| This speech is my recital, I think it’s very vital

| To rock (a rhyme), that’s right (on time)
|
| «It's Tricky» is the title, here we go…

|
| I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
|
| Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
|
| These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
|
| Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said «It's not that easy»
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… (How is it D?) It’s Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Trrrrrricky)
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… Tricky (Tricky) Tricky
|
| In New York, the people talk and try to make us rhyme
|
| They really (hawk) but we just (walk) because we have no time
|
| And in the city, it’s a pity 'cause we just can’t hide
|
| Tinted windows don’t mean nothin', they know who’s inside
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… (How is it D?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky) huh!
|
| When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time
|
| I’m not singin', phone keep ringin' cause I make up a rhyme
|
| I’m not braggin', people naggin' cause they think I’m a star
|
| Always tearin' what I’m wearin', I think they’re goin' too far
|
| A girl named Carol follows Darryl every gig we play
|
| Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she’s jockin' Jay
|
| I ain’t lyin', girls be cryin' cause I’m on TV
|
| They even bother my poor father cause he’s down with me
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… (How is it?) Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)
|
| It’s Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time
|
| It’s Tricky… Tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky (Tr-Tr-Tr-Tricky) Tr-tr-tr…
|
| We are not thugs (we don’t use drugs) but you assume (on your own)
|
| They offer coke (and lots of dope) but we just leave it alone
|
| It’s like that y’all (y'all), but we don’t quit
|
| You keep on (rock!) shock 'cause this is it… |
