Who's Getting It Now
Chocolate Milk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who is getting it?
Who is getting it now?
Who is getting it?
Who is getting it now?

(Phrase 1)
I, took it for granted - cannot understand it
Thought I was the only one that turned you on
But, while I was tripping, you were tipping
I looked around and honey, you were gone
I could not manage all the damage and the hurt
That you put me through
You left me in a hurry and now I am worried
Somebody else is doing what I used do - baby.

Repeat (Phrase 2)
I, should have known all long that you were making other plans
But I missed my clue and now I am missing you
Somehow, I let you lose at the bottom of my hands
You did not waste any time and that blew my mind
You fed me lies on a silver spoon, but somehow my ego
Did not me know that I was going to be replaced so soon - girl.
