Lyrics
I.
Behold!
Here's a groove from another time and another place
We can call, "Outer Space"--
Let me Funk Your Mind
Just like the Angel who says,
"Have no Fear,
For The End is Near!"
She swigs a Beer
And turns around to show you Her Rear
And says, "See what I tell ya'? So there!"
Hear, Hear!! (hey!!)
(CHORUS)
Just like the Rapper who tries to Flow
He opnes his mouth, but he just don't Know
About the outside world, so on the Block he will Sit
High on weed and Low on Wit. (2X)
How can you be so High
When you're feeling Low
When you shut off The Faucet
It stops your Flow! (2X)
II.
(Hunh?!)
I didn't say My Name?!
Well, it's not about Fame
Or some Hardcore Game
Or to place the Blame
Of your living Shame on my veteran sound
Which is 'New' to You all the Same
Now, here's a groove from another Time and another Place
That we can call, "Inter-Space"--
Where you find The Rhyme! (come on!)
(CHORUS)
III.
Now dig:
I didn't curse, I didn't Swear
But you.......
You probably wouldn't even Care
If I broke down and said something like:
"May I Frighten YOU
Into Doin' What You'd Want To DO?!"
(Get ready---)
"To The Bridge, Ygor!!"
And, here we go----OH!!
(CHORUS)
