I Will Make U Cry
album: Whoa, Nelly! (2000)
Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem, vem cá, rapaz!
Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem cá, rapaz!
This is not political it's just that I demand attention when I walk into a room
And it's not that I can't play ball hard it's just that I don't want to
And the more I think about this pressure love I don't want you
And I can't have you and that's what hurts the most
I cannot show you these things I boast
I'll throw my heart out, keep my head up, I cannot fuck up cuz
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
So I'll prefer to run this road rough around the edges
Good for something but too good to give it to you
You run your own course at your own pace but I just got impatient
See, I wanted to explore
Forsake you, forsook you, abate you, dissipate you
So turn fate around, I believed that I was free of you (not)
I still believe in those days on benches at sunset or the waves in July or was it March
We weathered weathers and storms real and imagined, such fragile tenderness
You are truly blessed
I stress this as I blow you this kiss as I blow it in the wind, mmwa
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
Chuva! Chuvinha! Vem, vem cá, rapaz!
Gonna make u cry so damn hard you're gonna curse your drawers and wish you weren't a boy
Gonna make u cry so damn hard you'll curse your drawers and wish you weren't a boy, yeah
I will make u cry
I will make u cry
(Boohoo)
They say time is made of memories
Well I remembered and I'm tired
This is not political
It's just that I remember the fire
Babe you left me with my head held high and I feigned to be more than I was, didn't I
I thought I could do without sugar love but this chocolate has turned into sweet bubble gum
Candy is sweet but honey is sweeter
It tastes like the real thing but candy is much much cheaper (Cheaper)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that)
I got what you need boy (baby I do) but I will only bring on the rain
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
...time crying...you'll be crying... I'm sorry I made you cry...
I didn't mean to, let me wipe those tears away...wipe those tears away
...don't cry
baby...it's only rain

[I am no longer accepting anymore corrections for this song because so
many people have different ideas about one word, and as soon as I change
it someone asks to correct it again]
[Timbaland:]
Take it back, take it back...
[verse 1]
Everybody look at me, me
I walk in the door you start screaming
C'mon everybody what you're here for
Move your body around like a nympho
Everybody get your neck to crack around
All you crazy people c'mon jump around
I wanna see you all on your knees, knees
You either wanna be with me or be me
[chorus]
Maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you rob cars, make you cut cards
Make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you rob cars, make you cut cards
Wish you never ever met her at all.
[verse 2]
And when she walks she walks with passion
When she talks, she talks like she can handle it
When she asks for something boy, she means it
Even if you never, ever see it
Everybody get your neck to crack around
All you crazy people c'mon jump around
You doing anything to keep her by your side
Because she says she love you, love you long long time
[c'mon, man!]
[chorus]
Maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you rob cars, make you cut cards
Make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you rob cars, make you cut cards
Wish you never ever met her at all.
[chants x 8]
[chorus]
Maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you buy cars, make you cut cards
Make you fall real hard in love
She's a maneater
Make you work hard, make you spend all
make you want all of her love
She's a maneater
Make you buy cars, make you cut cards
Wish you never ever met her at all
[ending]
Never ever met her at all
You wish you never ever met her at all
[x 7]
Been around the world I ain't ever seen a girl like
this. [She's a maneater, maneater]
