Now what if rappers had to write their own music
|
Instead of getting sampled stuff so they could use it
|
Over a beat that's nothing but a bass drum
|
Over and over making your ears numb
|
This is what happens when you sell out
|
Can't take the pressure so you're gonna have to bail out
|
Find a good beat so your song hits big
|
Then use it over and over at the gig
|
Bounce up and down to the thump of the drum
|
Pay no regard that the lyrics are dumb
|
Dance at a club that smells like a dump
|
You just can't avoid it, go to a club all you hear is...
|
|
[chorus]
|
Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump
|
Thump thump thump thump
|
|
Writin' a hit nowadays is easy
|
Write about sex, but don't make it sleazy
|
It doesn't matter if it comes out corny
|
America won't admit it but it's horny
|
Any kind of new cross-over will work
|
Even if the M.C. sounds like a jerk
|
All the real rappers don't get any airplay
|
The public doesn't wanna hear what they have to say,
|
all they wanna hear is...
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
Rap a couple lines and then sing
|
At every dance club it's the exact same thing
|
I'm gettin' sick of everybody sellin' out
|
'Cause they don't understand what the music's all about
|
Turn on the radio and thump in your car
|
Thump musicians think they're gonna go far
|
But I hope the thump fad doesn't stick, 'cause I'm tellin' you
|
I'm really gettin' sick of hearin' nothing on a beat but a...
|
