lyrics

Look out! There she goes again
keeping her posse on her toes again
with all her boys in throes of passion
she remains in action
always moving, always rushing
always racing and driving
and taunting and dashing...

Shahuda don't care.
Shahuda don't worry.
Shahuda don't mind.
Shahuda don’t hurry.
Shahuda's not
Sorry.

Oh, now she's leaning on the stoop
where some nasty boys go swoop in
and her friends all fly the coop
as she licks her ice cream scoop and
she doesn't seem to blink
if some trouble's on the way
cuz it's like it's like this every day...

Shahuda don't care.
Shahuda don't worry.
Shahuda don't bother.
Shahuda don’t hurry.
Shahuda's not
Sorry.

She doesn't cause the problems;
they happen all around.
Wherever our Shahuda goes
the world turns upside down.
One look into her eyes, beneath
her hijab, all go cray.
Just ask her why, she'll shrug
and cry, "I was drawn this way!"

Shahuda don't care.
Shahuda don't worry.
Shahuda don't bother.
Shahuda don’t hurry.
Shahuda's not
Sorry.

You know, there's gonna be a fight
one of these upcoming nights
when they will kill for the right
and... she'll sit tight
she won't care,
she'll just stare
so beware
for we won't have a prayer
'gainst the snare
of that pair
of her eyes and her hair
when unleashed - it's not fair!

Shahuda don't care.
Shahuda don't worry.
Shahuda don't mind.
Shahuda don’t hurry.
Shahuda's not
Sorry.
