[00:00.133] At 2 o' clock in Hollywood, which means I gotta leave here by 1
[00:03.480] I should call an Uber at 12:50
[00:05.561] And then after that I gotta meet Bear at Joe's Falafel for dinner at 8 PM (Correct)
[00:09.789] Shit, I need a day off
[00:11.682] (Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while
[00:17.486] Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while)
[00:19.561] I think that'd be good for me, honestly
[00:21.925] If I just chill that'd be-
[00:23.424] (Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while)
[00:26.701] Gonna get ready now though, huh
[00:29.078] (Once in a while, once in a while, once in a whilе)
[00:30.104] Yo, this haircut is crazy, my God
[00:34.885] Bald head smooth, not too shabby
[00:37.695] Time for cologne so Jеssie know I'm classy
[00:40.663] I keep the bottle next to the heat on the dresser
[00:43.446] That was too much she'll think I'm trying to impress her
[00:46.368] I take another shower to wash off the smell
[00:48.895] 20 minutes late now, need excuse to tell
[00:51.669] I'll just blame it on the traffic, better yet an accident
[00:54.659] Car went in a backspin, it was tragic
[00:57.573] On the 405 that's it
[00:59.606] I call an Uber X
[01:00.806] Here comes a man named Dafar in a Camry
[01:03.915] Hurry up, I need the Grammy before I'm an antique
[01:06.818] I'm too antsy, I get to the studio
[01:09.490] There's a white dude in a hoodie named Andy
[01:12.271] (Hey, my name's Andy, I'll be your engineer)
[01:15.182] Cool
[01:15.660] (Jessie's not here)
[01:16.446] Alright
[01:17.172] (can I offer you a drink)
[01:18.472] Yeah, I'll take a cold beer
[01:20.337] (We only have water and juice)
[01:22.009] That's so L.A. Makes sense
[01:23.129] I kill the time lookin' at my DMs, I check 'em
[01:26.940] (Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while)
[01:30.153] (She's not bad)
[01:31.606] Yeah, I check 'em every
[01:32.699] (Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while)
[01:38.007] And Jessie walks in the room like ahh
[01:41.358] Bodyguard with her like (don't get too close, mother****er)
[01:43.616] And I gotta say that she smelled like ahh
[01:46.920] I'm dumbfound lookin like "mmm, good God!"
[01:50.034] And suddenly I'm so not prepared
[01:52.888] I'm doing my best just not to stare
[01:55.707] I'm wonderin' how I got in here
[01:58.228] Must be the Lord's blessings
[02:00.050] The first thing she says is:
[02:01.244] Christ, Mike dear
[02:03.013] What've you done with all your hair
[02:05.872] You're lookin' like a white monk, it's weird
[02:08.563] Well you know I just shaved it all off
[02:10.887] It's just something that I do every
[02:13.219] Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while
[02:18.880] Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while
[02:24.699] Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while
[02:30.517] Once in a while, once in a while, once in a while, yeah
[02:35.850] Now I'm super embarrased, in all fairness
[02:38.689] She wasn't tryna be mean, she was just surprised
[02:41.456] Or maybe she was and now I'm just justifyin' the behavior
[02:45.010] Because I love her but I'd touch her as much as I love her eyes
[02:49.450] That must be why I tell her "you look very pretty today"
[02:52.932] Nice one, dummy (uh, thanks)
[02:55.046] Very original
[02:56.836] I am sensing something subliminal (this guy's weird)
[02:59.543] I think she doesn't really like me (I don't like him)
[03:01.802] I think she's thinkin' that I'm lame as **** (he's lame as ****)
[03:04.444] Yeah, she's thinkin' that I'm lame as **** (yup)
[03:07.272] So imma sing her a song that I already wrote
[03:10.558] And pretend I just made it up
[03:14.112] Hey, uh, hey Jessie
[03:16.485] Yeah
[03:17.777] What if we tried something like
[03:22.199] Don't do me dirty, show me some mercy
[03:26.617] Darlin', please lay down your weaponry (that's cool)
[03:30.956] How did I end up somewhere between, oh (uhh)
[03:36.336] Lover and a memory
[03:39.177] 'Cause I don't believe in a halfway heart (that's cool)
[03:43.297] Ba-buh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh (y'know?)
[03:47.692] Mm-a-bee-dah-dah (Something like that)
[03:50.447] That's dope
[03:53.436] It'll sound
[03:54.272] I like it
[03:54.928] It'll sound better in your voice, too, when you sing it
