Everyday (Smoothed Over Remix)

Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)

Off the top, niggas see me and wanna serve
Just thinking about what they need, ain't that some nerve?
Now looky here, twenty-four hours, seven whole days
I demand my respect, I demand my praise, uh
Everyday that I wake
I gotta have everything done with no mistakes
I take it incredibly slow so don't try to rush me, no means no
I never said a no that meant yes
Other women get taken for granted, I guess
I got a wish list that must be fulfilled
And you gets none until I get my toes sucked
And my eyebrows plucked
I need my car waxed and my floors shellacked
I need my back rubbed and the bubbles in the tub
To float me to the bed so that we can make love

Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)
Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)

It ain't much to ask for when I come off tour
To have my truck washed or my body massaged
Or the bills paid and sent home all my dough
And you being my man, it just ain't for show
All the lovey-dovey, yeah that is sweet
But honey bunny, you got to earn your keep
But don't sleep, 'cause I need a lot of shit done
And my motto is work before fun
So get started, call me cold-hearted
Yeah, check it out, whatever is clever
Or get to steppin' if you know something better
If not, then respect what you got
Meanwhile, I got a new ride at the lot
Pick it up and bring it back to the spot
This is how we do it now everyday
I need it done in a special way, baby
(Tell 'em how it goes)

Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)
Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)

On the real, I need a man that understands me
And realizes the reality, I'm in the MC industry
Which means I wanna live lovely
I got to make money, listen
So never ask me to give it less than what I got
If it's too hot, nigga, then raise up out my spot
It's my trade, I'm made up of the black ace of spades
Alone in the world but it's me you can't fade
It's my life, I do it my way
You don't like my way, then hit the highway
I'm special, and not because I'm MC Lyte
But because I'm a woman with the gift to bear life
It's done, yes, I've rested my case
Now run pick up my Dermalogica for my face
This is how it goes down everyday
I need it done in a special way, baby
(What you say now?)

Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)
Everyday, I need my ish done in a special way
Everyday
(What more can I say?)
Can you work with what I got non-stop?
Listen, can you work with it?
Can you work with it?
Can you work with it?
(What more can I say?)
