Every girl of culture's got a favorite car 
 
 The kind of car that makes a girl lose her cool 
 
 My daddy had a yellow Riviera Star 
 
 That he used 2 let me drive 2 school 
 
 All the boys would follow me after class 
 
 Never let 'em take me 4 a ride 
 
 I didn't want 'em thinkin' that I was fast 
 
 I mean nearly every girl has got her pride 
 
 Every cheerleader in the senior class 
 
 Really, really hated my yellow pants 
 
 Maybe it was the way they hugged my ass 
 
 But I was the one the fellas asked 2 dance 
 
 Zina is the sister that I have 2 raise 
 
 She's younger but her chest is bigger than mine 
 
 But my voice is deeper so I got it made 
 
 Real live men hate girls that whine 
 
 Every man wants a dame with style 
 
 A saint by day and a sinner at night 
 
 I maybe talk dirty 4 a little while 
 
 If he buys my dinner, that's alright 
 
 Most boys think they're so c-cool 
 
 As far as she can see, most boys are jerks 
 
 Double time talkers with half-time jewels 
 
 U know that ain't the way Sheila E. works 
 
 I met a little pretty with yellow hair 
 
 Wanted my body and my car 2 
 
 I gave him everything cuz I didn't care 
 
 Now this little yellow girl is blue 
 
  
  Yellow's a happenin' color 
 
 If U're a banana 
 
 Countin' the days until U're a prune 
 
 But blue's a better color 
 
 If U're lookin' 4 a lover 
 
 2 show your pretty colors 2
