OutKast - The Rooster lyrics

Hold up oooh, oooh, ooh
Somebody done told you wrong
Thought it wasn't gone end off like that huh?
Hot, Too Hot too motherfucking hot

OK, I started out all alone
'Cause my baby mama left me
Now there's nobody at home
Beginning to feel like Ms
Jackson done got cloned
Well it's some real shit and I'm
Living it through this song
A moving vehicle took my family
As I slept out on the sofa
In the Boom Boom Room i woke up very upset
I throw the covers back and
Peek out of the draperies
My daughter, my baby
My baby mama all escaping me
Like a candle in the wind, she was my friend
Like Princess Di before she died
Therefore we tried and tried again
But in the end
You pay attention to the pluses
But the minuses behind make it
Seem like you can't win

Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out

Round two, a single parent
What is Big to do?
Throw a party? Not hardly I'm trying
To stay up outta that womb
Or that p-u-s-s puss, I said puss
Luther Vandross couldn't make a home out
Of this house that we smooshed
Smashed, pushed to the limit
Smash and turned it timid
Hell everyone was suffering
The house was feeling wicked
The cat got sold, the dog got old
The food got cold
Both of our tempers were on swole
For the most, most part, you fuss, fight
Fart you build it up to break it down
And now take it from the start
Repeatedly leading a path that only
Ends in a clash of two stubborn minds
Grown folks blind to the signs

Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out

K-O, knocked out by technicality
The love has kissed the canvas
Now the whole family is mad at me
My daughter don't want me at her PTA meetings
And then my son, he can't talk
When I change him he's peeing
I think he's pissed
I can't dismiss the matter of the fact
Because he saw you and me argue
Now the energy is coming back
Set an example, a positive pattern
Keep life on track
But I'm married to the music
And committed to the wax

Tapes, CDs, Baby please
You make me want to scream
You're on my team starting first string
So why are we arguing? (Wax)
Tapes, CDs, Baby please
You make me want to scream
You're on my team starting first string
So why are we arguing? Throw your fuckin

Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out

Tapes, CDs, Baby please
You make me want to scream
You're on my team starting first string
So why are we arguing?
Wax, tapes, CDs, Baby please
You make me want to scream
You're on my team starting first string
So why are we arguing? Throw your fuckin

Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
Throw your neck out throw your back out
