Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Aye-yo Mo', open up the door
Man, I'm sorry, baby
Open up the door, you got these dogs out here
They about to bite me, poodles and, and rabbits, and all them
Open up the door, man, I'm sorry, man
I love you
[Verse 2]
It's funny how the tables turn
Turn
Turn
Turn
[Verse 3]
And it's so (Woo)
This that hot (Woo)
Uh-huh, yeah
New Monica
[Verse 4]
It's funny how the tables turn
Now it's you runnin' after me
Didn't wanna spend quality time
Didn't think I would ever leave
You got way too comfortable
Now, you say you want me in your life
'Cause I packed up all my ****
I'm movin' in my new place tonight
[Verse 5]
So don't you come (Knock, knock, knock)
Stop knockin'
Don't come knockin' at my door (Stop knockin', yeah)
(Oh yeah, yeah) Ring, ring, ring
Let the phone stop
I don't want you callin' me no more
[Verse 6]
Uh-huh, so
[Verse 7]
Boy, it's a dangerous game
To try and play a chick like me
Wanna go out and do your thang
I'll be out for ya, count to three
So do just what you want
Anytime that you really like
I put a payment on my place
You'll be sleepin' alone tonight
[Verse 8]
So don't you come knockin' (Knock, knock, knock)
Stop knockin'
Don't come knockin' at my door (Don't you come knockin' at whoa-ah)
Ring, ring, ring
Let the phone stop (Ring)
(Oh, yeah) I don't want you callin' me no more
[Verse 9]
Uh-huh, so
[Verse 10]
I used to be so gone
You were someone I could lean on
My life support system
And I thought I couldn't breathe, ah, ah
When you used to leave, yup, yup
I see you put your clean on
Big chains, gold teeth, and your gleam on
All night, wanna be gone
Wanna tell me stay home like I got a, uh, ring on
Now you say I'm not your wife, right, right
So why should I be chillin', goodnight, goodnight
Now pack up my things for a flight
I got a place and it's fixed up nice (C'mon)
So don't come knockin' at my door (Yeah)
I got company comin' around four (Yeah)
[Verse 11]
So, whoa (Oh)
[Verse 12]
I don't want you callin' me no more
Knock, knock, knock
Stop knockin'
Don't come knockin' at my door
Ring, ring, ring (Ring, ring, ring)
Let the phone stop (Please, won't stop)
I don't want you callin' me no more (Don't come knockin' at my door)
(So) Don't come knockin' at my door
[Verse 13]
Don't come knockin' at my door
[Verse 14]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 15]
(Don't come knockin' at my door) Changed my locks
Took my things (Don't come knockin' at my door)
Can't come in, whoa (No)
Changed my locks
Took my things (Don't come knockin' at my door)
Can't come in, whoa
I don't want you callin' me no more
[Verse 16]
Hey, this Monica, leave a number after the beep
Aye-yo Mo', pick up the phone, man
This old raggedy cellular phone sound like an old alarm clock, old switchboard line phone
Do you even have call waitin' on this joint, man?
Call me back, ya late for the studio, dismissed
