5.0 / 5
Song updated, review now!
What's up, girl?
He stood me up again.
Again? Mmmm, hmmm.
Well, what is up with this guy?
I mean, don't you really like him that much?
Yes honey, I do love him. He is fine.
He does a lot of nice things for me.
I know he used to do nice stuff for you, but what has he done for you lately?

Uh.
Uh.
Uh.

Used to be a time when you would pamper me.
Used to brag about it all the time.
Your friends seem to think that you're so peachy keen,
But my friends say neglect is on your mind.
Who's right?

(Mmmm.) What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
(Mmmm.) What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah. Mmmm.

Used to go to dinner almost every night
Dancing till I thought I'd lose my breath.
Ahhh.
Now it seems your dancing feet are always on my couch.
Good thing I cook or else we'd starve to death.
Ain't that a shame?

(Mmmm.) What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
(Mmmm.) What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah. Mmmm.

I never ask for more than I deserve.
You know it's the truth.
You seem to think you're God's gift to deserve.
I'm telling you no way.

You ought to be thankful for the little things,
But little things are all you seem to give. (Mmmm.)
You're always putting off what we can do today.
Soap opera says you got one life to live.
Who's right? Who's wrong?
I know that's right.

What have you done for me lately? (Oooh, oooh, yeah.)
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
(Mmmm, mmmm.) What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
Yeah, what have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.

Get with it. Uh.
Honey, if I'm fine,
What have you done for me lately?

What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah. Mmmm.
What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah. Mmmm.

(Piano solo)

No, oh, oh.
No, oh, oh.

Da, di, da, di. Da, di, da, di, da.

(Instrumental break)

Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey, hey.
Hey, eh, hey.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey, hey.
Hey, eh, hey.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.

What have you done for me lately?
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
What have you done for me lately?
(Di, da. Di, da, di, da.) Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
(Da, di, da, di, da.) What have you done for me lately?
(Di, da, di, da, di, da. Da, da, di, da, di, da.) Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, yeah.
This is wild, I swear. (What have you done for me lately?)
(lately, lately, lately, lately, lately, lately?)
