Be A Lady Lyrics by Hopie

Dulce Vita

2011

Verse 1:
Hello good morning
I’d like to somehow get started
About the oldest topic inside the book
Turn through your diary, take a look
It looks to me to be some kind of a theme
Know that you know what I mean
Seems that women have been engagin’ in sin
Since the beginning that’s how it’s been
Ooh girl we done it all
We done told each other off and on
’til we gone off on our separate ways
So set inside our ways
And although we are oh so similar
It’s like we chose opposin’ each other
We talkin’ that sh*t and throwin’ that dirt, c’mon
Chorus:
This is when you start to learn a thing or two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
Your girls’ll love you, kin don’t wanna chop you up in two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
Verse 2:
It’s like a Lindsay Lohan nightmare
The highs and lows of life bear
For better than ever it seem
When we were livin’ the teenage dream
I mean I bet there’s a better reason than
Feedin’ upon the drama, we
Thrive upon the hate
Women are catty, oh so fake but they
Really the same as I
Starin’, throwin’ around side-eye
And gossip rumors around the school
Will cause some b*tches to do the fool
You be appalled that after all of that some
Chicks never learn
Like cattle walkin’ into the slaughter
Gossip is a lady’s altar, girl
Chorus:
This is when you start to learn a thing or two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
Your girls’ll love you, kin don’t wanna chop you up in two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
Bridge:
So here we go again the, same storyline
The lady’s sensitive but never keep that in her mind
Pick up the telephone and, spread the evening news
“Oh did you hear that? Oh hell naw, ain’t that the truth?”
Verse 3:
So here’s a lesson
We’re primpin’ and primin’ and preppin’
Our makeup is simply flawless and our bodies are so profess[?]
Our care recite the curls and girl your nails are just to die
But that women are women hatin’
Uglifies and guess what it suggests to guys
And when you’re petty, no no girl that ain’t pretty
And no matter how fine you are
It don’t matter if your attitude is sh*tty
And we’re shifty
We’re wasting our time, ain’t that a shame
So how we expectin’ a man to call us by our names
When we’re playin’ this game?
Chorus:
This is when you start to learn a thing or two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
Your girls’ll love you, kin don’t wanna chop you up in two
To be a lady, be, be a lady
