[Chorus]
|
S-H-I-N-I-N on the funk
|
And listen to the emcees rhymin on the funk
|
We solemnly swear to never bust a style that's bunk
|
So listen to the way that we're rhyming on the funk
|
|
[Shock G]
|
Now we would like to ask you
|
Have you ever heard this style befo'
|
You gotta say no
|
Cause there ain't no denying
|
And if you say yes you're lying
|
People are always wondering
|
What's up with the Underground
|
Are they down?
|
Or is just another new sound
|
We're saying things
|
And when we use a beat we use it right
|
Cause we're not just playing things
|
Spitting rhymes
|
Like a Tommy gun spraying things
|
So when you see us onstage
|
Don't just stare us down
|
Or compare our sound
|
To any other crew ya like
|
Yo, judge how ya like
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Money-B]
|
Riding this like a roller coaster
|
Hugging the curves and dipping
|
Like I'm supposed to do
|
For the Underground troupe
|
Cause I know I'm the poop
|
Steaming hot
|
Stinking up the dance floor
|
Gonna do it freelance
|
For the funk, my friends
|
And all the others in the industry
|
They want to get with me
|
(Shock: Why is that, Mon?)
|
Maybe it's my smooth flow
|
They know this guy is dope
|
So they get hip to the style I'm using
|
It's called Raw Fusion
|
Ain't no time for ego-tripping
|
Let it be known
|
There'll be no slipping on mine
|
Cause all I want
|
Is a chunk of this Underground funk
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Shock G]
|
Yo, Money-B
|
|
[Money-B]
|
What's up cold Shock G?
|
|
[Shock G]
|
Check it out, would you tell the people what we mean
|
|
[Money-B]
|
What do you mean what we mean?
|
|
[Shock G]
|
You know what I mean
|
Tell 'em what we mean
|
When we're R-H-Y-M-I-N on the funk
|
Let 'em know that we got spunk
|
|
[Money-B]
|
We got it
|
|
[Shock G]
|
And when I count to three
|
Go on and hit some of that humpty-hump
|
One, two, three
|
|
[Money-B]
|
Well, I'm humpty-humping
|
You know that I'm saying something
|
The funk's in your face
|
Gonna keep the place jumping
|
As the beat keeps pumping
|
I'm tick-tocking 'em
|
Dope rhymes, I'm dropping 'em
|
On the twenty-four track
|
And there ain't no stopping 'em
|
It's too late to put the tape on pause
|
Because we're
|
|
[funk sample interlude]
|
|
[Money-B]
|
Tell me if you think the beat is nasty
|
Well get ready, we're going to get sweaty
|
Just in case I hope you brought a towel in
|
I'm on the prowl when I hear the bass growling
|
|
[Shock G]
|
Growling like a big bass monster
|
On a rampage, it's like we were onstage
|
Shock G speaking from the Underground
|
|
[Money-B]
|
Do they understand?
|
|
[Shock G]
|
I really don't give a damn
|
Cause we're
|
|
[Chorus]
|
