Opposites Attract (7” Edit)

Lyrics

[Intro: Derrick Delite] I'm M.C. Kat on the rap, so mic it Here's a little story and you're sure to like it Swift and sly and I'm playin' it cool With my homegirl, Paula Abdul [Verse 1: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] Baby, it seems we never ever agree You like the movies and I like TV I take things serious and you take 'em light I go to bed early and I party all night Our friends are saying we ain't gonna last 'Cause I move slowly and baby, I'm fast I like it quiet and I love to shout But when we get together, it just all works out [Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] I take two steps forward, I take two steps back We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract [Verse 2: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] Who'd-a thought we could be lovers? She makes the bed and he steals the covers She likes it neat and he makes a mess I take it easy, baby, I get obsessed She's got the money and he's always broke I don't like cigarettes and I like to smoke Things in common? There just ain't a one! But when we get together, we have nothin' but fun [Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] I take two steps forward, I take two steps back We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract A two steps forward, a two steps back We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract [Breakdown: Paul Abdul & The Wild Pair] You know it, baby, baby [Verse 3: Derrick Delite] Nothing in common, but this trust I'm like a minus, she's like a plus One going up, one coming down But we seem to land on common ground When things go wrong we make corrections To keep things moving in the right direction Try to fight it, but I'm telling you Jack It's useless, opposites attract [Verse 4: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair] Baby, ain't it something how we lasted this long? You and me proving everyone wrong (na-na-na-na) Don't think we'll ever get our differences patched (huh) Don't really matter 'cause we're perfectly matched [Chorus: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] I take two steps forward, I'll take two steps back We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract A-two steps forward, a-two steps back We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract [Outro: Paula Abdul, The Wild Pair, Both] Two steps forward, two steps back Two steps back We come together 'cause opposites, opposites attract It ain't fiction, you know it's a fact It's a fact We come together 'cause opposites, opposites Two steps forward, two steps back A-two steps back Opposites attract We go together, we go together Two steps forward, two steps back A-two steps back
