"Certainly (Flipped It)" lyrics - ERYKAH BADU

[Intro:]
Uh, Flipped It Mix
Might be cool
One, two, three, four

Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly, certainly not me

[Pre-Chorus:]
I was not looking for no love affair, baby
And now you wanna fix me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you want to mold me
Was not looking for no love affair, baby
Now you wanna kiss me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna control me
Hold me
I know you're trying to get creative with my love
And that's alright, but
You tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back
And then you slipped me a mickey

[Chorus:]
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (I wasn't ready)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Goodbye, but now it goes, (when I wake up)
I don't need nobody tellin' me the time, oooh uh uh oh

Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me
No way, no
Who told you that it was alright to love me
Certainly, certainly not me

[Pre-Chorus:]
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna fix me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you want to mold me
Was not looking for no love affair
Now you wanna kiss me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna control me
Hold me
I know you're trying to get creative with my love
And that's real cute, boy
You tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back
And then you slipped me a mickey

[Chorus:]
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (Ooh)

[Outro:]
The world is mine
When I wake up (When I wake up)
I don't need nobody tellin' me the time, no
The world is mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, uh, (When I wake up)
I don't need no nigga rollin' over lookin' after me

No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no
No no no no no no no no no
Oh no, oh no, oh
I don't need, I don't need, no
No no no no
No no no no no no no no no, oh oh
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Oh
(And then you slipped me a mickey) You know I wasn't ready
(And then you slipped me a mickey) 'Cause I admit, baby
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Baby
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Oh
(And then you slipped me a mickey) No no no
(And then you slipped me a mickey) Yeah
(And then you slipped me a mickey)
Oh, oh no, no no no no no no no no oh
Oh oh no oh, hey
Love affair, love affair, was not looking for no love affair, no, no oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Ow
