Dark Skin Girls Lyrics


As simple as it sounds
it's as simple as it ought to be
light skin girls lack the dark skin quality
ya don't understand?
You want an explanation?
Well let D-e-L release the frustration
as I see it
every single day
light skin girls ain't satisfied unless they get their way
always
plus they act stuck up
they all add up to one great big phuck up
they try to play suck up
when they want somethin'
then always leave a brother with nothin'
ya think ya look better cause ya skin's a little bit lighter?
You're thinkin' you're my type
like I was a typewriter?

No, ya think ya all-uh-that and all-uh-this
but you ain't really shit
without a makeup kit
see, ya might be light
but ya ugly to me
black is beautiful
to me, that's beauty.
[CHROUS:]
"Dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't
better than dark skin,...
CUBE: I disagree homeboy!"
Now
lets get to the problems
and see if there's a way to solve them
problem #1, has got to be the attitude
which is usually vain, selfish & rude
personality, wit 'er nose stuck up
so don't try talkin' to her
or walkin' with her
to class cause it's out of the question
cause you bein' dark is the wrong complexion
for her,
she wish she was light, though
I mean lighter than light
or as close to white as possible
but I fight to stay a brother
you see,
green and dark skin sisters are the color
this don't apply to all the girls with light skin
just the ones with their heads up their rear end
cause if ya did, static would occur
dark skin cuties is what I prefer
now, look at her
her vision is a blur
cause contact lenses only let ya see Benzes
plus she would fuss & cuss if I tried to talk to her
cause I'm a man who rides the bus
I get frustrated
well, lets say I used to
now a dark & lovely
is who I give juice to
so come on
step to Del if ya with this
this is the facts
so brothers don't forget this.
[CHORUS:]
[INTERLUDE:]
I can't understand
you light skin wenches
ya think ya all that cause ya have long extensions?
Your hair was natural
now ya got played out braids
you woulda looked better with a fade
dark skin girls are so fly, so honest, so sweet
that's the type of girl I wanna meet
complete,
not phony or a fake like you are
see, Del is bolder
I tap you on the shoulder
and say, 'Hey lighty
could you tap that sister for me?'
But you love Mr. Loveable
so you'll just ignore me
so find another tip that you can hop upon
to get with me ya need some sun and some Coppertone
you'll take a white boyfriend before a black one
that's why Del has to stand and attack one
next time you see a girl darker than you
no disrespct when you met her, cause the girl looked better than you.
[CHORUS:]
[INTERLUDE:]

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Del tha Funkee Homosapien is an alternative hip-hop artist. Del was born Teren Delvon Jones, August 12, 1972, in Oakland, California. Del was part of his cousin Ice Cube’s backing band Da Lench Mob and made his first solo album, I Wish My Brother George Was Here, with support from his cousin in 1991. Critics and fans had mixed opinions about the album, many feeling that Del’s and Cube’s styles weren't an ideal match. Del decided to part ways with his cousin for his next album, No Need for Alarm, which allowed him to find his own style and subject matter, and also start his own crew, Hieroglyphics.

In 1996, Del was ready to release his Future Development album. However, just before its release, Del was released from his recording contract with Elektra Records. Around this same time, Souls of Mischief, Extra Prolific and Casual (all members of Del's Hieroglyphics group) were all released from their recording contracts with Jive Records. Frustrated, Del and the rest of Hieroglyphics decided to start their own record label, called Hieroglyphics Imperium. Because of the problems with Elektra, Future Development was available only on cassette via the Hieroglyphics website for a time, until its eventual widespread release on CD in 2002, six years after its proposed release date.

The mistreatment of Del & Hieroglyphics by their record labels became infamous in hip-hop circles, as a perfect example of "industry rule #4080" (record company people are shady). After Hieroglyphics' successful reemergence with their own independent label, Del & Hieroglyphics became an inspiration for some rap artists to start their own labels while keeping the lion's share of the money for themselves. Arguably the efforts of Del & Hieroglyphics paved the way for other famous independent rap labels known today, such as Roc-a-Fella Records or Rawkus Records.

In 1998, Hieroglyphics came out with their first full length album, Third Eye Vision, in which Del shined. The album was well received by both fans and critics. Two years later, Del came out with Both Sides of the Brain, and in 2001, he released Deltron 3030 with Dan the Automator Nakamura and Kid Koala, which garnered extreme praise for its combination of beats and flow and futuristic style. Deltron 3030 helped expand Del’s audience, though not quite to the commercial mainstream.

Del collaborated with Gorillaz for two songs on their debut album, both of which became singles: "Clint Eastwood" and "Rock the House". In their videos he was portrayed as a clown-like ghost. 2003 saw the release of Full Circle, a second album with the Hiero crew. This latest album has gotten many mixed reviews, with some people liking its originality and display of talents of the entire crew, whereas some have complained that Del was seen only sporadically on the album, acting more like a guest artist.

Del’s lyrics often reflect his imaginative interests, offering humor and themes not usually found in most new hip hop, including video games, bad hygiene, intergalactic rap battles, and more. In 2000, the song "Positive Contact" from Deltron 3030 was featured in the game Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX. In 2001, the song "If You Must" was featured in the game Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. In 2003, the song "Positive Contact" was again featured in a video game - this time in Tony Hawk's Underground. In 2005, the song "Burnt" featuring Hieroglyphics was featured in the game Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland. In 2006, his song "Catch a Bad One" was featured in the game Mark Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure.

Eight years following his last solo album, Both Sides of the Brain, in March 2008 Del released his newest solo, titled Eleventh Hour, under the Definitive Jux record label.

In 2009, Del released Del's Leak Pack #1 (download) & #2 (download) via his MySpace page. In April of 2009 he released his 6th solo album, Funk Man (The Stimulus Package). The album was released online and can be downloaded for free here. He also released a second new solo album, Automatic Statik, via his BandCamp site in September of 2009. October of 2009 saw the release of Del's collaboration with Tame One, entitled Parallel Uni-verses.
