Gimme the Finga Lyrics

[Intro]
Love you, mama

[Verse 1]
Now when you see me, it's me that you see
And when you see Lawnge, yo, that's who he be
Never been one for frontin', G
How'd we get so fly? Came naturally
Make it a point to sleep 'til midday
A job, a job? A-heh, okay
When we do arise, it's time for brunch
Ham and eggs, two pig's feet and Cap'n Crunch
When we get dressed, the Barrio, we get dipped
The hair gets brushed, the whiskers they get clipped
Over to the mirror, yeah we look okay
Dial tone 2-1-2-A-O-J-O-J-O-J
It's a daily thing for Black Sheep, my friend
Yo driver, pull over, I need my midday Heineken
About to pout, no doubt your wish
Clockin' from a corner while you're eating a knish
Maybe another lifetime, G
I hope to see that you're as fly as we
Are not stars, but super as a sinner
You know you wanna
Come on, gimme the finga
[Chorus]
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Gimme the finga
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Please

[Verse 2]
Got an accountant named Mel, a lawyer named Jay
My engineer Lyle who lives in Studio A
My manager Chris keeps my pockets well-fed
Got a honey for each box spring coil in my bed
My crib's all that without introduction
Do I read books? Nah, I read instructions too
Things you see when you window wish
Sippin' on a soda to help wash the knish
I do what I want and I answer to who?
No one, heh, I thought you knew
My favorite meal is anything with meat
My favorite quote, "Can I have a receipt?"
My favorite show is Who's the Boss
And my favorite ho is yours of course
And everyday is Saturday, my friend
Go to sleep, wake up
Yo, it's Saturday again
It's fly, gettin' paid to do what you want
Don't believe me?
*Burp* See?
[Chorus]
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Gimme the finga
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Please

[Verse 3]
Not that I like talking of the things that I possess
I know that some have more, although most do have less
It's just that I wanna say, I live a life in the day
Didn't have to wait 'til I was gloomy, old, or gray
I simply put my foot forward in a direction
That's called a step, then I follow with the next one
Kept on steppin', no matter what happened
Kept my eyes open, and kept hands clappin'
Did what I had to do when I had to do it
Didn't wanna say "Huh?" when I should've knew it
So, I persevered from the beginning
Now that I'm in Black Sheep, out to win
So when you see me, stick it up, G
No, it's not a diss, it's makin' me happy
Lettin' me know that you did what you heard
Darin' to say that society's absurd
Let it be known that you gotta go for the gusto
Be a head of house to the head ho
Don't let nobody tell you what you cannot be
Don't let nobody tell you what you cannot do
Enough of the tours, it's time to get yours
Otherwise, I guess I'll have to give the finga to you
[Chorus]
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Gimme the finga
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
I know you wanna, you know you wanna
Please

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
