The darkest of night with
the moon shinin' bright.
There's a set goin' strong.
Lotta things goin' on.
The man of the hour
has an air of great power.
The dudes have envied
him for so long.
Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your
fortune by and by
But if you lose, don't ask
no questions why.
The only game you know
is "Do or Die"
Ah-ha-ha
Hard to understand,
but a hell of a man.
This cat from the slum
had a mind, wasn't dumb.
But a weakness was
shown 'cause his hustle
was wrong. His mind was
his own, but the man
lived alone.
Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your
fortune by and by
But if you lose, don't ask
no questions why.
The only game you know
is "Do or Die"
Ah-ha-ha
The game he plays he
plays for keeps. Hustlin'
times in ghetto streets
That's what we tryin'
to do, y'all
Takin' all that he can take.
Gamblin' with the odds
of fate.
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Woo, Superfly
The aim of his role
was to move a lot of blow.
Ask him his dream.
What does it mean.
He wouldn't know.
"Can't be like the rest"
Is the most he'll confess.
But the time's running out.
And there's no happiness.
Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your
fortune by and by.
But if you lose, don't ask
no questions why.
The only game you know
is "Do or Die".
Ah-ha-ha
Superfly
