[00:10.07]Army with harmony
[00:18.66]Dave drop a load on 'em
[00:20.12]
[00:30.47]OPP, how can I explain it
[00:31.67]I'll take you frame by frame it
[00:33.07]To have y'all jumpin' shall we singin' it
[00:34.54]O is for Other, P is for People scratchin' temple
[00:37.04]The last P...well...that's not that simple
[00:39.56]It's sorta like another way to call a cat a kitten
[00:42.04]It's five little letters that are missin' here
[00:44.86]You get on occassion at the other party
[00:46.83]As a game 'n it seems I gotta start to explainin'
[00:49.22]Bust it
[00:49.84]You ever had a girl and met her on a nice hello
[00:52.01]You get her name and number and then you feelin' real mellow
[00:54.31]You get home, wait a day, she's what you wanna know about
[00:56.78]Then you call up and it's her girlfriend or her cousin's house
[00:59.27]It's not a front, F to the R to the O to the N to the T
[01:01.88]It's just her boyfriend's at her house (Boy, that's what is scary)
[01:04.28]It's OPP, time other people's what you get it
[01:06.44]There's no room for relationship there's just room to hit it
[01:08.89]How many brothers out there know just what I'm gettin' at
[01:11.64]Who thinks it's wrong 'cos I'm splittin' and co-hittin' at
[01:13.94]Well if you do, that's OPP and you're not down with it
[01:16.47]But if you don't, here's your membership
[01:18.47]
[01:18.92]Chorus:
[01:19.35]You down with OPP (Yeah you know me)

[01:38.16]
[01:38.66]As for the ladies, OPP means something gifted
[01:40.89]The first two letters are the same but the last is something different
[01:43.37]It's the longest, loveliest, lean- I call it the leanest
[01:45.82]It's another five letter word rhymin' with cleanest and meanest
[01:48.21]I won't get into that, I'll do it...ah...sorta properly
[01:50.69]I say the last P...hmmm...stands for property
[01:53.32]Now lady here comes a kiss, blow a kiss back to me, now tell me exactly
[01:58.11]Have you ever known a brother who have another like ah girl or wife
[02:00.60]And you just had to stop and just 'cos he look just as nice
[02:03.06]You looked at him, he looked at you and you knew right away
[02:05.58]That he had someone but he was gonna be yours anyway
[02:07.95]You couldn't be seen with him and honestly you didn't care
[02:10.39]'Cos in a room behind a door no one but y'all are there
[02:12.87]When y'all are finish, y'all can leave and only y'all would know
[02:15.29]And then y'all could throw the skeleton bones right in the closet do'
[02:17.79]Now don't be shocked 'cos if you're down I want your hands up high
[02:20.21]Say OPP (OPP) I like to say with pride
[02:22.70]Now when you do it, do it well and make sure that it counts
[02:25.19]You're now down with a discount

[02:47.60]This girl ah tried to OPP me
[02:48.69]I had a girl and she knew that matter-of-fact my girl was partner's that
[02:52.14]Had a fall out, disagreement, yeah an argument
[02:54.66]She tried to do me so we did it in my apartment, bust it
[02:57.15]That wasn't the thing it must have been the way she hit the ceiling
[02:59.55]'Cos after that she kept on coming back and catchin' feelings
[03:02.00]I said, "Let's go my girl is coming so you gotta leave"
[03:04.49]She said, "Oh no, I love you Treach" I said, "Now child please"
[03:06.90]You gots to leave, come grab your coat, right now you gotta go
[03:09.29]I said now look you to the stairs and to the stairwindow
[03:11.78]This was a thing, a little thing, you shouldn't have put your heart
[03:14.22]'Cos you know I was OPP, hell from the very start
[03:16.68]Come on, come on, now let me tell you what it's all about
[03:19.17]When you get down, you can't go 'round runnin' off at the mouth
[03:21.56]That's rule number one in this OPP establishment
[03:24.45]You keep your mouth shut and it won't get back to her or him
[03:26.56]Exciting isn't it, a special kinda business
[03:28.80]Many of you will catch the same sorta OPP is you with
[03:31.42]Him or her for sure is going to admit it
[03:33.80]When OPP comes, damn-- skippy I'm with it
