As simple as it sounds 
It's as simple as it ought to be 
Light skin girls lack the dark skin quality 
Ya don't understand? 
You want an explanation? 
Well let d e l release the frustration 
As i see it 
Every single day 
Light skin girls ain't satisfied unless they get their way 
Always 
Plus they act stuck up 
They all add up to one great big phuck up 
They try to play suck up 
When they want somethin' 
Then always leave a brother with nothin' 
Ya think ya look better cause ya skin's a little bit lighter? 
You're thinkin' you're my type 
Like i was a typewriter? 
No, ya think ya all-uh-that and all-uh-this 
But you ain't really shit 
Without a makeup kit 
See, ya might be light 
But ya ugly to me 
Black is beautiful 
To me, that's beauty. 
[chrous:] 
"dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't 
Better than dark skin,... 
Cube: i disagree homeboy!" 
Now 
Lets get to the problems 
And see if there's a way to solve them 
Problem #1, has got to be the attitude 
Which is usually vain, selfish & rude 
Personality, wit 'er nose stuck up 
So don't try talkin' to her 
Or walkin' with her 
To class cause it's out of the question 
Cause you bein' dark is the wrong complexion 
For her, 
She wish she was light, though 
I mean lighter than light 
Or as close to white as possible 
But i fight to stay a brother 
You see, 
Green and dark skin sisters are the color 
This don't apply to all the girls with light skin 
Just the ones with their heads up their rear end 
Cause if ya did, static would occur 
Dark skin cuties is what i prefer 
Now, look at her 
Her vision is a blur 
Cause contact lenses only let ya see benzes 
Plus she would fuss & cuss if i tried to talk to her 
Cause i'm a man who rides the bus 
I get frustrated 
Well, lets say i used to 
Now a dark & lovely 
Is who i give juice to 
So come on 
Step to del if ya with this 
This is the facts 
So brothers don't forget this. 
[chorus:] 
[interlude:] 
I can't understand 
You light skin wenches 
Ya think ya all that cause ya have long extensions? 
Your hair was natural 
Now ya got played out braids 
You woulda looked better with a fade 
Dark skin girls are so fly, so honest, so sweet 
That's the type of girl i wanna meet 
Complete, 
Not phony or a fake like you are 
See, del is bolder 
I tap you on the shoulder 
And say, 'hey lighty 
Could you tap that sister for me?' 
But you love mr. loveable 
So you'll just ignore me 
So find another tip that you can hop upon 
To get with me ya need some sun and some coppertone 
You'll take a white boyfriend before a black one 
That's why del has to stand and attack one 
Next time you see a girl darker than you 
No disrespct when you met her, cause the girl looked better than you.
