(*scratching of "let me tell you" from Pharcyde's "Passin' Me By"*)
2
[verse 1 - The Third Eye]
3
For the first third
4
I had to borrow three words from Stevie for the issue
5
For what it's worth I'm calling this official
6
To live and die for you is to live and die with you
7
If what we got ain't superficial or artificial
8
I feel at home with you if I share my dome with you
9
Develop your mind to understand mine and grow with you
10
It's hypothetical I have yet to meet you
11
But all it takes is time well spent alone with you
12
?? could move along to reach the 8th rank
13
To resurrect with the grace of a queen she will receive and reflect
14
Knowing just what I mean when I claim that I protect my useful land
15
Like the fearless grown man that I am
16
With the plan to expand it's painstakin'
17
Like feedin' food for thought and regulatin' mental bakin'
18
Correcting each other when we're mistaken and debatin'
19
Turns to arguing but other ?? leads to the best earthquakin'
20
But still in all I needs no reminder
21
That God will be the maker and owner but not the finder
22
So in this wilderness I will reserve the Best Part
23
For each queen I meet I make it known from the start
24
When I tell ya like this.....
25
(Chorus w/ same background scratching as the intro)
26
"You can get the third;
27
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
28
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
29
Eye or the leg or finger if deferred
30
Imma tell ya like this, you can get the third
31
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
32
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
33
Eye or the Leg or the Bird..."
34
[verse 2 - The Third Leg]
35
I set the speed in which you twist upon ya axis
36
From changing ya thoughts to turnin' over on the mattress
37
The fact is the culture that I practice
38
Prescribes me the father of the civil so most muthafuckas lack this
39
More often than not the type of woman I attract is
40
Lookin' to discover just another piece of steel
41
And you can test my heart ??
42
But see I can't be trapped by my magnetic field
43
To bring it down to earth I'm talking bout your sex appeal
44
You've got the good ?? and yes you know I know tha deal
45
Not even too concerned on who's the last and next to feel
46
Cuz the sword that a weild sports a lubricated shield
47
The only problem is you never take the time to build
48
And then you've got the nerve to say I treat you like a freak?!
49
I try to chill and conversate with you but ?? don't stop
50
And that's my spot yo we hardly even speak
51
So get to know the mind behind the dick that I'm slingin'
52
Next time when I'm done yo try not to fall asleep
53
But still in all I really can't complain about ya "brain"
54
Cuz you're the first on my mind when the time comes to creep
55
That's why Imma tell ya like this....
56
(Chorus w/ scratch of "my dear my dear my dear you do not know me")
57
"You can get the third;
58
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
59
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
60
Eye or the leg or finger if deferred
61
Imma tell ya like this, you can get the third
62
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
63
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
64
Eye or the Leg or the Bird..." {*echoing*
65
[verse 3 - The Third Finger]
66
I could've been chillin' with peeps
67
I should've been spending more time relaxing asleep
68
I woulda been pushin' up on girls like the first two
69
But instead I was wasting time fuckin' with you!
70
On some bottom line shit I know I played myself in retrospect
71
Givin' you the respect of a top choice select
72
On some "never again shit" I expect
73
I chalk it up to trial and error but I can't say I'm over it yet
74
Out of sight mind and body could've sworn you were the best of both worlds
75
In my eyes yo, you had no flaws
76
Then I learned it was to good to be true
77
So now my two favorite records are "Wildflower" & "Truly Yours"
78
I can't front though, you had me for a second
79
I was caught up in your words overlookin' your ways
80
Truth was seen but not heard you was lyin' for days
81
Just to find yourself lost in your own damn age
82
Now my vision's clarified like Windex
83
You get the peace sign without the index
84
From ex to next--too complex?
85
I'll translate: FUCK YOU
86
Clean bill of health still I wish I never stuck you
87
Claim to be my Earth but you too trife
88
More like Mercury you came close but too hot to sustain life
89
So now ya cast out far out like Pluto
90
Three strikes through ?? but the choosen few
91
So Imma tell ya like this....
92
(Chorus w/ scratch of "my dear my dear my dear you do not know me")
93
"You can get the third;
94
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
95
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
96
Eye or the leg or finger if deferred
97
Imma tell ya like this, you can get the third
98
Eye or the leg or the finger if deferred
99
I know what's on ya mind so sis ya need to say the word
100
Eye or the Leg or the Bird (*scratching of "Passin' Me By"*)
