Main Vein

(album: A Funk Odyssey - 2001)

What are you going to do to make me hate me?
I can't see, how you can this time
A fistful of lies and a verbal decimation
It's so sad but baby, keep on trying
I got me no chains or fancy aspirations
I've still got a losing streak
I don't need praise or instant admiration, no, no, no
It takes more than you to make me weak
I wanna know
What are you going to do to stop me this time, baby?
You've been trying to funk around with my mind lately
You know, you know, kinda messing around with my mind
You wanna mess round with my mind
Well, I'm getting so sick and tired of hearing about it
Like I'm not the man and I don't exist
You wanna know about this and you wanna know things about me
What you're saying always has a vicious poison twist
Baby, why do you do it to me?
Tell me, why do you do it to me? Why do you do it?
You're messing around with my mind
What are you going to do to stop me this time, baby?
What are you going to do? What are you going to do?
Now, tell me
What are you going to do to stop me this time, baby?
You've been trying to funk around with my mind lately
So what are you gonna do, yeah? What you gonna do?
What you gonna do to stop me this time, baby?
I know you can't stop me
You've been trying to mess around with my mind lately
You've been trying to mess around with my mind
What are you gonna do to stop me this time, baby?
You've been trying to mess around with my mind lately
You've been messing with my mind, you do it all the time
You've been messing with my mind, you know you do it all the time
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
Well, I'm breaking out, I'm breaking out
I'm flying higher than a pig in space
And they've been so blind, they've been so blind, yeah
Now, I was born in '69 and I'm telling the world
But they don't wanna know about me, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I wanted just to do my thing
I wanted just to make my life
Have that swing and let it go, I feel so good
All they wanna do is just mess with my mind
I know that all they wanna do is mess around with my mind
All they want to do is mess with my head, yeah, yeah
What are you gonna do to stop me this time, baby?
What are you gonna do to stop me this time, baby?
