There It Is
"There It Is" is a song by R&B singer Ginuwine. It was the lead single for his third album The Life. It peaked inside the Top 20 on the R&B chart but on the lower register of the Hot 100 pop chart. Due to the content of the song (the use of the word "shit" in the bridge and chorus), a clean version tailor-made for radio play although only the original content was released on the album. The narrator describes how he works hard and pays the bills to provide a lifestyle for his live-in lover who does not have a job, but she does not show appreciation for what he does.

Lyrics
I put it down from 9 to 5 so you should know,know,know
(You know what else?)
And I bust my ass so you can live good,live good,live good
Yes I do, girl
Now all I want you to do is what you should,should
There it is
See there it is (there it is baby)
That ungrateful sh*t (That ungrateful sh*t)
There you go again, complanin`
And what your aim is
I don`t know but I`m...
(Chorus)
I`m not doing this sh*t for nothing (No! I ain`t No!)
I pay the car note, light bill, house note
(house note)
What you think, this sh*t`s for nothing?(what you think this is?)
You`re not workin` um,um
So what more you want? (What more you want?)
Listen...
I do my best to give you what you need,need,need
It seems that
The harder that I work,the less you see,see,see
Ooh baby (ooh baby)
Who wouldn`t want the life you lead,lead,lead
Think about it
Living the good life, yeah
Practically scott-free, oh oh oh oh yeah
See there it is (there it is, there it is)
That ungrateful sh*t (you see what I`m talkin` `bout)
There you go again, bein` worse, um yeah
Like you earned somethin` round here
But let`s be clear
(Chorus)
I`m not doing this sh*t for nothing(NO)
I pay the car note, light bill, house note, Do you hear what I`m sayin
What you think, this sh*t`s for nothing?(You)
You`re not workin`(You)
So what more you want? What more do you want baby?
(Bridge)
You got two seconds, pack your sh*t and get on outta here
Gotta go, gotta go baby
You don`t appreciate what a man like me is about
No you don`t
And you know I`m workin` 9 to 5
Workin` hard everyday baby (listen)
Even put my name (put my name)
Even signed my name (signed my name)
Down for some overtime, yeah
See there you go (there you go, there you go)
Tryin` to run the show
Ooh would you pay my car note?
(Pay my car note?)
Pay my light bill?
(Pay my light bill?)
Pay my Due`s? NO,NO,NO NO
(Chorus in background)
(Ginuwine)
No,No,No,No,No,No
Do you hear what I`m saying baby?
What you think this is?
What more do you want?
how much more do you need?
all your friends say I`m a fool cause I do what I do
I pay the car note yeah,
What do you think this is?
Your not working baby,
Who wouldn`t want the life you live baby? IF
you don`t like it pack your bags and go
get on outta here.
