OutKast - Roses (Explicit Version)

Roses by: OutKast, I do not own this music.

"Roses"

[Verse One — Andre 3000:]
Caroline! Caroline!
See Caroline all the guys would say she's mighty fine
But mighty fine only got you somewhere half the time
And the other half either got you cursed out, or coming up short
Yeah, now dig this, now even though

You'd need a golden calculator to divide
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, ha ha yeah!

[Chorus 2x:]
I know you'd like to thank your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like boo-boo
Yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo

[Verse Two — Andre 3000:]
Caroline! See she's the reason for the word "bitch"
I hope she's speeding on the way to the club
Trying to hurry up to get to some
Baller or singer or somebody like that
And try to put on her makeup in the mirror
And crash, crash, crash into a ditch! (just playing!)

She needs a golden calculator to divide
The time it took to look inside and realize
That real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

[Chorus]

[Verse Three — Big Boi:]
Well she's got a hottie body, but her attitude is potty
When I met her at a party she was hardly acting naughty
I said, "Shorty, would you call me?"
She said, "Pardon me, are you ballin'?"
I said, "Darling, you sound like a prostitute pursing."
Oh so you're one them freaks, get geeked at the sight of an ATM receipt
But game been peeped, dropping names she's weak
Trickin' off this bitch is lost
Must take me for a geek a quick way to eat
A neat place sleep, a rent-a-car for a week, a trick for a treat
Now go on the raw sex, my AIDS test is flawless
Regardless, we don't want to get involved with no lawyers
And judges just to hold grudges in a courtroom
I wanna see ya support bra not support you!

[Chorus]

Better come back down to Mars
Girl, quit chasin' cars
What happens when the dough gets low
Bitch, you ain't that fine
No way, no way, no way

[Repeat 2x]
Crazy bitch
Bitch, stupid ass bitch
Old punk ass bitch, old dumb ass bitch
A bitch's bitch, just a bitch

[sample.text.]

Music like this will never go out of style. Outkast was just on another level.

[waiteeo]

My dad passed away last year but this song comforts me so much! He loved singing this song😂😂 he was a sarcastic fella and would sing this with so much passion lmao. I listen to this when I want to remember the good and funny times😇😇

[lateshiachilds]

I just love Outkast, I miss the early 00s.

[Jessmab]

I was driving my 12yo daughter to school yesterday and this came on the radio. She had the whole "gawd MOM" look on her face when I started singing but by the end she was entertained😄

[ShitStorm]

The piano in the beginning never ceases to send chills up my spine

[frankapalategui]

I play this on Valentine's day every year can't wait this year

[marklane]

Who’s listening with me on the lockdown of 2020

[danielsansamicus]

I’d like to give this crew (OutKast) proper credit for an amazing record ‘document’ of when friends, bands, collaborators are moving in opposite directions in life and art. Gracefully grateful.
No messy soap opera or public disagreements that I can recall.
Brilliant

[MrSapper]

My ex wife's name is Caroline. I love this song.

[udlinennyycherep]

Best use of poopoo in a song i'd say.

[acex]

No wrong lyrics, no shitty quality sound. You sir, deserve applause. I'm applauding you through my keyboard.

[reptilianviking]

Explicit version on spotify is the radio version. This wins

[vCLOWNSHOESv]

All songs should be played in their original forms. Never alter true art like the music the guys make.

[moncriefmiked]

Oh my goodness that organ music deep in the back..

[hamiltoncrete]

This song ruined my father's botanical garden business for years

[gilmorehappy]

Dude this is the best song possibly ever to live right before your Divorce finalizes. LETS FUCKING Thank you OutKast 🙏🏼

[nickhernandez]

I have a wonderful memory with this song as a teen. My sisters bought this album and on a car ride with my mother, this was all of our first times hearing the explicit version of the song. Needless to say that minute or two of "crazy bitch"/"dumbass bitch"/etc was the best part of the entire experience. I hope you're all having a blessed day.

[Tristan-wmyd]

Last minute thirty of this song SLAPS!

[azminivanracer]

This song grabs you from the very beginning with that piano riff then it’s a just a whole vibe the rest of the way. I love this song.
