[Spoken Intro]
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
Welcome to the Appletree Café
Coming to you live and direct
Hit it, fellas

[Verse 1]
Who gave you permission to rearrange me?
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me?
Certainly, certainly not me

[Pre-Chorus]
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna fix me)
Was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna mold me)
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna kiss me)
I wasn't looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna control me)
Hold me
You're really tryin' to get creative with my love
And that's alright but you tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back and then you slipped me a mickey
[Chorus]
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me

[Post-Chorus]
See, the world is mine when I wake up
(When I wake up)
I don't need nobody tellin' me the time (Time)

[Verse 2]
Who gave you permission to rearrange me?
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me?
Certainly, certainly not me

Was not looking for no love affair, brother
(And now you wanna mold me)
I was not lookin' for no love affair, sugar
(And now you wanna kiss me)
I was not looking for no love affair
(And now you wanna control me)

Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me

[Post-Chorus]
I done told you that the world is mine when I wake up
(When I wake up)
