[Intro: Left Eye]
Yo, 'dis is TLC
Yeah, and we're back to school da girlies
And if 'n ya know dat yo man is bout ta flip

Y'all know we ain't down for no monkey business
Erri uuhh erri uuhh erri
It ain't even like that
Yo, T-Boz, kick it!
[Verse 1: T-Boz]
When you know that it's good and you know that it's hot
All the girlies want a piece of what you've got
When a man is a man and it's all in his face, ah
He's 'gon jump all on it 'cause it be's that way
Gotta get up on it, put your heart aside
Ain't about that lovin', it's all about that pride
If you do unto him, what he does all the time
That's the only thing for sure to keep that nigga in line, you gotta go
[Chorus: All]
Shock that monkey (Shock 'em good, shock 'em good)
Shock that monkey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

[Verse 2: T-Boz]
If he plays in the field and he's shamin' your name, ah
Got no time for tears, you can get in the game
If a man is a man, and he calls you a ho
Ain't no point in playin' if he doesn't know, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 1: Chilli]
Don't let him know if you don't go through it, ah
And if it blows, hey, just don't sweat it
Now you're in control if you just don't screw it
Then shock him before, he knows you know, so

[Verse 3: Left Eye]
Yo, you wanna know somethin'? I'm in a situation
Like it or not, it's you, your own creation
Lendin' a leg 'cause you ain't too proud to beg
For a quick sensation invitation
And bein' that I am the kinda girl that I am
Lend a hand and dare you to give a damn
'Cause his story can be my story too
Ooh, monkey see, monkey do
[Pre-Chorus 2: T-Boz & Chilli]
When you know that it's good and you know that it's hot
All the girlies want a piece of what you've got

He's 'gon jump all on it, 'cause it be's that way, yeah
[Chorus: All]
Shock that monkey (Shock 'em good, shock 'em good)
