lyrics

As simple as it sounds / Is as simple as it ought to be / Light skin girls lack the dark skin quality / Ya don't understand? / You want an explanation? / Well let D-E-L release the frustration as I see it every single day / Light skin girls ain't satisfied unless they get their way always / Plus they act stuck up / They all add up to one great big fuck up / They try to play suck up / When they want somethin' / Then always leave a brother with nothin' / Ya think ya look better cause ya skin's a little bit lighter? / You're thinkin' you're my type / Like I was a typewriter?
No, ya think ya all of that and all of this / But you ain't really shit / Without a makeup kit / See, ya might be light / But ya ugly to me / Black is beautiful / To me, that's beauty.

Chorus (Repeat 2x)

Dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't better than dark skin
Ice Cube - I disagree homeboy

Girl Talking...

Now lets get to the problems / And see if there's a way to solve them / Problem #1, has got to be the attitude which is usually vain, selfish and rude / Personality, with her nose stuck up / So don't try talkin' to her or walkin' with her / To class cause it's out of the question / cause you bein' dark is the wrong complexion for her, / She wish she was light, though / I mean lighter than light or as close to white as possible / But I fight to stay a brother / You see, green and dark skin sisters are the color / This don't apply to all the girls with light skin / Just the ones with their heads up their rear end / Cause if ya did, static would occur / Dark skin cuties is what I prefer / Now, look at her / Her vision is a blur / Cause contact lenses only let ya see Benzes / Plus she would fuss and cuss if I tried to talk to her / Cause I'm a man who rides the bus / I get frustrated / Well, lets say I used to / Now a dark & lovely is who I give juice to / So come on, step to Del if ya with this / This is the facts, so brothers don't forget this.

Chorus (Repeat 2x)

Dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't better than dark skin
Ice Cube - I disagree homeboy

Guy talking...

I can't understand you light skin wenches / Ya think ya all that cause ya have long extensions? / Your hair was natural / Now ya got played out braids / You woulda looked better with a fade / Dark skin girls are so fly, so honest, so sweet / That's the type of girl I wanna meet complete, / Not phony or a fake like you are see, Del is bolder / I tap you on the shoulder and say, 'Hey lighty could you tap that sister for me?' / But you love Mr. Loveable / So you'll just ignore me / So find another tip that you can hop upon / To get with me ya need some sun and some Coppertone / You'll take a white boyfriend before a black one / That's why Del has to stand and attack one / Next time you see a girl darker than you / No disrespect when you met her, cause the girl looked better than you.

Chorus

Dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't better than dark skin
Ice Cube - Nah, Nah
Dark skin girls are better than light skin, light skin girls ain't better than dark skin
Ice Cube - I disagree homeboy
