Confessions

[Intro: Beyoncé & Missy Elliott]

Uh, uh, uh

Ooh-ooh (Uh)

Ooh-ooh, ooh (Uh-uh-uh)

Ooh-oh, no, ooh (Say what?)

Ooh-ooh no-no (Verse one)

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]

The day you pissed me off, I told Mike to pick me up

I told him you was buggin', and I don't like to fuss

He said he would look out for me if I needed a friend

He took me to his house and then he invited me in (Say what?)

Then we sat on the couch, he put his arms around my waist

Knowin' I need lovin', then he gently grabbed my face

He kissed me like a guy could never kiss a girl before

So you know what happened, baby, I need to say no more

[Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]

I'm just confessing (Confessing)

'Bout the things I did (Oh, yeah)

I might as well come clean (Yeah, yeah)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just confessing (Yeah)

'Bout the things I did (Oh)

I might as well come clean (Come clean)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just guessing (Guessing, yeah)

That you're through with me

'Cause I just came clean (Please don't be through with me)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just guessing

Are you through with me? (Are you through with me?)

'Cause I just came clean (Yeah)

What you feel about that? (Verse two)

[Verse 2: Beyoncé]

Remember the time you wondered where your money went?

I called my friends and bought some clothes and took them on a trip

I met a dude that had a Jeep and we talked all the time

He asked me 'bout my man and you know that I had to lie

He thought I had no man and I was chillin' by myself

Don't get mad 'cause I felt sad, that's why I must confess

Too many times I wanted to let you know my dirt

But every time you said you loved me I knew it would hurt

[Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]

I'm just confessing (Confessing, yeah)

'Bout the things I did (Oh, woah)

I might as well come clean (Come clean, oh)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just confessing (Confessing)

'Bout the things I did (Yeah)

I might as well come clean (Come clean, hey)

What you feel about that, baby? (Come clean, hey, yeah)

I'm just guessing

That you're through with me (Are you through with me?)

'Cause I just came clean (Came clean)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just guessing (Guessing)

Are you through with me? (Are you through with me?)

'Cause I just came clean

What you feel about that? (Ooh, hey, le-le-le-le-loo)

[Bridge: Beyoncé]

I was mad, what was I to do? (Hey)

I never had it in mind to play on you (Ooh)

But look at all the hurt you put me through (Oh)

I can't tell a lie, so I'm tellin' the truth (Ooh)

I was mad, what was I to do? (Say what?)

I never had it in mind to play on you (Ooh)

But look at all the hurt you put me through

You know, you know (You know)

I was mad, what was I to do? (I to do)

I never had it in mind to play on you (Play on you)

But look at all the hurt you put me through (Ooh)

I can't tell a lie, so I'm tellin' the truth (No no, no)

I was mad, what was I to do? (Ooh)

I never had it in mind to play on you (Hey)

But look at all the hurt you put me through (Oh)

You know, you know (Oh, oh)

[Chorus: Destiny's Child & Beyoncé]

I'm just confessing (Confessing)

'Bout the things I did (Things I did)

I might as well come clean (Come clean)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just confessing (Confessing)

'Bout the things I did (Things I did)

I might as well come clean (Oh-ooh, oh)

What you feel about that, baby? (Hey-yeah)

I'm just guessing

That you're through with me (Are you through with me, oh?)

'Cause I just came clean (Came clean)

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just guessing (Guessing)

Are you through with me?

'Cause I just came clean (Oh)

What you feel about that? (Ooh, yeah)

[Interlude: Missy Elliott]

Confess

Come clean, boo

Yo, what you feel about that?

What you feel about—, uh

What you feel about that?

Huh, confessin', baby

Misdemeanor, Destiny, uh-uh-uh

[Chorus: Destiny's Child]

I'm just guessing

That you're through with me

'Cause I just came clean

What you feel about that, baby?

I'm just guessing

Are you through with me?

[Outro: LaTavia]
