[INTRO — funky bassline, crisp hip-hop drums] [Female spoken — amused, unimpressed] Uh-huh... Really? That's what we doing now? (laughs) Whatever. [VERSE 1 — rhythmic female rap, playful attitude] You called me up around a quarter to ten Talking 'bout you wanna see me again Last week you had a whole different plan Now you wanna come around and be my man You said you were busy, said you had things to do Funny how your schedule opened up at two I ain't even mad, I'm just looking at you Trying to figure out which story is true You got a reason for this An excuse for that Every time I turn around You got another little act I used to sit and listen Used to try to understand Now I let you finish talking While I'm making other plans [PRE-CHORUS — smooth melodic female vocals] Ooh, here we go again Same old conversation You can tell it how you want I ain't looking for translation [CHORUS — catchy, melodic, sassy] Whatever, whatever You can say whatever makes you feel better Whatever, whatever I ain't losing sleep over you, never Go ahead, tell your story Make it sound real clever You can keep your explanations Baby, whatever Whatever, whatever I'm doing just fine And I'm getting even better [POST-CHORUS — playful female harmonies] Whatever! (Mmm-hmm) Whatever! (Okay then) Whatever! (You said what?) Boy, whatever! [VERSE 2 — confident rap, funky groove] Now you see me looking good on a Saturday night Hair done, nails done, everything right You wanna know where I'm going, who I'm gonna see That's a whole lotta questions for somebody who's free You had a little chance, had a little time Had a front-row seat, could've called it mine But you kept on talking, kept on playing around Now you looking surprised when I don't come around I'm not bitter, I'm busy Got some places to be Got a whole lotta living And it's looking good on me I ain't blocking your number I ain't starting no fight You can call me tomorrow I might answer next July [PRE-CHORUS] Ooh, here we go again Same old conversation You can tell it how you want I ain't looking for translation [CHORUS] Whatever, whatever You can say whatever makes you feel better Whatever, whatever I ain't losing sleep over you, never Go ahead, tell your story Make it sound real clever You can keep your explanations Baby, whatever Whatever, whatever I'm doing just fine And I'm getting even better [BRIDGE — beat drops to bass and handclaps] [Female spoken — teasing] Oh, now you miss me? That's interesting. 'Cause when I was available, you was unavailable. And now that I'm unavailable, you suddenly available? (laughs) Baby, that's a scheduling problem. [BEAT DROP — funky horn stabs, hard drums] [VERSE 3 — sharp, playful female rap] I got sunshine waiting and a beautiful day Got a little extra money and some bills getting paid Got a reservation somewhere with a view And I promise you, baby, I ain't thinking 'bout you Got my music turned up and my windows cracked Got my favorite little shades and my seat leaned back If you see me at the light, you can wave, that's fine But don't hold up the traffic trying to change my mind I ain't got no grudges I ain't got no beef I just learned that peace Is a beautiful thing And the next time you call With that same old weather I'ma smile at the phone And say... [FINAL CHORUS — layered female harmonies] Whatever, whatever You can say whatever makes you feel better Whatever, whatever I ain't losing sleep over you, never Go ahead, tell your story Make it sound real clever You can keep your explanations Baby, whatever Whatever, whatever I'm doing just fine And I'm getting even better [OUTRO — spoken, laughing] Anyway... What was I doing before you called? Oh, yeah. Living. Whatever! [Final bass hit]
