Song Lyrics:

Love To A Playa (Dlala Mdlalisi) Lesson: It is a promise to a girl you are pursuing that you will not play with her heart despite your reputation because you are so in love you see a future with her. Your reputation as a player is meaningless. In fact, you’re only a player until she becomes yours. And for her to be yours you have to be an achiever, so she inspires you. For all ladies who inspire a man to be great. (Intro) Dlala Mdlalisi, Dlala Mdlalisi… haha Bathi Dlala Mdlalisi... Angikholapho... (repeatedly) (loose translation: They say Play on Playa... but I'm not there) (verse 1) When it comes to girls' hearts I'm a kleptomaniac I flow during convo, a vocal aphrodisiac I turn 'em on like a light switch Plus I'm not leaving the game until I find the right chick I mean Lady forgive me! Forgave me already? OK I'm trying to keep it clean I'm looking for radio play Look better with your top off like a Cabriolet Can I help you get it off? You got the bomb, set it off Divinity and femininity I need a witness You're looking like something they should've given me for Christmas A threat to mankind I gotta put you on my hit list Head rush when you blush changing colour like Litmus Paper Definition of a flavour I sense hostility it's intuition of a player Tell Prince Charming to wait a Sec, tell a neighbour If getting you is work it's automatic manual labour (Chorus) Bathi "Dlala Mdlalisi" mabengibona ngihamba nawe "Dlala Mdlalisi" kodwa ngeke ngidlale ngawe (4x) (Loose translation: They say “Play on Playa” when they see me walking with you “Play on Playa” but I won’t be playing with you”) (verse 2) It’s like your mind is shook You got the silent look Not Madiba but you’re off the Robben Island hook You just took a shower Your Cent’s worth a Pound, musta took a hour I’m like the Rand losing power You speak Sign Language when you move your hips Translation: take my hand and introduce our lips Dedicate a heartbeat; put your hand on my chest Squeeze my biceps Through with mind-sex You got the “Have you got a condom?” eyes I condomize When you say, “Make love to Me” I’m organised Didn’t use or have faith at all in my game Just the truth, can’t believe it’s you callin’ my name I wrote you poems, a sonnet and a rap song You loved me then, you tell me now, baby, that’s wrong I took you from my dream I can take you from your man I’m a Player ‘til I put a platinum ring on your hand (Chorus) Bathi "Dlala Mdlalisi" mabengibona ngihamba nawe "Dlala Mdlalisi" kodwa ngeke ngidlale ngawe (4x) Have you ever made love to a playa? (repeatedly, overlapping monologue) (monologue) It’s those girls, you know, you meet her and uh, she’s out of your league… You got game, you kinda get lucky but you know deep down you gotta… step your game up, improve yourself…You know? It’s a true story. Everything I write is a true story… I just had to step it up and be something special in case I met someone of her calibre... I kinda have you know; I’m never gonna play her… I broke a couple of hearts ‘cause of her, hahaha, waiting for her to come back, you know. It's all good though... Have you ever made love to a player?
