So - you wanna play it slow
You're screwin' up my flow
And everyday you bring me down
So - you think that I don't know
You plan to change the show
Push that button and you're out of bounds

I am always ready
If you want a fight
I can play the heavy
'Til you see the light
I've been watchin' you since
You showed up last night
Now I got your number
If you wanna try

You don't wanna mess with me
Don't wanna take you down
No 'to be or not to be'
I'll just run you out of town
No showdown on the street
You best retreat

So - you know you need to go
I'm showin' you the doh
And I don't wanna hear a sound

There's no need to make up
Somethin' nice to say
Point of view don't matter
Don't do things that way
Smilin' in my face and
Then you try to lie
You're lucky all you get is
A handshake and goodbye

You don't wanna mess with me
Don't wanna take you down
No 'to be or not to be'
Just run you out of town
You better beat your feet
You better retreat
Don't make me show my teeth
Or you'll feel the heat

Same 'ole song and dance
Someone take a chance
Have to make a stand
Take them by the hand
( When - will - people - learn - to
Be - cool )

You don't wanna mess with me
Don't wanna take you down
No 'to be or not to be'
Just run you out of town
You don't wanna go round and round
('Cause) you'll be nothin' when I'm done
I could take you in my sleep
I do this just for fun
