Pardon Me Yo Lyrics (Woman speaking in Spanish): Tambien, como la tierra, yo pertenezco a todos. No hay un solo gota de odio en mi pecho, sabiersas. Abra mis manos, dispersio las uvas en el viento. (This is repeated in English at the end of the song.)
Chorus (Identified woman singing): Patiently wait for you, pardon me yo Hopelessly wait for you, pardon me yo Can't get away from you, pardon me yo Don't know what to do without you Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo
Verse 1 (Coffee): When I sit and think, scatter my brains across the city. Then I'm tickled pink, over matters that get me giddy. Get me in a stink, it's the baddest that make me silly. Do I need a drink? No! Jumpstart a party of pity. It's smart to be cautious, really, and feel, you gotta feel me. Ain't tryin' to be outta' order, just breakin' me offa' quarter. Switchin' positions-Wishin' the sink in the kitchen was bolted. I'm on the brink if they can get it, in my palm, and I hold it. Who play the cover? None other. Smother me like my mother. Oh brother, (you can't) high above me you hover. Your embrace is like (whoo!) lover's power like (bloww!). Get white with my expressions, like, "Wow!"
Chorus
Verse 2 (Bone): You see, pardon me yo. Every minute and second I reminisce how your affection has affected me so And protected me though, I was wild and disconnected from your presence. Disrespectin' the commitment you expected from my Body and soul, pardon me yo, But my emotions spinnin' out of control. 'Cuz my physical knows You're the part of me that gives my heartbeat the rhythm. Combinin' with these natural flows, I could never let go. Or accept no imititation. Determination got me patiently waitin' For the day that I'm facin' you. Eternally, embraced with you. I can't wait to take my place with you (yo).
Chorus X2
(Girl speaking): Like the earth, I belong to everyone. There is not a single drop of hatred in my breast. Open wide my hands, scatter grapes to the wind. Pardon me, yo?
Song fades with: Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo, pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo. Patiently wait for you, pardon me yo. Hopelessly wait for you, pardon me yo. Can't get away from you, pardon me yo...
