Jill Scott - Wild Cookie lyrics

Hear Ye hear ye Anybody that can listen Come listen Having faith in the rest of you Will be an amazing Awakening An Ego-Reshapening Pencil-Sharpening Heart-Mending A Pride Shifting And a cure to the Wild Cookie Now, Wild Cookie choices lead to lonely pregnancy And anybody that knows Knows that ain't all it could be Scuffling to make sense out of his missing presence In the current tense When the romance is gone Just paper and pen Infant and journal tear Private and public embarra**ment The demise of a dreamer's dream A girl not so unlike me Sick with some sh** that just shouldn't be 'Cause her desire to be desired and his way would pee pee Oh, Wild Cookie Stop Now, count your blessins All these kids and the systems don't know where they are 'Cause their momma and daddy done lef'em It's a pandemic Just the other day My girlfriend said she was watching TV And her Wild Cookie detached from it's seat And was strolling down a hundred twenty fifth yelling "Somebody, anybody COME GET ME!!" She caught her Wild Cookie in between two parked cars With a foolish man enticing it with a candy bar Nameless prick Attached to some guy who just wanted to escape his troubles for a bit She cried Aww Cookie, you got to work wit me You can't rule my world You don't have no brain You ain't meant to lead You mean... I mean you can get a couple of things But things are things And I deserve to feel my heart ring Come on in the house Come on now, Wild Cookie Let's listen to Jill sing
