The Roots, Patrick Stump - Birthday Girl lyrics

What is it we wanna doooo
Now that I'm allowed to be in love with you?
Bir-thday girl, it's your birthday
Wherever you wanna go
Now you're old enough to go and
See the "R" rated show, now
"R" rated show

Yo, she said she was a magazine editor named
Janine
Backstage in high heels and painted-on, jeans
Probably had the most
Devious eyes I'd ever seen
Told me she was twenty-two
She was only seventeen
She had sum'hin to hide she
Snuck in from out-side
And got, everybody gassed like the car I
Drive
With all that grown lady ass and my far-out
Vibe she said she came to see
Them Roots boys +Fall-Out+ live, but listen

What is it we wanna doooo
Now that I'm allowed to be in love with you?
Bir-thday girl, it's your birthday
Wherever you wanna go
Now you're old enough to go and
See the "R" rated show, now
"R" rated show

You see the girls look good
But they brains not ready
I talk to a woman, her mind is mo', steady
Probably sum'hin in the way they designed
That's mo' steady
I just let you inside cause the line so
Heavy but, I shoulda know
Better cause now I feel like America's
Underbelly R kelly gutter smut peddlers
Internet predators, chat-room irregulars
This not my twist, you tryna
Send me to the therapist, miss

What is it we wanna doooo
Now that I'm allowed to be in love with you?
Bir-thday girl, it's your birthday
Wherever you wanna go
Now you're old enough to go and
See the "R" rated show, now

Now, she told me cheddar cheese grit's
Two tomato fried fish
Cause she heard it's my dish
Tryna be my sidekick
All the people all around thinkin
She was my chick
Sayin, "Damn, the girl thick
But she ain't no twenty-six"
Lookin at me like I'm up to
Sum'him on the funny tip
Like I ever really been the one
To try the honey drip
It's your birthday so let me know
The gift you wanna get in fact
Blow out the candles on the cake
And make a wish for me

They can't really seem to look away
So they try, asking her to stay
Fake ID, you won't get turned away!
You look, lovely toniiiight
Now you're old enough to buy a gun
So many better ways of having fun
Right now I can only think of one
You look lovely toniiiight

What is it we wanna doooo
Now that I'm allowed to be in love with you?
Bir-thday girl, it's your birthday
Wherever you wanna go
Now you're old enough to go and
