If You Wanna Know |
| My mother told me if you got it there’s no need to flaunt it |
| Cause everything I’ll get depends on just how bad I want it |
| I said this to myself one day, minding my own beeswax |
| When this big, buff tough guy stepped to me |
| And I’m like «Ease back, sleezestack!» |
| Before I knock your big butt silly |
| He then pulled out a gun, I gave him a hug and said «Don't kill me.» |
| You don’t wanna waste a bullet on a bum like me, scum like me |
| I want my mommy, help me somebody |
| He started pulling my arm and jerkin me (Oww!) |
| Stop it man, you’re hurting me |
| Reminded I had a gun to my head |
| So I said ok certainly, you the man (Need a hand?) |
| Where’s Superman when you need him? |
| Should I feed him a knuckle sandwich |
| Or play possum and stop breathing? |
| I’m leavin, competition’s cool and all of that |
| But I didn’t get into rap to be attacked |
| I’m packin my backpack strap to bust a thinkin cap |
| And just laugh at the people who don’t know how to act |
| See the derailed hate the on track, in fact |
| Alone they cower, so the blind bind to find power |
| That’s why I’m lookin out like the Hubble |
| Telescope lens for the trouble |
| See when you’re as tight as Bowser’s trousers |
| Or «Saturday Night Fever» slacks |
| Macks and G’s attack, hopin you flee |
| Steady mobbin like Robinson Crusoe |
| It’s as primitive as can be |
| Now if you (if you) wanna know (wanna know) |
| The real deal about the crew |
| Well, don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
| I said, if you (if you) don’t know (don't know) |
| The real deal about the crew |
| Well, don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
| + (Andy Cooper) |
| Sometimes I feel I’ve got to run away |
| I’ve got to find a place to play like my own sandbox |
| So I can do a Mr. Spock (and use my Vulcan mind) |
| To leave the grit and grind behind the foul line |
| Shootin two, who’s the owl giving a hoot (Not you) |
| Help Woodsy spread the word to the so called nerd |
| To stay Huffy tough luff or get knocked on his duff |
| By a vulgar ogre, holder of all the hall passes |
| (Who broke into my locker and he smashed my glasses) |
| Courage fled Herman’s head but it was too late to back out |
| He took my lunch sack and went to the rack like Jerry Stackhouse |
| (Oooh!!) blackout, out comes the mouthpiece |
| But the Mick he quickly picked me back up on my feet |
| I said, look over there (Over where?) over there he looked |
| A left hook had him shook (That's the oldest trick in the book) |
| I followed through with the 1, 2, knockin him on his keister |
| Then leavin the barrio I said («Adios mister») |
| Pale rider, saddle bags tied tight |
| (Happy trails…) into the night |
| Now if you (if you) wanna know (wanna know) |
| The real deal about the crew |
| Don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
| I said, if you (if you) don’t know (don't know) |
| The real deal about the crew |
| Don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
| Don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
| Don’t you know (don't you know) |
| We’re Ugly Duckling, and we’re doing it just for you |
