Fly By Night Guys
Written by: JacquiiC (Jacquii Cooke), Ant (Ant), ladylyric (Monique P. Reid), Hugh (Hugh), FaShaBaby (Janis A. Dizon)

you know the type; the kind fly-by knight guys
Stand up men/Hit-it-split dudes/one night stand guys
...You know-the call "Ya Too-Morrow" type guys
The ones that (gasp!) break yo' heart in greed
Only to find yo' soul's smarter before the deceit

you know the type; we were once truly knights
greed and deceit are our game just to cover up the true pain
we wanted a woman like our mother; but they wanted multiple lovers
my brothers, my brothers what are we to do.
let's stand up and be true knights and not fly-by NIGHT.

You know the type; DAMN them fly-by night guys
Them look into your eyes; search your soul type guys
Them secrets revealed to; defamation in my ear spittin; flimflam of my heart type guys
Them lemon juice dripping in an open wound type guys
Search strength in me to turn to the "fly-by night guy" and say GOOD-BYE guy (For Good)

Chop the bean stock!
This jack needs to be lost in a moment. Get off this seesaw, sick of this up and down.
It get's old and....
I need to take the "E" out of this "Emotion,"
and "Exit" to get "Motion!"....

...that type that get you missing you heart, wasn't looking 'cuz
his face was too nice, his smell was just right
(he's a fly-by night)
couldn't tell if his hands were there to caress or rob
that type, those men- they get you time and time again

you say goodbye and the next one takes his place,
you're caught again.
