What have I done for you, baby?
Well, what have you done for me lately?
What have I done for you lately?
Well, what have you done for me, baby?
What have I done for you lately?
Well, what have you done for me, baby?
Now while I'm in the mood for expressing myself
Last night I had the time and told you how I felt
But now that we're here, we're face to face
I think it's time for me to get on your case
You bought me shoes that were too big
You bought me a hat that fitted like a wig
You gave me chain that got way in turn
I hate to say it, baby, but you got burned
You bought me a beeper that wouldn't beep
You made me think bad luck from livin' on my street
Yet you got the nerve to be uptight
And say I'm not the one who's treating you right
What have I done for you, girl, don't ask
To add it up would be a very hard task
Listen, baby doll, I'm not here to fight
But if you wanna keep me your best to get right
What have I done for you lately?
Well, what have you done for me, baby?
What have I done for you, baby?
Well, what have you done for me lately?
Now my so and so light, with love and joy
Treated you like a woman, not like a toy
No other guy could ever do as much
Because I'm the only one with the magical touch
I'm talkin' fifty-fifty, not sixty-forty
'Cause anywhere I look it makes me a shorty
To see what I'm sayin' you don't need a clue
So don't ask me what have I done for you
(I thought you were my man, my pride and joy
But many people say that you're every girl's toy
You walk around with your nose in the air
Doin' me wrong but you say you care)
(You feel no shame in the game but you front to me
You say I'm to blame but we shall see
'Cause this girl is mad, fed up and tired
Sweetheart, my dear, you are fired)
(The memories in my mind are already erased
I've given two weeks notice, you're bein' replaced
But don't catch an attitude, be a good boy scout
Just pack your bag, leave the keys and oh yeah: get out!)
(And if you don't have a place to go
'Cause you are poor and I've got all the dough
I might take your nod, you irritate me
And besides: what have you done for me lately?)
Remember the night when I got on my knees
Talkin' of marriage and you said: "Please"
You asked if I loved you, would I buy you the world
After that sick question I just called Earl
You wanted a house with a pool and a yard
A brand new pair of credit cards
Two Benzo's, one his and hers
Five bodyguards, two chauffeurs
Just be her man, don't be her slave
Even though rich things is what she craves
Don't be fooled by the sparkling eyes
'Cause behind those eyes there's a big surprise
I'm not sayin' all the ladies are the same
I'm just talkin' 'bout the ones that like to play games
If she's a user, try to confuse her
You better set her straight or, man, you'll lose her
What I've done, don't make me laugh
To dry off with first when you finish your bath
Kept warm by me when you're goin' to sleep
Even gave you a car, for you to keep
But now I see why you don't wanna make up
One million and one reasons to break up
I treated you like no other's been treated
So now I'm telling you to beat it
Yo, you better drop that TV-diner and get with a winner
(When I see one I will)
Yo, you better drop that s** and get with it
(You come right out of a comic book)
What have I done for you lately?
Well, what have you done for me, baby?
What have I done for you, baby?
Well, what have you done for me lately?
Girl you better stop cuttin' your face
And get with the real chocolate cake (What? Hahahaha)
What have I done for you lately?
Well, what have you done for me, baby?
What have I done for you, baby?
Well, what have you done for me lately?
(I got plenty men
And a lot of them treat me better than you ever will)
