Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woo!
Doing it big
[Verse 2]
I'm the lyrical, mathematical genius
Splashing like lime juice, you've never seen this
Internationally known, the longest, the leanest
Shout out to one José Nenis
[Verse 3]
I hit 'em with the rhyme and the rhyme don't stop
We got the beat and the beat go drop
The ping pong paddle make the battle go pop
Now take a look around this spot
[Verse 4]
I'm seeing every detail like an over-cranked camera
Sleestaks in the back say, "Damn ya!"
You say, "I can't" and I say, "Why can't ya?"
Chopping the track in the, in the land of...
[Verse 5]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
[Verse 6]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
[Verse 7]
There's a bird in here
That's my DJ, not Dr. Brassiere
Dropping bombs like a bombardier
Like cacao! He's a chocolatier
[Verse 8]
We're giving y'all a little slice of heaven
B-Boys bringing it back to A7
Deal with the schism, ride on the rhythm
Sweet like pie and the pie's what I give 'em
[Verse 9]
I'll stage a coup and usurp your position
'Cause, 'cause like a Mormon I'm on a mission
We're audible-visible, cadence is lyrical
Got my mental and physical when the moment is critical
[Verse 10]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
[Verse 11]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
[Verse 12]
Lee Majors come again
[Verse 13]
Like The Six Dillion... Dillion Dollar Man
Woo! Watch out!
In the back of the bus, gonna bust
Lee Majors style
[Verse 14]
I said stop. Watch how I flip
Bill Piedmont with the Kung-Fu grip
Haymaker, roundhouse, show can't continue
At the roller rink down in Virginia
[Verse 15]
Oh, did I spill the beans?
I see your grandpa in Apple Bottom jeans
Von Dutch cap, Ugg boots to match
Once the word gets out you can't take it back
[Verse 16]
'Cause I'm just a pause tape competition expert winner
Just a doggone, long-armed, tall yarn spinner
You want a battle? Easy now, Star
My DJ's so nasty he needs a sneeze guard
[Verse 17]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
[Verse 18]
You wanna buy this, you wanna take that
Wanna wanna try this, wanna wanna make that
You can't abide this, you wanna fake that
Take a look around you
