Stepped on the d-train at 205th
I saw a pretty girl
D: so?
R: so i sat beside her
Then she went [fx: roar] like she was tony the tiger
I said, oh no, there's been a mistake
Honey, my name's slick rick not frostie flakes
D: oh, golly wally
R: she was raisin' hell
She said, oh my name is maggie but call me michelle
Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont, tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
Bust a move, we show and prove
A-yo doug, do that record jam on the groove
Outro
D: as you can see, most definitely
We are (fresh)
Chill will (fresh)
Barry b is (fresh)
Ricky d is (fresh)
And i am, the original human beatbox
The entertainer, doug e... (fresh)
