Lyrics

Hey, I got something to tell you
Here he go again
This time it's good news
What happened, you finally get laid?
The hell you did
You actually— (You lie)
I did!
Some girl actually gave you some?
A real girl, not one in the magazines
A beautiful girl, like a vision from God
But she wasn't a vision, she's flesh and blood
Her name's Evelyn
Evelyn, whose boyfriend killed a man with a knife?
Evelyn, whose boyfriend's serving twenty-five to life
Well, all right (We always thought)
But we weren't sure
I should have known (I always knew)
That what we hoped was true
The boy just needed to get laid
The boy just needed to get laid
And did you like it? (How did it feel?)
Unbearably sweet
Like bathing in honey, warm and sweet
Don't get me wrong, scripture has its place
But sex saves
I'll say, no problem is too big
For wide hips and thick legs
A little honey makes your problems go away
Charles Baby, youngest of five finally got saved
He can hold his head high
Neighborhood baby, our baby, too
We can stop wondering what's wrong with you
We can stop wondering what's wrong with you
Rite of passage, you'll never be the same
Once you've tasted honey, you're forever changed
Rite of passage, you'll never be the same
Once you've tasted honey, you're forever changed
You'll never look at a girl the same way
You'll have one thing on your mind, night and day
Honey, honey, sweet, warm honey
Rite of passage, you'll never be the same
Honey, honey, sweet, warm honey
Once you've tasted honey, you'll have honey on the brain
The space between a woman's thighs
Will have a hold on you
For the rest of your life
You may choose to think you're free
But you'll be a slave to sweet honey
You may choose to think you're free
But you'll be a slave to sweet honey
Hahaha
Gimme that beer, boy, you don't drink
I'll drink both of these for you
And I know you're lyin', you're lyin' (Hahaha)
