[from "Cadillac Records" soundtrack]
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Ohh yeah yeah
At last
the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh yeah yeah
You smile, you smile
oh And then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last
Back Up lyrics - beyonce knowles
[Chorus]
When you see that girl comin, back up.
She ain't yo average chick, back up.
This is for the, the, the club.
And this is for the people on the, the, the block.
[repeat]
[Bridge]
She ain't the average chick, she the baddest chick.
[repeat]
[Verse 1]
E-e-everybody know that face.
Even with her head low, they still know that shape.
When she come through the club people take they place.
Chicks throwin handcuffs
'cause they knowin they man ain't safe.
[Hook]
'cause she the one switchin up flows.
If its 4 door, 2 gotta go.
Chicks like, 'what kinda jeans is those?'
And fellas watchin like, 'please get low.'
[Chorus]
When you see that girl comin, back up.
She ain't yo average chick, back up.
This is for the, the, the club.
And this is for the people on the, the, the block.
[repeat]
[Bridge]
She ain't the average chick, she the baddest chick.
[repeat]
[Verse 2]
E-e-everybody cant do this.
Some ain't gotta clue til they hear me spit.
Ah chu I spew 'cause yo girl is sick.
Is it the change or the hips you cant tell, but you know its thick.
[Hook]
'cause she the one switchin up flows.
If its 4 door, 2 gotta go.
Chicks like, 'what kinda jeans is those?'
And fellas watchin like, 'please get low.'

This is for the, the, the club.
And this is for the people on the, the, the block.
[repeat]
[Bridge]
She ain't the average chick, she the baddest chick.
[repeat]
For this type of girl its not that hard.
You see her 'cause she's too far gone.
They only prayin, pray for her downfall.
Why they gotta be so envious?
Doin what it do fit to be a plus.
Hey [repeat 7x]
Back up [repeat 2x]

When you see that girl comin, back up.
She ain't yo average chick, back up.

Cards Never Lie lyrics - beyonce knowles (feat. Wyclef Jean, Rah Digga)
[from "MTV's Hip Hopera: Carmen" soundtrack]
[Beyonce] - The cards never lie, my last breath a sigh
and now I think about if it's my time to die
I don't know what I was thinking, steady wasting time with Hill
and I need to live my life because my time is unforgiven
I can't understand how my life changed around
Manifest my destiny, is it the brown of the ground?
Blue skies are turning gray it's the point of indecision
Believing in the cards
You might start
Returning to your vision
[Wyclef] - Oh Girlfriend, get your mind on line
Don't spend your time cause you can't waste your time
Everyday like it's your last, But you must fear divine
Intervention comes and snatch up all your dreams from behind
Love!
You feel it and you got to let them know it
Love!
Your heart and that's the feeling that you go with
If you have a dream you need to go and let them know it
Cause you could wake up in the morning and it could be over
[Beyonce] - No, No, No, No
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna go
Just, Just, Just let me stay home
Let me live my dream, let me see another dawn
No, No, No, No
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna go
Just, Just, Just let me stay home
Let me live my dream, let me see another dawn
[Rah Digga] - Carmen, don't listen cause the cards have deceit
Just slide him the money, we don't need a receipt
Truth only exists within the eyes of the beholder
Plus he's kind of young for fortune telling
and probably should be older
[Wyclef] - But the cards never lie, I thought I told you
Now it's her time to try, to reach her goals before she reaches the light
[Beyonce] - This is love
It's like I'm trying to throw my life away
Sometimes love is all you got and other times it makes you pay
[Wyclef] - But when you finally rise
Then you'll realize
[Beyonce] - The windows to the soul are not the hips but the eyes
[Wyclef] - Oh You could wish on the stars but they dead, just a light
[Beyonce] - But they shine just as bright as they did their entire life
No, No, No, No
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna go
Just, Just, Just let me stay home
Just let me live my dreams, let me see another dawn
No, No, No, No
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna go
Just, Just, Just let me stay home
Just let me live my dreams, let me see another dawn
[Beyonce] - The cards never lie, my last breath a sigh
and now I think about if it's my time to die
I don't know what I was thinking, steady wasting time with Hill

Blue skies are turning gray it's the point of indecision

Control lyrics - beyonce knowles
I gotta give up to quiet
The storm that rages inside
The way that I hid my damage pride
You gave me away
And I've had enough
I imagine the words I say to you
I'm finding strength to follow it through
I'm ready to change
[Chorus:]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control [x8]
I'm opening up
Show me a sign I can't relieve
These crazy emotions flow through me
I'm gonna explode
You take me away
And what is my ordinary life
I won't be afraid of what we might find a love I can hold
[Chorus:]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control
Nothing ventured nothing gained
New horizon ready to paint
With every breath you take me away
[Chorus:]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control [x8]
The storm that rages inside
The way that I hid my damage pride
You gave me away
And I've had enough
I imagine the words I say to you
I'm finding strength to follow it through

I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends

Ego (Remix) lyrics - Beyonce Knowles (feat. Kanye West)
[Kanye]
I got a big ego, (hahaha)
I’m such a big ego, (hahaha)
I got a big, (hahaha), Ego,
She love my big, (hahaha), Ego,
So stroke my big, (hahaha), Ego,
I like to joke around a little bit but here we go,
Welcome to the wonderful world,
Of go play the earl coz,
Everything I throw up, blow up,
Talking to the girl,
She said, know what, grow up,
You nasty,
I don’t understand why they trippin’,
If you ask me,
Flow is just as nice as,
I admit the propane,
I just spit, probably,
Just raise the gas prices,
Everybody in the club,
Try and get as fresh as me,
What you want dog,
Trying to stay recession free,
And spit, refreshly,
When I rock the stadium,
You probably get sweaty,
You should bring a extra tee,
Now I’m standing next to Jay,
Who standing next to B,
You coulda been anywhere in the world,
But you’re here with me,
That’s good for ego,
Me and my ego,
And it go wherever we go,
My ego is my imaginary friend,
He was with me when I was only imagining,
I had dreams of the league,
One day I play Kobe,
I walk up the puff and he already know me,
Coulda let the dream killers, kill my self esteem,
Or use the arrogance as a steam that power my dreams,
And my ego,
[Beyonce]
It's on baby, let's get lost,
You don't need to call into work 'cause you're the boss,
For real, want you to show me how you feel,
I consider myself lucky, that's a big deal,
Why? Well, you got the key to my heart,
But you ain't gonna need it, I'd rather you open up my body,
And show me secrets, you didn't know was inside,
No need for me to lie,
It's too big, it's too wide,
It's too strong, it won't fit,
It's too much, it's too tough,
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up,
He got a big ego, such a huge ego,
I love his big ego, it's too much,
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up,
Usually I'm humble, right now I don't choose,
You can leave with me or you could have the blues,
Some call it arrogant, I call it confident,
You decide when you find on what I'm working with,
Damn I know I'm killing you with them legs,
Better yet them thighs,
Matter a fact it's my smile or maybe my eyes,
Boy you a site to see, kind of something like me,
It's too big, it's too wide,
It's too strong, it won't fit,
It's too much, it's too tough,
I talk like this 'cause I can back it up,
I got a big ego, such a huge ego,
But he love my big ego, it's too much,
I walk like this 'cause I can back it up,
I, I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
I, I talk like this 'cause I can back it up
I, I can back it up, I can back it up
I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
It's too big, it's too wide,
It's too strong, it won't fit,
It's too much, it's too tough,
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up,
He got a big ego, such a huge ego,
I love his big ego, it's too much,
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up,
Ego so big, you must admit,
I got every reason to feel like I'm that bitch,
Ego so strong, if you ain't know,
I don't need no beat, I can sing it with piano.

God Bless The U.S.A. lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
With just my family by my side,
I'd thank my lucky stars
To be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
And who gave that right to me,
I'm gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
To New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart
And it's time to make a change
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
And who gave that right to me,
I'm gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
And who gave that right to me,
I'm gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
With just my family by my side,
I'd thank my lucky stars
To be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
And who gave that right to me,
I'm gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston

Halo lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[from "Hope For Haiti Now" compilation]
Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Halo, ooh ooooooooooooooh....
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Halo, ooh ooooooooooooooh....
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
I can feel your halo (halo, halo)
I can see your halo (halo, halo)
Halo, ooh ooh.....
Have Your Way lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[from "His Woman, His Wife" soundtrack]
[Kelly:]
I changed my life for you and all that you could do
Is betray me, how could you play me
You got me doing things I know I shouldn't do
Am I crazy to live this way see
I know I'm wrong, I'm shamed everyday
We're not as one, but you think it's okay
My life is not meant to be lived this way, this way
You promised me one day we would be
Husband and wife but it seems to me
You're moving further away from me, from me
[Chorus:]
Lord I'm trying to do what's pleasing in your sight
But I'm in love, right now I'm caught up
Instead of leaving, I know that you'll be right by my side
And you'll make a way, just have your way
[Beyonce:]
I spent too much time playin wife on many nights
Keepin you happy, giving you all of me
I wake up every morning feeling guilty cause you're lying next to me
Father forgive me, thought by now we'd be married
Four months ago you promised me
By now I'd have my wedding ring
You've shown no committment to me, to me
I cannot blame you for using me
If I continue to let this be
Cause shacking with a man just ain't me, ain't me
[Chorus (4x)]
Lord I'm trying to do what's pleasing in your sight
But I'm in love, right now I'm caught up
Instead of leaving, I know that you'll be right by my side
And you'll make a way, just have your way
[Kelly:]

I Can't Take No More lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[Verse 1:]
It's really been weighing on me
Tell me what did I do
To have ya'll hating on me
When I don't have nothing to prove
Sometimes I shake my head
When I'm laying down in my bed
Thinking 'bout the things been said
When you really don't know me yet
[Pre-Chorus:]
Gotta clear up some things
There have been many things said about me
So many opinions, so many judgements, preconceived
It's out my character for me to feed into ya,
give it a rest
You must admire me spend so much time on me
consuming yo head
[Chorus:]
I can't take no more
(I think its time for me to let it all out)
I can't take no more
(Why my name always up in yo mouth)
What you hate me for
(I'm so tired of all of these lies)
I can't take no more (hey), no more (no more), no more
[Verse 2:]
It's really been weighing on me
I'm not myself lately
I feel a little incomplete
But I'm not gone lose no sleep
I keep it all in my mind
Cause it gotta get better in time
Why don't you live your life
And let me live mine
[Pre-Chorus:]
Gotta clear up some things,
There have been many things said about me (said about me)
So many opinions, so many judgements, preconceived (preconceived)

Just leave me alone, leave me alone.
I Care (Remix) lyrics - Beyonce Knowles (feat. David Jassy)
[David Jassy:]
Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
It does not demand its own way.
It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
[Beyonce:]
I told you how your hurt me, baby
But you don't care
Now I'm crying and deserted, baby
But you don't care
Ain't nobody tell me this is love
But you're immune to all my pain
I need you to tell me this is love
You don't care, well that's okay
Well, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, la la la la la, la la la la la la
Oh, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, la la la la la, la la la la la la
Ever since you knew your power
You made me cry
And now everytime our love goes sour
You won't sympathize
You see these tears falling down to my ears
I swear you like when I'm in pain
I try to tell you all my fears
You still don't care? That's okay
Well, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, la la la la la, la la la la la la
Oh, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, la la la la la, la la la la la la
Boy, maybe if you cared enough
I wouldn't have to care so much
What happened to our trust?
Now you've just given up
You used to be so in love
Now you don't care no more
[David Jassy:]
Is it really love or is it just an illusion, or maybe you just going through a phase of confusion,
baby i still care even though you showing me the opposite,
I stay on top of it avoid the topic of apocalypse,
I've been monogamous locked in like shellfish,
while you've been acting like a fisherwoman...sell fish,
uh you're so immune to my pain,
either that or you just playing the game
Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
It does not demand its own way.
It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
[Beyonce:]

I'm Alone Now lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
It really hurts to say this yes it does
But after a while sweet love just ain't enough
So many settle for less just because
Maybe I'm more in love with what it was
But what's gets so confusing baby
You and me
It's been so much confusion lately
You couldn't see that you were losing me
Well I'm alone now but I ain't lonely
I'm on my own now
But I ain't the only
Honestly I'm fine
I'll take this time to concentrate on me
And I got possibility to keep me company
Won't you just assume he doesn't care
To internalize it all isn't fare
So I address the problem so that he's aware
But I still feel all alone even when he's there
Maybe we can fix it baby
I know we can
If I make you miss it baby
Then maybe you will understand
That I'm alone now but I ain't lonely
I'm on my own now
But I ain't the only
Honestly I'm fine
I'll take this time to concentrate on me
And I got possibility to keep me company
la la la la la la la la laaa
la la la la la la la la laaa
la la la la la la la la laaa
la la la la la la la la laaa
Well I'm alone now but I ain't lonely
I'm on my own now
But I ain't the only
Honestly I'm fine
I'll take this time to concentrate on me
And I got possibility to keep me company
But after a while sweet love just ain't enough
So many settle for less just because
Maybe I'm more in love with what it was
But what's gets so confusing baby
You and me
It's been so much confusion lately
You couldn't see that you were losing me
Well I'm alone now but I ain't lonely

I'm Leaving lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[Chorus:]
When I first met you, you told me exactly how it would be
You had a lady and couldn't spend all your time with me
I only wanted to kick it, so I said 'cool, you can keep her'
Long as you satisfy me
But as the weeks went by I, I started feelin' strange
Somethin' was deep in my heart, somethin' I can't explain
I think I'm fallin' in love with you boy
I'm needing you so much, I'm cryin' just to feel your touch
I gotta leave you
[verse 1]
I didn't want no man
I didn't wanna fall in love, and
I didn't care about your girl
I didn't care how we would end up
But that was then, this is now
I think I'm experiencing love
I don't wanna wreck up your home
That's why I'm convinced, I gotta go
[Chorus]
Everytime she calls, you expect
Me to disappear like we never met
At first I didn't mind, but now I
Sometimes feel like you're all mine
You told me it was all about me, me
It's not about me if your still with her
Now I've realized that I've gotta move on
It might be hard, but I,
I gotta move on
[Chorus]
I gotta leave you (gotta leave you)
I gotta leave you (gotta leave you)
[repeat to fade]
When I first met you, you told me exactly how it would be
You had a lady and couldn't spend all your time with me
I only wanted to kick it, so I said 'cool, you can keep her'
Long as you satisfy me
But as the weeks went by I, I started feelin' strange
Somethin' was deep in my heart, somethin' I can't explain
I think I'm fallin' in love with you boy
I'm needing you so much, I'm cryin' just to feel your touch
I gotta leave you
[verse 1]
I didn't want no man
I didn't wanna fall in love, and
I didn't care about your girl

Ice Cream Truck lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[Verse 1:]
Alright, Alright
Feel like I'm losing me mind
Love is so hard to find
You led me on to believe
You belonged to me, oh
And always through difficult times
I always thought you were mine
Love doesn't feel like this
This is my final wish
[Bridge 1:]
The next time your truck rolls by
No matter how hard I cry
Please don't stop in front of me
Cause your love's no longer sweet
The next time I bring you change
Baby please pull back your hand
You know you're not what I need
Let me go, let me do Bey
[Chorus:]
You've got me chasing after you
Like an ice cream truck
I try my luck and catch up but
It's always outta love
And my heart just melts
[x2]
[Verse 2:]
Hey
Faster and faster I ran
You sped up and then
Just as I thought I caught up
I'm chasing you again, finally
You stopped and I jumped on
I realized your flavor was wrong
You thought I was still holding on
Looked and I was gone
[Bridge 2:]
The next time you drop on by
No matter hard I cry
Please don't stop in front of me
Cause your love's no longer sweet
The next time I bring you change
Baby please pull back your hand
You know you're not what I need
Let me go, let me do Bey
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
You got me chasing you
I try my luck, I can't catch up
Cause you got me chasing you
My heart's melting, it's like ice cream
[x2]
[Bridge 3: Over chorus]
I've been chasing after you
Now it's time to let you go
Yes I tried time and time again
But you don't love me, it's go to end
I tried so hard, damn near lost my mind
Cause real love is hard to find
Now my heart can't take no more
Now I know boy you ain't mine
No, no, no, no, no, no
[Chorus]
Alright, Alright
Feel like I'm losing me mind
Love is so hard to find
You led me on to believe
You belonged to me, oh
And always through difficult times
I always thought you were mine
Love doesn't feel like this
This is my final wish
[Bridge 1:]
The next time your truck rolls by
No matter how hard I cry
Please don't stop in front of me
Cause your love's no longer sweet
The next time I bring you change
Baby please pull back your hand
You know you're not what I need
Let me go, let me do Bey
[Chorus:]
You've got me chasing after you
Like an ice cream truck

It's always outta love
And my heart just melts

My heart's melting, it's like ice cream
[x2]
[Bridge 3: Over chorus]
I've been chasing after you
Now it's time to let you go
Yes I tried time and time again
But you don't love me, it's go to end
I tried so hard, damn near lost my mind
Cause real love is hard to find
Now my heart can't take no more
Now I know boy you ain't mine
No, no, no, no, no, no
[Chorus]
If I Were A Boy (Remix) lyrics - Beyonce Knowles (feat. R. Kelly)
[Beyonce:]
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted, and I'd never get confronted for it
Cause they'd stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
[R. Kelly:]
If you were a boy
Then, girl, you'd understand
You need to stop listenin' to your friends
Love, respect, and trust your man
So I go to clubs with the guys
And sometimes flirt with the girls
I should be able to roll out, as long as I'm comin' home to you
And give you the world
But you're not a boy
So you don't have a clue
How I work and pay the bills
How everything I do is for you
[Beyonce:]
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
[Beyonce (R. Kelly):]
If I were a boy (If I were a girl)
I would turn off my phone (I wouldn't play games)
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone (Girl you know that's wrong)
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
[R. Kelly:]
But you're not a boy
So you can't understand
You are not a perfect woman
And I am not a perfect man
[Beyonce:]
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts (And I know how you feel)
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed (Said I'm sorry)
[Beyonce:]
It's a little too late for you to come back
[R. Kelly:]
But I can't let you go, 'cause I'm too attached
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
But you're just a boy...
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted, and I'd never get confronted for it
Cause they'd stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
[R. Kelly:]
If you were a boy
Then, girl, you'd understand
You need to stop listenin' to your friends
Love, respect, and trust your man
So I go to clubs with the guys
And sometimes flirt with the girls
I should be able to roll out, as long as I'm comin' home to you
And give you the world
But you're not a boy
So you don't have a clue
How I work and pay the bills
How everything I do is for you
[Beyonce:]
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
[Beyonce (R. Kelly):]
If I were a boy (If I were a girl)
I would turn off my phone (I wouldn't play games)
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone (Girl you know that's wrong)
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
[R. Kelly:]
But you're not a boy
So you can't understand
You are not a perfect woman
And I am not a perfect man
[Beyonce:]
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts (And I know how you feel)
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed (Said I'm sorry)
[Beyonce:]
It's a little too late for you to come back
[R. Kelly:]
But I can't let you go, 'cause I'm too attached
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
But you're just a boy...
If Looks Could Kill (You Would Be Dead) lyrics - beyonce knowles
[from "MTV's Hip Hopera: Carmen" soundtrack]
[Beyonce]
Sweetness flowing like a faucet
Body bangin' no corset
Brothas wanna toss it
But they lost, cause my game made them forfeit
Slicker than a porpoise and thicker than a horse is
Carmen Brown got the whole town speechless
I'll stick to my thesis, eyes stick to my features
Brothas trying to hold, but thier game never reaches
Most of these cats are like the middle of peaches
I see you looking at, but what you looking at?
You're in a bar and wanna twist me like a bottle cap?
[Mos Def]
I'm trying to holla Miss, to see if you gon holla back
[Beyonce]
Your game is whack, and no, you will not get your quarter back
See this is Carmen, curves like a cul-de-sac
skin coffee and cream, your donuts, you ain't dunking that
[Mos Def]
But this is Miller, Lieutenant, if you're wondering
[Sarpong]
And I'm Nathanile
[Mos Def]
Mel Gibson
[Sarpong]
Danny Gloverin'
[Beyonce]
But I'm not hearing you, you might as well be mumbling
See, I have dreams, and with a man, what will become of them?
There's not a kid out here who can make me believe
I should postpone my goals, he got tricks up his sleeve?
Whole bar full of cuffs and you ain't locking me down
[Mos Def]
I got a warrant for ya heart, in the bed, hold the trial
[Sarpong]
Get a pardon if you come with the Sergeant, now
[Beyonce]
Give me a chair, cause I don't care, I ain't feeling your style
[Chorus]
[Mos Def] - Ayo, I'm trying to get with you shorty
[Beyonce] - But I'm not feeling you
[Sarpong] - But I'm an officer shorty
[Beyonce] - My looks are killing you
[Mos Def] - Murder One will get you under the covers
[Beyonce] - Game taller, manslaughter, I ain't feeling you brothas
[Mos Def] - Ayo, I'm trying to get with you shorty
[Beyonce] - But I'm not feeling you
[Sarpong] - But I'm an officer shorty
[Beyonce] - My looks are killing you
[Mos Def] - Murder One will get you under the covers
[Beyonce] - Game taller, manslaughter, I ain't feeling you brothas
[Beyonce]
Eyes like the ocean
[Mos Def]
Ma, I got some lotion
Hold ya thighs, raise 'em high and daddy long stroke you
[Beyonce]
Hair like forever
[Sarpong]
Swear I do it better
Take my gun out the holster, I still got the Barretta
[Beyonce]
Brothas sweat Carmen like Patrick Ewing, but that cat...
[Mos Def]
Don't waste your time, he ain't worth doing, he's just a Sergeant
Passing out tickets for parking
[Sarpong]
Chicken-heads clucking
[Beyonce]
Pitiful bulls barking
See, this is Carmen, voice sweet as marvin
I turn out lights, with the switch, when I'm walking
Girls steady jealous, cause they men always hawkin'
Even got Lou lookin' at me like he stalkin'
And I got a mind, too
I wouldn't bless you,
if your first name was hachoo on Sunday, singin' gospel
[Mos Def]
You ain't a dyme, just a nickel actin' hostile
[Beyonce]
I'm headed for the big top and bouncin' on this side-show...
[Beyonce]
Sweetness flowing like a faucet
Body bangin' no corset
Brothas wanna toss it
But they lost, cause my game made them forfeit
Slicker than a porpoise and thicker than a horse is
Carmen Brown got the whole town speechless
I'll stick to my thesis, eyes stick to my features

In Da Club lyrics - Beyonce Knowles
[Originally by 50 Cent]
No shorty, it's Beyonce,
We gonna' party like, it's ya birthday,
We gettin' naughty like, it's ya birthday
So put ya drink up in the air if you look sexy!
I'm the chick with the hot ish, manolo blahnik,
Jimmy choo kicks, killin' it, who you with?
Me & my girls at the party with the diamonds and ice
I'm that classy mami with the Marilyn Monroe body.
I'm that fly chick 5*6 Marc Jacob mini
Ghetto fabulous, glamorous, its effortless
Make up light, we with my pastel Louis
Designer scarf, work of art, rockin' vintage Gucci
You can find me in the club, sippin' on some bub,
Daddy I got what you need you's a sexy little thug,
Don't wanna be your girl I ain't lookin for no love,
So come give me a hug, sexy little thug.
You can find me in the club, sippin' on some bub,
Daddy I got what you need you's a sexy little thug,
Don't wanna be your girl I ain't lookin for no love,
So come give me a hug, sexy little thug.
My nails my hair my diamond rings,
Shining with all my fancy things,
My crib my car my clothes my jewels,
Why you mad? Cause I came up and I ain't changed.
I'm that girl wearing Chanel pearls,
Chandeliers in my ears from Bailey Banks and Biddle
Ya feeling my style, ya feeling my flow
Hair sheek, smells sweet, like coco de fleur?
I'm the lady sipping baileys while I strut like a model
If the ladies wanna hate me I just send them a bottle
I know I got it but don't flaunt it even though brothers want it,
Dancin' dirty while I'm flirting, 'cause he' checkin' up on me.
You can find me in the club, sippin' on some bub,
Daddy I got what you need you's a sexy little thug,
Don't wanna be your girl I ain't lookin for no love,
So come give me a hug, sexy little thug.
You can find me in the club, sippin' on some bub,

In This World lyrics - beyonce knowles
In this world
Of ordinary people
Extraordinary people
I'm so glad there is you
In this world
Of all the rated pleasures
Of underrated treasures
I'm so glad there is you
I live to love
I love to live with you beside me
This world so new
I'll walk you through with you to guide me
In this world
Where many people play at love
But hardly ever stay in
I'm so glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you
Of ordinary people
Extraordinary people
I'm so glad there is you
In this world
Of all the rated pleasures
Of underrated treasures
I'm so glad there is you
I live to love
I love to live with you beside me
This world so new
I'll walk you through with you to guide me
In this world
Where many people play at love
But hardly ever stay in
I'm so glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you
Irreplaceable (Remix) lyrics - Beyonce Knowles (feat. Ghostface Killah)
[Hook: Beyonce]
To the left
To the left
To the left
To the left
To the left
To the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
In the closet that's my stuff yes
If I bought it nigga please don't touch
And keep talking that mess, that's fine
But could you walk and talk at the same time
And It's my mine name that is on that Jag
So remove your bags let me call you a cab
[Beyonce]
Standing in the front yard telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking bout
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
[Chorus: Beyonce]
You must not know bout me
You must not know bout me
I could have another you in a minute
matter fact he'll be here in a minute baby
You must not know bout me
You must not know bout me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinking you're irreplaceable
[Beyonce]
So go ahead and get gone
And call up on that chick and see if she is home
Oops, I bet ya thought that I didn't know
What did you think I was putting you out for?
Cause you was untrue
Rolling her around in the car that I bought you
Baby you dropped them keys hurry up before your taxi leaves
Standing in the front yard telling me
How I am such a fool, talking about
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
[Chorus]
[Ghostface Killah]
Ayo love you need to calm down over something small
Word, you had to flip, that girl ain't mine
She a custie, word life, she love my ...
I know Keanu told worse, she saw us both in the whip
Not mine in the business, ugly self with a flat ...
I know that's your friend, but you first need a man
And regardless to what I do
I'ma stay on my grind, bust my heat and make sure there's food
When we can't stand the rain in the rolex now
And we feeling like a shell jammed up in a barrel
All we gotta do is talk this out
Now you tell me who that man that got ... who set foot in this house
Girl you must not know bout me
That shiny thang in the room gon pluck a tree
And don't make this the reason I ain't touch you in eight days
I thought you was on your friend, thanks, he was leaving you mad late
You pulling out your hair, you scratch my face
Rip my rhyme book's wilding, and you trashed the place
This is unjustifiable
I'ma do these dishes and wash my ... cus I ain't gotta lie to you
[Beyonce]
So since I'm not your everything
How about I'll be nothing
Nothing at all to you
Baby I wont shead a tear for you
I won't lose a wink of sleep
Cause the truth of the matter is
Replacing you is so easy
[Hook]
[Chorus 2X]
To the left
To the left
To the left
To the left
To the left

Everything you own in the box to the left
