about

Donwill: Tanya Morgan songs have to come from somewhere and this is one of the original demos that I forwarded to the guys after weeks of 'should I keep this for myself' contemplation. The song actually went thru a few mutations, the demo version then became the 'VPND' version that I was gonna just keep on suburban sprawl but it was one of those situations where not giving this song to the group was definitely for the greater good, and I'm sure a lot of people out there agree. I think the idea for the song actually came from the experience of being at a bar in Adam's Morgan (DC STAND UP) and my random convo being mistaken for holleration.

SuhBURB: This is my Dilla tribute. I remember the day I figured out how he did the Jackson 5 flip that The Roots used for Can't Stop This and losing my damn mind. The idea that you could chop a sample and speed it up without changing the pitch – and at the same time making the rhythm of it swing more and more – just fascinated me. And as much as I love that the full TM version of this is what they open their shows with, I really like Don's demo version more, especially since I had a chance to finish the beat to my liking here.

lyrics

VERSE 1: man listen isn't women within criticism/ it'd be different if they didnt try to be so temptin/ cant still let hoes, tempt me with stilletos/ pedicured to the ones with the paint peeled toes/ like i aint get close to taken her outta her clothes/ know she wrong hittin on a man who faithful and yo/ cant keep a man so she out to lease another womans/ claim its for the sex only but distressed she runnin to him/ she dont ask or assume its really somethin she dont wanna know/ that way she dont feel like she bein a hoe/ maybe thats what turns her on tho forbidden fruit/ in the open tellin lies about her hidden truth/ sippin juice and vodka talkin bout nothin in particular/ got it all wrong she aint hardly how i figured her/ this is where i get off peace, see ya later VERSE 2: man listen isnt women within criticism/ its a given if you speakin then you tryna get with em/ not necessarily true, see what society do/ a simple conversation turns to inuendo then *POOF*/ now its like im in the wrong guys and girls cant get along/ cant just be friends, gotta see or show a thong/ gone head girl im grown, beyond being sex prone/ dont mistake idle chatter for you gettin hit on/ they got us all confused when they say that dudes/ know three kinda women, no appendix to the rules/ that every girl we know we either tryin, cant or wont cut/ thats fairly accurate until you fall in love or grow up/ but yall in luck you know what? heres a little secret/ if i say hi to a woman its because i feel like speakin/ just polite was raised right in fact i got a woman/ whats the screwface for all i said was how you doin
