Song Lyrics

Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to come through with seven coats of the gloss
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man
Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to buy the car, how to buy the house
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man

Uh back in eight grade, banana berry wrist
Teacher wanna tell me be realistic
That bitch tryna tell me be realistic?
I pull up 5 years later in a drop top six
Butterscotch twist, cheek-checklin' lipstick
Might be in a movie, with Barry Sanders
Might be Adam Sandler, and my cup is pink panther
High School, I-I-I was on the news
Fist full of jewels looks like a swimming pool
Aqua-shock start, glow in the dark shark
Mark my words, I don't need acceptance
I'm catching interceptions on you innocent pedestrians, (touchdown)
Suckers keep on flexin', I'm bringing out the rice
Jody shaking dice watching Miami Vice, syrup in my slice
That's a given, now I'm the man but I'm crawling like a kitten
Teach him

Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to come through with seven coats of the gloss
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man
Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to buy the car, how to buy the house
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man

Packin' my luggage, push get to shoving
Show Jody loving when I'm flipping candy pumpkin
Might hit the club and it's the white Danny Glover
Rap game Uncle Ben pulling rice out the oven
Now I'm Julius Caesar in Versace wife beater
Would go on vacation but my whole life's a weekend
Whole a lotta money, all bills paid
Next pay day I'm buying 3 or 4 chains
Now I'm picture perfect, shoulda been a surfer
Aww shit look who it is, it's the white Eddie Murphy
Big balling, no stopping
Trunk steady knockin', floatin' through the sky
M-M-Mary Poppins

Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to come through with seven coats of the gloss
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man
Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to buy the car, how to buy the house
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man

Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to come through with seven coats of the gloss
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man
Show you how to be the man, how to be the boss
How to buy the car, how to buy the house
Show you how to be the man, show you how to be the man
