[Run] I seen you jockin J.C. cause he got a Mercedes And you know about his ladies, and all his babies You just wanna ride, and get inside And run around town, like Bonnie'n'Clyde But see the moves you're makin, the route you're takin Will lead to heartbreakin and I'm not mistaken You like his money, you'll be his honey Get the truth - no excuse - you're a great big dummy! DUMB GIRL. DUMB GIRL!
