Lyrics Tightrope

Monae and left foot
Woah, another day
I'll take your pain away
Get here
Dubbed in
Hoo, come on
Some people talk about you like they know all about you
When you get down they doubt you
And when you dip it on the scene
Yeah, they're talking 'bout it 'cos they can't dip on the scene
Watch you talk about it t-t-t-talk about it
When you get elevated they love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters keep getting funky on the scene
Why they jumping 'round you they trying take all your dreams but you can't allow it
'Cos baby whether you're high or low whether you're high or low
You gotta tip on the tightrope tip tip tip tip on the tightrope
Baby, baby whether you're high or low
Baby whether you're high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
Now let me see you do the tightrope
And I'm still tipping on it see I'm not walking on it
Or trying to run around it this ain't no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead, yeah
I'm talking 'bout you
I'll keep on blaming the machine, yeah
I'm talking 'bout it t-t-t-talking 'bout it
I can't complain about it
I gotta keep my balance
And just keep dancing on it we're getting funky on the scene
Yeah, you know about it like a star on the screen watch me tip all on it
Now baby whether
I'm high or low
Baby whether you're high or low
You gotta tip on the tightrope yeah, tip on the tightrope
Baby, baby whether you're high and low
Baby whether you're high or low
Tip on the tightrope baby let me see your tight rope and I'm still tipping on it
You gotta keep your balance or you fall into the gap, it's a challenge but I manage 'cos
I'm cautious with the strap
No damage to your cameras damn I thought that can I passy
Why you don't want no friction like the back of a matchbook
That I pass as I will forward you and your MacBook
Clothes shows will shut you down before we go go backwards
Act up, and whether we high or low we gonna get back up
Like the dow jones and nasdaq sorta like a thong in an ass crack come on
I tip on alligators and little rattle snakers
But I'm another flavor something like a terminator
Ain't no equivocating
I fight for what I believe
Why you talking 'bout it she, she, she's talking 'bout it
Some calling me a sinner some calling me a winner
I'm calling you to dinner and you know exactly what I mean
And I'm talkin 'bout you you can rock or you can leave watch me tip without you
No, no, now whether you're high or low whether I'm high or low
I'm gonna tip on the tightrope, hmm
Baby, baby whether you're high or low, high or low
I got to tip on the tightrope now baby tip on the tightrope
You can't get too high
I said you can't get too low
Ha, 'cos you get too high no you'll surely be low
One, two, three, ho
Hoo, hoo
Yeah, yeah now shut up, yeah
Aw
Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok ok, ok, ok, ok
Yeah, now put some voodoo on it
Ladies and gentlemen
The funky is on section in the tribalist
The way they do that yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
The way they do that
The way they do that
The way they do that
We call that classy brass
Come on, come on, come on come on, come on
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Well it's a pain line
Oh
Well it's a pain line
Got me right man
You're in your right man
Come on, huh, huh, huh
Do you mind if I play the ukulele just like a little lady
Yo, yo, yo, yo
Do you mind if I play the ukulele yo, yo, yo
They goes in, they goes in just like a little lady they goes in
Yo, they goes in, they goes in
As I play the ukulele they goes in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
As I play my ukulele
Heehahahahahaha
Just like a little baby
Just like a little lady
Ukulele, ukulele
