3 The Hard Way

Fresh dressed 'cause I shop at Modell's

Deep in Brooklyn, I rode the Els

Used to ride the D to beat the morning bell

At Edward R. Murrow out on Avenue L

Now we be grilling cheese and flipping flapjacks

With the diamond stylus, yo, we cutting wax

We're super elastic, bubble plastic

Got ethereal material that's straight up classic

You try to vex, reject but you should respect

Or we'll have JC send you out a FedEx

So don't start to flex up in the discothèque

Or we'll make you extinct, tyrannosaurus rex

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"

Your rhyme technique, it is antique

To all my heads: Qu'est-ce que tu fabriques ?

Che cazzo fai? Come stai?

Ho fatto molte telefonate

I said, oops, gotcha, clutch like Piazza

Sneak between the sheets so hide the matzoh

Holler back, challah bread... next

We are the crew who put the crew in Cruex

I can see that Def Jam doesn't recognize me

I'm Mike D, the one who put the satin in your panties

Time to count MC's in this place to be

Not 5, not 4, not 2, just 3

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"

Round-house kick the mic out your hand

Drunken mantis, my name brand

If you're slick with the tricks and your sleight of hand

I'm hip to the shit that you're trying to scam

Gnip-Gnop, I got shit to pop

I'm an exceptional professional that just don't stop

So pack up your bag and your mic and don't wait

E.T. phone home, now get the fuck out my face

You know we shake 'em, bake 'em, then we take 'em

Treat MC's like leaves, go out and rake 'em

Sell our CDs on Canal before we make 'em

Serve you on a platter like Steak-umm

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"We're gonna rock this motherfucker like Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"

"Three the Hard Way"
