Ne-Yo
What’s the Matter
[Verse 1]
She wanted the money
The fame
The brand names
The fancy cars
She left her heart broken for a man behind
For a fellow with a championship ring
See here's the thing
About dating a superstar
She was one of like eight or nine
Just another ball player's play thing
And I'm singing

[Chorus]
Oh, and I'm singing what's the matter with ya baby
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with you?
Oh, you
Said ain't that your dream come true?
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with you?
No one to blame but (you)
No one to blame but you, you, you

[Verse 2]
He wanted the money, fame, brand names, fancy cars
Lookin' up to the pusher man, he wanted to be like him
Ooh so bad (ooh, oh so bad)
Well, one hell of a price to pay if you get caught
(Uh) See that's the part he didn't understand
Now he's sittin' in a prison cell all mad
[Chorus]
(Hey) And I'm askin' what's the matter with ya fella?
What's the matter with ya fella?
What's the matter with you?
(Hey) With you?
(Hey) Said ain't that your dream come true?
What's the matter with ya fella?
What's the matter with ya fella?
What's the matter with you?
No one to blame but (you), no one to blame but (you)

[Bridge]
(Hey) All the ladies like a bad boy
So you go and get a bad boy
And he treats you bad
(Hey) And you act suprised?
Be careful what you ask for
You got what you asked for
Tell me why you mad?
(Oh) Tell me why are you mad (Yeah, Yeah)?

[Bridge]
We keep complainin' 'bout we want change
But half of us don't do a thing
So everything stays the same
[Chorus]
And I'm askin' what's the matter with ya, tell me
What's the matter with ya, tell me
What's the matter with you?
(Hey) We can make our dreams come true
What's the matter with ya, tell me
What's the matter with ya, tell me
What's the matter with you (hey, yeah)
We can make our dreams come true
What's the matter with ya tell me
What's the matter with you tell me
What's the matter with you?
(Yeah, Hey, Hey) We can make our dreams come true
What's the matter with ya tell me
What's the matter with you tell me
What's the matter with you (la-da-da-da-de-de)
