1. an R&B performer from New York, NY, United States.
2. a British punk / ska / oi! band of the early 1980's (reformed in 2011)
3. a rapper, skateboarder and drummer from San Francisco, CA, United States
1. Case Woodard was born in New York City and was signed to Def Soul records. He first started working in the R&B industry as a backup singer, working with big name R&B artists like Usher. In 1996, Case released his self-titled debut album. The album featured "Touch Me Tease Me" with rapper Foxy Brown and R&B singer Mary J. Blige, the hit single from "The Nutty Professor". The single went gold, reaching #4 on the R&B charts and #14 on the Hot 100.
Case's second album,Personal Conversation, was released in 1999 and went gold. The album featured the hit single "Happily Ever After" which reached #3 on the R&B charts and #15 on the Hot 100. The album's other single, "Think Of You" failed to do well on the charts, managing to only reach #50 on the R&B charts.
Open Letter, Case's most well-known album was released in 2001. The album went gold, likely a result of the single "Missing You." "Missing You" is Case's only #1 single to date as it topped the R&B charts and reached #4 on the Hot 100.
After the success of “Open Letter”, Case moved to Atlanta to be closer to his children, and has over the last several years proven to be a real survivor. To say his seven years “away” from music have been interesting would be an understatement. In 2002 his true determination to survive was witnessed when Case accidentally shot himself in the throat. The bullet that went in through his throat and came out of the back of his neck was miraculously less than a centimeter away from paralyzing and killing him. To the shock of everyone around, Case was out of the hospital in four hours with just bandages around his neck.
With no damage done to his vocal chords Case continued to work on completing his fourth album, but due to professional differences Case asked to be released from Def Jam Records in 2004. He has since worked through the challenges of a changing music industry and partnered with manager Blue Williams to create and independent record label, Indigo Blue. Case is now poised to release his much anticipated album, The Rose Experience in Fall 2008.
A great deal of Case's success has been due to his appearance on movie soundtracks. Many of Case's most popular tracks appear on the soundtracks for Nutty Professor, Rush Hour, Nutty Professor II and The Best Man. These singles were "Touch Me Tease Me" (Nutty Professor), "Faded Pictures" (Rush Hour), "Best Man I Can Be" (The Best Man) and "Missing You" (Nutty Professor II).
2. Hailing from South London, United Kingdom, Case were a five-piece punk (sometimes ska-tinged) outfit led by vocalist Matthew Newman. Their best known line-up featured drummer Derwent, sax players Neil Pyzer and Micky Donnelly, guitarist Rob Brooks and bassist Marc Adams. Their only official release was the Wheat From The Chaff EP (1983), until all of their demo recordings were gathered up on the compilation CD, Ain't Gonna Dance (2011).

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why'know how Cam act drunk or playin' sacks, stand back
Have a girl with a grand pack on Amtrak
Real shrewd, all these niggas be harassing a dude
Eat a girl that's mad or put glass in my food
Or kill me in my sleep or fill me in deep
And if we in Alaska, still we feel heat
And after she skeet me, she fuck me
I remember the days when I wanted you
And tell me, dancing lady, said to step to you
But now that I'm gone, attitude is gone
Say you wanted me all along, what should I do for you?
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
Oh, when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Now don't pretend it ain't my antics that attracted you
Ain't nothing changed about case since I first met you
But now that I'm on, your attitude's gone
You say you wanted me all along what should I do?
I always wanted to give it to you
Touch you in the places you want me to
Now is my time to put it on you
If only you tell me you want me to
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
But when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Uh, uh, uh
Nice girls with a fella thought
I need a hoe that make her tell that bitch
Come give me from the Hella Port
With a blunt roll, hear her bone
Fault even with the stunt
Case be unfold, drink milk a month old
Be duckin' a fever with one roll
And no one to console, come roll
With Big Pun and, yeah, Kenny Smoove
Take a bath, bitch
And get her in any move
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
But when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
But when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
But when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
I know I need a baby I can trust
But when it comes to you
All I wanna do is give it to you
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous

Start of the song
Why'know how Cam act drunk or playin' sacks, stand back
I know how Cam acts when he's drunk or playing games, so stay away
Have a girl with a grand pack on Amtrak
I have a girl with a lot of money who travels by train
Real shrewd, all these niggas be harassing a dude
My girl is clever and all these guys are bothering me
Eat a girl that's mad or put glass in my food
These guys might do something to harm me or my girl
Or kill me in my sleep or fill me in deep
They might even kill or harm me when I'm sleeping, or while filling me in
And if we in Alaska, still we feel heat
Even if we're in a cold place like Alaska, our love is strong and we still feel heat
She know how to treat me, don't bug me or beat me
My girl knows how to treat me well and doesn't bother or hurt me
And after she skeet me, she fuck me
After she pleases me sexually, she has sex with me
I remember the days when I wanted you
I remember the time when I really wanted you
And tell me, dancing lady, said to step to you
And the lady who was dancing asked me to approach you
But now that I'm gone, attitude is gone
But now that I'm no longer interested, your attitude has changed
Say you wanted me all along, what should I do for you?
You say you've wanted me this whole time, so what do you want from me?
Oh, so damn sexy but you're scandalous
You're very attractive, but you're also deceitful and dishonest
I know I need a baby I can trust
I need a partner I can trust and rely on

All I want to do is have sex with you
Now don't pretend it ain't my antics that attracted you
Don't pretend that my behavior didn't attract you to me

I always wanted to have sex with you
Touch you in the places you want me to
Touch you in the way you like it
Now is my time to put it on you
Now is the time for me to have sex with you
If only you tell me you want me to
If only you tell me you want to have sex with me
Nice girls with a fella thought
I used to like nice girls with good judgment
I need a hoe that make her tell that bitch
Now I need a girl who will tell off other girls
Come give me from the Hella Port
Come to me from anywhere
With a blunt roll, hear her bone
Smoke a blunt and have sex with her
Fault even with the stunt
Even with the risk involved
Case be unfold, drink milk a month old
Things are going wrong, like sour milk that's a month old
Be duckin' a fever with one roll
Avoiding getting sick with one joint
And no one to console, come roll
And there's no one to comfort or support me - so come roll with me
With Big Pun and, yeah, Kenny Smoove
Hang out with Big Pun and Kenny Smoove
Take a bath, bitch
Go take a bath, girl
And get her in any move
And get her to do any sexual position
