Lyrics Erykah Badu – Certainly (Flipped It)

Uh, flip it mix,
Might be cool.

Who gave you permission to rearrange me
Certainly not me

I was not looking for no love affair, baby
Now you wanna fix me
I was not looking for no love affair
Now you wanna 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 tryna 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.

Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (I wasn’t ready.)
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 tellin’ me the time, oh 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

I was not looking for no love affair, partner
Now you wanna fix me
I was not looking for no love affair
Now you wanna mold me
I was not looking for no love affair
Now you wanna kiss me
I was not looking for no love affair
And now you wanna control me
Hold me

I know you’re tryna 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.

Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (ooh)
Certainly, certainly, certainly not me (ooh)

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

And he slipped me a mickey
repeat ’til the end

Oh
You know I wasn’t ready
‘Cause I admit baby, baby
Oh, no, no, no
Yeah, you got again
You tried to get a little tricky
Turned my back
And then you slipped me a mickey.
No, no
