Lyrics

[Intro]
Here come the Men in Black
It's the MIBs, uh, here come the MIBs
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember
[Verse 1]
The good guys dress in black, remember that
Just in case we ever face to face and make contact
The title held by me, MIB
Means what you think you saw, you did not see
So don't blink, be what was dead is now gone
Black suit with the black Ray Bans on
Walk in shadow, move in silence
Guard against extra-terrestrial violence
But, yo, we ain't on no government list
We straight don't exist, no names and no fingerprints
Saw something strange, watch your back
'Cause you never quite know where the MIBs is at
[Chorus]
Here come the Men in Black
Galaxy defenders
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember
[Verse 2]
Now, from the deepest of the darkest of night
On the horizon, bright light enters sight, tight
Cameras zoom on the impending doom
But then like, boom, black suits fill the room up
With the quickness, talk with the witnesses
Hypnotizer, neuralizer
Vivid memories turn to fantasies
Ain't no MIBs, can I please
Do what we say, that's the way we kick it
Ya know I mean? I see my noisy cricket get wicked on ya
We're your first, last, and only line of defense
Against the worst scum of the universe
[PreChorus]
So don't fear us, cheer us
If you ever get near us, don't jeer us, we're the fearless
MIBs, freezing up all the flack
(What's that stand for?) Men in Black
[Refrain]
The Men in Black
The Men in Black
[Bridge]
Let me see ya just bounce it with me, just bounce with me
Just bounce it with me, come on
Let me see ya just slide with me, just slide with me
Just slide with me, come on
Let me see ya take a walk with me, just walk it with me
Take a walk with me, come on
And make your neck work
Now freeze
[Chorus]
Here come the Men in Black
Galaxy defenders
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember
[Verse 3]
Alright check it, let me tell you this in closing
I know we might seem imposing
But trust me, if we ever show in your section
Believe me, it's for your own protection
'Cause we see things that you need not see
And we be places that you need not be
So go witcha life, forget that Roswell crap
Show love to the black suit, 'cause that's the Men in
That's the Men in
[Chorus]
Here come the Men in Black
Galaxy defenders
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember
[Outro]
Here come the Men in Black
Galaxy defenders
Here come the Men in Black
They won't let you remember
