Belly Button
0MR. LUNT
Baby, I know your eyes see right through my disguise
ALL
And no one can deny
MR. LUNT
Maybe that I’m the one whose love is no surprise
ALL
And he can’t tell you no lie
MR. LUNT
But there’s a secret I’ve been hidin’ I can’t keep it no more
ALL
There’s this thing about himself he’s never told you before.
Baby, he need to tell you something
MR. LUNT
I don’t got a belly button
Oh I need to tell you something
ALL
Can you figure it out
He don’t got a belly button
ALL
Belly button no, oh no no
MR. LUNT
Baby, please don’t squeal, just tell me how you feel
ALL
‘Cause his love is for real
MR. LUNT
And if you went away, my heart would never heal
ALL
So to you he appeals
MR. LUNT
There’s something missing in my middle and it’s hard to ignore
ALL
There’s this thing about himself he’s never told you before
Baby, he need to tell you something
MR. LUNT
I don’t got a belly button
Oh I need to tell you something
ALL
Can you figure it out
He don’t got a belly button
Belly button no, oh no no
KHALIL
Belly button!
ALL
Uh, uh
KHALIL
Belly button!
ALL
Uh, uh

You say your belly button’s missing, there’s no reason for alarm
It’s a common thing for gourds, it won’t do you any harm
Your technically a fruit and with that much being said…except around your head!
You could opt for a prosthetic but of course you’d have to know
It’d be covered by insurance but not your HMO
ALL
Belly button! Uh, uh
Belly button! Uh, uh
MR. LUNT
…something absent from my midriff’s décor
ALL
There’s this thing about himself he’s never told you before
Baby, he need to tell you something
MR. LUNT
I don’t got a belly button
Oh I need to tell you something
ALL
Can you figure it out
He don’t got a belly button
Belly button no, oh no no
No belly button!
