Lyrics
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany (Say what?)
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany (Say what?)
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany, mean
Oh, you gotta do that again, Dove
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany (Say what?)
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany (Say what?)
Meany, meany, meany, meany, meany, mean (OK)
Hello, its the Soul
Troopin in wit the Jungle patrol
And this ones about the KOs, the knockouts out there
Who I call my buddy
Hold up (Wait a minute)
Now just wait
Were gonna talk about Buddy on this plate
But before we let the herd out the gate
Make sure the all the levels are straight out
(The Jungle, the Jungle, the Brothers, the Brothers)
De La Soul, on a roll
Black medallions, no gold
Hangin out wit Pos, hangin out wit Mase
Buddy buddy buddy all in my face
For the lap, Jimbrowski must wear a cap
Just in case the young girl likes to clap
Aint for the wind but before I begin
I initiate the buddy with a slap
Now drop the beat, for the Phifer from A Tribe Called Quest
When I see Buddy, I will never half step
I just do her Tribal style and then jet
The Buddy that I like is to be sexy and nice
Just good enough for the one they call Phife
A brown skin Buddy with shoulder length hair
Nice firm breasts and a round derrierre
Now for the next, Im the Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest
And if you quest for the Buddy, dont fess
If your jimmy wants nothing but the best (the best)
The best (Ooh Wee!)
Lets stick out the jimmy and see what we can catch
(Stick em up, stick em up jimmy)
Nets wont be needed unless
(Jenny wanna get right to the flesh)
Dancin on the dance floor
Girl, its you that I adore
Step off stage, you scream for more
Native Tongues got rhymes galore
Fly buddy (buddy) dont you know you make me go nutty (nutty)
Im so glad that youre not a fuddy duddy (duddy)
Not too skinny and not too chubby (chubby)
Soft like silly putty
Miss Crabtree (Crabtree), I know that youre not mad at me (at me)
Cuz I told you that it was your buddy (buddy)
That was making me ever so horny (horny)
Junglelistically horny
I wont lie, I love B-U-D-D-Y
Cause I never let it walk on by
When it comes to me and Jenny, I seem (very serious)
Like a peek freen
Buddy is an act that occurs on the lift
When Jimmy and Jenny start shootin the gift
Boy let me get shot, I wont even riff
On the dial, my Buddy talks to me for a while
Plug Two is the {Q to her Tip}
On the A-side or sometimes the flip (word up)
Buddy, is the bud to my daisy tree (uh huh)
And the luden to my do-re-mi
And the pleaser to my man Plug Three
(Plug Three gets the whole caboodle)
Behind the bush, my Buddy likes the way that I push
And like a champ, just knock it on out
Never ever once sellin out
(Well let loose the juice)
My Buddy helps me to (De La my Soul)
Keepin Jimmy in total control
Without Buddy, Id be on a roll
Now as the lady
I thought that Jungle and Quest and Soul would just maybe
Give me the chance to say that I get crazy
Due to the fact I let Buddy amaze me
As a matter of fact, it crazes me in many ways
I decided that it was time for Monie Love to say
That when it comes to the B, you know that I dont play
Cause to me, chasin Buddy is the perfect way (perfect way)
To spend the day (to spend the day)
Oooh child, things are gettin a little easier
Oooh Buddy gets easier (yeah)
Oooh child, things are gettin a little easier
Oooh Buddy gets easier
Girl, I heard youre lookin for some good times
If you Quest from the Soul, guess what well find
Whole lotta fun, lots of fun together
Just like kissin cousins (Yeah, thats kinda clever)
Close like bosoms, bosoms stay close
If you be my Buddy, I will toast
That were like Ethel Mertz and Lucille McGillicuddy
You can be mine and I can be your Buddy
The best Buddys in evening wear
Long lovin lets Tru know (hes in there)
I feel sorry for those who pay a fare (a fee?)
Word to the D
I dont beg, I just tease my Buddy with my right leg (ha-ha)
And then when its ready whats said
Is Buddy is best in bed (Word to the D)
Buddy buddy told us all to get into a circle
Said dont bug because I wont hurt you
All I really wanna do is freak you
(You know what? She freaked us)
And I watched and then I checked my Swatch to see the time
The Tribe had formed a Buddy line
And that Buddy was mine, all mine
Now when Quest, Jungle and De La Soul
Is at the clubs, our ritual unfolds
Grab our bones and start swingin our hands
(Then Jenny start flockin in everywhere)
Cause Jenifa just wants to stay aware
Yo fellas, should we keep her aware?
(Mmm, Hmm...yeah!!!)
