Two other girls walked into the room and stood on either side of Mercedes, who was now standing front and center.
"I got my cousins to help me with this assignment. We chose to do 3LW songs." Mercedes said, already thinking she was going to top the girls' performance. "Our first song is 'Playa Gon' Play'."
The hit maker
The playas gon' play
Them haters gonna hate
Them callers gonna call
Them ballers gonna ball
(Let 'em know)
I, I don't mind (ha)

"Our next song is 'No More'."

"Our last song is 'Ghetto Love and Heartbreak'."
Oooh
Oooh
Yeah
It's been almost a year since we first met
and that's the day that I'll never forget
Got me all caught up in your web
but a new
cause your the type of guy that girls like to sweat
just so they can see how far they'll get
maybe take a ride up in your 6
not ever in that picture could I fit
Ghetto love and heartbreak
is always a mistake
trust your heart to someone
when you think your in love, cause you thinkg your in love
they gon' do their own thing
ghetto thoughts they can't change
so don't give your heart away
cause you're gonna get hurt, when you think you're in love
As the days went on I knew
I knew that you were more then sexy more than cute
had a little look inside your eyes
that no girl could ever say no to
much personality
a living game for every girl you see
know just what to say and how to please
but there's no room there for me
Ghetto love and heartbreak
is always a mistake
trust your heart to someone
when you think your in love, cause you thinkg your in love
they gon' do their own thing
ghetto thoughts they can't change
so don't give your heart away
cause you're gonna get hurt, when you think you're in love
I tried so hard to believe that you only wanted me
but that was just my fantasy
and you let me down
playin around like you were feeling me
but you were busy doing your thing
Ghetto love and heartbreak
is always a mistake
trust your heart to someone
when you think your in love, cause you thinkg your in love
they gon' do their own thing
ghetto thoughts they can't change
so don't give your heart away
cause you're gonna get hurt, when you think you're in love
Ghetto love and heartbreak
is always a mistake
trust your heart to someone
when you think your in love, cause you thinkg your in love
they gon' do their own thing
ghetto thoughts they can't change
so don't give your heart away
cause you're gonna get hurt, when you think you're in love
think your in love
then tell me now
whats really up
if you think I'm the one
I need to know
Don't let me down
Mercedes thanked the two girls who helped her and awaited the chorus of praises that she was sure she would get. When only Kurt gave them to her, she looked around. Finn was wheeling Artie out of the room. Mike and Tina were dancing together, as were Matt and Quinn. Santana and Brittney were planning something in the corner. Puck and Rachel were heatedly making out. And Mr. Shuester had left the room. She fumed silently and lead Kurt out of the choir room.
