| The year is 1971
|
| Now comes the first of the children of LOTUG
|
| Lords of the Underground, witness the birth of the funky child
|
| Doitall, hit 'em!
|
| Born with the fuckers from the womb of Brenda
|
| She now likes the Lords but she used to dig the Spinners
|
| First with the style from the birth canal
|
| And now I got the flav to make the crowd go wild
|
| So dig it, wahh! |
| Ooh, watch me dig it
|
| I’m taking no shorts unless it’s coming from a midget
|
| I tax the peace more than chicken packs grease
|
| I’m nearly knockin' boots, but if not, I’ll knock teeth
|
| Wahh! |
| Ga ga, ooh, cries the baby
|
| Smacked on the ass, now the Doitall’s crazy
|
| No rattles, or playpens, or crowds when I’m rappin'
|
| And yes, I do reruns, as if this was What’s Happening
|
| Now January 14 has birthed the funk one
|
| The B-Day for Dupree, and yes, I’m funky
|
| I got you bobbin' to the funky style
|
| K-Def, let 'em know here comes the funky child
|
| Yeah… (laughs) born in the underground of Newark
|
| Now witness the birth of Mr. Funkee
|
| The fifth of the terror, it’s the return of Funky Kreuger
|
| A.K. |
| Anger, we told 'em Mr. Funkee Wallbanger
|
| Conceived in the fire by a war through disasters
|
| The funky child was taught to the ways of the masters
|
| Mr. Funkee, yes, girl, the black mack is back
|
| Here to kick my funky style, funky this and funky that
|
| You can work day and night, you could practice all your life
|
| But I still take the show and then I go home with the wife
|
| Oh my God, funky with the style, Lord have mercy
|
| I hurdle over rappers just like Jackie Joyner-Kersee
|
| Watch me flip the script, let me show you what the funk do
|
| Make you call me uncle (What?) Uncle (What?!) Uncle (Who?!)
|
| When I was young I used to sing with my sister
|
| (Heyy)
|
| Now I kick the ill styles, you have to call me mister
|
| Cooling in the House of Hits, time to buckwild
|
| Raised in the ways of the funky child
|
| Back up baby, here comes the stroller
|
| We’re hit when we dry crawl and hit rock 'n' rolla
|
| I’m caught in the swinging hypnotized by the Pendulum
|
| Distributed by Elektra, so this is how I’m killing them
|
| K is on the M.P., Jazz is on the Technic
|
| Marley’s on the mix, and now the Lords have a hit like POW!
|
| Now it’s time to get buckwild
|
| And watch my funky brothers freak the underground
|
| In a second, or minute, in no times flat…
|
| Bring it back!
|
| And go grab the album to bring the Lords money
|
| Take it home to mom to say, «Ain't they funky?»
|
| We gone psycho and everbody thought we was DAS
|
| It didn’t affect me, I said, «So what?» |
| I kept on writing rhymes
|
| I keep my funky style perfected so no one can stop my flow
|
| I fear no man, cause if it’s on fool, then it’s on
|
| (And it’s on!)
|
| Don’t worry not for other crews selling out
|
| As long as Lords of the Underground stay underground
|
| The brothers of LOTUG will keep the lyrical fitness
|
| Don’t worry about me selling out, mind your business
|
| You might say, «Damn, Mr. Funkee’s going out!»
|
| But if you listen to the words then you’ll know what I’m about
|
| Any props you receive are the props that you earn
|
| I’m off 'til the funky child returns |
