For one price, for one price, for one price

In the whole history of man, in the whole history of man,

in the whole history of man

All the people on this earth are joined by



(Skee-Lo)

I don't need your sympathy your misery is drivin me insane

You got your hands out but I refrain

From givin you a pound you bloody hound

You better take heed to cause I don't need you to hang around

Now you wasn't cool ever since back when I got jumped

You played the punk and ran a sprint

See one of us is trippin but I was just concerned

At the time I lost my wallet

and you found it stole my money then returned it

You used to claim in front of people we were next of kin

I never knew that you were sleepin with my girlfriend

And if I did I would've bashed you maybe thrashed you

I never asked you homie tell me is it true

Because I knew you were up to no good

Spreadin rumours on me in the neighbourhood

Yeah, so let me bring this to my point

We ain't friends, we ain't homies and we never shared a joint

So you ain't down



(Chorus)

(Skee-Lo)

(You ain't down)

I don't need your sympathy

your simple case of misery has caused me pain

(You ain't down with me no more)

Yeah, you ain't down

(You ain't down)

I don't need your misery

cause mamma said what goes around comes back again

(You ain't down with me no more)

(You ain't down)



(Skee-Lo)

I remember girls in college who was never ever

Among these beautiful women was my favourite name Venetta

Pain, love and agony she's all of the above

I keep thinkin to myself ";Oh I don't wanna fall in love";

But oh Venetta I read your letter

And it gets better as I read on down the lin
