Song lyrics

[Intro: Q-Tip]
Do I love you?
Do I lust for you?
Am I a sinner because I do the two?
Can you let me know right now, please?
Bonita Applebum.

[Chorus: Q-Tip]
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita, Bonita, Bonita.

[Verse 1: Q-Tip]
Hey, Bonita, glad to meet ya!
For the kind of stunning newness, I must beseech ya.
Hey, bein' with you is a top priority,
Ain't no need to question the authority.
Chairman of the board, the chief of affections,
You got mines to swing in your direction.
Hey, you're like a hip hop song, you know?
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.

[Chorus: Q-Tip]
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita, Bonita, Bonita.

[Verse 2: Q-Tip]
38–24–37,
You and me, hun, we're a match made in heaven.
I like to kiss ya where some brothers won't,
Listen, I like to tell ya things some brothers don't.
If only you could see through your elaborate eyes,
Only you and me, hun, the love never dies.
Satisfaction, I have the right tactics,
And if you need 'em, I got crazy prophylactics.
So far, I hope you like rap songs,
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.

[Chorus: Q-Tip]
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, I said, you gotta put me on.
Bonita Applebum, you gotta put me on,
Bonita, Bonita, Bonita.

Sex! Sex! Sex!
Freaks! Freaks!
Peace!

[Jarobi White:]
Ayo, who's havin' a ball?
And you know, they ask me to get on the mic.
And they ask me, can I kick it?
Word!
Yes, you can!
Can I kick it?
Yes, you can!
