VERSE 1 : A / / E7
Friday night I trashed your party Saturday I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
Bm G E A
I was only having fun wasn't hurting anyone
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change
VERSE 2 I was stranded in the combat zone, I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive, but I made it home alive
So you said that only proves that I'm insane
Chorus:
You may be right
A ---------------2--2--4--2-------------------------------------|
E ---0--0--3--4--------------0----------------------------------|

I may be crazy
D ---------------2--2--4--2-------------------------------------|

E D F#m7
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
(line again) E A
Turn off the light Don't try to save me
D E A
You may be wrong for all I know but you may be right
VERSE 3 Oh, remember how I found you there Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you smiled
You were lonely for a man, I said Take me as I am
'Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while
Verse 4 Now think of all the years you tried to Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If I'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn't want me any other way

Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are

Ooh yeah, I want it allMm, you got me feelin' like

I wanna be that guy, I wanna kiss your eyes /
I wanna drink that smile, I wanna feel like I'm /
Like my soul's on fire, I wanna stay up all day and all night /

Ooh, I love it when you do it like that
And when you're close up, give me the shivers
Oh baby, you wanna dance 'til the sunlight cracks
And when they say the party's over, then we'll bring it right back
Verse 2:
Into the car / On the backseat in the moonlit dark
Wrap me up between your legs and arms /
Ooh, I can't get enough
You know you could tear me apart (ooh) /
Put me back together and take my heart
I never thought that I could love this hard /
Ooh, I can't get enough
Mm, you got me feeling like

Let's go back in time
When seeing your ID on mine
Made me crazy
Ooh baby I'm saying
Let's go back there
Let's take it there
I'm talking bout
Back in time
When you wanted to know my every move
Tired to keep it smooth
Keepin' up with me
You drove me crazy ohh baby
Let's go back there
Let's take it there
When you
Didn't know me
Didn't need me
Want to touch me
Couldn't leave me
I couldn't know how
Far it would go
I couldn't know if
This was for sure
We just could not
We just could not get enough of it baby, let's go
[Chorus-]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go
Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love
Let's go back in time
When our kiss was brand new
An adventure not perfected
A little hesitant
Let's go back there
Let's take it there
Take it back in time
When forever was a minute, and eternity was a second
I'm stressing that we have to go back there
Let's take it there.
When you
Didn't know me
Didn't need me
Want to touch me
Couldn't leave me
I couldn't know how
Far it would go
I couldn't know if
This was for sure
We just could not
We just could not get enough of it baby, let's go
[Chorus-]

Intro-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
And the lights are on
And they wanna show oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 1-
Yeah, uh
A fresh cool young Lu'
Tryna' catch his microphone check 2, 1, 2
Wanna' believe my own hype but it's too untrue
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new?
Well ya' name ain't on the guest list, who brung you?
YOU! The more famous person you come through
And the sexy lady next to you, you come too
And then it hit me
Standin' outside of heaven waitin' for god to come and get me
I'm too uncouth
Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe
Too much of a new comer and too un-cool
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit' it well
Tho I need holiday like lady who sung Blue
Go back, whatever you did you undo
Heavy as heaven
The devil on me, two ton's too
Chorus-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the camera's is here
And the microphone's
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 2-
And ya' better wear ya' shaaades
The spotlights here can burn holes through the staaage
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
Where the dinosaurs laid
Then out through shinin', nearly miss the airliners
Magnified times five, 'less its pointed at the ryhmer
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaaaze
Now that's important to say
'Cause even with all that most of us don't want it to faaade
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to staaay
Like the governor called and he told him to waaait
Un-strap him from the chair and put him back in his caaage
The audience ain't phased
And they ain't gon' clap and they ain't gon' praise
They want everything back that they've paid
'Cause they've been waitin' since ten to see the lights get dim
[Chorus]
Verse 3-
So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
'Cause I've been standin' in this line for like five whole days
Me and security ain't getting' along
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
And the roses are grown, M&Ms are yellow
And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
One for you and one for your sister
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
Every songs her favorite song and mics don't feedback
All the reviewers say You need to go and see that
And everybody claps 'cause everybody is pleased
And then they all take the stage and start performin' for me
Like, ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha

Verse 1: Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
Girl I'm in love with you /
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase. /
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love /
It seems like we argue every day.
I know I misbehave and you made your mistakes and
We both still got room left to grow.
And though love sometimes hurt, I still put you first
and we'll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow.
[Chorus]
We're Just Ordinary People / We don't know which way 2 go
Cause we're Ordinary People /maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie naw /
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing every day. /
Sometimes it's heaven sent then we,
head back to hell again
We kiss, then we make up all the way.
I hang up, you call We rise and we fall
And we feel like just like walking away.
As our love advances We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy I still want you to stay...
[Chorus]
[Bridge] Bbm Db/Eb
Maybe we'll live and learn, maybe we'll crash and burn
Fmaj7
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave, maybe you'll return
Bbm Db/Eb
Maybe another fight, maybe we won't survive
Fmaj7
Maybe we'll grow, we never know, baby you and I

She is running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
F C Dm Bb
She is trying but the canyon's ever widening in the depths of her cold heart
C F Bb
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
C F
She's another two years older

And she's three more steps behind
Chorus
F C
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Dm Bb
Or does anybody even knows she's going down today
F
Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people
Dm Bb
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Dm Bb
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
F C Dm Bb
She is yearning for shelter and affection that she never found at home
F C Dm Bb
She is searching for a hero to ride in, to ride in and save the day
C F Bb
And in walks her prince charming and he knows just what to say
C F Bb
Momentary lapse of reason and she gives herself away
Chorus
F C
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Dm Bb
Or does anybody even knows she's going down today

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

If judgment looms under every steeple if lofty glances from lofty people

Can't see past her scarlet letter and we never even met her

Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
So I’ll taste every moment

Spread out now Rosie doctor come cut loose her momma's reins
You know playing blind man's bluff is a little baby's game
You pick up little dynamite - I'll pick up little gun
Together we're gonna go out tonight and make that highway run
Bb Am Dm
You don't have to call me lieutenant Rosie and I don't wanna be your son

The only lover I'm ever gonna need you're some sweet little girl's tongue
C11 C C11 C C11 C C 11 C (quickly)
Ah Rosie you're the one
F Bb F C F Bb F C
Dynamite's in the Belfry baby playing with the bats
Little gun's downtown in front of Woolworths trying out his attitude on the cats
Papa's on the corner - waiting for the bus
Mommas home in the window - waiting up for us
She'll be there in that chair 'till they wrestle her upstairs cause you know we
ain't gonna come
I ain't here on business baby I'm only here for fun
And Rosie you're the one
[Chorus-]
F Bb F C F Bb
Rosalita jump a little lighter - Senorita come sit by my fire
I just wanna be your lover ain't no lie - Rosalita you're my strong desire
Jack-the -rabbit and weak-knee'd-Willie you know they're gonna be there
Sloppy Sue and big-bones-Billy they'll be comin' up for air
They're gonna play some pool - skip some school
act real cool - stay out all night - it's gonna be alright
(C) Gm C Csus4 C Csus2 C
So Rosie come out tonight - oh baby come out tonight
Windows are for cheaters - chimneys for the poor
Closets are for hangers - winners use the door
So use it Rosie - that's what it's there for
(CHORUS)
C Gm
And I know your momma she don't like me 'cuz I play in a rock and roll band
Dm Am
And I know your daddy he don't dig me but he never did understand

Your poppa lowered the boom - he locked you in your room - I'm comin' to lend a
hand
Dm Am
I'm coming to liberate you - confiscate you - I want to be your man
Bb C F Am
Some day we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny

But now you're sad - your mommas mad and your

Poppa says he knows that I don't have any money (oh your)

Well tell him this is his last chance - to get his daughter in a fine romance
C11 C C11 C C11 C C11 C (quickly)
Because the record company Rosie - just gave me a big advance
And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed but the lord had mercy
My machine she's dud stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Hold on tight stay up all night Rosie I'm coming on strong
By the time we meet the morning light I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
There's a little cafe - where they play guitar all night and all day
You can hear 'em in the back room strummin'
So hold tight baby 'cuz don't you know daddy's coming

You gave me nothing at all,

Have foresight and it's real

but it's in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?

Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin
G D Em
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
C D
I sent two letters back in Autumn, you must not have got 'em
G D
There probably was a problem with the post office or somethin'
Em C D
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
G D Em
But anyway, what's been up man, how's your daughter?
C
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father

If I have a daughter, guess what I'm a call her

I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn't want him

I even got that underground s*** that you did with Skam

I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man

Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back

Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance,
D G Em
I ain't mad, I think it's just f***** up that you don't answer fans
C
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
D G D
You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Matthew
Em C
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
D
We waited in the blistering cold for you
G D Em
For four hours and you just said no
C
That's pretty s****y man, you're like his f***ing idol
D C Em
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
C
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like being lied to
C G D
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you
Em C
You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way
D
I never knew my father neither
G D Em
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
C
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
D G D
So when I have a s****y day, I drift away and put em on
Em C
Cause I don't really got s*** else, so that s*** helps when I'm depressed
D C
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Em C
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
D G D
Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
Em C
See everthing you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
D G D
My girlfriend's jealous, because I talk about you 24/7
Em C
But she don't know you like I know you slim, no one does
D G D
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up
Em C
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose

I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me

4TH VERSE

Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I've just been busy
D G D
You say your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?

Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that

And here's an autograph for your brother
G D Em
I wrote it on this Starter cap

C
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counseling
D G D Em
To keep your a** from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some
C
And what's this s*** about us meant to be together?
D G D Em
That type of s*** will make me not want us to meet each other
C
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
D G
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
D Em C
I hope you get to read this letter, I hope it reaches you in time
D C
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
Em C
If you relax a little, I'm glad that I inspire you, but Stan
D G D Em
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
C
I just don't want you to do some crazy s***
D G D Em
I seen this one s*** on the news a couple of weeks ago that made me sick
C
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
D G D
And had his girlfriend in his trunk and she was pregnant with his kid
Em C
And in the car they found a tape, didn't say who it was to

Darling I've been standing here just watching you all night
G
and I think I've even caught you watching me a couple times
If I don't ask I'll never know
This May sound dumb but here we go
G7
Do you believe in love at first site
Chorus 1-
F
Me neither
I'm glad that we agree
C
Believe me
That's a big relief
G
This place is awful crowded and this music is so loud
G7
Would you like to go and grab a bite to eat?
C
Me neither
(Small Solo)
C
It's nice to finally meet a girl who doesn't move too fast
G
I was only checking that's the reason that I asked
Relationships need time to grow
You and I should take this slow
G7
Darlin' tell me would you like to dance
Chorus 2 - Chords are same
Me neither
I was just being polite
Thank goodness
My feet are much too tired
I'm sure you're tired too
I can see an empty booth
Would you like to maybe sit and talk a while
Chorus 3 - Chords are same
Me neither
We'd never get along
I'm thinkin'
There's no chemistry at all
This has been a waste of time
And I'm running out of lines
Don't you think it's time for me to end this song?
(Pause for 1 Bar)
Me neither..... (SOLO)
G C Em D
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
Em C G D
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
G C Em D
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
Em C G D
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
etc
Because they'd stick up for me
Chorus-
If I were a boy
I think that I'd understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
verse 2-
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone that its broken
so they think
that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
cause I know that she'll be faithful
waiting for me to come home ( to come home)
Chorus
If I were a boy
I think that I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
when you loose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
Chorus
But your just a boy
You don't understand (and you don't understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you taken her for granted
And everything that you had got destroyed
But your just a boy…
F
Can't count the years one hand that we've been together
Dm
I need the other one to hold you
Make you feel, make you feel better

We sang along to the start of forever

INTRO- Riff **(Drum enters on 3rd; Vocals on 5th)
Restless tonight
cause i wasted the light
between both these times

it's nothing i planned
and not that i can
but you should be mine
across that line

Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don't know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she's right there in my ear
Telling me
That she wants to own me
To control me
Come closer [x3]
[Chorus]
And I just can't pull my self away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop [x4]
And i just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop [x4]
I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tounge
She's the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get the more I want
She wants to own me
Come closer
She says come closer
(Repeat Chorus)
Come Closer [x7]
I just can't stop no [x4]
(Repeat Chorus)
And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop [x5]
Come Closer

Dm A
This morn-ing, I woke up with this feel-ing,
Dm G
I didn't know how to deal-with, and so I just decided to myself
Dm
I'd hide-it-to-myself and never talk about it,
C G Dm
And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room - I think I love you!
G D
I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not

Em
Well I came upon a child of God
A7sus Em7
He was walking along the road
A7sus Em7
And I asked him Where are you going
This he told me
I'm going on down to Yasgurs farm
A7sus Em
Gonna join in a Rock `n' Roll band
A7sus Em7
Gonna camp out on the land
And set my soul free
chorus-
A7sus
We are stardust
We are golden
And we are billion year old Crabon
Em7
And we got to get ourselves
Em G A G Em
Back to the gar - den
Can I walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog
And I feel to be caught in something turning
Maybe it's the time of year or maybe it's the time of man
I don't know who I am but life is for learning
chorus-
By the time we got to Woodtsock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies above the nation
chorus-
caught in the devils bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden
G
1. A well a bless my soul
What's wrong with me?
I'm itching like a man
On a fuzzy tree.
My friends say I'm actin'
As queer as a bug
I'm in love!
I'm All Shook Up.
C D C
Uh uh huh. Mmm Yeah, Yeah.
2. My hands are shaky
And my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand
On my own two feet
Who do you thank
When you have such luck?
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. MM Yeah, yeah.
C G
Please don't ask what's on my mind
C G
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine
C G
When I'm near that girl that I love the best
C D
My heart beats so it scares me to death
3. She touched my hand
What a chill I got
Her kisses are like
A volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say
That she's my buttercup
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. Mmm Yeah, yeah.
My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this soul of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine
(repeat 3rd verse)
C
Highway run

Into the midnight sun

I'm in my penthouse half naked
I cooked this meal for you naked
So where the hell you at
Just one shot left of this drink, in this glass
Don't make me break it
I wish that you were me
So you could feel this feeling
I never broke one promise, and I know when you're not honest
Now you got me yelling that's because I'm jealous
[Hook-]
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
[Post-Hook-]
Sometimes I want to walk in your shoes
Do the type of things that I never ever do
So I take one look in the mirror and I say to myself
Baby girl you can't survive like this
[Verse 2-]
Take it one step further
Freakum dress out my closet
'Yonce fillin' out this skirt
I look damn good I ain't lost it
And I ain't missed a beat
Boy you been hanging out at tonight
I'm staying out 'til tomorrow
Dancing on them tables ain't got no cares, no sorrow
I ran into my ex
Said what up to his besties
Now we reminiscing how we used to flex in Texas
Don't be jealous
[Hook]
[Post-Hook]
[Bridge-]
And I hate you for your lies and your covers
And I hate us for making good love to each other
And I love making you jealous but don't judge me
And I know I'm being hateful but that ain't nothing
That ain't nothing
I'm just jealous
I'm just human
Don't judge me

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do

the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin
drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn

the brother who rocks so viciously
i said the age of one my life begun

at the age of three it was you and me
rockin to the sounds of the master gee
at the age of four i was on the floor
givin all the freaks what they bargained for

And you already know we gonna keep it 100

Rap Lex (8 bars)
Keep it A1 with my day onesLinking to bump Raekwon /
Older gods like pagans
We don't run with fake ones / We don't buck with ray guns /
They bring ya down and weigh tons /
You know the classic saying How you get the cake up /
Location, location, location
So we stay on the trains and making the money and play in /
Then reinvest in our legionKeep it a buck for the reup
So everytime we meet upWe got the fuel to heat up
Verse 1: Adrian
Now you could find us underground, or above it,
As we're singing a song to sing along with,
And yo the only plan we have is keep on winning,
As we keep it 100 just like the beats per minute, /
And speaking of winning yo this is just the beginning
and we don't need recognition just need the people to listen, /
I'm talking music from the soul
with a little bit of country, rap, and rock and roll let's go
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it,
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public,
You already know that we gonna keep it 100
RAP LEX (8 bars)
Queens get the money like a Nas venture capital
Juicy good and plenty all the strategies is tactical /
Don't care if you simpatio Only got the nano flow
Small and don't hold weightUsed to rob six packs /
What I call a cold caseNo killer but stone face
A true teenage dirt bagSmoked out on the burnt ends /T
ried to play the merchant but couldn't put the work in
Now I'm cooking terpenes 100 for certain
Verse 2
Yeah we gonna keep it 100,as we're keeping it real, /
And we gonna keep on performing with or without a record deal, /
Yeah,and even though I know that it's a challenge
imma try to keep my balance as I rap it in spanish, /
Y cada vez que yo rapeo adentro yo siento fuego,
Combinando el estilo caballero y callejero, /
Y te prometo que dinero no es primero pero,
Para hacer cambio, Es necesario
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it /
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public/
You already know that we gonna keep it 100

C G/B F/A G/B
Here are the lyrics-
I wish I could tie you up in my shoes
Make you feel unpretty too
I always thought I was beautiful
But what does that mean to you
Look into the mirror
Who's inside there
The one with the long hair
Same old me again today
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just tripping
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if he says so
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in a position to make me feel so
Damn unpretty
I make you feel unpretty too
Never insecure until I met you
Now I'm being stupid
I used to be so cute to me
Just a little bit skinny
Why do I look to all these things
To keep you happy
Maybe get rid of you
And then I'll get back to me
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
Keep on tripping
Chorus x2
I make you feel unpretty too
Make me feel unpretty
Oh oh, oh oh oh x4
Chorus
You can buy your hair if it won't grow (ha ha ha ha)
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Be in a position to make me feel so
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
