| [00:00.30] |
Woo...grand groove, grand groove (2x) |
| [00:18.15] |
|
| [00:20.55] |
Rough, rough, rugged |
| [00:22.36] |
Tough like a nugget |
| [00:23.22] |
Listen to The Abstract Poetic, don't snub it |
| [00:25.70] |
The midnight marauder is the hype beat arranger |
| [00:28.21] |
Don't front on my lyrics or the tool 'cause it's danger |
| [00:30.85] |
Hook you like a junkie, you'll flip like a monkey |
| [00:33.43] |
To the openness of the rhythm, so proceed because I'm funky |
| [00:36.02] |
I get down, down like a fly hooker's panties |
| [00:38.81] |
Make you catch a spirit and motivate a fanny |
| [00:41.14] |
I be the fly poet, rappers, they get jelly |
| [00:43.93] |
Upset when I rock, 'cause yo, they rhymes is smelly |
| [00:46.44] |
See, I got it going on like a Forbes tax return |
| [00:49.00] |
Listening to these lyrics when it's hot will make it burn |
| [00:51.48] |
Baby burn, baby burn, up into the heavens |
| [00:54.23] |
The skies up above, the one you think of |
| [00:56.76] |
Is the highly regarded, hell of the people |
| [00:59.40] |
Your mic and my mic? Come on, yo, no equal (Word!) |
| [01:02.61] |
So if ya wanna do it to yourself |
| [01:04.52] |
That is to mess around with the jazz, then just blame yourself |
| [01:07.03] |
'Cause you made your bed, so now you lay in it |
| [01:09.69] |
That's your shit on the floor, then go and play in it |
| [01:12.41] |
I refuse to catch a 'L' in a battle |
| [01:14.91] |
'Cause yo, I got the jazz and I'll whup a rapper's ass |
| [01:17.63] |
Into little next to nuthin' |
| [01:18.83] |
Test me if I'm frontin' |
| [01:20.11] |
I'll pass with flying colors 'cause yo, I am that brotha that can rock |
| [01:23.12] |
|
| [01:23.48] |
Who got the jazz? (We've got the jazz) (Repeat 4X) |
| [01:30.40] |
We've got the jazz, we've got the jazz, come on |
| [01:33.46] |
Who got the jazz? (We've got the jazz) (Repeat 4X) |
| [01:40.62] |
We've got the jazz |
| [01:42.37] |
|
| [01:42.55] |
Come on, come on, Phife |
| [01:43.81] |
|
| [01:44.01] |
No need for introductions 'cause you know who I be |
| [01:46.00] |
(The Phife Dawg) Yep, the one who loves to slaugher MC's |
| [01:48.64] |
I got style, grace and razamatazz |
| [01:50.08] |
I'm like my girl Patrice Rushen, yo, I add pizzazz, now |
| [01:53.63] |
Most people remember Phife from the Phife like smoothness |
| [01:56.55] |
But now it's time to hit you with roughneck rudeness |
| [01:59.01] |
I'm still vexed, fuming, gots to come raw |
| [02:01.52] |
The first punk that tries to flex, I'll be cracking your jaw |
| [02:04.05] |
I'll mold you, fold you, roll you up like a spliff |
| [02:06.79] |
Don't ever try for test or else that ass will get whipped |
| [02:09.64] |
I'm forever poppin' junk, it's like a fat invite |
| [02:11.81] |
To any MC who wants to flex, yo, we can do this tonight |
| [02:14.45] |
Gel up my posse up on Linden and 1-9-2 |
| [02:17.09] |
Pull up my brothas from Sayers Ave., the Brooklyn Zoo |
| [02:19.65] |
All my crew up in Strong Island, so yo, don't sleep |
| [02:22.23] |
'Cause it only takes a beat to watch that ass get beat |
| [02:24.87] |
Brothas wanna play rough, but they can all get some |
| [02:27.27] |
Wanna be hero, but you're a zero, that means you gets none |
| [02:29.86] |
Don't ever try to step to a kid you can't get with |
| [02:32.60] |
Why mess with a brotha that your girl once slept with? |
| [02:35.48] |
I'm a negro, he's a negro, wanna be a negro too? |
| [02:38.04] |
But beatin' on a girl, is somethin' that a puss' would do |
| [02:40.54] |
I love jazz, but that doesn't mean that I'm timid |
| [02:43.05] |
Not really a gangsta rapper but I can swing it for a minute |
| [02:45.64] |
|
| [02:45.90] |
Who got the jazz? (We've got the jazz) (Repeat 4X) |
| [02:55.64] |
Come on |
| [02:56.16] |
Who got the jazz? (We've got the jazz) (Repeat 3X) |
| [03:05.05] |
We got the jazz, we got the jazz, come on |
| [03:06.40] |
|
| [03:06.64] |
I go...woo..., ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, grand groove, grand groove |
| [03:13.12] |
Yeah, and it's the beat |
| [03:14.01] |
Ah baby, ah baby, ah baby, ah baby |
| [03:16.88] |
Go ooh...ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...grand groove, grand groove |
| [03:22.10] |
Yeah, and it's the beat |
| [03:25.97] |
Check it out |
| [03:26.86] |
We got the jazz, y'all (Repeat 3X) |
| [03:30.86] |
Tear it up, y'all |
| [03:32.21] |
1, 2, y'all |
| [03:33.47] |
Tear it up, y'all |
| [03:34.88] |
We got the jazz, y'all |
| [03:36.05] |
Check it out, y'all |
| [03:37.31] |
(ad lib) |
