Dead Serious

From the tail-end of Yo! MTV Raps heyday. My neighbor in the dorm knocked on my door and asked me to turn this down on two separate occasions.

Love it.

Still, the "Mic Checka" remix would have to be my favorite.

I like that one, too, but I'm stuck on this one for the past few days. Haven't a clue what they're saying most of the time, but I like it.

Rocked the lp religiously! When you decipher the lyrics you find tons of pop culture references. Nothing to heavy or Earth shattering, just a cool song.

Here ya go

Bum stiggedy bum stiggedy bum, hon, I got the old pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
But I can fe-fi-fo-fum, diddly-bum, here I come
So peter piper, Im hyper than pinochios nose
Im the supercalafragilistic tic-tac pro
I gave my oopsy, daisy, now youve got the crazy
Crazy with the books, googley-goo wheres the gravy
So one two, unbuckle my, um shoe
Yabba doo, hippity-hoo, crack a brew
So trick or treat, smell my feet, yup I drippedy-dropped a hit
So books get on your mark and spark that old censorship
Drats and double drats, I smiggedy-smacked some whiz kids
The boogedy-woogedly brooklyn boys about to get his, dig
My waist bones connected to my hip bone
My hip bones connected to my thigh bone
My thigh bones connected to my knee bone
My knee bones connected to my hardy-har-har-har
The jibbedy-jabber jaw ja-jabbing at your funny bone, um
Skip the ovaltine, Id rather have a honeycomb
Or preferably the sesame, lets spiggedy-spark the blunts, um
Dun dun dun dun dun, dun dun

They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
Snap a neck for some live efx

Well Ill be darned, shiver me timbers, yo head for the hills
I picked a weeping willow, and a daffodil
So back up bucko or Ill pulverize mcgruff
cause this little piggy gets busy and stuff
Arrivederci, heavens to mercy, honky tonk I get swift
I caught a snuffleufagus and smoked a boogaloo spliff
I got the nooks, the cranies, the nitty gritty fodey-doe
All aboard, cast away, hey wheres my boogaloo?
Oh Im steaming, agony
Whys everybody always picking on me
They call me puddin tane, and raps my game
You ask me again and Ill t-tell you the same
cause Im the vulgar vegemintarian, so stick em up freeze
So no park sausages, mom, please
A-blitz shoots the breeze, twiddly-dee shoots his lip
Crazy dazy shot the sheriff, yup and I shot the gift
And thats pretty sneaky, sis oh yep
I got my socks off, my rocks off, my nestles cup of cocoa
Holly hobby tried to slob me, tried to rob me silly stunt
Diggedy-dun dun dun dun dun, dun dun

They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
Snap a neck for some live efx

Yahoo, hidee-ho yup Im coming around the stretch
So here fido boy, fetch, boy, fetch
I got the rope-a-dope a slippery choker, look at me get raw
And Im the hickory-dickory top of morning boogoloo big jaw
With the yippedy zippedy winnie the pooh bad boy blue,
Yo crazy got the gusto, what up, I swing that too
So nincompoop give a hoot and stomp a troop without a strain
Like roscoe b. coltrane
I spiggedy-spark a spiff and give a twist like chubby checker
I take my froot loops with two scoops, make it double decker
Oh vince, the baby come to papa duke
A babaloo, ooh, a babaloo boogedy boo
I went from gucci to stussy, to fliggedy-flam a groupie
To zsa zsa, to yibbedy-yabba dabba hoochie koochie
Tally ho i-Ill take my stove top instead of potatoes, so
Maybe Ill shoot em now, nope maybe Ill shoot em later, yep
I used to have a dog and bingo was his name oh, so uh
B - I - n - g - o-oh
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, hon, so uh
Dun dun dun dun dun, dun dun

They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
They want efx, some live efx
Snap a neck for some live efx

That's the thing I loved about them.

That used to be my song!
