James Brown- "get down"
|
|
[Fresh Prince] It's new, it's out of the ordinary
|
It's rather extrordinary,
|
so yo bust this commentary
|
A literary, genius, and a superior beat creator
|
have come together, and we made a
|
musical composition which we think is a remedy
|
to cure all the dance floors that's empty
|
You wanna dance? We got what you want
|
Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince bustin out with the brand new funk
|
|
-Get down brand new funk-hit it
|
|
It was kind of an accident, the way that it happened
|
One day I was rappin, and on the beat, Jeff was backin me up
|
And all of a sudden, he brought in a cut And I dropped my microphone and said, "What the...? Hold up, Jeff, wait a minute, play it"
|
He just smiled and said, "Yeah def ain't it?"
|
It was {funky} it made wanna {get, get down!} And we knew almost at once it was the {brand new funk}
|
So we continued to listen to it
|
And we knew it was def when I started rappin to it
|
So I gave a hi-five to Jeff and without hesitation popped in my cassette
|
I took it home that night, and analyzed it
|
Rewound the tape over and over, and memorized it
|
That Friday, we went to the club And out and out cold tore it up!
|
You shoulda seen the people dancin and shakin and movin and jumpin and spinnin and clappin, while the beatboxin was groovin and screamin and yellin while on the microphone I was flowin
|
Fresh rhymes I was showin, the people say, "Yo keep goin" So I continued to rock, while Jeff was on the beatbox Special assistance from my homeboy Ready Rock
|
People barged just to get up front to get a bird's eye view of what we call the brand new funk
|
Ge-Ge-Get down-hit it
|
|
Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat} Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat} Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat} * Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches * Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat} Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat} Yo Jeff! {Rock the beat with your hands..}
|
|
Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches * Now get funky with the beat!
|
Jeff starts spinning backwards * Now turn it all around!
|
The most original, amazing, astounding, miraculous remarkable, startling, sensational, stupendous music
|
that has ever been created is ours - but believe me it was complicated
|
But we have done it, so now we can breathe a long awaited sigh of relief
|
This isn't a publicity stunt It's the raw untouched, pure, hard brand new funk!
|
|
{Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} * Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches * {Rock the beat with your hands..} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} {Rock the beat} * Jazzy Jeff cuts and scratches * {Rock the beat with your hands..}
