Wyclef Jean: Perfect Gentleman

(This one's goin' out to the strip joints

Yo, meet me at Suzy's Rendez-vous

For every Go-Go Bar

I'm gonna send this one out to the gentlemen's clubs

Magic City, New York dogs, Rolex

I be seeing you all up in there late at night

I understand when your girl is stressing you out

(Crazy girls) Know what I'm saying?

Don't let the ladies fool you all now, fellows

They be doin' the same thing you all be doin'

Turn up my symphony, man.

Turn up my symphony!

Drop a BEAT!)


[Chorus:]

Just 'cause she dances go-go

It don't make her a ho, no

Maxine, put your red shoes on

We going to the disco

We gonna elope to Mexico

Called up my mama, said I'm in love with a stripper, yo


[Verse 1]

Ten grand, let me see you shake it like you got no bones in your body and you was made to be a celebrity

Twenty grand, know it's a sin, but before me you show me a little more skin it would fulfill my fantasy

Thirty grand, to the highest bidder but Chris Rock said, 'There's no sex in the champagne room'

Forty grand, looked into her eyes, I saw tears falling down, type of tears that money couldn't buy


[Chorus 2X]


[Verse 2]

[Wyclef]

Excuse me, what is your name?

[Hope]

Uh, my name is Hope, yo

I was blessed with the body of the Goddesses

Have you any idea how hard this is?

I could flex in 25 positions

But I only work here to pay my tuition

Yo, tantalizing teaser

Table-top pleaser

Give me what I need a Mastercard a Visa

Lap dance fantasy

Picture us on an all white canopy

Wyclef extended his hand to me

Like Billy D. said he's feeling me

Take me away from here, so far

Where they ride horses, no cars

No more stripping in bars

Me and you 'Clef, against the odds


[Chorus 2X]


(Yo a lot of you all sitting with you all girls

fronting like the Budweiser commercial

Talking about, 'I, I don't be going to the strip joints'

You're lying man! You'd be surprised who you see up in there man.

I got one question for you liars, man)


Shot callers, what are you, a preacher?

You're calling her a hooker? He without sin cast the first stone.

I met her on the subway, she gave me that VIP card

And told me if I ever have problems,

Don't hesitate to come by, yeah, yeah, yeah


[Chorus 2X]


Call up my mama said I'm in love with a stripper yo!


(Yo baby, can I get another lap dance?

I tell you I got nothing but funny money, man.

New York Dogs.)
