[Part I]

[Verse 1: 2D]
I'm a pale imitator of a boy in the sky
With a cap in his head and a knot in his tie
I'm the light in the mall when the power is gone
A shadow in a corner, just playing along
I'm only laying in my bed, I'm rolling aside
But if a get a car, I'm hoping to ride
Because I know if I ever say, "I'm leaving" to you
You've got a folding chair, and you don't know what to do
You'd sigh

[Chorus: James Murphy]
You wanna do it, but you don't know what you're doing, baby (A-a-a-a-aah)
You wanna feel it but you don't know what you're feeling tonight (Alright, how are we doing?)
And if you're thinking that I don't know what you're thinking, baby (A-a-a-a-aah)
You do more thinking and I'll go out and make it alright (Alright, how do you do?)

[Verse 2: 2D]
I'm impregnable, incredible, and set in the quo
I’m a late in my rider, not a heart and soul
I got a Saturday night, and nothing is dead
And if I ever had to do it, well, you know I wouldn’t care
I just get down, I love when I’m seen
And if I wanna talk back, the message is free
Then there’s a fire, a ray, a knot in sight
And if you get my tip, you get 'em a lot
You get a heart, ache
[Chorus: James Murphy]
You wanna do it, but you don't know what you're doing, baby (A-a-a-a-aah)
You wanna feel it but you don't know what you're feeling tonight (Alright, how are we doing?)
And if you're thinking that I don't know what you're thinking, baby (A-a-a-a-aah)
You do more thinking and I'll go out and make it alright (Alright, how do you do?)

[Post-Chorus: Andre 3000]
Every time we try, we get nowhere
Wouldn't it be nice if we were just normal people? Yeah
Trying so hard to act like we don't care
But it's true you do, nothing is left so I guess I'm right

[Verse 3: André 3000]
New word - onomatopoeia (Boom)
Quit acting like you don't wanna be here
Fuck around and get jumped like leap year
Glock in the glove make you really wanna leave me alone
Get the fuck on, gone
Okay, okay, okay, back to the happy song
Rap ain't nothing but the art of talking shit
My girl look pretty up there riding dick
My plaid past, my solid future
Asinine ass and a gorgeous coochie
I'm an OutKast but you're into me
Summer got mad 'cause winter blew me
That juicy fruit, that splooshy sploosh
Generation X on bloopty-bloop
Get doop, gotta get doopty doop
Everybody hit the floor, we through the roof
Like a chimney, I commend me
How come it be some lame ass n***a talking about, "Ah, he don't rap enough?"
But y'all rap a lot, and I'm like wrap it up, ho
You ain't Scarface, you ain't Willie D
You ain't Bushwick, you ain't killin' me
Better play with your motherfucking mama
Bet you still stay with your motherfucking mama
Keep sleeping on me, I'mma rock my pajamas
In the daytime, I swear, I promise
Dare a n***a say something, tear a n***a face off
How come blacks don't play baseball?
Y'all white, know y'all can taste all
This fly shit, I stay finna take off
[Refrain: André 3000]
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
You ain't fresh squeezed juice, n***a you that Tang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Is you really Slick Rick? Nope, you Dana Dane

[Verse 4: André 3000]
Let it up, head erupts
A lava language and the vocal volcanic (Yeah)
If it ain't fixed, don't broke it, don't panic (Yeah)
If it ain't hits, it ain't shit, goddamnit (Yeah)
If it ain't this, it ain't dope, it don't flush
And if it ain't hip or don't hop, well then hush
"Man they sound like-"
"Man they stole your-"
"Man they look like-"
Nope, it ain't us

[Refrain: André 3000]
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Is you really Slick Rick? Nope, you Dana Dane
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
Do ya damn thang, do ya thang-a-thang
You ain't fresh squeezed juice, n***a you that Tang
[Bridge: André 3000]
Every time we try, we get nowhere
Wouldn't it be nice if we were just normal people? Yeah
Trying so hard to act like we don't care, I don't care
But it's true you do, nothing is left, so I guess I'm right
Flip the page, our days are revelations, hide!
Space is strange, doctor, I've got no patience!
Oh, it's all a part of the process (Okay, okay)
Nothin's new, it's true, cool, I admit, shit, I guess you're right!

[Outro: André 3000]
I even mumble I'm the shit
Need mumble, I can mumble

Mumble cause I'm the shit
Yeah, I can mumble cause I'm the shit, I can mumble

And you know it!

Say it wit' me!

Sometimes I feel like the shit
Sometimes I feel like the shit, sometimes I feel like I'm shit
Sometimes I wanna stand for somethin', then sometimes wanna sit

Ohhh! It's all about me! I'm the shit!
I'm crawling back to the mic! I'm the shit!

I get smart on it, I'm the shit!

The sum of it; I'm the shit!
The sun love me, I'm the shit!
The moon is jealous of me!

When I stand up, everybody sit, I'm the shit
Asshole

[Part II]

[Verse: André 3000]
Sometime I feel like the shit, sometime I feel like I'm shit
Sometime I wanna stand for somethin', then sometime wanna sit
Didn't really plan on cussin', but sometime it just slip
When you the mayonnaise and the mustard, you can't relish in it
And when them panties turn to custard, who the hell do they miss?
And when the nanny fucks the husband, what does she tell the kids?
That's a whole 'nother discussion, we can't fit in our kicks
That's a whole 'nother discussion, you can't fit in these kicks

[Bridge: André 3000]
Yeah
The way I feel tonight, I think I'll wear these shades for the rest of my life
Yeah
Yeah
The way I feel tonight, I think I'll wear these shades for the rest of my life
The way I feel tonight, I think I'm-a wear these shades for the rest of my life
That way, you won't be able to see the disappointment in my eyes
Cause they don't lie (Don't lie), not to my eyes (Not to my eyes, not to my eyes)
Nah, they don't lie (They don't lie), not to my eyes, (Not to my eyes), un-un

[Outro: André 3000]
(They don't lie, they don't lie)
(Not to my eyes, not to my eyes)
(Not to my eyes, not to my eyes)
(Not to my eyes, not to my eyes)
