I seen her in the subway, on my way to Brooklyn
Hello, good looking, is this seat tooken
On the A-train, picking at her brain
I couldn`t get her number, I couldn`t get her name
I said I still like your style of fashion
But I hate your hostile, `itty attitude wit a passion
Is it because brothers like to hawk alot
Is it because your sign don`t talk alot
She turned away, no play, I said ok
You don`t really look good, I hope you have a bad day
Sat back, relaxed though the ride was tight
I was thinking of the rhymes I wrote last night
Next stop was mine, a familar scene
I was meeting my friend, killer Ben in Ft Green
Where the girls are real, they tell ya how they feel
If you`re soft, you`re soft, or if you`re hard like steel
See i don`t bend and I won`t rust
And I don`t break and I won`t bust
Stomped up the street and did I hear a treat?
Hard high heels tappin` on the concrete
I took a peek, it was the girl from the train behind me
Did she live in the area, was she trying to find me?
Hm, I didn`t wanna play myself out
I played it off, stopped and I bought a Guiness Stout
Now was she shy, she didn`t walk by
She came in the store then she even said hi
Curiosity- at a high velocity
Maybe possibly she had the hots for me
i said if we`re playing games then we`re gonna play mine
I`m a lay the rules `cause it ain`t much time
If you hide your feelings, and they hard to find,
I wanna know what`s on your mind
CHORUS
About a week went by and I called her, Hello
I said yo, can I speak to, um, she said no
Hey yo, I know I didn`t call, I didn`t wanna stress you
Go out my way to impress you, press to undress you
See I wanna get to know you so I can show you
What a strong relationship can grow to
But you gotta trust me and you`re gonna love me
Squeeze the phone and hug me, use your mind to rub me
Now how does it feel when my mental, massage ya temple
Telephone`s hot from the vibes that I sent you
Now tell me your inner thoughts and deepest emotions
Next you see ectacy`s explosions
Now I`m coming to see you to spend some time
I`m a romantic warrior but is it a crime
And if you hide your feelings and they hard to find...
I wanna know what`s on your mind
I wanna know what`s on your mind
Now it`s been months and it`s smooth and lovely
I`m in your head so you`ll be thinking of me
So we met in Queens and went to Valley Streams
And, uh, couldn`t remember the movie we just seen
But it`s Wednesday, take the train uptown
How do the 125th street sound
Amateur night, Showtime at the Apollo
Probably be watching Bill Cosby tomorrow
Then after that get into it, I mean intimate
Every word is an instrument
Making sounds and tones and songs and moans
My lips so close to your ear, it`s like headphones
You smile, you said you never know what the day will bring
It`s always a new song to sing
The next day I went back to the her rest
Knocked on the door, intentions: finesse
She let me in and had nothing but a neglige on
Smelling like Liz Claiborne
I sat down and got comfortable and watched the Huxtables
She sat next to me and said what`s up wit you
I got the feeling for sexual healing
A mental healing ; how you feeling
She caught the effect and said she feel the same
Could you massage my intellect and stop the pain
Desire`s yearning, the fire`s burning
You hot `cause it`s alot you`re learning
Now I`m ready to explore you inner world
It`s take a long time cuz I`m just beginning, girl...
Take it easy, cut off the TV
Cut off the lights, use your mind to see me,
Use your physical form if I`m hard to find
`Cause now I know what`s on your mind...
`Cause now I know what`s on your mind...
