[Verse 1]
Honey baby
You truly know it (You truly know it)
You look good
Tryin' your best to show it

If I were you, I would
True love and affection
These are nice (so nice)
But when a money man walks in the room, girl
You look more than twice

You look once
You look twice
Can I rap to you sugar tonight?

[Chrous]
Donald Trump: black version
Maybe that's what you need
A man that fulfills your every wish
Your every dream

Donald Trump: black version
Come on, take a chance
A 1990's love affair
The real romance

Honey baby
You are the finest (You are the finest)
I have seen (I have seen)
And your disposition's so kind, you're never mean

Girl, you're to good to be true
But last night when you were asleep
You slipped big time, I heard you
You said your favorite color was green
So guess what?

[Chrous]
Donald Trump: black version
Maybe that's what you need
A man that fulfills your every wish
Your every dream

Donald Trump: black version
Come on take a chance
A 1990's love affair
The real romance

[Spoken Interlude]
Now look here, baby
I ain't tryin' to be 90 proof
But a super strong woman
She needs a super strong dude

[Bridge]
Sweet words of love are helpful
But what goes a lot farther than that?
A hundred dollar dinner at Adriano's?
A brand new coat or a brand new hat?
Yes, I can do this

[Chrous]
Donald Trump: black version
Maybe that's what you need (Oh, come on to the man)
A man that fulfills your every wish
Your every dream

Donald Trump: black version
Come on take a chance
A 1990's love affair
The real romance

[Outro]
(Diamonds and pearls) I wanna buy you things
(Maybe that's what you need)
'Cause I want all the other girls to bug
(A man that fulfills your every wish) My name is Morris, baby
(Your every dream) And I dig you

And when I dig somebody
(Donald Trump: black version) They stay dug
(Come on take a chance) They stay dug, baby
(A 1990's love affair)
(The real romance)

I..., I..., I..., I got what you need baby
Come on, baby
Come on, take a chance

​The Time

The Time grew from the seeds of the Minneapolis music scene in the early 1980’s, galvanized by the creative drive and commercial success of rock-soul juggernaut Prince. The band began as the fruit of a wager Prince made with band leader Morris Day over the song “Partyup” (originally by a band called Enterprise). After the song’s success, Prince agreed to help Morris put together a band.

The nucleus of The Time consisted of drummer Jellybean Johnson, keyboardists Jimmy Jam and Monte Moir, and bassist Terry Lewis, pulled from their local band Flyte Tyme. Guitar demigod Jesse Johnson endeavored to join Prince’s band, but that band didn’t need a guitarist, so he shuffled into The Time’s lineup. Jerome Benton was a promoter from the aforementioned band Enterprise, and was eventually brought on as a comic foil to Morris Day for their stage act.

The band’s debut self-titled album featured two Top 10 R&B hits with “Get It Up” and “Cool.” Their follow-up What Time Is It? delivered an even higher chart peak with “777-9311”. But the band truly hit their stride once featured in Prince’s blockbuster music film Purple Rain. Their songs “Jungle Love” and “The Bird” from the film would become huge R&B and dance hits and propel their third album Ice Cream Castle to #3 on the R&B charts.
