Ring-ring-ring, it's the same thing
Always call me up, "Yo girl, how you been"
Now I can't breathe, you're smothering me
With lovey-dovey stuff that I don't need
Please, please, please, won't you tell me
What happened to that cat that you used to be
Rollin' with the hood, up to no good
Duzzy duzzy du, and misunderstood
Back, back, back up, reverse, reverse
Cause I, I liked you the way you were
I said back, back, back up, reverse, reverse
Cause I'm just tryin' to find out
What happened to the boy you used to be
I wish he would come back, come back to me
What happened to the boy I used to know
Cause he don't come round, round here no more
What happened to the boy you used to be
Can somebody tell me, tell me please
What happened to the boy I used to know
Won't you tell me, where'd that bad boy go
Bling, bling, bling I don't see no ring
So why you gots 'n' go and change everything
You had goin' on, but now you so gone
Bringing me flowers, singing love songs
Why, why, why do you have to try
To be someone else, you're living a lie
Best check your head, you losing your edge
Bring back the thug or this thing is dead
Back, back, back up, reverse, reverse
Cause I, I liked you the way you were
I said back, back, back up, reverse, reverse
Cause I'm just tryin' to find out
What happened to the boy you used to be
I wish he would come back, come back to me
What happened to the boy I used to know
Cause he don't come round, round here no more
What happened to the boy you used to be
Can somebody tell me, tell me please
What happened to the boy I used to know
Won't you tell me where'd that bad boy go
