Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, what up, this is Dr. Dre
The party's goin' on
Thank God it's Friday
[Verse 2]
Buck, buck, buck, buck, booyakasha
Buck, buck, buck, buck, booyakasha
Buck, buck, buck, buck, booyakasha
Buck, buck, buck, buck, booyakasha
[Verse 3]
Keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
Keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
[Verse 4]
Hey, you, sittin' over there
You better get up, out of your chair
And work your body down
No time to funk around 'cause we gon'
Funk you right on up, so get up
Get a move on, and get your groove on
[Verse 5]
It's the D R E, the spectacular
In a party, I go for your neck, so call me Blacula
As I drain a ****'s jugular vein
And maintain to leave blood stains, so don't complain
[Verse 6]
Just chill, listen to the beats I spill
Keepin' it real enables me to make another mill'
Still, **** run up and try to kill at will
But get popped like a pimple, so call me Clearasil
[Verse 7]
I wipe **** off the face of the earth since birth
I've been a bad ****, now let me tell you what I'm worth
More than a stealth bomber, I cause drama
The enforcer, music floats like a flying saucer
[Verse 8]
Or a 747 jet, never forget
I'm that **** that keeps the hoes' panties wet
The mic gets smoked once you hear the beat kick
With grooves so funky, they come with a Speed Stick
[Verse 9]
So check the flavor that I'm bringin'
The motherfuckin' D R E
Will keep they motherfuckin' heads ringin'
[Verse 10]
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
Keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
[Verse 11]
One, two for the crew, three, four for the dough
Five for the hoes, six, seven, eight for Death Row
Mad **** about to feel the full effect of intellect
So I can collect respect, plus a check
[Verse 12]
Now I'm fin' to get into my mental
Will take care of this business, I need to attend to
'Cause my rent's due
And this rap shit's my meal ticket
So you goddamn right, I'ma kick it or get evicted
[Verse 13]
I bring terror like Stephen King, a black Casanova
Runnin' **** over like Christine
When I rock the spot with the flavor I got
I get plenty of ass, so call me an astronaut
[Verse 14]
As I blast past another ****'s ass, that thought he was strong
But I smoke him like grass, just like Cheech and Chong
When I flow, **** know it's time to take a hike
'Cause I grab the mic, and flip my tongue like a dyke
[Verse 15]
I got rhymes to keep you enchanted
Produce a smokescreen with the funky green
To keep your eyes slanted
[Verse 16]
So check the flavor that I'm bringin'
The motherfuckin' D R E
Will keep they motherfuckin' heads ringin'
[Verse 17]
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
Keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
[Verse 18]
If you want to get on down
You gotta get on down
Just get on down, oh
[Verse 19]
Debonair with flair, I scare wear and tear
Without a care, runnin' shit as if I was a mayor
But I ain't no politician, no competition
Sendin' all opposition to see a mortician
[Verse 20]
I'm up front, never in the backdrop
Step on stage, and get faded just like a flat top
Your rhyme sounds like you bought 'em at Stop-N-Go
Dre came to wax you, so just call me Mop & Glow
[Verse 21]
Many tried to, but just can't rock with
I'm 6'1, 225 of pure chocolate
Your chances of jackin' me are slim, G
'Cause I rock from summer till Santa comes down the chimney
[Verse 22]
Ho, ho, ho, and so, as I continue to flow
'Cause yo, I'm just a fly negro
[Verse 23]
So, check the flavor that I'm bringin'
The motherfuckin' D R E
Will keep they motherfuckin' heads ringin'
[Verse 24]
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
I keep their fuckin'' heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
I keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
I keep their heads ringin'
Ring, ding, dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding, dong
[Verse 25]
(If you want to get on down)
Yeah, Death Row back up in that ass
From the 1-99, to the nickel
(You gotta get on down)
Saw all you motherfuckers out there tryna take the piss
(Just get on down, oh)
Don't even try
[Verse 26]
(If you want to get on down)
Three cheers for binoculars, dig it
(You gotta get on down)
I know you bobbin' your head
(Just get on down, oh)
'Cause I can see you
[Verse 27]
I know you bobbin' your head
'Cause I can see you, you can't see me
Death Row, let me know you in the house
Yeah, that's right, we out
