Why Try

What's up all you cats and kittens
This is Quest Love and you're listening to the TATB
And here is "Why Try" by Tank and the Bangas

Flowers, just because it's Monday
Raindrops falling only one way
Showers (showers), clouds ain't smiling always
Bus stop (bus stop), can you take me his way?

Why try? (Try)
Why lie?
Oh, why try?
Oh, why lie?

Sidewalks, take forever somedays (woo, woo)
Driving (driving), cruising down the freeway
Maybe (maybe), I could take the l train (yeah)
Baby, why you act so funny?

Why (why, baby?) try? (Why do I try?)
Why (oh, why) lie? (I'm sitting here fighting, baby?)
Oh, why try? (Hey)
Oh, why (oh, why) lie? (I'm trying)

I know you see me calling, why you stalling? (Oh-oh-oh)
Wonder, did you even read my text today? (Oh-oh-oh)
St. Tropez like dreams, so why you playing?
Got inner city blues like Marvin Gaye (Gaye)
Oh, you know I'm trying, baby

Modest, why be when you can't stay? (You can't even stay, girl)
Lately, you been actin' shady
Tell me, why you do me that way?
Bus stop (bus stop), I got a ticket, one way

Why try?
Why lie?
Oh, why try? (You know it, hey)
Oh, why lie? (Why try?)
Why try?
Why lie? (Oh, you know)

Oh, why try? (Our love is gone now)
Oh, why lie? (Our love is gone now)
Why try? (I would never do that to my baby)
Why lie? (I would never do that to my boy)
Oh why try? (I'm driving halfway around the town to get to you)
