[Feat. mC Scat Cat]
I'm MC Scat Cat
witha rap to like it
witha story your sure to like it
swift and sly
and i'm playin it cool
with my homegirl Puala Abdul

Baby seems we never ever agree
You like the movies
And I like T.V.
[I take things serious
And you take 'em light]
I go to bed early
[And I party all night]
Our friends are sayin'
[We ain't gonna last]
Cuz I move slowly
[And baby I'm fast]
I like it quiet
[And I love to shout]

But when we get together
It just all works out

I take--2 steps forward
[I take--2 steps back]
We come together
Cuz opposites attract
And you know--it ain't fiction
[Just a natural fact]
We come together
Cuz opposites attract

[Who'd a thought we could be lovers
She makes the bed]
And he steals the covers
[She likes it neat]
And he makes a mess
I take it easy
[Baby I get obsessed
She's got the money]
And he's always broke
I don't like cigarettes
[And I like to smoke]
Things in common
[There just ain't a one]
But when we get together
We have nothin' but fun

I take--2 steps forward
[I take--2 steps back]
We come together
Cuz opposites attract
And you know--it ain't fiction
[Just a natural fact]
We come together
Cuz opposites attract

you know it
baby baaaaaaby

[MC Scat Cat]
now to my timing
for this trust
i'm like a miner
she's like a tussle
one going up
one going down
but we seem to land on common ground
if things go wrong
we make corrections
to keep things movin
in the right direction
i'm tried and failed
i'm telling ya jack
it's useless
opposites attract

Baby ain't it somethin'
How we lasted this long
[You and me (nah nah nah nah)
Provin' everyone wrong]
Don't think we'll ever
Get our differences patched
[Don't really matter
Cuz we're perfectly matched]

Repeat chorus twice
This song is from the album "10 Great Songs", "Greatest Hits" and "Forever Your Girl".
