Ahe handed me a heart-shaped locket
That said, 'Design on self three two.'
She handed me a heart-shaped locket
That said, 'To thine own self be true'
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my ivory shoe
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my high heeled shoe
But my name is ball
Put my name in bold
Can't you taste this goat?
Can't you taste this gold?
Can't you taste this gum?
Can't you taste this gold?
Cup of Ace, Cup of Deuce, Cup of Kris...
Cup of Ace, cup of goose, cup of Kris...
Do that, do that, Ah-Jiji-what
That do that, do that, Ah-Jiji-what
Do that, do that, Ah-Jiji-what
Who that, who that, I-G-G-Y
That do that, do that, I-I-G-G-Y
Who that, who that, I-I-I-G-G-Y
First things first, amaryllis
First things first, I'm the realest
What on earth does an amaryllis have to do with being "fancy"?
From Head to Tokyo
From L.A. to Tokyo
Get your places, go!
Can't you taste this gold?
Here's the one chance
Panties won't let me down.
Here's your one chance
Fancy, don't let me down.
Here's your one chance, pappy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance
Fancy, go milk a cow.
Here's your one chance
Fancy, don't let me down.
Here's your watch and Fancy,
don't let me down
Here's your one chance, Fancy,
don't let me down
Here's your watch
And Fancy, don't let me down.
Here's your one chance
Fancy, don't let me down.
Here's your watch
Fancy, don't let me down.
Here's your one chance
Fancy, don't let me down.
I'm so fan, see? Can't you taste this goat?
I'm so fancy! Can't you taste this gold?
I'm so fancy
You're really ugly
I'm so fancy
You already know
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this girl?
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
I'm so fancy, you already know I don't wear panties, in L.A. or Tokyo
I'm so fancy, you already know I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, you already know you buy my panties in L.A. and Tokyo
I'm so fancy, you already know I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy
You already know I'm in the fast lane
From Hell into Tokyo
I'm so fancy
You already know I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so offensive
I'm so fancy
I'm so passé
I'm so fancy
Passé is French for old school
Just another part of you
Just a little pieu
Like we're bringing an idiot back
Like we're bringing 88 back
The video is a Clueless homage, so it makes sense.
Mama died in a heap in back
Mama died and I ain't been back
Momma died of an achin' back
Momma died and I ain't been back
Mother died in her haven black
Mama died and I ain't been back
Never stop like we’re bringin' '88 back
(Never) Rooftop like we’re bringin' '88 back
She handed me a hardship-locking cassette
'Cause I don't self-protrude
Then I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my ivory shoe
She handed me a heart-shaped locket that said,
"To thine own self be true."
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my high-heeled shoe
Well, I maybe been born just wanie like trash
But Nacey was my name.
Well, maybe just born plain white trash
But Fancy was my name.
You're a lion and a cheetah.
You's a liar and a cheater.
