《Passin’ Me By》歌词

[00:00:00] Passin' Me By - The Pharcyde

[00:00:25] Now in my younger days I used to sport a shag

[00:00:28] When I went to school I carried lunch in a bag

[00:00:30] With an apple for my teacher 'cause I knew I'd get a kiss

[00:00:33] Always got mad when the class was dismissed

[00:00:36] But when it was in session I always had a question

[00:00:39] I would raise my hand to make her stagger to my desk and

[00:00:42] Help me with my problem it was never much

[00:00:44] Just a trick to smell her scent and try to sneak a touch

[00:00:47] Oh how I wish I could hold her hand and give her a hug

[00:00:51] She was married to the man he was a thug

[00:00:53] His name was Lee he drove a Z

[00:00:55] He'd pick her up from school promptly at three o'clock

[00:00:57] I was on her jock yes indeedy I wrote graffiti on the bus

[00:01:02] First I'd write her name then carve a plus

[00:01:04] With my name last on the looking glass

[00:01:06] I seen her yesterday but still I had to let her pass

[00:01:12] She keeps on passin me by

[00:01:32] When I dream of fairytales I think of me and Shelly

[00:01:33] See she's my type of hype and I can't stand when brothers tell me

[00:01:37] That I should quit chasin' and look for something better

[00:01:39] But the smile that she shows makes me a go-getter

[00:01:42] I haven't gone as far as asking if I could get with her

[00:01:44] I just play it by ear and hope she gets the picture

[00:01:47] I'm shootin for her heart got my finger on the trigger

[00:01:50] She could be my broad and I could be her (ni**a)

[00:01:53] But all I can do is stare

[00:01:56] Back as kids we used to kiss when we played truth or dare

[00:01:59] Now she's more sophisticated highly edu-ma-cated

[00:02:01] Not at all over-rated I think I need a prayer

[00:02:04] To get in her boots and it looks rather dry

[00:02:06] I guess a twinkle in her eye is just a twinkle in her eye

[00:02:09] Although she's crazy steppin I'll try to stop her stride

[00:02:12] Cause I won't have no more of this passin me by

[00:02:15] Time for me to voice my opinion of not even pretendin she didn't have me

[00:02:18] Strung like a chicken chase my tail like a doggie

[00:02:20] She was kind of like a star thinking I was like a fan

[00:02:23] Dude she looked good down side: she had a man

[00:02:26] He was a rooty-toot a nincompoop

[00:02:29] She told me soon your little birdie's gonna fly the coop

[00:02:31] She was a flake like corn and I was born not to understand

[00:02:35] By lettin her pass I had proved to be a better man

[00:02:40] She keeps on passin me by

[00:03:10] Now there she goes again the dopest Ethiopian

[00:03:12] And now the world around me be gets movin in slow motion

[00:03:15] When-ever she happens to walk by - why does the apple of my eye

[00:03:19] Overlook and disregard my feelings no matter how much I try

[00:03:21] Wait no i did not really pursue my little princess with persistance;

[00:03:24] And I was so low-key that she was unaware of my existance

[00:03:27] From a distance I desired secretly admired her;

[00:03:31] Wired her a letter to get her and it went:

[00:03:32] My dear my dear my dear you do not know me but I know you very well

[00:03:35] Now let me tell you about the feelings I have for you

[00:03:38] When I try or make some sort of attempt I symp

[00:03:40] Damn I wish I wasn't such a wimp

[00:03:43] 'Cause then I would let you know that I love you so

[00:03:45] And if I was your man then I would be true

[00:03:47] The only lying I would do is in the bed with you

[00:03:49] Then I signed sincerely the one who loves you dearly PS love me tender

[00:03:51] The letter came back three days later: Return to Sender

[00:03:55] Damn

[00:03:57] She keeps on passin me by
