PassinMe By - The Pharcyde
Now in my younger days I used to sport a shag
When I went to school I carried lunch in a bag
With an apple for my teacher
'Cause I knew I'd get a kiss
Always got mad when the class was dismissed
But when it was in session
I always had a question
I would raise my hand to make
Her stagger to my desk and
Help me with my problem
It was never much
Just a trick to smell her scent
And try to sneak a touch
Oh how I wish I could hold her hand
And give her a hug
She was married to the man he was a thug
His name was lee he drove a z
He'd pick her up from school
Promptly at three o'clock
I was on her jock yes indeedy
I wrote graffiti on the bus
First I'd write her name then carve a plus
With my name last on the looking glass
I seen her yesterday but still I had to let her pass
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
Now when I dream of fairytales
I think of me and shelly
See she's my type of hype
And I can't stand when brothers tell me
That I should quit chasin' and
Look for something better
But the smile that she shows
Makes me a go getter
I haven't gone as far as asking
If I could get with her
I just play it by ear and hope she gets the picture
I'm shootin for her heart
Got my finger on the trigger
She could be my broad
And I could be her (ni**a)
Oh lucky to see
Back as kids we used to kiss
When we played truth or dare
Now she's more sophisticated
Highly edu ma cated
Not at all over rated
I think I need a prayer
To get in her boots and it looks rather dry
I guess a twinkle in her eye is just a twinkle in her eye
Although she's crazy steppin
I'll try to stop her stride
Cause I won't have no more of this passin me by
And I must voice my opinion of not even
Pretending she didn't have me
Strung like a chicken chase my tail like a doggie
She was kind of like a star thinking I was like a fan
Dude she looked good down side she had a man
He was a rooty toot a nincompoop
She told me soon your little birdie's
Gonna fly the coop
She was a flake like corn
And I was born not to understand
By lettin her pass I had proved to be a better man
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
Now there she goes again the dopest ethiopian
And now the world around me be
Gets movin in slow motion
When ever she happens to walk by
Why does the apple of my eye
Overlook and disregard my feelings
No matter how much I try
Wait no I did not really pursue
My little princess with persistance;
And I was so low key
That she was unaware of my existance
From a distance I desired secretly admired her;
Wired her a letter to get her
My dear my dear my dear
You do not know me but I know you very well
Now let me tell you about the feelings I have for you
When I try or make some sort of attempt I symp
Damn I wish I wasn't such a wimp
'Cause then I would let you know that I love you so
And if I was your man then I would be true
The only lying I would do is in the bed with you
Then I signed sincerely the one
Who loves you dearly ps love me tender
The letter came back three days later return to sender
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
She keeps on passin me by
