Timothy Where You Been Lyrics - Jet

Timothy, I took your place (I took your place) 

Timothy, cause such a waste (cause such a waste) 

Timothy, we found your spaceship 

Timothy, it's the farthest you've ever flown-own-own 

Own-own-own-own-own 

Hey! Put your lighters up 

Put your lighters up y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all 

Y'all put your lighters up 

This the Timothy song if you don't know about me 

Yeah they call me Tim, V-A's phenomenon 

I kill 'em all winter, until the summer come 

From just another name, all the way to number one 

And I'm simply the best when it's all said and done 

Remember when me and Magoo was tryin to make a mill'? 

Well we did and years later we got it still 

Gave you my bio, "Under Construction 1 and 2" 

Hundred percent, Ginuwine, that was from me to you 

I'm makin moves while they ridicule 

I'm like a warm summer breeze in the swimmin pool - I'm cool 

I never kept it basic, I been so many places 

Been gettin money since them honies had them small faces 

So many little me's, I can hear small traces 

But I just ignore it, cause I'm too big for it 

And I can hear 'em screamin {*echoes*} 

[Chorus] 

Timothy, where have you been? 

It's not what it seems but it is 

Timothy, where have you been? 

She cried in the kitchen to let you go 

Timothy, where have you been? 

I been in Athens, Georgia by way of Bubba Sparxxx 

When the +Nights+ were +Bright+ and all the +Days+ was +Dark+ 

But now they all bright, everything is all right 

If you assume my life is wonderful then y'all right 

I got a bad wife, three beautiful kids 

I make the world dance, yeah look what I done did 

Hits for Jay-Z, Nelly Furtado 

Catch up, y'all slow, escargot 

Nelly did fourteen mill', where's Fargo? 

I brought a airplane, fuck I need a car fo'? 

Ask Justin Timberlake is Timbaland great? 

Y'all gotta deal with me, no handshake 

Stand up nigga, rather have a stand off 

With the law before I let 'em say I ran off 

And I can hear 'em screamin' 

[Chorus] 

Ay, some say I went away but really I never left 

They wonder where I been, but they can never guess 

I been around the world here to the other side 

And I successfully achieved what all those others tried 

Carry my city on my back like a crucifix 

For more than a decade cause I can do this shit 

A lot of people want my spot but I don't hesitate 

The track label my legacy won't appreciate 

I stand strong, everything I put my hands on 

Me and Mr. I be, cause ain't no I in team 

Cause I can hear 'em sayin' 

[Chorus] 

Timothy, where have you been? 

She cried in the kitchen to let you go 

Where have you been? 

Timothy, where have you been?
