Otha Fish Songtext

von The Pharcyde

TALKING:
(Yeah, bam, bam, bam, hey, what's up? yeah. We was like that you know.
Yeah, and I bet you got layed back)

(Yeah, I'ma, uh, I'm a just sit in here for a couple of hours)

(Man, don't sweat it, yo, we gonna kick some stuff, dude)

(Word up, I'm kinda tired)

(Nah, we got a basket, we're gonna fill this basket before we go, yo)

(Aight, bro)

(Cuz there are otha fish...)

[Slim Kid Tre]
It took a second to register up in my branium
My dome, my head, my skull, my cranium
My eyes had had enough, it was time to do some talkin
I had to creep through the hound-dogs that were stalkin
This slimmy caught me peepin,
This means she wasn't sleepin
On who I was, so she creeped in like a hawk. In
A minutes time, we adjourned to the floor. Ooh! I hit a high note cuz of the
Way that she was walkin
We got into the groove, I didn't bust no, uh, hip-hop moves
I just kept it nice and smooth
Next thing you know, we got together, word, I thought we'd be forever
Didn't have an um-ber-ella, now I'm soaked in stormy weather, whether
True it would be fly to be together
Never sympin
And leave your love life limp
There'll be no suicide attempts for this slim-trim kid
Cuz you know there's otha fish in the sea, that is, in the sea
In the sea that is

(Chorus 3X)
(In the sea) You know there's otha fish in the sea that is

I reminisce, try to clear up all the mythes
For an imaginary kiss with you again
Not even friends, though I wish that I could mend
Like a tailor and be Olive Oyl's number one sailor
I ams what I am, still I falls like an anvil
She's heavy on the mind sometimes is more than I can handle
But men aren't supposed to tumble in to the den-B
Macho, but I hancho like Pancho will give in
Family oriented, but not Oriental
A dame is supposed to claim you
Even if you drive a Pinto
A hero is a sandwhich, and a Manwhich is a meal
A marriage is a paper, are they fakin or for real?
What's the deal Jabber?
Will you go tumbling after you're man and take a stand
Or will you hear them roll faster?
The reason why I ask you is because I'm sick of this
Bitch lickin drip drip from a niggaz benefits
He doesn't even suit ya and he's surely not ya size
I'm surprised that you slept on a heart that's world-wide
And when ya open up ya eyes, babe, my mate, I really wish
That ya don't bruise a limb, as ya swim with otha fish in the sea
In the sea that is

(Chorus 3X)

Now, if there ain't no mountain high enough
Why ain't you climbin up?
My hand has been extended ever since the day I lent it to ya
I thought I knew ya, but I didn't even know ya
Bro, you're stupid, cuz ya thought ya catchin cupid
And you found that love ain't two wiffs of shit
So I resign or quit
It ain't even about the hips
Or the lips or the tits or
Even the pussy-wip
Elizabeth, this is it
Becuz I slipped and I tripped into a shoe that didn't fit
And now the next man is stealing my heart away
I'd charge him like a bull, but his pull never fades me
The kid is going crazy, they steppin' with my lady
They workin on a baby, I'm pushin up the daisies
But hey diddle diddle
I won't play second fiddle
To no man who stand firm on this
And seal up on the bliss
With a big juicy kiss
Just call me Big Gibraltor miss
No, I won't dis, I'm just like on to otha fish in the sea
In the sea that is

(Chorus 3X)

You know there's otha, you know that there's otha
(chorus repeats 20X)

In the sea, baby (4X)
