Sister your time has come
Got to lay it down, got to get things done
But you're looking so hard and you just can't see
Trying so hard dragging on meI'll tell you something, baby
I'll tell you what I knowIt's oh, so cold do what you're told
It's hard when they're telling you no
I said, it's oh, so cold, do what you're told
With all the lies that they hold inside their handsMother, got to lay it down
To be number one on this side of town
But you're looking so hard you just can't see
Trying so hard dragging on meI'll tell you something, baby
I'll tell what I knowIt's oh, so cold do what you're told
With all the lies that they hold inside their handsStop those lies just don't see
Stop those lies, get away from meIt's oh, so cold do what you're told
It's hard when they're telling you no
I said, it's oh, so cold, do what you're told
With all the lies that they hold inside their hands
