Lyrics Erykah Badu – Certainly
Text:
Who gave you permission to rearrange me?
Certainly not me
Who told you that it was alright to love me?
Certainly, certainly not me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna fix me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you want to mold me
I 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 really tryna get creative with me love
And that’s alright,
But you tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back
And then you slipped me a mickey.
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
The world is mine
When I wake up (when I wake up)
I don’t need nobody telling me the time
Who told you that it was alright to love me?
Certainly not me
No, way, no
Who gave you permission to rearrange me?
Certainly, certainly not me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna fix me
Was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna mold me
I was not looking for no love affair
No, no, no
And now you wanna kiss me
I was not looking for no love affair, no,
And now you wanna control me
Hold me
You’re really tryna get creative with me love
And that’s really cute,
But you tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back
And then you slipped me a mickey.
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me
The world is mine
When I wake up (when I wake up)
I don’t need nobody telling me the time
Certainly
Certainly not me
Certainly
I was not looking, was not looking for no love affair
Certainly
Certainly not me
Oh, no, no way
Certainly
