Lady
S.T.A.Y Lyrics

Sophisticated lady tryin' to change my ways
A refined woman attempting to alter my behavior

Just because you're caught in your social maze
Merely because you are trapped within societal expectations

I think it's 'bout time that you realize
It is high time for you to comprehend

Your money and your power's got you mesmerized
Your wealth and influence have you under their spell

Pretty lady, get back
Attractive woman, step away

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on
High-class woman, dress casually

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone
Everyone can have you when you are alone

Educated lady with your college degree
Learned woman with an academic credential

Amazes me why you just can't see
Surprises me that you are unable to perceive

Learned everything from your books on the shelf
Acquired knowledge solely from your textbooks

But no one ever taught you how to think for yourself
Yet no one ever instructed you on how to independently reason

Sophisticated lady take a lesson from me
Elegant woman, learn from my example

I can help you be what you want to be
I can assist you in becoming who you aspire to be

Together we'll see many brighter days
Collaboratively, we will experience numerous optimistic moments

If it takes forever, gonna change your ways
Even if it requires an extended period, I will modify your behavior

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on
High-class woman, dress casually

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone
Everyone can have you when you are alone

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on
High-class woman, dress casually

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone
Everyone can have you when you are alone
