Why Today

Got goose pimples when you felt my voice in your ear
You wanted to know if at about noon I’d be here
I said with just one word a simple yes
What I meant was I know you'd like to see me 
so contact me at my desk

You wanted to kiss me 
So you could feel what I’m sayin
You wanted to kiss me
So you could spit how I do 
And make it taste like pina-colada mixed with me and you

I know you like more than my smile
you probably even want me to have ya chile
but in reality its just physically what you see of me
you don't know me emotionally
you don't know me mentally 
though we've held conferences that of plenty wish to witness 

rhymin’ about everything from cookin’ in the kitchen to visual thickness
you want to be the melody to my unannounced beat of life
you want to march to my hearts beating drum
make me ya wife and ill give you some
but not today.
