(lead rap talk paragraph)
Do you remember when I said she's got the papers and I've got the man
Well the man that she had that I took from her
Is not the man child that we thought he was at all!
(lead sing paragraph)
Caught in the middle, I don't know what to do
What can you do when your man is untrue
There's another man (oh baby)
In my life (in my life)
Looked very normal until I opened my eyes
The man I love to marry loves another guy
There's another man (another man)
In my life (oh in my life)
(Main chorus paragraph)
Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
Another man is loving mine (another man)
Another man is beating my time (another man)
Another man is loving mine (another man is loving mine)
(background rap with lead singing)
Another man is beating my time (I am going crazy, crazy, crazy)
Another man is loving mine
Another man is beating my time ([soft] going crazy)
Another man is loving mine
(lead rap talk paragraph)
You know you and I were together
I was so in love with you
But there was a little bit
Too much sugar and we were a little … too sweet
(background: There was a little bit too much sugar and you were too sweet?)
(lead sing paragraph)
I think I want to stay but I don't know if I can
Love him like I do and share him with a man
There's another man (another man)
In my life (in my life)
Oh, I think I am going to leave but I can't swallow my pride
Admit my lover loves another guy
There's another man (another man)
(ooh child)
In my life (in my life)
(repeat chorus slightly different)
Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
Another man is loving mine (loving mine)
Another man is beating my time (ooh you know he's beating mine)
Another man is loving mine (mine)
(background rap with lead singing)
Another man is beating my time
Another man is loving mine
Another man is beating my time
Another man is loving mine
You know
I started to notice a definite … strangeness
There was no saneness
He was changing
I had gone out one day and bought me a very, very sexy dress
And opened up my closet and it had disappeared
Lord I hope the man is not wearing mine!
(ooh child!)
(entire paragraph is lead rap talk)
And I also picked up other little things like when you were making love the other night
I thought he was calling out my name
But it evidently was NOT MY NAME.
And I passed him on the steps one day and he was switching more than I was!
(hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,)
And I even caught them holding hands
Walking right down Market Street
Ya'll know where Market Street is
He was so desirable, and it's gonna be such a waste
You know when you think everything is in place
And what you think you had is not what you really have at all
Because in my case what I thought I had
Was not an entire whole man but a facsimile thereof
(ummm, ummm)
Wasn't a clone or nothin', you know I am not into that.
There was a certain kind of way that he talked to me
His voice went up, you know at first he was talking "yeah baby yeah"
And then he went soprano and it kept going up and down
And there must have been, I figure a defect of not when he was created
But somewhere down the line something went wrong
(background)
Another man is beating my time
Another man is loving mine
Another man is beating my time
Another man is loving mine
(To fade)
Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
Another man is loving mine (loving mine)
Another man is beating my time (ooh you know he's beating mine)
