[Intro]
Oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
(Creep) oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
Oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
(Creep) oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah

[Verse 1: T-Boz]
The 22nd of Loneliness
And we've been thru so many things
I love my man with all honesty
But I, know he's cheating on me oh yeah
I look him in his eyes
But all he tells me is lies to keep me near
I'll never leave him down
Though I might mess around
It's only cause I need some affection
Oh

[Chorus]
So I creep
Yeah just keep it on the down low
'cept nobody is supposed to know
So I creep
Yeah cuz he doesn't know what I do
And no attention goes to show
Oh so I creep

[Verse 2: T-Boz]
The 23rd of Loneliness
And we don't talk like we used to do
Now it seems pretty strange
But I'm not buggin' cause I still feel the same
Yeah Yeah
I keep givin lovin till the day he pushes me away
Never go astray
If he knew the things I did (Whoo)
He couldn't handle it
And I choose to keep him protected, oh

[Chorus]
So I creep
Yeah just keep it on the down low
'cept nobody is supposed to know
So I creep
Yeah cuz he doesn't know what I do
And no attention goes to show
Oh so I creep
Oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
So I creep, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
So I creep, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
Baby, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah yeah
So I creep
Yeah just keep it on the down low

So I creep
Yeah cuz he doesn't know what I do
And no attention goes to show
So I creep
Yeah just keep it on the down low

So I creep
Yeah cuz he doesn't know what I do
So I creep, 'cept nobody is supposed to know

TLC

TLC is a trio whose musical repertoire spans over R&B, hip-hop, soul, pop, rock, funk, and new jack swing.

Consisting of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, rapper-singer Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and singer Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, TLC found unprecedented success in the 1990s, not only as a musical group, but also for an extensive series of high profiled spats with the law, each other, and with their record label—all of which helped to solidify them as one of the definitive recording acts to emerge during the aforementioned time span.

The group, which is in fact the highest-selling girl group in America with 65 million records sold, is known for tackling important social issues in their music such as AIDS awareness, violence, domestic abuse, anorexia, bulimia, sexism, racism, and homophobia.
