I'm Not Soupped

(album: Attitude - 1989)

"Girl, he had nerve to have an attitude last night when I called his house"
"Say what!"
"Uh-huh, and I don't like him anyway 'cause him and his group is conceited and they're all soupped up on theirselves"
"Oh no, not you again. Come on."

They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...

They say I'm an arrogant man
They say I'm a selfish man
But I want you to understand that I'm not soupped
I'm just a serious guy who doesn't really understand why
These people seem to think that I'm so cute

Hi, I'm just an average man
Can I get a little time to explain (my point of view)
But they don't understand the life I live
And don't really live the life I know
Why can't they leave me alone?

They say I'm ego tripping, my mind is slipping
But I want you to know that I'm not soupped
Everybody saying things about me
They just don't seem to really know me
'Cause I'm not soupped

They say I've got a one-track mind
I don't even know wrong from right
But don't you let them make you blind
I'm not soupped
I'm just a simple man, and I really don't understand
What I did to make them think that I'm so soupped

Hi, I'm just an average man
Can I please get time to explain (my point of view)
And they don't understand the life I live
And don't really live the life I know
Why can't they leave me alone? Yeah

They say I'm ego tripping, my mind is slipping
But I want you to know that I'm not soupped
Everybody saying things about me
They just don't seem to really know me
'Cause I'm not soupped

They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...
I'm not soupped... hey

Hi, I'm just an average man
Will you just try to understand (my point of view)
And they don't understand the life I live
And don't really live the life I know
Why can't they leave me alone?

They say I'm ego tripping and my mind is slipping
Oh, I'm not soupped
Everybody saying things about me
(They say about me... they said about me)
I'm not soupped
They say I'm ego tripping and my mind is slipping
I'm not soupped
Everybody saying things about me
(They said about me... they said about me)
I'm not soupped
They say I'm ego tripping, my mind is slipping
I'm not soupped
Everybody saying things about me
(The things they're saying about me...)
I'm not soupped
(Why can't they just get off my tip?)

They say I'm...
They say I'm...
They say I'm...

"Not you again... come on... "
