I could hear a melody as Mona sang a song
And bumped into a girl, her name was Mona -- what?
C -- Courageousso careless
Trim, slim, (yeah) and I'm also light skinned
Mona Lisa (what?) *singing* Mona Lisa, so men made you
She said, 'Great Scott! Are you a thief?
Walk on by walk on by
Well, it was one of those days -- not much to do
YouknowhatI'msayin? So I said, 'Excuse me, dear
Foolish pride
You know, like the picture?
Over eighteen and my eyes are green (uh-huh)
I wear more gold than that man on A-Team (uh-huh, uh-huh)
Please sit, and tell me a little about your past'
Sit down eat your slice of pizza, and be quiet'
The compliment showed she had a mind in her
RickyCan I kiss your hand?
Now come along, we have a party to attend
Ha-ha, hah! Had to find that funny
I've never been to college, but I've got crazy knowledge (uh-huh)
So I said, 'No child, I work hard for the money
To bow before his divine majesty
'If you see me walking down the street
SlickEnough
Quite polite like Walter Cronkite'
That we are here to present tonight
RickyOh your majesty
Well, just about then, Trevor my friend came in
Ricky(kisses his hand loudly)
I was chillin downtown, with my old school crew
SlickHmm?
I'm just kidding, but that's awfully nice of you'
To fight's not right that I recite and I'm
Y -- why not?
Put away your money
With some real mature women and some more of her friends'
I'll buy that slice!'
And as we were leavin and drivin along
A virgin?! Honey needed a slap
And calling me a thief? Please! Don't even try it (Right!)
RickyCome your highness they await you
That I wear everyday and
He grabbed me by my shirt and pulled me right out the store
'MC Ricky D,' but not to be so harsh I said to Mona Li-hee
She tried to disrespect WHO?! The Grand Wizard
Let me spell my name out for you, it's Ricky
He hailed down a cab and he waited for a minute
R -- Ravishing
Slick Rick, the Ruler! And MC Ricky D
She said, 'Thanks - I'd rather a slice of you
I went into a store -- to buy a slice of pizza
My gosh, you look nice
'I'm sorry and I know that's low class (uhh, yeah)
She said, 'Well I got courage, and I don't like porridge (uh-huh)
K -- for the Kangols which I've got
She tried to tell me she's a virgin -- with her yea wide gap
Me! 'Well what's your name, son?'
I -- Impress
When you said goodbye
He said, 'I don't want to see you playin with these lowlifes no more
The pain and the hurt that you gave me
She almost got cut short -- you know, scissors
Anyway, I'd like to take this time out
Seems like you have a mouth full of gold teeth'
He said, 'Hey Rick, don't you know playin with these snakes is a sin?!?'
Doing their smash hit, 'Mona Lisa,'
SlickMm-hmm
And I start to cry each time we meet
I said, 'It don't matter, see, I'm not picky (word)
Best believe Mona's a virgin'
And when I smiled (PING!) I almost blinded her
And as the cab came, he thrusted me in it
That's all that I have left, so, let me hide
