The Lyrics

Those pretty trinkets you wear are cool
There's a word to describe them
That is breaking all the rules
It ain't classy or kosher
But it is da bomb
And it's in the dictionary
So please don't be alarmed

Write it down if you should
That might be good
But only use the word when you're hanging in the hood
Wear your pants, wear your pants, wear your pants loose
oh, wear them baggy, tell you what's the word
ah - bling bling
Everybody say when you see their rings
You got to say it right away
Bling bling, it's the right word
No matter how you say it
You know it sounds absurd

Now all your shiny jewelry
When hit with light
Has got a nice reflection
And it sparkles in our sight
You always put on a ton
A treasure chest
You got to be unique
standing out from all the rest
If there's diamonds we can see them
With just a glance
Wear them all the time
So your ego gets enhanced
Gets enhanced
Gets enhanced
Gets enhanced for free
Now come on quickly tell me what's the word
Ah - bling bling
Everybody say when you see their rings
You got to say it right away
Now!

See,
The dictionary...

Oooo, Aaaaah

Look it up, it's clearly spelled...
B-L-I-N-G
B-L-I-N-G
B-L-I-N-G
B-L-I-N-G

B-L-I-N-G

B-L-I-N-G

Thanks Jeff! Hmmm, I'd be interested to know how my pacing is off.

I think I gave you the 4 (not the 3). I went back to the line I thought was a bit off, sang it again...and I blew it, I was wrong. Well done, and you know the pacing better than I do =)
