[Featuring Missy  Timbaland  Mocha] 
[Mocha] 
But uh anyway 
You could catch me any day 
Sipping Hennessey 
And my peeps get plenty way 
But anyways  to see that I hold this dough 
Cats fake it 
I made it 
I told you so 
Mocha Latte 
we no play 
stress free 
sexy and Montego Bay 
You know its a pity that 
y'all look like idiots 
Yo boo let me know when I should rip this cat 
[Nicole Ray  Verse 1] 
My man  he don't call me anymore 
We don't even kiss 
Am I his fool 
What must I do 
To keep him loving me 
All this love I give 
That ain't cool 
1- I got what you want (got what you want) 
I got what you need (got what you need) 
Can I get another shot 
This time Ima make it hot 
(repeat x 2) 
[Nicole Ray - Verse 2] 
I call my man at the crib 
He turned off his phone 
Said to call him back 
Why silly me 
Why didn't I suspect 
He was making love 
To someone else 
Boy you killin' me 
[Repeat 1] 
Oh yeah (x 4) 
[Repeat 1] 
[Missy Elliott] 
I'm sitting on the side of the curb 
With a pocket of herb 
I don't know if y'all heard 
But I'm high as a bird 
I can fly like Kelly 
I can glide like skates 
Me with no Timbaland 
Is like Puff with no Mase 
Wait , hold up 
Wait a minute, what you say 
Back it up, give me space 
Who that, Nicole Ray 
By the way, DJ, better play all day 
Make the whole world say Damn this sucker Ray 
Yo yo yo 
Yeah this be the jump 
That's making everybody want to bop their heads 
Haters, lovers, whatever 
Nicole Ray 
Timbaland 
Maa-goo 
Aaliyah 
Ginuwine 
Missy 
Playa 
[Repeat 1 (with Timbaland repeating Nicole Ray)]
