Janelle Monáe
Givin’ Em What They Love
[Intro: Prince]
Wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna love
I wanna
Give it to you
[Verse 1: Janelle Monáe]
I am sharper than a razor
Eyes made of lasers
Bolder than the truth
They want me locked up in the system
'Cause I'm on a mission
Blame it on my youth
Too long, I've been out here on my own
Now I'm 'bout to bring it home
Like a rolling stone
I ain't never been afraid to die
Look a man in the eye
[Chorus: Janelle Monáe]
I come to give you what you love
It’s time to give you what you love
I’ma give you what you love
Giving you what you love
[Verse 2: Prince & Janelle Monáe]
I am sharper than a switchblade
First and last of what God made and that's the truth
But man, keep on tryin' to hold me back
While another chicken head come home to roost
Too strong, try to do me wrong
And the last one standin' will order and command you to dance
Oh, dance
Run tell your preacher and your teacher
[Chorus: Janelle Monáe & Prince]
I come to give you what you love
I got to give you what you love (It’s time to give you what you love)
It’s time to give you what you love
(Givin' you what, givin' you what, givin' you what you love)
Giving you what you love
Give you some love (Give you love, give you what you want)
[Bridge: Janelle Monáe, Janelle Monáe & Prince & Prince]
I said take your time, take what you love
Baby, just enough, but never too much
Baby, take your time, take what you love
And when that baby cry, you better look at that baby
Take your time, take what you love
Baby, just enough, but never too much
Baby, take your time
I wanna, I wanna give you some love
Won’t you give me what you love?
Yeah, alright, yeah, alright
Gonna give you some love
Some love, some love, some love (Give me what you love)
[Outro: Janelle Monáe, Janelle Monáe & Prince & Prince]
Two dimes walked up in the buildin'
Tall and concealin', wearin' fancy things
Chopped up with a knife, hammered like a screw
When they walked in the room we didn't know what to do
One looked at me and I looked back
She said, "Can you tell me where the party's at?" (Tell me where the party at)
She followed me back to the lobby
Yeah, she was lookin' at me for some undercover love
Wearin' fancy things
Oh, we didn’t know what to do
Tell me where the party at
