Roses Lyrics

[00:17.08] Caroline (Caroline), see, Caroline
[00:20.50] All the guys would say she's mighty fine (mighty fine)
[00:23.84] But mighty fine only got you somewhere half the time
[00:28.11] And the other half either got you
[00:30.77] Cussed out or coming up short
[00:33.67] Yeah, now dig this, now even though (even though)
[00:37.17] You'd need a golden calculator to divide (to divide)
[00:41.48] The time it took to look inside and realize
[00:45.53] That real guys go for real down-to-Mars girls, haha, yeah
[00:52.11] I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank, but
[00:57.03] Lean a little bit closer, see
[00:59.20] Roses really smell like poo-poo-ooh
[01:02.73] Yeah, roses really smell like poo-poo-ooh
[01:09.53] I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank, but
[01:14.75] Lean a little bit closer, see
[01:16.85] Roses really smell like poo-poo-ooh
[01:20.51] Yeah, roses really smell like poo-poo-ooh
[01:27.87] Caroline (Caroline)
[01:30.09] See she's the reason for the word "Bitch" (bitch)
[01:34.16] I hope she's speedin' on the way to the club
[01:36.49] Tryna hurry up to get to a baller or singer or somebody like that
[01:38.97] And try to put on her makeup in the mirror and crash, crash
[01:43.06] Crash into a ditch (just playin')
[01:47.38] She needs a golden calculator to divide (to divide)
[01:52.04] The time it takes to look inside and realize
[01:56.33] That real guys go for real down-to-Mars girls, yeah
[02:02.12] I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank, but

[02:30.80] Yeah, roses really smell like poo-poo-ooh
[02:37.76] Well, she's got a hottie's body but her attitude is potty
[02:40.51] When I met her at a party, she was hardly acting naughty
[02:42.78] I said, "Shawty, would you call me?"
[02:43.73] She said, "Pardon me, are you balling?"
[02:44.89] I said, "Darling, you sound like a prostitute pausing"
[02:47.71] Oh, so you're one them freaks
[02:49.34] Get geeked at the sight of an ATM receipt
[02:51.43] But game been peeped, droppin' names, she's weak
[02:53.52] Trickin' off this bitch is lost, must take me for a geek
[02:55.77] A quick way to eat, a neat place to sleep
[02:58.17] A rent-a-car for a week, a trick for a treat
[03:00.15] No go on the raw sex, my AIDS test is flawless
[03:02.42] Regardless, we don't want to get involved with all them lawyers
[03:04.77] And judges just to hold grudges in a courtroom
[03:07.03] I wanna see your support bra, not support you
[03:09.20] (Not support you, not support you)
[03:12.54] I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank, but
