Lyrics

Intro

- Come on, get out the way!

- The light's green. Move!

- I hate these gangster singers with their music loud. Ma'am! Ma'am, can you please turn your rap music down? You just woke my baby up. Dammit! O.K. I just called the cops

- Don't you ever interrupt me when I'm listening to a Monica record. (Oh)

[Intro: Missy]

Yeah, straight out the slumming streets of A-T-L

I know you waited for her arrival

Through the hurricanes and tornadoes and thunderstorms

The climate has now changed

And the storm is now over

I repeat the storm is now over

Let us begin

Hey, yo, Monica, turn the volume up!
