Songtexte She Wanna Go to the Movies - Dr. AK Sterling

She wanna go to the movies
Now J-Lo can't sing, but even she knows love don't cost a thing
And if that's true, then why should it cost just to get to know you
Some say that's the way of the world, I say something ain't right

Like the other night, I met this fine girl, got her number, and when I called her, I told
Her that I wanted to get to know her, and that she should come over
But she said, she wanted to go to the movies
I told her I'd make her some Kool-Aid and teach her how to play chess, but she wanted

To go to the movies
Despite the fact that I didn't even ask her to do anything that even rhymed with that
Now I'm not saying she don't deserve to go, but without a doubt, going to the movies on
The first date is played out

And I'm far too creative, truly, but she wanna go to the movies
How I'm gonna get to know you if we can't talk in a dark room with a hundred people
And a twelve dollar soda
This conversation should be over, but I ain't rich

And I ain't gonna make it rain, I work hard for mine
I'd rather send it to Africa, I ain't T-Pain
I don't want to bartend to order stripper, and I don't think I should have to spend money
Just to get to know you a little quicker

And likewise, you don't have to spend money just to get to know me
I'm the type of brother to back back in the day told the stripper to go and buy a drink for me
Honestly, all this premature tricking is an atrocity, but she, she wanna go to the movies

Don't get it twisted, I'm a gentleman
Open doors, take out trash, wash your car, I even pump your gas
But if you want me to take you to the movies, well then let me ask
I ain't talking about going Dutch, I'm an African and a gentleman, it ain't that much

I'll pay for it, but maybe I didn't get paid yet, maybe you don't need to know all that
Maybe I got bills and responsibility, like a whole lot of rent, gas, lights, ties, and utilities
You're killing me

Why settle for a movie
Let's sit down and conversate, that way I can find out what you like and what you hate
Your dreams, principles, and what you're looking for in a mate
Find out if we're compatible before it's too late

I might want to take you horseback riding, but you don't like the outside
I might want to take you on a helicopter ride, but you might be afraid of heights
I might want to take you to dinner, then to the top of a mountain that overlooks the city
And all their lights

What about a zoo
The beach
How about Chinatown
That's cool

But, she wanna go to the movies
Ain't nothing playing with you
And all I'm saying is that maybe some of y'all need a baller, or a brother that still live
With his mama, and has a little bit more money in his pocket

Some of y'all ladies need to stop charging brothers for your time and letting your looks
Make you a profit
I know you fine, but you still need to stop it
Please, don't be shallow, no matter how you feel, cause to a real brother like me, you'll

Just lose your appeal
I heard John Legend say some girls love the radio, but I guess they love the movies too
Girls, they have groupies too, but I ain't one of them
Is that what you want

I'm confident that I got more to offer than my wallet
Some brothers is only confident in they wallet, I can't call it, and a nice whip, and in a
Nice fit that cost about six
I don't think so

There's just much more to life
What's wrong with us
I thought maybe the truth would fix us, but she still want to go to the movies
She says she don't feel comfortable coming to my house like that

Well now, is that a fact
You know, in some countries, they'd be rude
What
You'd rather I cook

I'll cook you some food, and later we can paint
Now, I'm no saint, but oh, I know, you're not sure if I'm a psycho
Understandable
I have those pitiful, ungetwittable brothers you met before me to thank for that stereotype

Yo, they was whack, but I'm tight
I'ma make you laugh, make you think
It is my endeavor to make sure you have a wonderful night
And besides, some women are psycho too

Psycho, it's true
I'm giving you my address, hoping that that ain't you
Cause that ain't cool
Just popping up, you stalking, two in the morning, talking about what up

That's not okay
So here's what you do
Don't assume the worst is gonna happen
Simply write my name and address down, and then do a map quest

As far as the rest, make a copy and give it to a friend or family member
Remember, tell them when and where you're going
Make sure you got minutes on your phone, and then come out
Don't be scared

I just wanted to get to know you
That's why I even bothered inviting you over in the first place
But you know what
I'm straight

You better hurry up though
Your movie finna start
You don't wanna be late
