[Intro]
(spoken)
I feel like hip hop
Used to be a voice for the voiceless, you know?
And now it's become, at least in the mainstream,
A symbol of misogyny, gay panic, fiscal irresponsibility.
So I figure,
If you can't beat 'em,
Join 'em.
[Verse 1]
G Hittin' the club up vip D I got a fake mustache and a fake id. Em I look like Wooly Willy C With a really wooly willy. G And I bypass the bouncer, D Pass by an ex and I flex and bounce her, wowser. Em Look at all of Bo's hoes C Looking for a ride on Bo's hose. G D And I spot a little Latino, booty so big call it Oprah's ego. Em C We go to it, through it, she says, "Dios mía mi amigo!" G D Pull it out, stick it in your mouth, and I bust in the back of ya. Em C Swallow bitch, there's people starving in Africa!
[Chorus]
G Single every single day D Do it every single way Em Make the single ladies say C Oooh Bo G And if I were gay, D Though I swear I'm straight, Em I'd make the fellas say...
[Verse 2]
G You're an ice cream sundae with a cherry on top, D But careful, cherry, 'cause I'm the King of Pop. Em Pop pop pop goes my weasel, C Now ya looking like Jackson Pollock's easel. G My suggestion is: D You don't blow 'til you know what congestion is, Em Swallow when you know what digestion is. C Follow Bo, the only question is: G Have you been splattered before D By the mad-hatter matador? Em Cake-batter never more C It don't matter whether you're G Spanish, French, D Swedish or Cambodian, Em C I'll slime you so hard you could be on Nickelodeon.
[Chorus] (with slightly different ending)
G Single every single day D Do it every single way Em Make the single ladies say C Oooh Bo G And if I were gay, D Though I swear I'm straight, Em I'd make the fellas say C Oooh Bo G Oh Bo-o, D ooh Bo, Bo Em A-a-Oooh Bo, C Oooh Bo, G D Oooh Bo
[Verse 3]
G You think that you can handle me? D Girl, don't make me laugh. Em I said my junk is bipolar C It'll split you in half (yea). G And if you're lucky, D I might just bring you home, Em And I'll have you going down C Like you're growin' an extra chromosome. G And when you grab me, D Don't grab me by my buns Em C 'Cause I got a bad case of the ru-ruunnnns. G D I got the runs Em C I got the ru-you-you-uuuns
[Chorus]
G Single every single day D Do it every single way Em Make the single ladies say C Oooh Bo G And if I were gay, D Though I swear I'm straight, Em I'd make the fellas say C Oooh Bo
[Bridge]
(play G D Em C throughout) (Spoken)
I wanna break it down for ya'll
I came from the streets, with nothin'
Now I'm makin' hit records
For my people still livin' in the streets,
Still livin' in poverty, I wanna tell you
I'm doin' this for you.
My success is your success.
And I know you may be thinkin',
Hey, if you really believe that,
Why don't you use some of your money
To help rebuild the neighborhood
Instead of putting spinning rims on a gold jet ski?
And to that I say (uh, chorus is comin' up):
[Chorus]
G Single every single day D Do it every single way Em Make the single ladies say C Oooh Bo G And if I were gay, D Though I swear I'm straight Em I'd make the fellas say C Unh Unh!
[Verse 4]
G You gotta fume like a tuna, D I'll smell ya later. Em I met a fat chick C And I fucked her in an elevator. G D It was wrong on so many levels. Em C It was wrong on so many le-le-le-levels. G D It was wrong on so many levels (unh). Em C D It was wrong on, it was wrong on, it was wrong on
[Chorus] (lyric variation with key change)
A Single every single E Do it every single F#m Pop that single like a Pringle jingle D Oooh Bo A This song's almost completed E All this little ditty needed F#m Instrument that's double reeded: D The oboe
