My head is underwater
And I can't see the light
I guess you over slept it
But baby I'll be fine

So go on hold me down and flush
'Cause darling I ain't in a rush
And I can hold my breath
Let's not forget

I'm a bad lieutenant

God knows I've had enough tough luck
'Nough blood knees are bruised up
Don't worry 'bout being down on my luck
If you choke I'm a diamond in the rough
If you knew me then you'll know what I'm made of
And I call your bluff

I'm a bad lieutenant
Call me crazy I'm velvet
Already told you that I'm made of bricks I'm cement
Got my girl gang got my back got them
The boys love me and I love them
I ain't got time if you ain't a friend
Talk back get yourself to the back end

What am I? What am I?
What am I made of?
I'm a bad lieutenant

What am I? What am I made of?
I'm a bad lieutenant

I'll be thinking of you
Been wondering where you been
If you bump into me
Oh!
Forgive me for my sins

God knows I've had enough tough luck
'Nough blood knees are bruised up
Ain't worry 'bout being down on my luck
If you choke I'm a diamond in the rough
If you knew me then you'll know what I'm made of
And I call your bluff

I'm a bad lieutenant
Call me crazy I'm velvet
Already told you that I'm made of bricks I'm cement
Got my girl gang got my back got them
The boys love me and I love them
I ain't got time if you ain't a friend
Talk back get yourself to the back end

I'm a bad lieutenant
I'm a bad lieutenant
Oh!

What am I? What am I?
What am I made of?
I'm a bad lieutenant

What am I? What am I made of?
I'm a bad lieutenant

I'm a bad lieutenant
Call me crazy I'm velvet
Already told you that I'm made of bricks I'm cement
Got my girl gang got my back got them
The boys love me and I love them
I ain't got time if you ain't a friend
Talk back get yourself to the back end

I'm a bad lieutenant
I'm a bad lieutenant

Oh!
