[Intro]
Hey yo, R
Let me handle my business
I just wanna take over the show for a minute
Not the whole show, just a little bit

[Verse 1]
Now that he's outta the way
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Can I break it down and break you off
Some of this computer lovin' type of shit?
Lookin' at you from the inside of this internet
I'm in the mood, and my tongue is in the mood
Ladies, can we have a little fun?
Can we play a little game?
Said, can we have a little fun?
Can we play a little game?

[Interlude]
I got something for y'all
Can I give it to you?

[Chorus]
Now listen, second Kelly what you got for me, y'all say
I got some down low, down low, sing it for me
Now second Kelly, what you got for me, y'all say
I got some 12 play, 12 play, sing it
Now 2nd Kelly, what you got for me, sing
I got some bump and grind, bump and grind, sing it y'all
Now second Kelly, what you got for me, say
Do you mind if I stroke you up
Do you mind if I stroke you down

[Interlude]
Ladies, ladies, tell me do you want more?
I said do you want more?
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na sing

[Verse 2]
Now y'all having fun?
Too bad it's time for me to get up out of here
But before I do
I wanna blow the roof off this place with this last one
Are y'all ready?
All right, now everybody let me hear you say
Ooh na na na na na na
Ooh na na na na na na
Yeah, now, that was loud, right?
But I think y'all can get a little louder
If y'all what Kelly to come back out here
With what he about to get dressed in
Y'all do it louder come on here we go, come on
Ooh na na na na an na what
Ooh na na na na na na

[Outro]
I know y'all must be trippin' on me
Damn
I wanna go half on a baby

Robert Kelly is a Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, where he first started performing under the “L” subway tracks as a teenager. This led into his first album, Born Into the 90’s, being released in 1992 as a collaboration between R. Kelly and Public Announcement. R. Kelly wrote and produced the entire album, which contained the #1 R&B hits “Honey Love” and “Slow Dance,” along with the Top 10 R&B hits “She’s Got That Vibe” (#7) and “Dedicated” (#9). The following year, Kelly went on to become a solo act.

In 1993, he released his first solo album, 12 Play, featuring the hits “Bump N' Grind” and “Your Body’s Callin'.” He released a self-titled album in 1995 featuring the hits “Down Low (Nobody Has To Know)” and “You Remind Me of Something,” while his 1998 double album, R., featured a string of hits, including “I Am Your Angel” with Celine Dion, “When a Woman’s Fed Up,” and his Grammy Award-winning song “I Believe I Can Fly” from the Space Jam soundtrack.

The success of these albums led to him becoming an in-demand producer in the ‘90s, writing and producing #1 hits for Aaliyah (“Back & Forth”), Janet Jackson (“Any Time, Any Place (Remix)”), Changing Faces (“G.H.E.T.T.O.U.T”), Maxwell (“Fortunate”), and Michael Jackson (“You Are Not Alone”).
