Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)

You know it's kind of hard, just

to get along today,

our subject isn't cool,

but he fakes it anyway.

He may not have a clue and

he may not have style,

but everything he lacks, well,

he makes up in denial.

So don't debate, a player straight,

you know he really doesn't get it anyway.

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.

"For you no way, for you no way."

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate.

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki lake.

The world needs wannabe's, so...

Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!

And all girls say: "Pretty fly (For a white guy)"

He needs some cool tunes not

Just any will suffice,

But they didn't have Ice Cube,

So he bought Vanilla Ice.

Now cruising in his pinto, he sees homies as he pass,

But if he looks twice

They're gonna kick his lily ass.

So don't debate, a player straight,

you know he really doesn't get it anyway.

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.

"For you no way, for you no way."

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate.

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki lake.

The world needs wannabe's, so...

Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!

Now he's getting a tattoo, Yeah.

He's gettin' ink done.

He asked for a '13', but they drew a '31'.

Friends say he's trying too hard

and he's not quite hip,

but in his own mind

he's the ****** trip.

So don't debate, a player straight,

you know he really doesn't get it anyway.

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.

"For you no way, for you no way."

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate.

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki lake.

The world needs wannabe's

The world loves wannabe's, so...

let's get some more wannabe's,

Hey, hey, do that brand new thing
