No, that's not a sexy accent Oh, don't you like it? Why you try to diss me now? Oh please Oh please what? Love mean French, French mean love Everybody love my accent Why nobody like it? Q-Tip write a story about me What is that? Oh, I'm sexy and I'm French Everybody love my accent I'm the best, yes Yeah, je t'aime mean I love you I love you means je t'aime I teach you French, I make you French good Voulez-vous Rendez-vous Coucou Les pou-pous Voulez-vous Rendez-vous Coucou Les pou-pous Brother, brother, brother Lucien, you're like no other Listen very close cause I don't like to boast Instead I'll tell the tale of the French who prevail Through the Mr. Crazy Rabbits who are always on his tail Rent ain't on sale, your roommate starts to wail Get caught with stolen goods and you will go to jail If you go to jail then who will pay the bail? Deport you back to France on a ship with a sail Escargot, Lucien, you eat snails? From the Zulu Nation from a town called Paris Came to America to find liberty Instead of finding pleasure all you found was misery But listen Lucien, you have a friend in me Oh, luck, luck'll drive your butt daddy Next time you fix some wheels, make it a Caddy In terms of doin' good I know you wish you really could But listen brother man, I really think you can Succeed with the breed of the brothers who you bat It's the crème de la crème And you can vouch for that, it'll take a minute rice So take my advice Trust in us, unless you trust in your life Lucien, Lucien, Lucien, Lucien You should know Voulez-vous Rendez-vous Coucou Les pou-pous Voulez-vous Rendez-vous Coucou Les pou-pous Are you ready, Lou? This one is for you Comin' from a true blue Fits like a shoe Como esta usted, o como t'allez-vous? Lucien, I'll leave it up to you Watch that lass gonna backflash fast Can you get a grip on the crackhead dip? Sold you a paper bag, guess he saw you comin' VCR from a neckbone bummin' Ten dollars brother, he was hummin' and strummin' Only had twenty, he was livin' like he's slummin' Gave him the money, well I thought that was somethin' Lookin' like a kid who was lost and crummin' Don't worry 'bout a thing, I won't get specific This is a song that is long and prolific Think of the stuff that I said if you can Figure it out, compute, understand No problemo, I'll help you with your demo If you go to the store for me Lucien, I'm just kiddin', you should know Oh Tip man, why you do that to me, man? I thought you was a friend, word Oh man, I can't believe that Oh, why you do that to me? I wasn't really like this I can do it by myself Yo Tip, you're the one who's a fool Voulez-vous Rendez-vous Coucou Les pou-pous You gotta get a grip on the missions you be takin' Not so much the mission but you got crazy ignition Sure the sugar babies wanna give you a chance With the French savoir faire and the sexy glance But is she really fly or is she a guy? I won't ask why cause I know that you try You try too hard, is that the answer to the riddle? Instead of doin' so much why don't you do just a little? Boy what a cad, I guess we shouldn't treat him bad In fact it would be nice if we understood him right A case of position and the feet in the shoes Sympathetic reason in the case of the blues Lucien is blue even though he's really brown I had to make the sound, his life is too profound On the up and up he's somethin' like a little pup Young and naive, it's hard to believe As long as you're strong you can quest with the Questers Jolly like a jumping bean or a jester Lucien, Lucien, Lucien, Lucien You should know Oh Tip, everything's gonna be alright now, I think so I should've listened to you, man I think I'm going home, man Alright, I think I'm outta here now Oh peace, just peace, I'm outta here Voulez-vous Coucou Voulez-vous Coucou Voulez-vous Coucou Voulez-vous Coucou You don't stop, you don't stop You don't stop, you don't stop You don't stop, you don't stop You don't stop, you don't stop You don't stop No, that's not a sexy accent
