"Rehab"
Better Lyrics:
Jacky, Jacky
It is not fair
I've never felt something so wrong
You play like a hunter
And a strong man
All wrapped into one
With a cleaver on it
Then all of a sudden
I'm reeling
I didn't know what was wrong though
It's like I'm shot, it spun me around
Please stop, I am hurting
I think a bone inside me broke
When I tried to get back up
The pain's so bad I fainted
No weight on it
Don't even realize
The knee gave way and buckled
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you're the one to blame
And now I feel like Oh
You're reason I'm in pain and
I won't play hide-and-seek with Jacky anymore
There's only little bit of wishful thinking
I can walk, no ligaments has been torn
Paramedics has checked on me
I said Jacky bumped me, and I fell and
But, what is wrong with me?
Dislocated my kneecap
Now I need pain relief
Dislocated my kneecap
Jacky, you are so mean
I've gotta check into rehab
Need a small surgery
Also need Diazepam
Because I cannot sleep
It is not fair
I've never felt something so wrong
You play like a hunter
And a strong man
All wrapped into one
With a cleaver on it
Then all of a sudden
I'm reeling
I didn't know what was wrong though
It's like I'm shot, it spun me around
Please stop, I am hurting
I think a bone inside me broke
When I tried to get back up
The pain's so bad I fainted
No weight on it
Don't even realize
The knee gave way and buckled
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you're the one to blame
And now I feel like Oh
You're reason I'm in pain and
I won't play hide-and-seek with Jacky anymore
There's only little bit of wishful thinking
I can walk, no ligaments has been torn
Paramedics has checked on me
I said Jacky bumped me, and I fell and
But, what is wrong with me?
Dislocated my kneecap
Now I need pain relief
Dislocated my kneecap
Jacky, you are so mean
I've gotta check into rehab
Need a small surgery
Also need Diazepam
Because I cannot sleep
Original Lyrics:
Baby Baby
When we first met, I never felt something so strong
You were like my lover and my best friend
All wrapped into one with a ribbon on it
And all of a sudden you went and left
I didn't know how to follow
It's like a shock that spun me around
And now my heart's dead
I feel so empty and hollow
And I'll never give myself to another the way I gave it to ya (to ya)
Don't even recognize the ways you hurt me, do ya (do ya)?
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you are the one to blame
And now I feel like - ooh!
You're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't wanna smoke on these cigarettes no more
I guess that's what i get for wishful thinking
Should've never let you enter my door
Next time you wanna go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed
It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
When we first met, I never felt something so strong
You were like my lover and my best friend
All wrapped into one with a ribbon on it
And all of a sudden you went and left
I didn't know how to follow
It's like a shock that spun me around
And now my heart's dead
I feel so empty and hollow
And I'll never give myself to another the way I gave it to ya (to ya)
Don't even recognize the ways you hurt me, do ya (do ya)?

The Lyrics: The only problem is that you was using me In a different way that I was using you
Why: You 'were' using me. If you say you 'was' using me, that shows absolute uncertainty, but there is no chance involved, so that was wrong.
"If I Were a Boy" was correct that Beyonce was a woman, she can never become a man, so in the sense on absolute uncertainty and contemplation, you can break the rule that way, but not in the case above. Submitted by: Rocky Mak

Heavily edited for daytime airplay on BBC Radio 1, replacing references to "chains" and "whips" with appropriate sound effects and removing the repeated "S, S, S, S, M, M, M" chorus. To top it all off, the song was referred to as "Come On". It was played completely uncensored on commercial stations, the lyrics being mildly titillating at best.

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Attacked in London"
Rihanna got a bloody knee during a tussle at a London club when the reveler allegedly threw a bottle in her direction. Rihanna was in town to debut her River Island collection during London Fashion Week. After the show, Rihanna hit the Box club in London to celebrate. As she was leaving, a partygoer threw a bottle of British energy drink at her, yelling something about RiRi getting back together with controversial Chris Brown. The bottle missed, but she scratched her knee on a metal shop gate while dodging it, the Daily Mail reports.

"Happy with Chris Brown?"
Rihanna says if dating Chris Brown is a mistake, she's OK with that. The singer tells Rolling Stone in an interview that dating Brown makes her happy and "if it's a mistake, it's a mistake." She adds that she's ready to go public with her singer-boyfriend. Four years ago, Brown attacked Rihanna and was charged with a felony. But rumors about their relationship emerged after the singers collaboration on songs and appeared in photos together. Rihanna says she knows thta her history with 23 year old Brown is "not the cutest puzzle in the world." The 24 year old also vows that Brown is "disgusted" by what he did in the past. She syas the two have matured and they know "exactly what we have now, and we don't want to lose that."

"Honors Grandmother"
Pop star Rihanna has given $1.75 million to a hospital in her Caribbean homeland of Barbados in memory of her late grandmother. Rihanna says the donation to buy three pieces of medical equipment was her way of "giving back to Barbados." She made the comments during a ceremony with relatives at the island's Queen Elizabeth Hospital. The hospital's radiotherapy unit has been renamed the Clara Braithwaite Center for Oncology and Nuclear Medicine after Rihanna's grandmother who died in June 2012.

"Backstage with Chris Brown at VMAs"
Rihanna hugged, then briefly kissed ex-boyfriend Chris Brown just moments after her big win at the MTV VMAs for her hit "We Found Love." MTV showed the grainy footage shot from a distance on it website. Rihanna split from Brown in 2009 after Brown attacked her, leaving her bruised and battered. This new incident begs the question- does Rihanna have a Love-Hate relationship with Brown?
