[Verse 1]
ADon't have to humble yourself to me, I ain't your judge or your king
CBaby, Gyou know I ain't no Queen of SAheba

CBaby, we can chGoose, you know we ain't no aAmoeba
[Chorus]
FAre you ready for the tBbhing called lCove
FDon't come from me and you, it Bbcomes from up aCbove
FI ain't no porcupineBb, take off your Ckid gloves
FAre you ready for the Dthing called lAove
[Verse 2]
AI ain't no icon carved out of soap, sent here to clean up your reputation
CBaby, Gyou know you ain't no Prince CharAming
AWe can live in fear or act out of hope, for some kind of peaceful situation
CBaby, how come the cGry of love is so alarAming
