[Chorus: Keith Sweat]
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
[Verse 2: LL Cool J & (LeShaun)]
Kitty✦ kat ain't nothin'✦ but skin and bones✦
You could flip it, lick it, or leave it alone✦
You could grip, trick it, to each his own
(I'll make your manhood shine like chrome)
What? You could work me out
(I told you my ex-man✦ turned✦ me out, held me 'til I melt it down)
Pound for pound I could freal 'em out
Lover✦ zone
(Unplug the phone)
You wild when your mama✦ not home
(Stop, I'll shut you down, round and round, round and round)
Work it out now, c'mon, here's✦ your reward✦
All aboard!✦
Word up, you can't get up, I'll leave your black cherry✦ all split up, uh
[Chorus: Keith Sweat]
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
[Verse 3: LL Cool J & (LeShaun)]
(Ooh all that drama✦ sound real good, love to ride you)
Wish you would
(Yeah, but you won't call me back
Man can't take it when it's squeezed like that
I bite back, re-mat,✦ strike that, a real live player won't do me like that)
True, what if I strip for you, dance on the bed while you under✦ my leg
Would you suck your fingers, start to beg, or would you crawl like a tiger✦
And give me some head
Either✦ way you can have it your way
(Four play all day)
A.K.A.✦ John Mickens, so I won't be trickin'
(We doin' it, and doin' it, and doin' it well
But you ain't gettin'✦ shit 'til I hear weddin'✦ bells)
[Chorus: Keith Sweat]
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you
Nobody✦ can freak me like you

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

LL Cool J utilizes rhythmic pocket-stuffing and high-density end-rhymes to maintain momentum, relying on 1995-era sexual bravado rather than dense lyrical abstraction.

Rhyme Architecture: Predominantly AAAA mono-rhyme structure with heavy reliance on terminal 'o-n' and 'o-w' sounds, punctuated by rapid-fire internal slant rhymes to sustain the flow.
Verified Doubles & Entendres

"You could flip it, lick it, or leave it alone"

① Physical act of engaging in sexual relations with a partner② Metaphorical dismissal of a situation or person

"I'll make your manhood shine like chrome"

① Literal description of cleanliness and physical arousal② A display of status or 'flashing' value through physical perfection

Excellent rhythmic placement on the pocket

High level of energy and dynamic contrast through vocal interplay with LeShaun

Consistent use of terminal assonance to anchor the flow

Lyrical content leans heavily on generic tropes of the era

Limited metaphorical depth outside of literal sexual descriptions

Wordplay is primarily phonetic rather than conceptual
