[00:10.610]I've been all around the world
[00:11.750]I've been a new sensation
[00:13.400]But it doesn't really matter
[00:14.440]In this de-generation
[00:16.080]The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
[00:18.700]And someone said it aint my scene
[00:20.480]'Cause they need a new song
[00:22.140]Like a new religion
[00:22.930]Music for the television
[00:24.350]I can't do the long division
[00:25.620]Someone do the math
[00:26.730]For the record label puts me
[00:27.970]on the shelf up in the freezer
[00:29.560]Got to find another way to live the life of leisure
[00:32.050]So I drop my top,
[00:33.610]Mix and I mingle
[00:34.870]Is everybody ready for the single and it goes...
[00:37.790]La La La La La
[00:41.460]Now listen closer to the verse I lay
[00:43.570](Ha La La La La)
[00:47.150]It's all about the wordplay
[00:48.590](Ha La La La Love)
[00:52.530]The wonderful thing it does
[00:53.740]Because, because
[00:54.380]I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
[00:56.490]Yeah the Mister A-Z
[00:57.620]They say I'm all about the wordplay
[01:00.160]
[01:05.370]And it's time to get ill I got your remedy
[01:07.210]For those who don't remember me
[01:08.620]Well let me introduce you to my style
[01:11.280]I try to keep a jumble
[01:12.350]And the lyrics never mumble
[01:13.780]When the music's makin' people tongue-tied
[01:16.100]You want a new song
[01:17.320]Like a new religion
[01:18.040]Music for the television
[01:19.420]I can't do the long division
[01:20.820]Someone do the math
[01:22.090]For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder
[01:24.790]Got to find another way to keep from goin' under
[01:27.420]Pull out the stops,
[01:29.160]Got your attention
[01:30.800]I guess it's time again for me to mention
[01:32.830]The wordplay
[01:33.710]La La La La La
[01:37.240]Now listen closer to the verse I lay
[01:39.420](Ha La La La La)
[01:42.970]It's all about the wordplay
[01:44.440](Ha La La La Love)
[01:47.860]The wonderful thing it does
[01:49.340]Because, because
[01:50.630]I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
[01:52.930]Yeah the Mister A-Z
[01:54.010]They say I'm all about the wordplay
[01:57.330]
[01:58.070]I built a bridge across the stream of consciousness
[02:00.260]It always seems to be a flowin'
[02:01.820]But I don't know which way my brain is goin'
[02:03.680]Oh the ryhmin' and the timin'
[02:05.250]Keeps the melodies inside me
[02:06.650]And they're climbin'
[02:07.380]'Til I'm running out of air
[02:09.160]Are you prepared to take a dive
[02:10.500]into the deep end of my head
[02:12.780]Are you listening to a single word I've said
[02:18.730]Ha La La La La
[02:22.940]Listen closer to the words I say
[02:25.100]Ha La La La La
[02:28.490]I'm stickin' with the wordplay
[02:30.380]Ha La La La Love
[02:33.260]The wonderful thing it does
[02:35.200]Because, because
[02:36.200]I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
[02:38.660]Yeah the Mister A-Z
[02:39.880]They say I'm all about the wordplay
[02:41.860]Ha La La La La
[02:45.670]I'm all about the wordplay
[02:47.170]Ha La La La La
[02:51.060]I'm stickin' with the wordplay
[02:52.930]Ha La La La Love
[02:56.500]I love the wonderful thing it does
[02:58.070]Because, because
[02:59.590]The ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's i'm back in love
[03:01.950]For the Mister A-Z they say
[03:03.420]It's all about the wordplay
[03:06.190]
