The Flex Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Oh)
Ginuwine, Funkmaster Flex
In your earhole, whoo!
Drop a bomb to this, what?
Let's do this, listen

Saw her in the club
As she was about the finest thing I had ever seen
I was so addicted cause she was like a drug
And I was a fiend
I wanted to walk over
Imagining her body was calling me
I had to get with it and make it quick
I had to hit cause baby girl was a dream
I wanted to say

1 - How would you like it if I...
Touched a little
Felt a little
Grabbed a little
Could you handle if I...
Licked a little
Taste a little
Ate a little

Repeat 1

Yo second verse
Kept staring at her hoping that she would see
And maybe call me over
I was gifted but my confidence wouldn't let me
So I sat back and thought things over
(What I get?)
Got a bottle of the Cris (Oh)
Got a bottle of the Mo (Oh)
Now I'm looking like a Don Juan
So I know she gotta notice me
Over all the others
Cause they be singing all the same songs

Repeat 1 (2x)

Finally walked over to her
Told her she was the finest woman I had ever seen
She told me why'd I take so long
Cause all night she was already peepin' me
She said she likes a man who knows what he wants
Never fronts and ain't scared to ask
She was down for whatever
So I took her to the floor, got together
And I tapped that ass, yeah

Repeat 1 (2x)

Yo Flex take em there
Oh, oh, oh, oh...

air and wave them like you just don't care. Ginuwine and Funkmaster Flex are on the mic, ready to drop some beats that will make you move. In their song "Like You," they describe a scene at the club where Ginuwine lays his eyes on the woman of his dreams. He's so taken by her beauty that he imagines her body "calling" him, like an addict yearning for his fix. Ginuwine wants to make a move, so he asks her if she can handle his advances. He sings, "How would you like it if I touched a little, felt a little, or grabbed a little?" He also asks, "Could you handle if I licked a little, tasted a little, or ate a little?" Ginuwine is laying it all out there, being bold and daring, hoping to get a positive response from his crush.


In the second verse, Ginuwine tries to catch her attention by staring at her, but he's too shy to approach her. He decides to up his game by getting a bottle of Cristal and Moet, hoping to impress her. Eventually, he finds the courage to talk to her and tells her she's the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. She responds positively and admits to peeping him all night, waiting for him to make a move. She says she likes a man who knows what he wants and is not afraid to ask for it. Ginuwine takes her to the dance floor and shows her a good time.
