Problem think I got a problem
Think I got a problem, problem yeah
Problem think I got a problem
Think I got a problem, problem yeah

(Verse 1:)
Usually I don't get attatched
We have some fun all done sending back

But this new cat got my attention yes I'll give him that gotta have me thinkin I'm sprung
No scratch that who he think he is not calling me back
Phone jack, ripped it off the wall
Then I plugged it back, Oh Snap
Don't know how to act, think I met my match
I think this ones gonna be a problem for me

(Refrain:)
I think this boy might be a problem,
Said I think this one might be a problem, I was trippin now look at me fallin
Said I think this one gon be a problem for me
Got me catchin feelins but I don't wanna let him know usually keep it movin now I, I can't let it go, I was trippin now look at me fallin

He got me confused I wonder who he take me for
Well I'm through playin games man I'm done
