Pigeon John - The Chase
(from the album Pigeon John... Is Clueless)

Hello… are we recording? Great, great. Can I tell you a little story? It’s about this girl named Harmony. Put your hands up. Put your hands up. I’m sick of this!

Hop, skip, jump, she was a freak, right
The name’s Pigeon John, I can treat her right
Went over to her, thought I could complete her, right
I know what I’m doing, don’t need no advice
I said, “Hello, it’s very nice to meet you
I was searching, looking for a chance to greet you
Maybe have some lunch, so maybe I can reach you
You don’t know much about me, maybe I can teach you”
She said “Cool,” I said “Ok, ah, uh, beautiful”
I was feeling Eddie Murphy like beautiful
The blue sky, everything was very beautiful
Including her, she walked all pursuable

CHORUS:
It’s the chase, what am I to do but pursue
It’s the chase, everything seemed so brand new
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the chase, I know that I should guard my heart
It’s the chase, I was no match from the start
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the chase

We met for luch, her and my homeboys
Ordered a drink, now I’m in the zone, boy
She’s smiling, grinning, now I’m on my own, boy
Talking to her like on telephone, boy
Slow motion, reaching, reaching for the ketchup, right
Second later get a refill on the cup, right
Little mix of Mountain Dew and 7-Up, right
Everything is just smooth and not uptight
And now I introduce her to my friends, dude
I shouldn’t have introduced her to my friends, dude
Cuz now they all acting like they can get it too
And now I’m getting angry at my stupid crew

CHORUS

We walked away, a very lovely afternoon
I said, “You’re very nice and maybe we can hook up soon”
She didn’t say nothing back, hmm
I wish I could take back what I said like a vacuum
She said, “That would be cool, I guess, yo
But what about your homeboy, is he single”
What! “CookBook, that dude from Puerto Rico”
No! “You’re a nice guy, but he’s making me think, yo”
I like her, a-a-a-and she likes him
A-a-a-and what am I to do, a-a-a-and gotta, gotta win
Hawthorne!

It’s the chase, auuugh, forget it
It’s the chase, ? simply no sense
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase
It’s the chase, I know that I should guard my heart
It’s the chase, I was no match from the start
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the cha-a-a-a-ase, oh boy
It’s the chase

Go run along, boy
Go run along, boy
It’s the chase
(6x)

It’s the… fill in the blank
