Lyrics

Verse 1 -

Nas:
Yea, yea, yea, yea... /
Uh, yo /
Ladies love what i've been through /
Blood on my timb boots /
Snub noses / club closes down when my mens shoot /
But she cant stand i'm sharing everything with the fam /
That means them too / flat screen / benz coupe /
Plus I entertain bosses /
At my spanish-style, lagafell furnished up fortress /
But look at miss thing / in alexander mcqueen /
Jizette bizatti / the sexiest body /
And I / bet you see properly /
Heard how I love 'em and leave 'em /
But she still wanna suck him and eat him /
'Cause i'm a poet, a preacher, and a pimp with words /
A thief who stole her heart / a prince she deserves /

Kelis:
I should have know by the way that you stare /
Eyeing passes by like your rich but life ain't fair /
But ya / make my record skip / make my record skip /
Make my record skip / make my record skip /

Hook -

Kelis (nas):
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /

Verse 2 -

Nas:
I take / I dont ask for nothing /
You fake / I look past your frontin' / for cash i'm a glutton /
I'm a bad influence yo / have your marriage ruined /
By hanging with me you get ass from some new chicks /
My life's influent / cash and music /
Honeys I hit hear my song / they get mad and lose it /
'Cause i'm a sex crazed bastard /
I hit kelis with a cushion cut engagement ring / we done / that's it /

Kelis:
I should have seen in the way you touched my hand /
Shuffling your car keys / it sounded like a gentleman /
But ya / make my record skip / make my record skip /
Make my record skip / make my record skip /

Hook -

Kelis (nas):
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug (yea, yea, yea, you know)/
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /

Verse 3 –

Nas:
I dont mean mug or ice grill / 'cause I dont have to /
My eyebrow shaped like a half moon and I dont raise em /
The kid you cant budge him or faze him /
My money's amazing / honey, black, puerto rican, and asian /
What a mean look / me and you / the king is hooked /
Got you the cayenne green porsche to push /
They off the hook /
Giving haters nightmares walking /
You smothered by a popular gangsta / perfect boyfriend

Kelis:
I should have heard it in the way you said my name /
While I analyze your tone you were formulating game /
But ya / make my record skip / make my record skip /
Make my record skip / make my record skip

Hook -

Kelis (nas):
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
I woulda never talked to you if i'da known you was a popular thug /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
Hey, popular thug (your damn right) /
