em)
Lyte checkin' out (Yo, Lyte checkin' out for sure)
Special dedication to my DJ K-Rock in the place to be (Yeah, K-Rock in the place, that's right, that's right, that's his name, K-Rock)

[Outro]
Yeah, word
That dream is over, your yacht is sinking
Word
What? Word
Yo, word
It wasn't meant to be, you know? It just wasn't
Tihs
Uh-huh (Aha, aha, aha)
Yeah
Yeah
Hit the road, Sam, and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Sam, and don't you come back no more
Uh-huh
Word
Yeah
Like that
Maybe
Big toe and play with the middle
It's so simple, unlike a riddle
Three, E
You
There and over there and over there
Like that, yo, tell 'em
Yo, like that
Dedication
Yeah, K-Rock in the place to be
DJ K-Rock
