Ajax, she kept our butts from going to the clink
She got the fight she was itching for
Guess she needed to prove herself
And Swan's off canoodling with Mercy
Split off and left us
Naw, I know Swan, it's all tactical, Mercy's just an extra soldier to help get us back home
Now that we're down Ajax—
And Cleon, if we get home tonight, what'll we have left?
14th Street, Union Square!
Uh, finally! Got to the meeting place, we just wait till the others get here
No way, check out this sweater club
Matching cardigans? That's cute
You don't wear something like that unless you really care
About looking a fool
We ain't fools
We're the Bizzies
Where you headed? Look like you've been on the run
What you know about that?
They said you all killed Cyrus
But we know you didn't Now that we see you
Not y'all
She got the fight she was itching for
Guess she needed to prove herself
And Swan's off canoodling with Mercy
Split off and left us
Naw, I know Swan, it's all tactical, Mercy's just an extra soldier to help get us back home
Now that we're down Ajax—
And Cleon, if we get home tonight, what'll we have left?
14th Street, Union Square!
Uh, finally! Got to the meeting place, we just wait till the others get here
No way, check out this sweater club
Matching cardigans? That's cute
You don't wear something like that unless you really care
About looking a fool
We ain't fools
We're the Bizzies
Where you headed? Look like you've been on the run
What you know about that?
They said you all killed Cyrus
But we know you didn't Now that we see you
Not y'all
