Intro:
G-C-D 2x
 
Em
I've been all around the world
G
I've been a new sensation
Am
But it doesn't really matter
In this generation
Em G
The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
Am
And someone said that ain't my scene
Em
'Cause they need a new song
Like a new religion
G
Music for the television
Am
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
Em G
For the record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
Am
Got to find another way to live the life of leisure
Em G-
So I drop my top
Mix and I mingle
Am
Is everybody ready for my single and it goes...
 
{Chorus}
G C D
Ha La La La La
Now listen closely to the verse I lay
G C D
(Ha La La La La)
It's all about the wordplay
G C D
(Ha La La La Love)
Em
The wonderful thing it does
G
Because, because
C D
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
Em
Yeah the Mister A to Z
G-C-D
They say I'm all about the wordplay
