What's with these homies dissin' my girl
Why do they gotta front
What did we ever do to these guys
That made them so violent

Ooh ooh, but you know I'm yours
Ooh ooh, and you know you're mine
Ooh ooh, and that's for all of time

Ooh wee ooh, I look just like Buddy Holly
Uh oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway,
I don't care about that


Don't you ever fear, I'm always near
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian

Ooh ooh, and you know I'm yours
Ooh ooh, and you know you're mine
Ooh ooh, and that's for all of time

Ooh wee ooh, I look just like Buddy Holly
Uh oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway,
I don't care about that
I don't care about that

Bang! Bang! Knock on the door
Another big bang, get down on the floor
Oh no! What do we do?
Don't look now but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's the matter babe are you feelin' sick?
Whats-a-matter, whats-a-matter, whats-a-matter, you
Whats-a-matter, babe are you feelin' blue?

Oh
and that’s for all of time (that’s for all of time)

Ooh wee ooh, I look just like Buddy Holly
Uh oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway,
I don't care about that
I don't care about that
I don't care about that
I don't care about that
