[Intro: Trina]
Who was, who was the boss?

[Verse 1: Trina]
Fancy me
I thought I had my degree in life
And how love ought to be right
I had a one-step plan to prove it
A guide in my pocket for fools
Fallin' in love
Love had to show me one thing

[Chorus: Tamar]
I was so right
So right, yeah
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
And I was so, so sure
But, but love, but love, but love
Taught me who was
Who was the boss

[Verse 2: Trina]
I defy
Anyone who claimed that I
Didn't control whatever moved
In my soul
I could touch, touch delight
But just because you fell for me
Why should I feel uptight?
Love had to show me one thing
