intro✦
(Makaveli✦ the Don), the money✦ behind✦ the dreams
My right hand
My other✦ Capo✦ in this big - war we got (Makaveli✦ the Don)
My other✦ Capo✦ in this big -
Conglomerate called✦ Death Row (Makaveli✦ the Don)
Snoop - Dogg, Tha Doggfather
And who we hear comin'✦ through right now? (Makaveli✦ the Don)
Makaveli✦ the Don, feel this, Killuminati (toss that up)
verse
Lord have mercy,✦ Father✦ help us all (yeah)
Since you supplied your phone number,✦ I can't help but call
Time for action,✦ conversating,✦ we relaxing, kicking back
Got you curious for thug passion, now picture✦ that
Tongue-kissing, hand full of hair, look in my eyes
Time to make the bed rock, baby,✦ look how it rise
Me and you moving✦ in the nude, do it in the living✦ room
Sweating✦ up the sheets, it's the Thug in me
I mean no - when I tongue-kiss your neck
I go a long way to get you wet, what you expect?
Late night, hit the highway, drop the top
I pull over,✦ getting busy✦ in the parking lot (that's right)
And don't you love it how I lick your hips and glide?
Kiss you soft on your stomach, push my love inside✦
Got you lost in a love zone, stuck in the lust
I got the bedroom shaking,✦ back-breaking✦ when we're tossing it up
Feel this, baby✦ (yeah), I like the way it's going down
When nobody's✦ around,✦ slip-slide ride, giving✦ me that nice smile
The thing I like, what I want to give all night
You and me alone,✦ everybody's✦ gone, toss it up
Baby,✦ let's get it on!
I like the way you please me, baby✦ (yeah)
The sexy✦ way you tease me, shorty✦ (that's right)
The way you move your body✦
It really✦ drives✦ me crazy✦
Your body's hypnotizing✦ (hypnotizing),✦ your smell is so exciting✦ (so exciting)✦
So, baby,✦ come on home with me
I like the way you give it to me, baby✦
chorus✦
I like the way you give it to me
Let me see you toss it up
I said, I like the way you give it to me
Let me see you toss it up
I like the way you give it to me
Let me see you toss it up
Said, I like the way you give it to me
Let me see you toss it up
hook
Play on, play on, play on, play on (oh, baby)✦

verse
Oh, it's K-Ci, baby✦ (yes), mm, that want you, lady✦ (yes)
Oh, don't act so shady✦
Baby,✦ your taste is fine as gravy✦
The way you move that thing
You make me wanna✦ sing
Girl, you make my bells ring (sing it with me)
Make them go ting-a-ling!
Nasty✦ man, I'm here again✦
Don't want it to ever✦ end
It's feeling too good

Back it up, yo, let me in there
Toss it up for me

So won't you play on
verse
How do you want it? What's your phone number?✦ I Get Around✦
Cali✦ Love to my true Thugs, picture✦ me now
Still down for that Death Row sound, searchin' for paydays
No longer✦ Dre Day, arrivederci
Blown and forgotten, rotten✦ for plottin' child's play (word)
Check your sexuality, as fruity✦ as this Alizé (word)
Quick to jump ship, punk trick, what a dumb move
Cross Death Row, now who you gon' run to?
Laugh at you suckers✦ 'cause you similar
Pretending to be hard, oh, my God, check your temperature✦
Screaming, "Compton!," but you can't return, you ain't heard?
Brothers pissed✦ 'cause you switched and escaped to the burbs
Mob on to this new era,✦ 'cause we untouchable
Still can't believe that you got Pac rushing you
Up in you, bless the real, all the rest get killed✦
Who can you trust? Only✦ time reveals, toss it up
outro✦
On and on, yeah, and on
Let me see you toss it up (toss it up)
Won't you toss it up (yeah, no doubt)
Won't you toss it up, yeah (let me see you toss it up), play on, player, play on
How can some non-players✦ do a song about✦ tossin'✦ it up, do a player song?
(Ay, Lil' Kim, you ain't little no more, you ain't check the weight scale lately✦ have you?)
How can non-players✦ do that? (You are not little Kim, you fat bitch, get it straight)
(You know who I'm talkin'✦ 'bout) Teddy✦ Riley?✦ Who?
Puffy,✦ I read your little interview (who?) Buddy,✦ c'mon
You still ain't touching us, all that peace talk
I don't care if you kiss my - from here to across✦ the street, boy
It's on! Toss it up, we took you on
And we took y'all beat (toss it up)
You know who beat we took, and we took y'all beat
'Cause you wasn't rocking✦ it right (toss it up now)
Tired✦ of suckers✦ rocking✦ beats that don't belong✦ to them
Toss it up, it's on, it's out there now, it's our beat now (yeah, toss it up now)

Verified Doubles & Entendres
"Time to make the bed rock"
① Physical act of engaging in sexual intercourse with enough intensity to shake the furniture② A double entendre referencing the Flintstones' 'Bedrock' or simply the literal foundation of the bed
"I go a long way to get you wet"
① Physical sexual arousal② The literal effort spent in the act of seduction and foreplay
Exceptional command of rhythmic pocket and flow
High level of vocal charisma and intensity
Strong structural consistency that maintains momentum
Low thematic depth relative to other 1996 standards
Literal approach to lyricism limits wordplay ceiling
Lacks the complex multisyllabic metaphor structures found in the artist's more introspective work
