Wordplay - Jason Mraz

I've been all around the world
I've been a new sensation
But it doesn't really matter in this g-generation
The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
And someone said that aint my scene
Cause they need the new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the record label puts me on the shelf
Up in the freezer
Gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
So I drop my top
Mix and I mingle
Is everybody ready for the single, and it goes

Ah la la la la
Now listen closely to the verse I lay
Ah la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
Ah la la la love
The wonderful thing it does because
Because I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
Yeah the Mr. A-Z
They say I'm all about the Wordplay

And it's time to get ill
I got your remedy
For those who don't remember me
Well let me introduce you to my style
I try to keep a jumble
And the lyrics never mumble
When the music's making people tongue-tied
You want a new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the people write me off
Like I'm a one hit wonder
Gotta find another way to keep from going under
Pull out the stops (pause)
Got your attention
I guess it's time again
For me to mention the Wordplay

Ah la la la la
Now listen closely to the verse I lay
Ah la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
Ah la la la love
The wonderful thing it does because
Because I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
Yeah the Mr. A-Z
They say I'm all about the Wordplay

I built the bridge across the stream of consciousness
It always seems to be a flowing
But I don't know which way my brain is going
Oh the rhyming and the timing keeps the melodies inside me
And they're climbing till I'm running out of air
Are you prepared to take a dive into the deep end of my head?
Are you listening to a single word I've said?

Ah la la la la
Listen closely to the words I say
Ah la la la la
I'm sticking to the wordplay
Ah la la la love
The wonderful thing it does because
Because I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
Yeah the Mr. A-Z
They say I'm all about the Wordplay

Ah la la la la
I'm all about the Wordplay
Ah la la la la
Sticking with the wordplay
Ah la la la love
I love the wonderful thing it does because
Because of the ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
I'm back in love
With the Mr. A-Z
They say he's all about the wordplay
