I Ain`t Tha 1

Ice Cube, do you think you could give
Me some money to get my hair done?
What's wrong with your hair right now?
Well, you know I get it done every week and I need my nails done too
Look, I'ma tell you like this

I ain't the one, the one to get played like a pooh butt
See, I'm from the street, so I know what's up
On these silly games that's played by the women
I'm only happy when I'm goin' up in 'em
But you know I'm a menace to society
But girls in biker shorts are so fly to me
So I step to 'em with aggression
Listen to the kid and learn a lesson today

See, they think we narrow-minded
'Cause they got a cute face and big-behinded
So I walk over and say, "How you doin'?"
See, I'm only down for screwin'
But you know, you gotta play it off cool

'Cause if they catch you slippin', you'll get schooled
And they'll get you for your money, son

Next thing you know, you're gettin' they hair and they nails done
Fool, now I'll let you show 'em off

But when it comes to sex, they got a bad cough
Or a headache, it's all give and no take
Run out of money and watch your heart break
They'll drop you like a bad habit
'Cause a brother with money, yo, they gotta have it
Messin' with me, though, they gets none
You can't juice Ice Cube, girl, 'cause I ain't the one

Girl, you gotta get these brothers for all the money you can, honey
'Cause if they ain't got no money, they can't
Do nothin' for me but get out of my face
I know what you mean, girl, it ain't no
Wise to dump it off unless you got dollars

Sometimes I used to wonder

How the hell an ugly dude get a fine girl's number

He's gettin' juiced for his ducats

I tell a girl in a minute, yo, I drive a bucket
And won't think nothin' of it

She can ride or walk, either leave it or love it
I'll show her that I'm not the O, the N-E
Say I'm a ruthless N-I-double-G-A
'Cause I'm gamin' on a female that's gamin' on me

You know I spell girl with a B
A brother like me is only out for one thing
I think with my ding-a-ling, but I won't bring
No flowers to your doorstep when we goin' out
'Cause you'll take it for granted, no doubt
And after the date, I won't wanna do the wild thing
You want lobster? Huh, I'm thinkin' Burger King
And when I take you, you get frustrated

You can't juice Ice Cube and you hate it

But you see, I don't go nuts

Over girls like you with the big ol' butts
It start comin' out the pocket to knock it
But when the damage is done

You can only lay me, girl, you can't play me, girl
For the simple fact that I ain't the one

I don't care how they look, if they got money
We can hook up, but they ain't gettin' none
Yeah, I just make 'em think they gon' get some
Play with they mind a little bit and get that money
Oh, Ice Cube, can I have some money, please?

Give you money? Why bother?

'Cause you know I'm lookin' nothin' like your father
Girl, I can't be played or ganked

Ganked means gettin' took for your bank
Or your gold or your money or somethin'
Nine times out of ten, she's givin' up nothin'
They get mad when I put it in perspective
But let's see if my knowledge is effective

To the brothers, man, they robbin' you blind
'Cause they fine with a big behind, but pay it no mind
Keep your money to yourself, homie
And if you got enough game, you'll get her name
And her number without goin' under
You can't leave 'em and love 'em and stay above 'em
I used to get no play, now she stay behind me
'Cause I said I had a Benz 190

But I lied and played the one
Just to get some, now she feels dumb
To my homies, it's funny

But that's what you get tryna play me for my money
Now, don't you feel used?
But I don't give a hoot, huh, because I knock boots
You shouldn't be so damn material
And try to milk Ice Cube like cereal
How many times do I have to say it?
'Cause if I have to go get a gun

You girls will learn, I don't burn
You think I'm a sucker, but I ain't the one

But you said you loved me
I don't see no rings on this finger
Why you doin' me like this? I love you
Yeah, you love my money, I got what I wanted, beat it
