Stanley - Jazmine Sullivan
I'm in the kitchen making the dinner
that I know you like
And I've been cleaning this damn house
all day and all night
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner
Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care
how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful)
You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a good thing
I try to dress up and look like
something just to turn you on
I'm spending money I don't got
because you used to like my hair red
my nails done
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner
Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care
how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful)
You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a good thing
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care
how hard I try to make you smile
If you ain't careful
You gone lose a good thing
I try so hard to be good to you, Stanley
But why don't you care
and you take me for granted?
You know I love you but I'm getting tired
You might get burned
cause you're playing with fire (Fire)
All you do is go to the bar
Worrying 'bout that rusty car
Mess around you're gonna lose my heart
And another man is gonna do your part
