Certainly
Erykah Badu
Verse 1:
Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly not me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna fix me
Was not looking for a love affair
And now you want to mold me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna kiss me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna control me
Hold me
I know you're trying 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
(4 times)
Verse 2:
The world is mine
When I wake up
I don't need nobody telling me the time
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly not me
Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna fix me
Was not looking for a love affair
And now you want to mold me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna kiss me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna control me
Hold me
I know you're trying to get creative with my love
And that's real cute, but
You got to get a little tricky
Turned my back, and then you slipped me a mickey
Chorus
The world is mine
When I wake up
I don't need nobody telling me the time
Certainly not me
I was not looking, was not looking for no love affair
Certainly not me
Certainly
