    Story Behind the Song
    "I had acquired a very primitive sampler in 1990 and decided to import some of its capabilities into my compositions. I had envisioned this song kinda like a soundtrack to a new kung fu movie but it just wasn't working, so I just shelved it until 1999, when it took on a new persona of rap mixed with rock. Gravy anyone?" - Nigel Brennan

    Lyrics
    That's what U get!

    So many times I try to be the gentleman
    Open doors for you
    This kind of ride you best be strapped in
    Because some hoochie mamas you just can't trust
    You give them diamonds and they give you rust

    Amongst the fine print there must be a typo
    This girl be sayin' I remind her of a psycho boyfriend from way back in the day
    Somewhere up above I can hear them say
    That's what U get
    For being a nice guy
    That's what U get
    For being a chump
    That's what U get

    Someone put a curse on you
    It's not true!
    You'll have girl trouble your whole life through
    Who in the fuck are you anyway?
    What's your next plan of attack?
    How the hell should I know?
    Get a girl for us, Nigel, or we'll be back
    Damn! Pushy broads or somethin'?

    That's what I get for an entourage
    Wierd science mixed with Playboys in my parents garage
    You can't knock me for creativity
    When you put Santa's sleigh on top of the Nativity
    It's kind of funny though
    Looking back on it
    For those of you who're groovin'
    I know a straighter bit
    Thanks DJ for bringin' me back

    Have you looked up in the stars?
    What for?
    When you don't get yours, we still got ours
    Aw gee, thanks!
    In the backseat of your cars
    What? What the hell are you doin' in my car?
    Women are from Venus and men from Mars

    Now look here, quiet on the set
    I'm trying to do a song
    Oh yeah? Well, what's it called?
    It's called That's what U get!

    I got new for you
    You might want to listen up
    I was skating on thin ice
    But now I'm back for a Stanley Cup
    No instant karma is gonna bring me down
    Destiny for two
    The next stop is Poom Poom Town!

    Have you got a girl?
    Have you got a girl, Nigel?
    What the hell is it to you anyway, bitch?
    Have you got a girl--
    Goddamn! Ooh!
    That's what U get

    Just goes to show ya
    This is one MC you don't want to shaq fu with
    We out!
    That's what U get!
