My Ex-Girlfriend (7" Version)

[Intro: Raphael Saadiq]

Yeah, baby, I don't want you to take this personal, what I'm about to say

In 1992 and 1993 about my ex

[Chorus: Tony! Toni! Toné!, Raphael Saadiq]

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfirend) is a ho

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, they say)

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

My, my, my ex

[Verse 1: Raphael Saadiq, Tony! Toni! Toné!]

I can't believe what they're telling me

That my ex-girl was living fantasies (My ex)

I'm feeling crazy 'cause I treated her so good

As good as anyone in the neighborhood

I should've known better 'cause they all told me

That there were even more than two or three (My еx)

But I was so into, to myself

I wouldn't listen to no one еlse but…

[Chorus: Tony! Toni! Toné!, Raphael Saadiq]

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(I don't believe they tried to tell me that)

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, they say my ex)

My, my, my ex

[Post-Chorus: Tony! Toni! Toné!]

Shadadooda, bidow, shabbadabbadabbadoodaba

Shabbadabbadoodaba

My, my, my ex

[Verse 2: Raphael Saadiq, Tony! Toni! Toné!]

Down the street, about two o'clock

I saw my brothers so, so I stopped (My ex)

They couldn't wait to talk to me

To put me up on the latest scene (My ex)

I just laughed 'cause I heard it all before

About my girl and the boy next door (My ex)

I paid her way through USC

But guess what? She was not down with me, they say…

[Chorus: Tony! Toni! Toné!, Raphael Saadiq]

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(I don't believe they tried to tell me that)

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, they say)

My ex

[Bridge: Tony! Toni! Toné!]

My ex

My ex

[Verse 3: Raphael Saadiq]

Next time someone tries to give me advice

I'll take my time, think it over twice (My ex)

I played a sucker and I played a fool

See, paying dues is the golden rule

I'll chalk it up as a lesson learned

So next time around I won't burned 'cause…

[Chorus: Tony! Toni! Toné!, Raphael Saadiq]

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(I can't believe they tried to tell me that)

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(And I don't believe they tried to tell me that)

My ex-girlfriend is a ho

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, they say)

My, my ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho (Oh baby)

My ex-girlfriend

(I don't believe what they're sayin', I don't believe what they're sayin')

Is a ho

(I don't believe it, I don't believe it, ooh, I don't believe it)

My ex-girlfriend (Girlfriend) is a ho

(My ex, my ex, my ex, my ex, my ex, my ex, my, my, my)

My ex-girlfriend (My, my, my, my, my, my) is a ho
