"Stepped out my house, stopped short, oh no.." [Slick Rick]

"Why is my thing-thing burnin like this?"

[Nurse] You BURNING?

"Stepped out my house, stopped short, oh no.." [Slick Rick]

"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"



[Ice Cube]

I went to the free clinic, it was filled to capacity

Now how bad can a piece of ass be?

Very bad, so I had to make the trip

and thank God, I didn't have the drips

I was there so a hoe couldn't gimme that

Just to get - twenty free jimmy hats

Now look who I see

Ain't that... yeah, that's the bitch from up the street!

With the big fat tail

who always told Cube to go to hell

She thought she was wiser

Now she's sittin in the waitin room, burnin like heat-mizer

Yeah I see ya

First Miss Thang, now Miss Gonorrhea

Man it's a trip how the world keeps turnin

It's 1991, and look who's burnin



[Chorus One: various samples (repeat 2X)]



"Does it get you hot?"

"It's got me hot!"

"This is a girl playin hard to get.." [Slick Rick]

"Burnin up, burnin!"

"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"



[Ice Cube]

Now everybody is a victim, you can go see 'em

and you'll hear more claps than the Coliseum

Sittin there all quiet and embarrassed

Whup - there go that bitch who was careless

I remember - she wouldn't give the cock

to anybody who lived on the block

Now hoe, look what you got

BEND THAT BIG ASS OVER for the shot

Cause somebody is pipin hot

Drippin like a faucet, I'm glad I didn't toss it

Got you a college boy, who was worse than me

and he probably fucked the whole university

Still wanted him to dick you down, kick you down

with some bucks, now who got fucked?

With a nigga for the money he's earnin

but ask for some water bitch, and look who's burnin



[Chorus Two: various samples (repeat 2X)]



"Does it get you hot?"

"Can you get that?"

"This is a girl playin hard to get.." [Slick Rick]

"Burnin up, burnin!"

"Why is my thing-thing burnin like this?"



[Interlude: more samples]



"It burns.."

[man moaning in pain, urinating sound]

"Fitfully, sputteringly to it's end.."

{aww shit!!}

".. at which there is, a little surprise"

{That stupid ass..} "BITCH!!!!"



[Ice Cube]

Yo, it ain't my fault you got the heebie-jibbies

but you still try to act like you didn't see me

So I walk over, and say "Hi,

bitch, don't try to act surprised!"

You shoulda put a sock on the pickle

and your pussy wouldn't be blowin smoke signals

Man, this is gonna kill 'em

Guess who got a big fat dose of penicillin?

They'll ask, "Who?", and I tell 'em you

The new leader of the big booty crew

And after the day, I'm sorry to say

You come through the neighborhood, you couldn't give it away

To a nigga, who's out to get major paid

but you'll have him, pissin out razorblades

But a bitch like you..ll be returnin with the H-I-V, R. I.P.



[Chorus Three: various samples (repeat 2X)]



"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]

"I'm burning up!"

"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]

"You can't trust a big butt and a smile.." [KRS-One]

"I'm burning up!"

"What have I, done stuck my duck in?"



[Outro]

".. done stuck my duck in?"

"I'm burning up!"

"It's hot.. I'm burning up!"
