Jazmine Sullivan - Stanley Lyrics

This album was ok but jasmine is a soul singer and a lot of these songs sound pop. It just doesn’t bring it out the full strength of her voice. This song in particular is wack in my personal opinion

Love this! ☮️💓🤘

It hurts how underrated she is this whole album needs a Grammy Award ASAP✓
💯🔥

💯💯💯

This gives me Kelis vibes

Zendaya put me on to this song🔥

I'm in the kitchen making the dinner that I know you like
And I've been cleaning this damn house all day and all night
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner
Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful) You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a thing
I try to dress up and look like something just to turn you on
I'm spending money I don't got because you used to like my hair red my nails done
But you don't pay me no attention Stanley
I'm needing your attention baby
Just show me some appreciation
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner
Sometimes you make me feel special, Stanley
I really shouldn't have to tell you baby
This isn't how you treat a lady
Don't you know you got a winner?
I don't know why I waste my time
When you don't care how hard I try to make you smile
(If you ain't careful) You gone lose a good thing
You gone lose a thing
I try so hard to be good to you, Stanley
But why don't you care and you take me for granted?
You know I love you but I'm getting tired
You might get burned cause you're playing with fire (Fire)
All you do is go to the bar
Worrying 'bout that rusty car
Mess around you're gonna lose my heart
And another man is gonna do your part

“Maybe take a [email protected]*%h to dinner!”

most underrated album of 2015

I was looking for "Attention"😅

Vogue Zzdown!!!!

The bass line is everything.

This should have been the first single followed by the other from this album

THIS ENTIRE ALBUM IS STRAIGHT ECSTASY!

+Nayab Ash zendaya_96

Brianna Johnson today also lol

Huh, Zendaya was also jamming to this again a couple days ago😂

She not bigger cuz she has not sold out yet to get to the top it's not about talent anymore , it about if you seal your should or not ,she comes from a religious family so I hope she got some morels .smh it sad how the music industry is now so sad .,entertainment in general is messed up .

i wish she did 3's company theme music video with this....i would dieeee <3 or like a go-go theme. itd be so cute

Great treadmill tune!!!

This song is everything honey'

Heard this in Sephora, shazamed it right away lol

I think this album is better then 4

wtf is wrong with the industry, with a artist like this she's a ghost 😢 that's all I can do. I will pay top dollar to see her no hear her

Raja brought me here, and now I'm obsessed.

SAAAMMEEE

Saw Raja perform this here in LB last night and I had to find this song!

I need a 12 minute extended mix RIGHT NOW!

Toro Y Moi inspired beat definitely

Yes Sylvester indeed check out the song You make me feel!!That's what I get from this song!! #Fav!!

knice1895 i said it right the fist time. last time i checked that was my opinion.

I do some serious car dancing to this song!!!

annettemint I'm working out to it now lol

Lmao Same here.

Best workout song ever

I'm pretty sure 7000 of these views is me....I just found this song 3 days ago

I wonder why black pple ain't that successful in the pop genre, this woulda been a big hit if she wasn't so underrated

I don't understand it either. Tiffany Evans sings circles around Ariana and jasmine sings circles around Adele...

Exactly

+Dar B. word

kimberly rose because they don’t want to give us the recognition we deserve...

Because society doesn't really like us but they love our culture tho 😒😴

Can't get enough of this song!!

I love her singing

Take a bitch to Dinner lol

A person can work up an appetite after cleaning :)

"Maybe take a bitch to dinner" lol.

This is fucking dope and on point sick LOVE this my neck already aching from head buddin to the beat

I love this song. It's so true.

My abs cannot take nan-nother pelvic thrust to this song!
Good Lordt! Somebody calll 9-1-2 I'm going outta my mind!

@Jesus Walks hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahah

You're a mess!! I can't stay still either, this is a good Saturday morning cleaning song! lol

Jesus Walks lol

Her and Frank Ocean need to do something together, really sounds like a female version of him 
She is just too amazing
Needs more recognition #teamjazzy

I would die if that ever happened omg ok not literally die but metaphorically speaking lol. I love them both.

Misheard lyrics:
If you ain't careful,
You gonna lose a kidney!!!

😂😂

This is old school skating rink music.

Watch Ciscero's Good to Know

Reminds me of Kelis back in the day

@LadyDeVonne33​ that would be too cute... She might do a pin up video like everybody else but then again maybe she will think out the boxes

@LadyDeVonne33 I just both this cd two days ago...Stanley is my favorite track and the first thing that came to mind was Stanley and Helen Roper from 3s Company. She should make a really cute video for this..
