[LL Cool J]
My 12th album launched
Now everything is carte blanche
There's only one God
Victory is all I want, let's go

[Chorus: LL Cool J + (Juelz)]
Ah one-two and uh, ah one-two and uh
Juelz, it's LL and (Santana)
Ah one-two and uh, ah one-two and uh
Juelz, it's LL and (Santana)
You witnessin history!
(To my homies who get it and get it the fast way)
(To my ladies who get it and get it so nasty)
To my baby mommas that like it real flashy
Can't wait to smash me (all they do is harass me)

[Juelz Santana]
Check it, I stay in smoke filled Benzes
Don't see nothin, you know the whole world's tinted
OZM so po'-po' don't sing sing
My license and registration is good, go check it
It cost to be the boss, it cost for me to floss
Of course you see the frost - got diamonds on my neck
I'm the, big skipper, big dipper, big pot
Big whipper, just watch, big rocks, big flipper - ya dig?
Big money, big spender, big getter
Big hustler, big grinder, do you get the big picture - ya dig?
Dis is a, club banger, trunk hopper
Block rocker, rude bwoy, top shotter
Ay! This is for my down South trappers
My midwest slabbers - ya dig?
Ay! Yup yup, this is for my East coast slangers
My West coast bangers - ya dig?

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J]
VV9 Vanquishes
Never lunchin, I hit your honey with these languages (I'm about that)
Warto, Bertaliano, Cancerilli{?}
Neck shinin, my diamonds purple as grape jelly (I'm about that)
Thorough get yo' bread perspective
Don't forget to set your Tivo, my my game's perfected (I'm about that)
Rainbow ice, you confidant talk politely
Leave the party with your wifey, so don't invite me
Bang one of them joints from New Orleans
Juvey hustle harder, Birdman you still boring
Northside (Ch-ch-ch-choppin the ? of my gold rims)
Southside (Ch-ch-ch-choppin the ? of my gold rims) - you about that?
How I'm beamin in the Beemer
Bounce wit'cha honey have you singin "Have you seen her?"
Uhh, have you seen her
L put in work, gospel - church!

[Chorus]

[Jennifer Lopez:]
No me puedo controlar
Aqui con el señor LL Cool J
Y aqui estoy... ya tu sabes
Uno, dos, tres, muevete!

[Jermaine Dupri:]
Ya'll know what this is...So...So...Def!

[LL Cool J:]
The club was far from empty
It was crowded at the entry (Woo!)
I slide right through like how I do
This girl began to tempt me (Uh-huh!)
She said hello Shayeeda
I could tell her mama feed her (Yeah!)
When they tight and thick them jeans don't fit
I'm L, nice to meet ya (Uh-oh!)
I could feel my body yearning
The room just started turning
Didn't want to go out on the floor
but this girl was so determined (Let's dance)
My brain began to sizzle
I'm sweatin' just a little
On the dance floor in the middle
She turned around and giggled

[Jermaine Dupri:]
She said

[Chorus:]

[Jennifer Lopez:]
You got, you got, you got
what it takes to make me leave my man

[LL Cool J:]
It's hard to control myself (Aww!)
It's hard to control myself
You got, you got, you got
What it takes to make this boy be bad (Be bad)

It's hard to control myself
It's hard to control myself

[Jennifer Lopez:]
It's hard for me to control myself (Me too)
and to hold myself back from jumpin' on ya
like I wanna, like I wanna, wanna

[LL Cool J:]
Temptation is a mother
How we lust for one another (Yeah)
We barely know each other
Yet we're waddling like we're lovers
The air is full of passion
The strobe lights are flashin'
The hustlers throw cashin'
The bartender keeps splashin'
Her moves were so erotic
Her gaze was so hypnotic
I bet this girl will stop it
But she continued to pop it

[Both:]
You know I know you like it
Let me hit you on your Sidekick
Because the afterparty is at my body
Meet me you're invited

[Jermaine Dupri :]
She said

[Chorus:]

[Jennifer Lopez:]
You got, you got, you got
what it takes to make me leave my man

[LL Cool J:]
It's hard to control myself
It's hard to control myself
You got, you got, you got
What it takes to make this boy be bad (Be bad)

It's hard to control myself
It's hard to control myself

[Jennifer Lopez:]
It's hard for me to control myself (Say what)
and to hold myself back from jumpin' on ya
like I wanna, like I wanna, wanna

[LL Cool J:]
She licked, off, her lip, gloss
Her hips, tossed, back, and forth
Side, to side, and up, and down
She touched, the ground, it turned, me out
I'm battling desire
Lord help me douse this fire
This internal inferno
Hotter than a shot of Cuervo
Her top was short and purple
Belly dancing in a circle
When I feel like this I can't resist
Stop it don't make me hurt you (make me hurt you)

Jermaine Dupri:
She said

[Chorus:]

[Jennifer Lopez:]
You got, you got, you got
what it takes to make me leave my man

[LL Cool J:]
It's hard to control myself
It's hard to control myself (Oh)
You got, you got, you got
What it takes to make this boy be bad (Be bad)

It's hard to control myself
It's hard to control myself

[Jennifer Lopez:]
It's hard for me to control myself (Say what)
and to hold myself back from jumpin' on ya
like I wanna, like I wanna, wanna

[LL Cool J:]
Zezeze...

[Both:]
Zezeze...

Jermaine Dupri:
Uh, yeah, I need everybody to report to the dance floor
Right...now!

[LL Cool J:]
Shake it, shake it, shake it

[Jermaine Dupri:]
Haha, you know what this is

. . .


[LL Cool J]
Uh-huh, eh-heh
Lay back on this one (yeah, you know how I do baby)

You only a customer
When you walkin in the presence of hust-lers
Uhh, I'm laid back in the cinnamon Range
Two decades and ain't a damn thing changed
Keep my girl, in strawberry swirls
You can taste it, my instict's basic
Lord have mercy, sweet like Hershey
Kisses, diamonds for the misses, ices on the wrist-es
All different colors of the spectrum
The smallest flaw and I reject 'em
Believe me I'm a conniseur when I inspect 'em
I baguettes them, invisibly sets them
They call me big L-ly Wonka from Compton to Yonkers
Them Chi-Town steppers and them A-Town stompers
These young rookies, fail to understand
Every summer I return like the ice cream man
Drop what you doin, get-it get-it while you can
By the eighth, by the ounce, when it's gone I'ma bounce
It's the F-L-A-V, no if's or maybe's
You know what I do, drive your tastebuds crazy

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige + (LL)]
Like lemondrops with chocolate kisses
Every bite is more delicious
My favorite flavor
(Mix me and you and we can't go wrong)
Like caramel on vanilla sundae
Have a scoop you'll want some day
Cause you're my favorite flavor
(C'mon, baby baby c'mon) c'mon

[LL Cool J]
My flavor's unreal
Smooth but hard like woodgrain on the wheel
Recline your seat baby, enjoy how it feel
Why you crossin your legs, them high heels of eel?
Kick off your shoes, run your toes on the dash
Now peel off your stockings, c'mon let's get it poppin
I'm in the mood for cotton, candy and I'm plottin
to see you in somethin silky and see-through
Me too! Man you know how we do
Camcorder main feature, damn a preview
I love how the bottom on your body's EQ
Low but thick though like the base in a six-fo'
So here we go (here we go) we bunny hoppin
I hit the switches baby, you keep it droppin
It feels marvelous, you in charge of this
I hope you ain't heartless but my guard's now regardless

[Chorus]

[Mary J. Blige + (LL)]
(Uhh) All I wanna do
Is eat you up cause you look so good
(Think I look alright huh?)
(I look better on you, what'chu really wanna do?)
All I wanna do
Is show you boy that I taste good too
(I know you taste good ma)
(What'chu sayin, want a sprinkle of the hood ha? Ha?)

[LL Cool J]
We had it out
Now tell your girls the truth when they ask what I'm about
The cookies and the cream and the peaches 'n praline
Butter pecan themes in your daydreams
All real sugar, no sacca-rhine
Low calorie leave no cavities
Guaranteed no place you'd rather be
Than here with me, mix chocolate in the factory

[Chorus]

[Mary] Ba-bee

Put my lifestyle on hold for you,

What would you think if I told you that I...
Wake up every morning with a different girl,
Cause I don't wanna settle down before I see the world!
What would you think if I told you that I...
Know exactly what you need indeed,
Hate to follow but i'm scared to lead...
Too scared love will get the best of me...
I know deep down by the zest of me...
Hopefully some day I can give you that ring...
But until then just do this one thing...

Hey [4X]

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
We gon' get it poppin now girl
Get your best dress on tonight
Once we start it ain't no stoppin girl
Get your best dress on tonight
This is for the girls
With all those ghetto curves
But we gon' get to poppin now girl
Get your best dress on tonight

[LL Cool J]
54-11's poppin wheelies front of Willyburgers
Candy apple M3's, slidin out gently
Rollin up in Bentleys, Tyson was the champ then
Right after the Rooftop, years before the Hamptons
You was a ghetto queen and a diamond in the rough
You was so beautiful and the world was so rough
Your man was locked up cause the cops popped up
You dropped out of school on top of that you knocked up
He was yo' crush, you was his crutch
He'll be gone a dime and it's hard to stay in touch
Your moms say you stupid but you love him so much
Now it's, broken dreams and broken Beemers in the dust
Standin up on a crowded bus, for college courses
Stay on course when it gets rough, you never lost it
Stay strong baby trust, you'll be back flossin
Diamond studs and linen crush keep your head up

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J]
Her boyfriend's comin through with them hickeys on his neck
He claims he's lovin her but never shows her no respect
All she knows is neglect, a lifetime of stress
Big momma, huh momma, now lil' momma is next
You can see the effects of gettin treated incorrect
Cause she let the cycle continue, make excuses for his steps
Her girlfriends tried to warn her, all he wanted wass the sex
Once he get it, then he gone, then it's on to somethin fresh
Somethin new, nuttin borrowed, nuttin blue, no weddin dress
But that's aight, you still young, you got your lifetime left
You gotta leave all that alone, find yourself
There's no love until you love you remind yourself

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J]
To all my ghetto girls all around the world
You know the ones with the weaves and the Shirley Temple curls
Keep fightin, uhh
Baby girl keep fightin
To all my ghetto queens survivin by all means
There's a rock and a hard place you somewhere in between
Keep fightin, uhh
Baby girl keep fightin, yeah
To all my single mommas you been strugglin with drama
Doin what'chu gotta but still keepin your honor
Keep fightin, uhh
Baby girl keep fightin, yeah yeah, sing it

[Chorus]

[Jamie] Get your best dress on tonight [3X to fade]

[LL Cool J:]
You seem like a type
That wanna do a couple things
When I look in your eyes

[Teairra Mari:]
Slow down baby
I'm waitin more than a fling
And I'm up on the game

Your vibes is real cold
You better smarten up
Slide in the rolls

[Teairra Mari:]
I'm not the next chick
You can hit the exit
Everything you sayin
It's just what I expected

[LL Cool J:]
Parts are projected
Many more are you collected
Life is a movie
I'm just tryna direct
You know like I know
You do wanna stay connected
Hit you to the rules of the game
Shorty check it

[Chorus:]
[LL Cool J:] Chain on my neck
[Teairra Mari:] Preserve the sexy

[Teairra Mari:] You tryna flip me
[LL Cool J:] Naw B

By the time I make a move

[Teairra Mari:] Ain't no moves to be made
[LL Cool J:] Too many games get played
[Teairra Mari:] Too many chickens get layed
And watch their record say she's tained
[LL Cool J:] Where you from
[Teairra Mari:] Detroit
[LL Cool J:] What that mean
[Teairra Mari:] I'mma point

[LL Cool J:]
Relax, we talkin
Don't get your draws out of joint
I wanna see you smile
Elevate your life style
Cop a yacht
Hit the south the French

[Teairra Mari:]
Not a chance

[LL Cool J:]
Keep your little advance
This one's on me
In the chef's a boar
You can eat for free

[Teairra Mari:]
Slow down sweetie
My waist is 24
I'm far from greedy

[LL Cool J:]
You gonna love it believe me

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J:]
Back sippin Venome S
Spillin it all my leanin
My baby's smooth leather
It' softer than most women
Everything is crist
From my cuff to the trimmin
Words can't describe
All the gummers that I've been in

[Teairra Mari:]
I've been half caught in yes
Which whips every day
My lil jack Russell
Knows how to hustle
I stay with canary's on
Platinum on every song
Hate it or love it
Them respect how I does it

[LL Cool J:]
Well I'm not them
That's how I got gems
Cost a quarter million Dollars
For Don ? rims
Understand me Slim
That's how the game begin
If he was me, then he do the same to him
But L's the real deal
So tell me how you feel
Tell me one of your secrets
I keep my lips sealed

[Teairra Mari:]
That's for me to know
And you to find out

[LL Cool J:]
Long as we both now
What we talkin bout

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J:] What you wanna do
[Teairra Mari:] Preserve the sexy
[Till the end]

. . .

What You Want

[No lyrics]

. . .


[LL Cool J]
Just starin at these four walls closin
In on me, feelin like time's frozen
Fadin in and out, noddin and dozin
Guilt tearin up my brain like erosion
What I did to you was wrong I admit it
I regret that I did it like a junkie when he's jonzin
All alone in what used to be a home
But you packed up our joy in that bag you put your clothes in
The voicemail that you left me was scoldin
Hot enough to burn a hole in a cauldron
Cause it was all true, that's why we all through
Now your girl's pickin up the cell when I call you
Talkin slick like she ain't here
She don't want you no more, punk disappear - click
I need to hit her with a brick
But that'll only lead me to a worse predicament
I hope your girlfriend ain't got you on a liquor binge
With her bitter attitude just cause she's sick of men
But I'ma keep on callin, fightin 'til the end
On my knees 'til they bleed, to prove my love again

[Chorus: Ryan Toby]
I sit in front of yo' crib in the pourin rain
Whylin out screamin yo' name
And keepin ringin yo' bell 'til you mad as hell
And call the po'-po', I ain't afraid (yeah, yeah)
You can get yo' folks and yo' cousins and them
And try to run me off yo' blocka (uh-huh)
But I ain't scared, I ain't goin nowhere
And I ain't stoppin 'til I gotcha
To show you I changed shawty

[LL Cool J]
I seen you at the movies with some tall cat
So I bust his headlights with a ball bat
When I was with you he would give me dap and all that
Now you in his arms in the mall, what you call that?
That's what I get for creepin and crawlin
Every other weekend gone until the mornin
Sneakin out to my dirt, dead wrong
Comin back past dawn with the guilty mask on
And I never counted the cost, took heed to warnings
Try to hurt a rose you get pricked by a thorn
And it don't feel nice, when you wake up nights
Shakin in cold sweats and your whole life's a wreck
That was the old me, the one I still regret
The one you couldn't respect, the one you should forget
But I'ma keep on callin, fightin 'til the end
On my knees 'til they bleed, to prove my love again

[Chorus]

[Ryan Toby + (LL)]
To show you I changed shawty
I really did change shawty (I'M TELLIN YOU I'VE CHANGED)
I wanna show you I changed shawty
(I STILL LOVE YOU!) [cars peel]

[LL Cool J]
I don't care if the cops got me surrounded
SWAT teams whatever, tell 'em to send the hounds in
My mind's in an altered state
Like I'm headed for a wall, top speed, foot off the brake
I make a fool of myself, girl whatever it takes
I already played the fool when I let you escape
You're as, good as it gets, your friendship your sex
Everything about you and yours connects
From your, beautiful smile to the scent of your skin
The sheets smell different, this is not livin
It feels like dyin, God knows I'm tryin
Ain't no sight sadder than a grown man cryin
Please find it in your heart to forgive me
Realize only God can convict me
We all make mistakes, so have you
If God show mercy on me, then you should too

[Chorus]

[Ryan Toby + (LL)]
To show you I changed shawty
I really did change shawty (I'M TELLIN YOU I'VE CHANGED)
I wanna show you I changed shawty
(I STILL LOVE YOU!) OWW!
(I'M TELLIN YOU I'VE CHANGED)

[LL Cool J:]
Uhh, yeah (si papi.. uhh, uh-huh)
Uh-huh (I see you papi, si)

I was in Madrid yo
Had this hot club shootin my video
They was burnin up the floor to that reggaeton
Start to bailando soon as they put the record on
I was sweatin like a bullfighting matador
It was the sexiest scene that I ever saw
(La fiesta, tu mi a fuego)
But I was still cool in my light blue Kangol
I met this girl, she was off the chain yo
Cooley head model from San Diego
Father was from Trinidad, Tobago
Mother was from Rio, de Janeiro
She said please don't think I'm crazy
But I've been in love with you since the 80's
{?} cansando baby
Have you ever been with a latin lady

[Chorus:]
Uhh, she said there's one thing you should know
(Just here to find to numero uno)
Uh-huh (and I'll do anything to prove it)
(If I can get wit'cha)
Uhh, she said there's one thing you should know
(Just here to find to numero uno)
Uh-huh (and it's on, one shot will do it)
(If I can get wit'cha)

[LL Cool J:]
She said I wanna get wit'cha
I'm talkin more than an autograph and picture
(Tu quiere, benita mi casa)
I mumbled to myself, she's a monster
She said (yo no se lo que no habla)
Don't worry 'bout it lil' mama nada
The chemistry and energy was gettin hotter
This ain't like me but I feel like I gotta
She started movin near me
Whispered in my ear so I could hear more clearly
Said grab my waist and look in the mirror
Then started windin it like Shakira
All that shakin and belly dancin
I was goin under, I ain't stand a chance man
If I do this, will I love it or regret it
Tempted and I don't know where this is headed

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J:]
(Wit'cha, wit'cha) Uhh (uhh)
Yeah (si papi, uhh)
(If I can get wit'cha)
(Si papi, si) Uh-huh
(Papi) If I can't get wit'cha

Then she kept beggin sayin let's go
Pullin on my arm, wouldn't let go
Rubbin my face, kissin my neck slow
When we do it say hablando como {?}
She said (ooh papi te quiero mucho)
(I love you better than any woman you know)
Just then my lady hit my cell phone
I'll let y'all figure out the rest yo

[Chorus]

. . .

Uhh, she said there's one thing you should know
(Just here to find to numero uno)
Uh-huh (and I'll do anything to prove it)
(If I can get wit'cha)
Uhh, she said there's one thing you should know
(Just here to find to numero uno)
Uh-huh (and it's on, one shot will do it)
(If I can get wit'cha)

[LL Cool J]
She said I wanna get wit'cha
I'm talkin more than an autograph and picture
(Tu quiere, benita mi casa)
I mumbled to myself, she's a monster
She said (yo no se lo que no habla)
Don't worry 'bout it lil' mama nada
The chemistry and energy was gettin hotter
This ain't like me but I feel like I gotta
She started movin near me
Whispered in my ear so I could hear more clearly
Said grab my waist and look in the mirror
Then started windin it like Shakira
All that shakin and belly dancin
I was goin under, I ain't stand a chance man
If I do this, will I love it or regret it
Tempted and I don't know where this is headed

[Chorus]

[LL Cool J]
(Wit'cha, wit'cha) Uhh (uhh)
Yeah (si papi, uhh)
(If I can get wit'cha)
(Si papi, si) Uh-huh
(Papi) If I can't get wit'cha

Then she kept beggin sayin let's go
Pullin on my arm, wouldn't let go
Rubbin my face, kissin my neck slow
When we do it say hablando como {?}
She said (ooh papi te quiero mucho)
(I love you better than any woman you know)
Just then my lady hit my cell phone
I'll let y'all figure out the rest yo

[Chorus]

(feat. Mary Mary)

[Mary Mary:]
I know the Lord, will make a way
He will make a way, yessssssss he will
Yessssss, he willlllll

Ohhh, I do believe that we will make it
Yeahhh, yeahhh, yeahhh, yeahhhh

[LL Cool J:]
Uhh uhh
I was at rock bottom, my whole life was mo' problems
Reincarnation of a slave pickin cotton
Stress beamin down like the sun I felt rotten
To the core, was at war, cause the enemy is plottin
I hear him knockin, sayin that we got him
Hot like solar, he wanna burn my soul up
World on my shoulders but I roll back ya boulders
Words have a funny way of comin back to scold ya
Watch what come out of your mouth, you crack a molar
I tried to told ya, hehehe
Enemies gunnin, true believers ain't runnin
Or duckin, we ain't scared of nuttin, ya feel me?
They wanna test me and press my buttons, oh really?
Allow Uncle L to hip y'all to somethin, uhh, uhh
Yeah, uhh, check it out
There's a living power, make a man out a coward
Rebuild your strength like the new Trade Towers
I thought that I was over, my life got devoured
Now I'm on top and I pray for all the doubters
Time to shout it, sing it louder

[Chorus - Mary Mary:]
Yeahhhhh, we're gonna make it
We're gonna make it (we're gonna make it)
Thank God we made it (yeahhhhhhhhhhh)
And I mean it, yeah yeah, oh yeah

[LL Cool J:]
I was feelin like my whole world was spinnin and spillin
On the ground and that God wasn't willin
It seemed like the only ones ballin was the villains
Dollar signs in they eyes, lyin to our chill'un
I wanna kill 'em, I'd rather God hit 'em
They sellin venom and we buyin it like denim
These world wide webs they weave, we caught in 'em
Old folks is dyin and CEO's skimmin
The bat's in your hand and this is the 9th inning
Keep your eyes on the ball when you swingin
Don't be confused, don't be fooled by the wind-up
Start switchin your position, make your mind up
Pull your bootstraps tight, get your grind up
Get your life lined up before time's up
Yo, yo, you know what?
Take ten percent of that, dough you tryin to stack
Send it up to God, I guarantee he send it back
Multiply it by a hundred times, y'all remember that
That's just a little jewel to get the monkey off your back
Uhh, yeah, sing it out now

[Chorus with ad libs]

[LL Cool J:]
In the darkest valley, through the loneliest alley
Never give up, press on through the storm
Weepin man fall, for the night seem long
But if you stand strong joy come within the morn'
And it goes, on and on and on and on and on and-ah
I know it feels like your back's to the wall
Who's sittin in the crib, and you don't know who to call
(Jesus!) Hangin on a tight rope, fingers slippin off
But you ain't by yourself dawg, we all been lost
Stay on your course, carry your cross
Ain't no stoppin, got to keep it poppin
You want it, you can get it, believe me the king did it
Nothin gonna hold you back, there's no limits
I'm sent to bring truth to rap, not gimmicks
And I'm not finished, man listen
Here's the moral to the thesis, y'all cats need Jesus
He put your life back together, pick up the pieces
Word to the masses, I heard God asked us
For less fake rappers, and more real pastors
Uh-huh, uh-huh, so hereafter

[Chorus 2x with ad libs]

[Mary Mary + (LL):]
We made it, we made it
Through the storm and rain, yeahhhhhhh
You can make it, yes you can
You can make it, you got me
I know you can, I know you can
I know you can, yessssss, yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I do believe we'll make it (Hallelujah!)
(Glory! Glory!)

. . .


Mmmm mmm yeah
Do do do do do do do-do
Ohh Yeah

Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
Cuz right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Cuz you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger then this
(enough is enough)
No more walkin round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Cryin over you

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

Gotta fix that calender I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be

That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Dont make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
Let it go
Turning off the radio

Cuz I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishin you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
Why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
Why can't I turn off the radio?
