Yeah, know what I mean Rick?
|
Know what I mean Rick?
|
Know what I mean Slick, Whoa!
|
Yeah, whee!
|
|
[Slick Rick]
|
Fine grown Pine-Sol
|
Heavenly rhyme throne
|
Remember when you were young in the 70 time zone
|
Stages, ages about seven I say kid
|
The dress code of our parents looked awfully outrageous
|
Not down on em, games and clownin
|
When soul was at it's highest rate like James Brown 'n them
|
[??], A groovy era acting
|
Member seeing Shaft in the movie theater back then?
|
I feel Richard Roundtree got 'em a fly deal
|
Black man wearin' bell bottom and high heels
|
Laughed a lot, some action mass production
|
Remember when cars were darn near half a block long?
|
Parents were so into that crap
|
Bunch a sweet memories to us older rap cats
|
Muhammad Ali knucklin in tournament
|
Pimp daddy hats with buckles and ornaments
|
How we forget snappy
|
Five people sleepin' in one matress and yet happy
|
Could even make sex seem sour
|
As I impress the world with my extreme power, cause
|
|
[Chorus: x2]
|
|
Rick make memories sealed in almanacs
|
Not to mention the immence appeal the mack hat
|
When you wake up in the morning (redeem from any crap)
|
Because I bring that love and feeling back to rap
|
|
[Slick Rick]
|
For situated as poor beneficialator
|
Kool-Aid couldn't last a hot minute in the 'frigerator
|
School notes, slidin and stealin, hidin 'em
|
Bazooka, bubble gum cartoons still inside of 'em
|
No way same essence of ?
|
Pimps flyest dressin' muthafuckas, weren't they?
|
But hood lies, you afraid of a good wine?
|
I used to love the actor who portrayed one on Good Times
|
You need a friend to ? a soul, man it kinda slow
|
One thing 'bout a bro, overflow when it ?
|
Life, a pitiful game
|
'Member the robot?
|
That was my shit on Soul Train
|
Got hyped to, psyched to,
|
And the feelin's right to chillin' on the fire
|
escape on a nice night too
|
No, I'm not gon' try to hurt the ?
|
Remember ride on blood and dry turkey slang?
|
Brothers chippin' in for alcoholic money
|
When you look at old flicks don't we all look funny?
|
Could even make sex seem sour
|
As I impress the world with my extreme power, cause
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Slick Rick]
|
Yo' mama, damn we used to talk improper then
|
Member when we used to walk bop, walk bop again?
|
Givin' them the rythym that we bought
|
Push our hand back like we was swimmin' when we walked
|
Bad all about, Huggie Bear, Rat all about
|
Member afros, what the fuck was that all about?
|
Buenos noches accents too...friends too
|
Everybody had a lot of roaches back then too
|
Profusely around us, Loosley ?
|
Fleets wearin' Bruce Lee Bandanas
|
And kick shit, ballin the hand I stick wit'
|
[?????]
|
Most cases, fatha' away for good
|
Local Flat Foot was part-of the neighborhood
|
Standard, and the panthers (Wow)
|
Used to dress like Erykah Badu and Amanda's now
|
Could even make sex seem sour
|
As I impress the world with my extreme power, cause
|
|
[Chorus x1.5]
|
