Ms. Fat Booty Lyrics
Artist: Mos Def
Album: Black On Both Sides
(sung)
I know I can't afford to stop
for a moment.. that it's too soon.. to forget
I know I can't afford to stop
for a moment.. that it's too soon.. to forget
[Mos Def] speaking over sung vocals
Man.. for real
I was in love with this girl y'know
I was.. to' up dog! I'm tellin you man
She was wild man.. f'real
It's just too.. let me tell you about her
[Mos Def]
Yo in she came with the same type game
The type of girl givin out the fake cell phone and name
Big fame, she like cats with big thangs
Jewels chip, money clip, phone flip, the six range
I seen her on the ave, spotted her more than once
Ass so fat that you could see it from the front
She spot me like paparazzi
Shot me a glance in that catwoman stance with the fat booty pants
Hot damn!
What your name love, where you came from?
Neck and wrist laced up, very little make-up
The slims at the Rebok gym tone your frame up
Is sugar and spice the only thing that you made of?
I tried to play it low key but couldn't keep it down
Asked her to dance she was like â'yo, I'm leaving now'
An hour later, sounds from Jamaica
She sippin Crys straight up, shaking, winding her waist up
Scene two: my fam throwin the jam
For Reed is on the stand big things is in the plan
The brother Big Moon make space for me to move in
Hey, this my man Mos, baby let me introduce
I turn around
Say, you is the same pretty girl that I had priorly observed
Trying to play me for the herb (yeah, that's her)
Shocked as hell she couldn't get it together
I just played it low and pretended I never met her
â'How you feelin', â'oh I'm fine', â'my name is Mos', â'I'm Sharice'
I heard so much good about you its nice to finally meet
We moved to the booth reserved crew especially
And honey love ended up sittin directly next to me
I'm type polite but now I'm lookin at her skeptically
Cause baby girl got all the right weaponry
Designer fabric, shoes, and accessories
Chinky eyes, sweet voice is *fucking* on me mentally
We conversated, made a laugh, yeah you know me bro
Even though I know the steelo, she wild sweet yo
I'm about to merc, I say peace to the family
She hop up like â'how you gonna leave before you dance with me?'
[hook]
(sung)
I know I can't afford this life
For a moment
That its too soon
To forget
x2
(spoken by Mos Def)
She blew my whole habit, that girl
I was like â'what'
I played it low though, I was like â'yeah, aiight, c'mon then, let's go'
Its mad, it was so sick, I tell ya
Yo, honey was so blazin, she was just
Yo, she was like J. Kennedy
Word bond, to my mother man
She was that ill man, she take me to the dance floor
And she start whispering to me
[Mos Def]
Yo, let me apologize for the other night
I know it wasn't right
But baby you know what its like
Some brothers don't be coming right
I understand, I'm feeling you
Beside, â'can I have a dance?' ain't really that original
We laughed about it, traced her arms across my shoulder blades
They playing lovers' rock, I got the folded fingers on her waist
He end my butt up like the Arizona summer song
Finished then she whisper â'honey, let's exchange numbers'
Scene three: weeks of datin late night conversation
In the crib heart racin, tryin to be cool and patient
She touched on my eyelids, the room fell silent
She walked away smilin singing Gregory Issac
Like â'if I don't, if I don't, if I don't'
Showin me that tan line and that tatoo
Playin Sade, "Sweetest Taboo"
Burnin candles, all my other plans got canceled
Man I smashed it like an Idaho potato
She call my at my J.O., â'come now', I can't say no
Ginseng tree trunks, rockin the p-funk
Cocking her knees up, champion lover not ease up
Three months, she call â'I feel I'm runnin a fever'
Six months, I'm tellin her I desperately need her
Nine months, flu-like symptoms when shorty not around
I need more than to knock it down I'm really tryin to lock it down
Midnight we hook up and go at it
Burn is over, let her know, sweetheart I got to have it
She tellin me commitment is somethin she can't manage
Wake up the next morning, she gone like it was magic
Ahh damnit! This all Harrison Ford frantic
My 911 wasn't answered by my fly Taurus enchantress
Next week, who hit me up, I saw Sharice at the kiddie club
With some banging ass Asian playin lay it down and lick me up
What!?

Comments/Interpretations
This song is banging
Illest track..its reminds me of my good ol' days. Steamboat, Colorado. Hard to find albums in Africa. So damn expensive to order from the US. I give it 5 bars.
Kabelo, New Stands, Gaborone, Botswana
This song will always be bangin!

the lyrics,the beat,the concept,...this song is all that
mos def one of the illest that you ever known

"The opening lines-the ones that are sung-can anyone tell me where that sample is from?"
One Step Ahead by Aretha Franklin
es terrible mente del corte el tema lo mejor de mos def
yo word to big bird this shit be so cash
this song is so effin hot!
ye what's tha sharice thing about? kinda lost me at the end
some of these lyrics are wrong
maybe..but whoever did it got it the most accurate I've ever seen..sometimes ppl be messing the whole thing up
the sharice thing at the end to clear it up is that she is a stripper. thats why she couldn't handle commitment - thats the kitty club remark.
the singing in the beginning is an aretha franklin song. cant remember the name though!
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THE ENTIRE SONG TO ME..... I LOVED IT FROM WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT BUT CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT???
Mos meets a hot chick, she blows him off,
they get introduced later by another friend!
They start hanging, Completely falls in love
with her. Wants to commit to her, she says shhe
can't, she dissappears! And then finds out she's a
Stripper.
thoughtfultee you're just gonna have to listen to and read the lyrics anothe 8-10 times, not a really complicated song.
Anyway, topten song in my alltime list. A classic!
i love this song lol it reminds me of old times...the guy im with now..my fiancee he dedicated this to me ..bcuz when he first asked me out i wouldnt answer him he kept askin and askin and finally got my number and texted me and called me andwe had a one night thing...and then a week later were in a relationship and have been together for almost 9 months and im 7 months prego...lol this song is da shit!! for real!
this song is bomb
This song is illll!
At first I didn't understand what the end was about but that doesn't take away from the fact that the song is hot.
Yooo this song is classic. After 10 nyears its still sounding good... Show respect for the talent, "God bless it"
I was living in LA back then and this shiiiiiit was banging overthere....
Yeah same old story that goes round in every continent with those black chicks playing hard 2 get.. then u bangin them anyway and he forget 2 mention she disapeared when he was broke
"Ass so fat that you could see it fro the front" one of the best lines ever!
okay well it's "it was the same pretty BIRD that i had priorly observed tryin' to play me for the HERD" BIRD and HERD not "girl" and "herb"
Dude, this song just kills it. The rhymes over the beat flow so well and the lyrics and style are superb.
check out the album Mos Dub, track 3 - Ms. Vampire Booty...even fresher!
She's not a stripper. She was gay. Kitty club is for chicks. playing lay it down and lick me up with a banging Asian. That points to her getting down with another chick.
At the end, Sharice is gay. Not a stripper.
JAYNE KENNEDY~ first Black woman to be featured on the cover of Playboy
Thanks guys for all the explainations !!! Even though my english is not so bad, I got lost with all the slang and the cultural references !!! (wtf is his "J.O."?)
His "j.o." is his job mate.

Sharice can do men and women she's besexual!!
Anyway this shit kills!!
