E
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Am
Tell me, mirror, what is wrong?
A A
Can it be my de la clothes
Am
Or is it just my de la song?
E
What I do ain't make-beleive
A
People say I sit and try
A
But whan it comes to being de la
N.C.
It's just me myself and I
[Chorus-Dove]

A E
Now you tease my plug one style
E
And my plug one spectacles
Am E
You say plug one and two are hippies
Am
No, we're not, that's pure plug bull
E
Always pushing that we've formed an image
Am
There's no need to lie
E
When it comes to being plug one
It's just me myself and I

E
Proud, I'm proud of what I am
E
Poems I speak are plug two type
E
Please oh please let plug two be
E
Himself, not what you read or write
E
Right is wrong when hype is written
A
On the soul, de la that is,
E
Style is surely our own thing
E
Not the false disguise of showbiz
E
De la soul is from the soul
Am
And this fact I can't deny
A
Strictly from the dan called stuckie
N.C.
And from me myself and I
[Chorus-Dove]
E C Am
Ooh, O, O, O

E
Glory, glory hallelu
A
Glory for plugs one and two
E
But that glory's been denied
E
By kizids and dookie eyes
E
People think they this my person
E
By stating I'm darkly pack
E
I know this so I point at q-tip
E
And he states, 'black is black'
E
Mirror mirror on the wall,
D Am
Shovel chestnuts in my path
E
Please keep on up with the nuts
A
So I don't get in aftermath
A
But if I do I'll calmly punch them
A
In the fourth day of july
A
'cause they tried to mess with, Third degree,
N.C.
that's me myself and I
