Summertime (Reprise)
. . .


Spill the beans on the table I always say…

Extra, Extra read all about Fresh Prince is back

You wonder how it

Happen

I wasn’t rappin’

For a long time

But now I’m back with a strong rhyme

Look, near the camera, snap my picture

I’ll sign my name on it, then I get richer

Like LL said don’t call it a comeback

And face the fact

Jack

I’m all that

(I know ya gonna dig this)

Here I am in the flesh

(Who is)

I’m the funky, funky, funky fresh

Rhyme authority

Rhythm console

Hip-hop liaison

Rap Ambassador

Do the daring, the king of the cut

Prince of poetry and all that stuff

Sexy, sexy, making the honey’s yell

Girlies passin’ out, ah well

Back from the dead, like Jason

People thought I was over, they were erasin’

Me and Jeff’s names out of the hit list

But ah, ah, ah not so quick

Comin’ back at cha

Can’t go back at cha

Catch this fast ball I’m throwin’ at y’all

Wake up and smell the coffee, I’m back now

Thanks for keeping my girl warm for me, pal

The man with the cape, the crown in the center

Out for a while, but wisely kept up

Pen and paper, so when I had my

Oppor-tun-ity, to rap.

I set my goals and then I shot for

What I do best, funny, to hell with hardcore

Voice on radio, face on TV

Spankin’ new funky rhymes on a CD

Out to attack

The wack

Full contact

It’s gonna be a long night go get a knapsack

I gotta getta make ya face the fact

That I’m the best rapper

on wax

I’m all that

(Get wicked)

Get up, get down, get funky, get loose

I’m the best show and I got proof

In the past there was always that kid doubted

But now I’m back and there’s no doubt about it

The writing is on the wall

(Come on)

Gimme ya mike and a stage and I’m a rip it, rip it, up y’all

Coz I can flow

Is there another rapper in the world, like me, hell no!

No ones like me

Others try to bite me

Bad deba deba bad mike me

Someone like me somewhere

To just not hear

Where the hell they at

Who cares?

Coz your got the ace in the hole

The simple lover brother

Numero uno

The rapper with soul

comin’ out a little on the new tip

for those of you that thought I couldn’t do this

yo well consider it done

it’s the same got the parents

just don’t understand the same one

people said that I couldn’t rap

ha ha ha well you can stop that

coz I’m a rapper and a half

and in the past I chose to make people laugh

and I was criticized for that

some called me soft, some called me wack

I gotta admit y’all I felt bad

(Who’d ya call)

so as usual I called my Dad

He’s sort of a fifty-one year old Casanova

He said son, "Yo, come on over."

He sat me down and he told me this

Son when your all that, you’re gonna get dissed

He put his arms around me and he said son

I was all that when I was young

So pump that point on

And set my sights on

Making a record that people thought was the: ??height jon, height joint, high joint???

Philly, born and raised

I’ve been

Gone for days

I can’t wait to get back

With my new track

Rhyme like lava

Voice like a volcano

I rhyme through your radio

Words like draedo

A Porsche not eleven and I don’t stall Jack

(Yo)

We all that

Intro/Chorus: *sung*

summer, summer, summertime
time to sit back and unwind

Verse One: Fresh Prince

Here it is the groove slightly transformed
just a bit of a break from the norm
just a little somethin' to break the monotony
of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
a little bit out of control it's cool to dance
but what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
give me a soft subtle mix
and if ain't broke then don't try to fix it
and think of the summers of the past
adjust the base and let the alpine blast
pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
and put your car on cruise and lay back cause it's the summertime

Chorus

Verse Two: Fresh Prince

school is out and it's a sort of a buzz
a back then I didn't really know what it was
but now I see what have of this
the way that people respond to summer madness
the weather is hot and girls are dressing less
and checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best
riding around in your jeep or your benzos
or in your Nissan stting on lorenzos
back in Philly we'd be out in the park
a place called the plateau is where everybody goes
guys out hunting and girls doing likewise
honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes
she turns around to see what you beeping at
it's like the summers a natural aphrodisiac
and with a pen and pad I compose this rhyme
to hit you and get you equipped for the summer time

Chorus

Verse Three: Fresh Prince

it's late in the day and I ain't been on the court yet
hustle to the mall to get me a short set
yeah I got on sneaks but I need a new pair
cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there
the temperature's about 88
hop in the water plug just for old times sake
break to ya crib change your clothes once more
cause you're invited to a barbeque that's starting at 4
sitting with your friends cause y'all remincise
about the days growing up and the first person you kiss
and as I think back makes me wonder how
the smell from a grill could spark up nostalgia
all the kids playing out front
little boys messin round with the girls playing double-dutch
while the DJ's spinning a tune as the old folks dance at your family
reunion
then six o'clock rolls around
you just finished wiping your car down
it's time to cruise so you go to the summertime hangout
it looks like a car show
everybody come lookin real fine
fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon
every moment frontin and maxin
chillin in the car they spent all day waxin
leanin to the side but you can't spead through
Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
there's an air of love and of happiness
and this is the Fresh Prince's new defintion of summer madness

Chorus

. . .


(Intro/Chorus)

It's just the things that you do (5x)

The way you do the things you do

(Verse 1)

8:05, the alarm clock sound

I grab my shoe and turn the damn thing down

But now it's 9 o'clock and I still ain't up up yet

Work on time, yeah I admire the concept

You got me yearnin’ and I mean anticipating

Seeing you I can't wait and so not concentrate

My mind is blind of all the time, thinking of you

And the way you do things you do

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)

I walk in the park for a midnight rendevous

For a slow dance, romance, my motive is see through

I wanna be with you

But I ain't hiding

A wave of love and I'm gliding and ridening

Things like that when you hear me

Sayin' sort of sounds like that same old cliché

Climbing the highest mountain and swimming the deepest sea

But I can't front, I want you to be want me

Cause baby when you grab me tightly

You send chills and tend to insight me

When you caress and fumble me lightly

Oh girl watch up cause she might be

Settin' yourself up the way that you tease me

Sooner or later you might have to please me

It's just something about you

The way you do things you do

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

Now why oh why would an incredibly fly guy like me

Be chasing one lady

It's just something about you

The way you carry yourself when you're out you

Seem to have a sort of captivating style, I've parked the feelin'

But your whip is appealing

Since this is a subject that I brought up

I just mind as well admit that I'm caught up

It ain't the clothes that you're wearin'

Your perfume or the style that that your hair's in

It ain't your body, how slim your waist is

Your new jeans and how pretty your face is

But I feel funny when it close proximity

Make it wonder what's gettin' in to me

It's just something about you

The way you do the things you do

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

It's nothing that you do (2x)

The way you do the things you do

(Verse 4)

The mystery’s of this world I ponder

Just sittin' back let my mind wonder

What the, why the, who the, how the hell is this young lady

Drive me so crazy

Reply in thought pose like the thinker

I play you with kiss or a wink

Or a smile just to show you

It's something about you

The way you do the things you do

Come here, come here

Come on out, don't worry

You want me to chase you don't you?

Just come here, I've got you now

Sss

The way you do the things you

(Chorus)

It's just the things that you do

(the way you do the things you do) (10x)

(Bridge)

The way (repeated several times)


. . .


Well I was cool and sitting by the phone and waiting for
A ring with a female voice or a date or
An invitation to a nightclub for some minglin
But ahh
My phone started jinglin
Picked it up
I checked the rolex first
I call one of my regulars worst come to worst
I said hello
But the voice sounded nervous
Baby relax fp at your service
The girl spoke up and her voice sounded very nice
I met you last week at that club called the paradise
I said yeah babe I'd like to go their again
Get dressed and you better be flossy at ten
Hung up the phone and checked the mirror
Sort of like esp I could hear her
Heart beating encaged with the groove
And all I could say to myself was
Damn this boy is smooth

So I pulled up to the club at the gate where they let celebs in
Entre booted a porsche 9-11 then
Girls took a look at me and started to break
Ladies come down I've already got a date
Cruised up front and I was happy to find her
Tantalising tasty tune named tanya
I said ay yo babe lets not go in the place yet
Come on hope in I got luther in the tape deck
I kicked the gift and the girl was like silly putty
She said lets go some place and chill I said really honey
We went to the beach to take a little walk
I found out I was smoother than I thought
My hands like maverick started to wander
Left and right then wound up behind her
Face to face and chest to chest and ohh like a spindle of silk
Yo this boy is smooth

Here it is
Verse trace
Back at my place
The scene was set because I set it before I left
Girl im like a tool grab me and use me
Where do you want me by the fireplace or the jacuzi
I never slipped yo I got my grip like a handle
Turn down the lights and lit up a candle
A bottle of chilled champagne right beside me
Radio booming pumpin the isley
Maybe I'll grab her and give her a kiss
Or kick her a line on the smooth billy dee tip
Or maybe ill take her outside where the pools at
Smack it up flip it naa im too cool for that
Ahh I know what I'll do
Hold her tightly and caress for a little while
Make it gentle and slow not faster
Pause for the cause and heres a word from the master

Yo I'm the j-a-double z-jazzy
Smooth as self smooth than I have to be
knowing acknowledged recognised that that's the king of the groove
and I'm the man that blessed FP is smooth

ay yo j take me out


. . .


Intro Yo yo yo yo Yo yo yo yo (Ring my bell, ring my bell) Yo yo yo yo Yo yo yo yo (Ring my bell, ring my bell)

Verse 1:

I'm just a telephone call away
You can pick it up and call me any day
And Ima listen to all you got to say
Cause I'm the type of man that never turn a woman away
Think of this as an invitation
Your heart to mine in a conversation
So when things get to much to bare like The Jackson 5 "I'll be there"
Just call me up on the telephone
Call me up when you're all alone
And I'll give you a verbal massage
Until your man gets home
Or if you want to you know what you could do, well
You could always hop in your car and you could come and ring my bell

Chorus
Ring my bell, ring my bell (Ring my bell, ring my bell) Ring my bell, ring my bell (Ring my bell) RI-I-ING!!!

Verse 2:

I hate to see you cry, tear after tear while this guy
Plays you like your life is a game
I've seen his type and there all the same
Breaking your heart without a care
Girl if I was in you shoes he'd be outta there
Your man is wak good for nothin' but flack
I'd tell him to pack and hit the road Jack
Who loves ya baby I do you know he doesn't care about you let him go
Where he at now? You don't know Layin' up under some
hold up wait just let me chill
no need for me to get ill
Cause yo I'm the best but yo time will tell
But I'll be here so ring my bell

Chorus

Verse 3:

Now I know this sounds like a fairy tale
But this ain't no children's book
I'm here, for you to take me dear
Just open your eyes and look at
What the future holds for you and if you lunch then you might ruin
Something great don't make a big mistake pay attention to what you're doing
Life is full of pitfalls, ups and downs
It's sort of a mission now you're on a rocky road
But you could get up just make that decision
That you want someone to love you adore you and hold you and treat you well
So when you're ready to be treated that way baby you can ring my bell

Chorus

(Repeat till fade)

You aint nuthin but a dog
You aint nuthin but a dog
You aint nuthin but a dog
You aint nuthin but a dog
(a dog a dog a dog is a dog)

Now I don't know what it is
But I've had this problem since I was a little kid
Girls were drawn to me
You might be asking yourself how big a problem could that be
Check this out and peep this here yall
Me and this f-l-y guy got pitfalls
Cause I got it rough
Cause one girl for me ain't never been enough
And it seems that women can't handle when
Your paintbrush is for more than one canvas
But I gotta keep on painting like picasso going to the break of dawn
Now the way I play
The things I say
Never been a lie cause I ain't that type of guy
And that's why I get totally appalled
When females say I ain't nuthin but a dog

But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog

Back in high school this girl named Tracy
Yoused to do her best to disgrace me
She tried to destroy FP
She told all her friends I was a d-o-g
But yo I swear it was a misunderstanding
But she seemed to think that I planned it
She had this friend evette
That wanted to double date cause she was liking Jeff
But I showed up all alone
Told her that Jeff was sick back at home
I said I tried to call you
But we can still double date
Me plus your 2
She didn't get what the joke was all about
She smacked the tapes right out of my mouth
And with a huff and a puff walked off
And then tracy said he ain't nuthin but a dog

But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog

Dammit I ain't no dog and that's one of the names I refuse to be called
Cause that label just ain't fair yo
Look I'm a prince I'm supposed to have a herum
Well of course I like you
But I like her and that other girl too
What do you mean I'm just like them other singers
Look I don't see no rings on this fingers
I ain't ready to settle down quite yet
I wanna carve my name on the night set
I want shoe boxes with hundreds of love notes
I want my phone to ring till its broke
I want a dance and prance in italy
And girls in egypt thinking just of me
I wanna be in the mix that's all
But I guess to you I ain't nuthin but a dog

But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog

Look baby can I rap to you for a second
I just wanna talk to you
I wanna know why I gotta be a dog
Why d-o-g gotta refer to me
Look baby I'm 21 years old
You know I'm making a little bit of money
I'm just trying to see the world and have some fun
You know… okay yes I do have a lot of friends (dog)
Well associates I like to think of them as creative date associates you know
Evette is my associate Donna's my associate im just trying to enjoy myself
Why do you keep calling me a dog
Oh I'm a dog (dog)
I'm a dog right
Okay well um ruff ruff

You ain't nuthin but a dog

(I've never had a dog)
(I'm not a dog)
(I've never had a dog)
(I'm not a dog)
(I've never had a dog)
(I'm not a dog)

But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog
But a dog is a dog is a dog is a dog
You ain't nuthin but a dog

Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)

Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)

Love and life a mysterious combo
Sit back relax cause now its time to go
Back in my past my personal strife for being
Caught in the middle of love and life
Love is a fairytale earthly bond
But life is true reality chimes
When life brings on love is kind of hard for you to give up
The satisfaction you started for
This is a metaphor sort of a riddle
If your confused chill and I'm sure it'll
Clear up for you in a little bit
Love and life and I'm caught in the middle of it

The middle
Caught
The middle

Who or why your love ain't always right
Especially when you cross the pass of life
The wrath of life is hard
Cause your taught to dream on
But when your out in the world realities on
You found somebody to be with
You pour your lovin in and it seems as if
Your pouring your love into a bottomless pit
You love each other but it just ain't workin
Your not meant to be together it seems like
Well just think maybe its things like
She work 9 to 5 you work 5 to 9
Never together two separate lives
Love versus life see what I mean
You like the movies she like the club scene
Nobody's wrong and nobody's right
Just caught in the middle of love and life

Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)

Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)

Everybody wants to capture the rapture
Love and live happily ever after
Walking around barefoot sniffing daisies
Laying around all day long making babies
Go to france and dancin eatin in sweden
Gambling in rio
Winning cause your cheating
These are situations you can have some fun in
But open your eyes and real life comes running in
Dreaming again a plateau to come down off
Back to the world and see your love life sounds off
Start the day right call your girlfriend
But love and life start at it again
She says baby I need to send you
You say babe I got work to tend to
Love tells you to go be with her
But life says boy get your butt to work
Think of love and life as a rock and a hard place
Exhilarating like a high speed car chase
Heart ache heart break cuts like a knife
Caught in the middle of love and life

Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
In the middle (in love)
Caught (in life)
(in love)
Caught (in life)
(in love)
caught
in the middle
caught
in the middle

Your trapped on the dance floor

It's locked there's no escape

There's no eat no drink cant take a break

No seat to sit down you gotta stand up

The record on the wheel reacts like a handcuff

Your in a cage and this groove will bound you

People in the club like bars around you

The doors open up and the people are boarding

Here are the prisoners the DJ is the warden

Your mind is useless instinct takes control

Jam to techno

Groove to soul to soul

You been arrested

Now your being tested

The beat is a sex fiend, you're being molested

Stead drum kicks like pistol in spinal

You gotta dance and get round like a Rhino

The DJ cuts with a knife like a surgery

Sayin that the slice aint nice that’s purgory

The music infiltrates you mutates you

Grabs you holds you moulds you and let you

Do things you wouldn't a otherwise done

Like shake rattle roll pump twist and then some

Ain't no law here you can't protest this

Stop looking around it ain't no oasis

You can't leave till the man pulls the needle

Take that as a warning

Take heed or I'll quicken the pitch and make you dance faster

The drum is the whip, bass line is the master

The temperature's a 100 and yet you still want more

You’re a slave and your trapped on the dance floor

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

Now your wondering lost in a jungle

You came in hyped up but now your humble

Bringing out sweat in your silky wet clothes

You scream for help, blend in with the ??? and hoes

You try to sit but their ain't know spaces

The floor is a desert, a party oasis

I know your on the tip for the rhyme I just did

And here's a little taste of my homeboy, El Sid

Ay a prince it’s the El Sid's version

I'm a raid on the track, I'm a hip-hop surgeon

The floor is jam packed get away from the bar scene

The strum of the drum has you trapped like a sardine

You try to move no form of escape

The heat brings on sweat, stick on like tape

Party's like a ???

Girls slim and trim on the floor

Don't try to shoot for the door

This ain't the gym

The party goers every night had a scene

This mic try to respond but still trapped like in Venus

Aint a spiff or a spoof

Boy you better not goof

You about to cave in although you ain't on a roof

The rhythm track from offside's to angles

Playing the wimp fight resist … strangle

You can't escape until the DJ's fingers up

So play like a phone or coat and just hang it up

The speakers pumping out sounds and hip words

Lines between the rhythm designed to equip nerds

You better jam we don't care if you hardcore

Cause we got you trapped on the dance floor

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

Me and prince got together just to kick our lines

No trouble at the party cause we're strapped with nines

Dance floor secure, don't bother tryin to get out

You looking for the late AM this man pull red out

Nobody cause killing is mean

Got ya dancin' in the dark and dressed like Springsteen

Razzamatazz a pasazz about to rip the flesh is my man Jazz Fresh

Soon as I worked through the door

I got trapped on the dance floor

See this girlie that I never saw

She was looking raw

Came a little closer

Then I opposed her

Then I drop the fox trot so hot that I roast her

??? planes in the damn chain

hard to explain

I did it up like I was straight outta Soul Train

Listen as I discuss this yo bust this

Like a hammer before me you cant touch this

Trapped on the floor like a vulture

Part of my culture

You may even thought I was drived to faulter

Get live like a ???jack that fives you the window main???

Add a little mic and janet you cant understand it

Cause ??? thought I was from another planet

Way of whipping and dipping

And sliding ??? of what I'm providin

Other dancers go and hide

Like Charles ???

I'm prancin

I keep the dance all night until

The party's over the party's over

Like a cowboy at a rodeo

From mister mister dosie doe

Around the dance floor

Steppin the new hardcore

I'm Jazz Fresh and I'm trapped

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

Max up

to step up

just to keep this rap up

the time that he possesses the best in a contest

Jeff with his right and left like Jazz Fresh

No other than the brother the lover Jazzy Jeff

I

'm the one dance floor at the station

??? time around quarter to ten

times work hard

the customers scarred

your tickets to freedom

yo you ain't gonna need em

your sentence is 25 years to life

a ??? is your husband and wife

trapped behind the steel

the steel of the wheels

don't come to the party if you don't wanna know how business feels

I walk strong carry a big stick

Sell myself all packed and thick

When they sound the drum you know its time to roll

Might as well have fun there's no parol

I set a trap and caught you like a mouse

For times ahead no chance for a halfway house

Pump the bass in all sections

Prince, sid, and jazz my officers of correction

Cant' escape the floor cut the crime out

??? wall ain't no use tryin to climb out

cause I'm running this show and it's live in here

you try to escape another five years

I got you trapped and I'm your savior

You dance real hard you might get out on good behavior

But if you don't I give you more

'Cause DJ Jazzy Jeff got you trapped on the dance floor

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

Oh oh I'm trapped like a

???

I can't get out

Can't you see I'm trapped

Can't you see I'm so confused

I can't get out

[Jeff] Let, Let, Let's Go

[Announcer] Calling all cars, calling all cars
Be on the lookout someone has stolen the D.J.
Agent F.P. get on the case immediately

[Jeff] Lets, Lets Go

[Fresh Prince] I Got the call about eleven fifteen
Twelve o'clock arrived on the scene
Looked around and things were ill
The party was at a dead stand still
People sittin' around no music
The situation was somewhat confusing
But I'm a detective I knew right away what happened
Somebody stole the D.J
. Who or why I had no clue
But I knew what I had to do
No eat no sleep, just work
Then walked past this fly mini-skirt
I had to dis her quick before she greeted
Come on baby I'm working, beat it
Come on I'm busy, just go away
Gotta find out who stole the D.J.

[Jeff] Lets, Lets Go

[Fresh Prince] This mystery needed to quickly be solved
Cause there were kids involved
Friday and Saturday nights had no songs
Why, because the D.J. was gone
Smiles you used to dance and sing around
Now were replaced by frowns
And it was up to me to solve the mystery
And get back the disc jockey
I found an eye witness
But his breath wreaked of chitlins
All I know is his breath did pound
Buddy forget it, just write it down
No fingerprints no clues
The only witness was the bad breath dude
It was up to me to save the day
And find out who stole the D.J.

[Jeff] Lets, Lets Go

[Fresh Prince] Through the door this dame walked in
I swear to James Bond a perfect ten
I thought to myself I'm working just forget it
Then I thought well maybe I've got a minute
So I took her down to the station
To the back room for some interrogation
Captain doesn't like it, but I must confess
I interrogate best when I'm undressed
We were in there for hours drained
To see who would break first, me or the dame
Then she broke, and her mind was my possession (Prince I love you)
That wasn't the question I only wanna know one thing
I've gotta make the kids dance and sing
So tell me now cause crime don't pay baby
Who stole the D.J.
I scarrowed the city but still no clue
Lost like a cause, what should I do
Then like a bolt of ligtening it hit me
Ah, the worst villain in the city
I wasn't prepared for what was in store
He had stolen the D.J. before
You all know this ruthless foe
To his hideout (let, lets go)
Tip toed up the steps
Slowly and ever so quietly I crept
But out of nowhere I was attacked
Just like in the movies, clubbed from the back
I felt like a fool (man, you need to go back to private eye school)
I was the dunce of the day
There I was tied up with the D.J.

[Jeff] Let's Go

[Fresh Prince] There we were both tied to a pole
I told the D.J. relax its under control
(Relax man, we both goin' down you can't even keep yourself untied)
Do you want to be free or not I'm gonna get us out of this tight spot
I planned this all along cap
There a knife in my swiss army hat
With the blade I cut the rope (Man your secret services spy hats dope)
I radio'd for back up cars
So we could put this crook behind bars
Another criminal off the streets
Another D.J. back to his beats
I walked in the club and I was happy to say
Ladies and gentlemen, here's your D.J.

[Jeff] Let's Go

Announcer] Calling all cars, calling all cars Be on the lookout, (let, lets go)
Someone has stolen another D.J.
Calling private eye Fresh Prince
Be on the lookout (let, lets go)
Someone has stolen another D.J.
Get on the case immediately

[Jeff] Lets Go, Lets Go, Lets Go, Lets Go

This is a story I'll never forget
About the day my new car got hit
It could me off guard cause it happened so quick
When I heard the crash I got mad as hell
Cruising down the highway fast not slow
Ninety miles an hour in my five point o
People waving at me cause they know who I am
Alpine stereo blasting a jam
Put the top down said my girlfriend
Then my damn hat blew off in the wind
I got kind of mad cause it's the hat I just bought
I should of put her out it was all her fault
Day was Friday date was the tenth
My girl was looking good on her strength
She smacked my hand when I put it on her knee
I said hit me again and I'll break your wrist
That day I dressed all in white
Taking my girl to Palm Springs for the night
I was hoping I could find a short cut
I was tired plus I had a rash on my butt
There was this lady in a pinto croup
About ninety years old I could tell by the droop
Driving all fast border line insane
Glasses so thick couldn't stay in her lane
I swerved left and I swerved right
But she was still tale gating me too damn tight
To the left lane I tried to switch then
You saw my blinker bitch

We both pulled off on the side of the road
I was hot ready to explode
The only thing stopping me from breaking her nose
Was I was 21 and she was ninety years old
Then the police came turned the lights off
The lady started crying and the cop got soft
The cop said oh it'll be okay
Wrinkled old bag looking like a sharpe
I said wait what's going on cap
Her cars fine my cars all wrecked
Then I saw what happened in the crash
Her dentures came out got stuck in the dash
You hit me I didn't hit you
Stop holding your neck lady you can't sue
It's your fault you caused all this
You saw my blinker bitch

Wednesday, October the fourth
That's when we got our day in court
That lady destroyed my case
When she came in a wheelchair and a neck brace
I jumped up I said you must be joking
Come on judge her neck ain't broken
Well I'll be damned
Wrinkled old bag started crying on the stand
The bailiff grabbed me slammed me on the ground
Judge said boy you better come down
Aren't you one of them damn rap singers
Yeah, then I gave him the finger
Judge held me contempt of court
For giving him the finger and things of that sort
Anything to say before you're dismissed
Just one you saw my blinker bitch

. . .


We gonna do a song

Me and my crew like to play around
Me like to laugh and joke and have fun while we going down
Born and raised in philly
We go jam and jam and jam actin silly
We got a dance we do at a party
That we'd like to introduce to everybody
It ain't the humpty nor the lambada
More party pump than a damn piniata
You may have seen it on my tv show
Yeah I know I dance like a pro
Cause I get busy and I get loose g
On the dance floor cant another brother juice me
Cause I'm smooth and I move loosely
With a spin or a kick like bruce lee
Come on get on the floor and take the chance
Everybody its time to dumb dance

Now what's a dumb dance you might ask
Well let me take you to my dumb dancin class
Its called dumb dance 101
It's where we teach smart people how to be dumb
Heres the background and heres what's up
Back in philly where we grew up
We used to party all the time
Just playing around and make a soul train line
This old train line the concept changed
To put it in joint got flipped and rearranged
The line turned into a contest yo
To see who could dance not the worst but the best though
So in philly the dance caught on fast
People starting challenging me to dance
So I got busy quick as the music was played up
How you gonna beat me at a dance I made up
Now you know that I can throw that
Body of mine fine so I'm about to show that
Guy who thinks he can do it a bit better
I'm the creator originator so go and get a seat to sit down
So I can demonstrate a dance that's easy to do
And you don't have to contemplate a move at all
Just take a bit of a chance
Its time to dumb dance

Everybody in the house just (clap your hands)
Come on just (clap your hands everybody)
just (clap your hands)
Come on just (clap your hands everybody)
Say (clap your hands)
Say (clap your hands)
Say (now we come to the real thing)
Ha

Well there it is y'all the dumb dance concept
But let me break it down for those of you who haven't got it yet
It's the new craze coming across america
And I really really really don't care if you do it with a partner
Or do it alone
If you do it at a club
Or you do it at home
If you really cant dance then heres ya chance
Go for yours on the dance floor everybody dumb dance

(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
ha what?
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)
(What does it all mean) (I don't know)

(now then let us have some fun)
(what's up doc)
(cha cha cha forward back)
(cha cha cha back forward)
one, two, three now
(everybody reach reach over the top everybody reach up don't stop don't stop everybody reach reach over the top don't stop)
(everybody reach reach over the top everybody reach up don't stop don't stop everybody reach reach over the top don't stop)
(everybody reach reach over the top everybody reach up don't stop don't stop everybody reach reach over the top don't stop)
