who gave u permission to
rearrange me
certainly not me
who told you that it was alright to
love me
certainly not me

i was not looking for no love affair
and now you wanna fix me
i was not looking for no love affair
and now you want to mild me
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

you're really trying to 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

the world is mine
when i wake up
i don't need nobody telling me the time
certainly, certainly, certainly not me

who gave u permission to
rearrange me
certainly not me
who told you that it was alright to
love me
certainly not me
i was not looking for no love affair
someone's girl

i guess i'll see you next lifetime
now it ain't nothin' wrong dreamin'
boy don't get me wrong
cause everytime i see you
it let's me know just how strong

that my love is for my baby
emotions just don't lie
i know i'm a lot a woman
but not enough to divide the pie
