Tightrope (feat. Janelle Monáe)

Tightrope - Havana Maestros/Janelle Monáe (加奈兒·夢奈)

Moná e and left foot

Whoaaa

Another day adabadee ni**a

I take your pain away

Some people talk about ya like they know all about ya

When you get down they doubt ya

And when you tip it on the scene yeah they talkin' bout it

Cause they can't tip on the scene

They just talk about it t-t-t-talk about it

When you get elevated

They love it or they hate it

You dance up on them haters

Keep getting funky on the scene

While they jumpin' round ya

They trying to take all of your dreams

But you can't allow it

Cause baby whether you're high or low

Whether you're high or low

You gotta tip on the tightrope tip tip on it

T-t-t-tip on the tightrope tip tip on it

Baby baby baby whether you're high or low high or low

Baby whether you're high or low high or low

You got to tip on the tightrope tip tip on it

Now let me see you do the tightrope tip tip on it

And I'm still tippin' on it

See I'm not walkin' on it

Or trying to run around it

This ain't no acrobatics

You either follow or you lead yeah

I'm talkin' bout ya

Keep on blaming the machine yeah

I'm talkin' bout it

T-t-t-talkin' bout it

I can't complain about it

I gotta keep my balance

And just keep dancing on it

We getting funky on the scene

Yeah you know about it

Like a star on the screen

Watch me tip all on it

Then baby whether I'm high or low high or low

Baby whether you're high or low high or low

You gotta tip on the tightrope tip tip on it

Baby baby baby

Whether you're high or low high or low

Baby whether you're high or low high or low

Tip on the tightrope tip tip on it

Baby let me see you tight rope tip tip on it

And I'm still tippin' on it

You gotta keep your balance

Or you fall into the gap

It's a challenge but I manage

Cause I'm cautious with the strap

Do damage to your cabbage that

A doctor cannot patch

Why you don't want no friction

Like the back of a MatchBook

Daddy fat sax will fold you

And your MacBook

Close shows shut you down

Before we go go backwards

Act up and whether we high or low

We gonna get back up

Like the dow jones and Nasdaq

Sorta like a thong in an a** crack

Come on

I tip on alligators and little rattlesnakes

But I'm another flavor

Something like a terminator

Ain't no equivocating

I fight for what I believe

Why you talkin' 'bout it

J-j-just talkin' 'bout it

Some callin' me a sinner

Some callin' me a winner

I'm callin' you to dinner

And you know exactly what I mean

Yeah I'm talking about you

You can rock or you can leave

Watch me tip without you

N-n-now whether I'm high or low

High or low

Whether I'm high or low

High or low

I'm gonna tip on the tightrope

Tip tip on it

Mmm

Baby baby baby

Whether I'm high or low

High or low

High or low

High or low

Tip tip on it

Now baby tip on the tightrope

You can't get too high

You can't get too high

I said you can't get too low

We can't get too low

Cause you get too high

You can't get too high

No you'll surely be low

No you'll surely be low

Ladies and gentlemen the funkiest horn section in metropolis
