I met her at an art show, she looked like Halle
Walked to a loft show, I pissed in the alley
And she didnât seem to mind, turned a blind eye
To the crassness and casual actions designed to repel
Other guys woulda fed her a line but Iâm not them other guys
I was steadfast in my traction plus I sensed the attraction
Didnât manufacture a tryst or a passionate shift
She wrote those digits on my wrist
With the bubble letter penmanship
Befitting the sex with the gentler gifts
I started serving her heart-shaped sentiments
Like the ones on the heart-shaped cinnamons
Every other day I sent her another mix
And just like that, it was off we went
[Hook]
I used to say no more names
People were framed in the songs I sang
I used to say no more names
The ones Iâd say would get filled with pain
A-D-I-T-I, why do you look so fly?
You got me breakinâ rules and playinâ the fool
Iâd do anything to be staying with you
Spend my days thinkinâ of statements to prove
What Iâm saying to you is true, cause it is
You sit there and listen when I talk about biz
You wait for me in the dark when the party is chalked
And we walk and walk and walk, I hope it never stops
Through the squawks of snowplows and alarm clocks
That buzz at the slight pulse of a whisper
I used to wonder how you might talk
And look, there was no way to predict her
And now you have a name so I say it to you
Song and dance, telegram man, relay it to you
Skype, phone, print, whatever way display it to you
This my way of sayinâ Iâm not playinâ with you
[Hook]
I used to say no more names
People were framed in the songs I sang
I used to say no more names
The ones Iâd say would get filled with pain
A-D-I-T-I, chicka boom boom chicka boom
