C-I-A-R-A (come on) Pull up your pants (just like 'em) Take out the trash (just like 'em) Gettin' ya cash (like 'em), fast (like 'em) Girl, you oughta act like ya dig (I'm talking 'bout) security codes on everything On vibrate so your phone don't ever ring (Have a joint account) And another one he don't know about Wish we could switch up the roles And I could be that Tell you I love you But when you call, I never get back Would you ask them questions like me? Like, where you be at? 'Cause I'm out four in the morning On the corner rolling, doing my own thing What if I had a thing on the side? Made you cry? Would the rules change up or would they still apply? If I played you like a toy? Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy Can't be gettin' mad What you mad? Can't handle that? Can't be gettin' mad What you mad? Can't handle that? Girl, go ahead and be (just like 'em) Go run the streets (just like 'em) Come home just to sleep like 'em, creep like 'em Front with your friends Act hard when you're with 'em like 'em (like 'em) Keep a straight face when you tell a lie Always keep an airtight alibi (Keep him in the dark) What he don't know won't break his heart Wish we could switch up the roles And I could be that Tell you I love you But when you call, I never get back Would you ask them questions like me? Like, where you be at? 'Cause I'm out four in the morning On the corner rolling, doing my own thing What if I had a thing on the side? (What if I-I) Made you cry? (Made you cry?)
