"5th Floor (10pm)" lyrics
Cautious Clay & Q-Tip Lyrics
She singing, "Maria, Maria"
She needed a familiar song, but I needed to re-up
On beat four of that drum
Arms swinging like a preacher
'Cause I been knowing it's calm when I'm with you
She turned me to a believer
When I can't decide
Got four roses in hand
We in the Key Foods line
I know you wanted Mclovin'
Before that feeling subsides
She was more than enough
So what's a good thing gone if I got you?
I know it's something new
We ain't singing the blues
I wanna see this through
All the party purveyors are walking in
But one invitee with a grin
Kind of floats like the wind as she two steps inside
Spinning, pirouetting with a glide
I invited you specifically to take the bait
And you smile later confiding that you couldn't wait
All this magic and charisma got us moving like a thriller
You're a P.Y.T, baby, be mine, that's a date
The Righteous Brothers, Smothers, and others
Laurels and Hardys, two folks at parties
Cokes and Bacardi, curry, basmati
Sonny Chiba and karate
These are pairings of camaraderie
But I'm telling everybody
That the girl I just met won't leave me with regret, and ain't a—?
So what's a good thing gone if I got you?
I know it's something new
We ain't singing the blues
I wanna see this through
What's a good thing gone
If I, if I got you?
What's a good thing gone if I got you?
She needed a familiar song, but I needed to re-up
On beat four of that drum
Arms swinging like a preacher
'Cause I been knowing it's calm when I'm with you
She turned me to a believer
When I can't decide
Got four roses in hand
We in the Key Foods line
I know you wanted Mclovin'
Before that feeling subsides
She was more than enough
So what's a good thing gone if I got you?
I know it's something new
We ain't singing the blues
I wanna see this through
All the party purveyors are walking in
But one invitee with a grin
Kind of floats like the wind as she two steps inside
Spinning, pirouetting with a glide
I invited you specifically to take the bait
And you smile later confiding that you couldn't wait
All this magic and charisma got us moving like a thriller
You're a P.Y.T, baby, be mine, that's a date
The Righteous Brothers, Smothers, and others
Laurels and Hardys, two folks at parties
Cokes and Bacardi, curry, basmati
Sonny Chiba and karate
These are pairings of camaraderie
But I'm telling everybody
That the girl I just met won't leave me with regret, and ain't a—?
So what's a good thing gone if I got you?
I know it's something new
We ain't singing the blues
I wanna see this through
What's a good thing gone
If I, if I got you?
What's a good thing gone if I got you?
