Shorty Was Da Bomb - DMX

«I just called you and you said Domino’s Pizza, but… and you said you were on

your way, but there’s just one problem

I’m all the way to fucking Rochester, New York.

Wrong ho!»

Uhh, yo yo… yo, not this shit again

Dog gon' be a dog, y’knahmean?

Motherfucking dog!

Don’t get a dog if you can’t take care of a dog

Gotta take care of the dog, y’know?

Y’know?

Take it easy lady, y’know?

Uh-huh

Give me a motherfucking break, will ya?

Shorty was the bomb, brownskin honey with a little dough

Come to find out she was a lil hoe, but still, yo

I pushed up, shorty had that ass like blaow

Had me scheming on how I could get that now

Was like girlfriend, let me drop a bug in yo' ear

She was mine cause I told her what she wanted to hear

Was like yeah, she knew how it was going down

She said page me, code zero, cause I know you get around

Didn’t have a man, but even if she did dead

Cause my game is tight like a stocking cap on a nigga’s head

I said, we’ll get up like nine or somethin'

Don’t act like when I say that ass is mine I’m frontin'

That night was right, she let me get that, hit that

Rip that, bounce it off the walls, flip that

But only, one thing went wrong, the rubber bust

But I didn’t fuss cause, dog, shorty was the bomb

Shorty, UH!

We only did it for that night

But man, the pussy was good

But shorty’s fucking up my life, fucking up my life

Shorty, UH!

We only did it for that night

But man, the pussy was good

But shorty’s fucking up my life

C’mon, ma, give me a break!

A few days later, I hit her up just to keep it real

Was like, «Whassup, boo?

How you been?

How you feel?»

She said, «Aight, but my friend’s kinda late

Today’s the 13th, and it should’ve been here on the 8th»

I’m like, «For real?!

Don’t stress it, it’ll come

It better cause I can’t afford another little one»

She said, «Neither can I», I said, «Cool

Cause I got mad shit to do and you still going to school»

So at least we had the same thing in mind

Not to have this kid and everything would be fine

But I was blind to the fact that she was setting me up

For the kill, damn, why wasn’t she on the pill?

And I still would check on her like once a week

Sometimes I hit it, sometimes I didn’t, but shorty was a freak

And whenever I would speak on the baby

Shorty would be like, «I ain’t having this kid, is you crazy?»

By now, wasn’t looking too good

Cause she wasn’t doing things that she told me she would

Like getting the price checked out for what we had to do

And it goes up another yard for every month after two

And a half, I had to laugh out of frustration

Now she’s four months, I’m ready to hit the bus station

If I was still on that shit it would’ve made me rob her

Told her friends, «DMX?

Yeah, that’s my baby’s father»

Her lil' stomach is shown, so now the heat is on

Maybe she’ll see the light if I start to treat her wrong

Like if she thought that if she kept the baby she would keep me,

so I played the game on her level, got sneaky

Let her have the kid, she said it was premature

Found out she was six months when she said she was four

So I left her with the pressure on the next man’s arm

But she’ll be aight, cause shorty was the bomb
