Lyrics
0:09Babies babble on they looking for excuses
0:11Game for the buzzer who kicked it to the mooses
0:13Lame as a brain could be golly gee
0:15If you see a shrink he'll charge you a fee
0:17If you see me ya see the fee is nothing
0:20Fee will be for patience all backs no fronting
0:22What is a party if it doesn't really rock
0:24What is a poet
0:25All balls no cock
0:26What is a war if it doesn't have a general
0:28What's Channel 9 if it doesn't have Arsenio
0:30What is life if you don't have fun
0:33What is a what if you ain't got a gun
0:35What's Ali without Shaheed Muhammad
0:37Nothing Kapelka makes you vomit
0:39What is a Quest if the players ain't willing
0:41What is a pence if you don't have a shilling
0:44Excuse me if I'm chilling hey what say what
0:46What's a fat man without food in his gut
0:48What's a child birth without the umbilical
0:50What's United Parcels without the deliverer
0:52What's momma san without poppa san
0:54What's martial arts without Daniel San
0:57What's Rasheed without Tonya Tamika
0:59What's Oran Juice and Doug E. Doug without Shaniqua
1:01Nada nada nada not a damn thing
1:03What's Duke Ellington without that swing
1:05What's Alex Haley if it doesn't have roots
1:08What's a weekend if you ain't knocking boots
1:10What's a black nation without black unity
1:12What is a child who doesn't know puberty
1:14What is my label when I exit womb status
1:16What's menage a tois or that is
1:18What is sex when you have three people
1:21What are laws if they ain't fair and equal
1:23What's Clark Kent without a telephone booth
1:25What is a liquor if it ain't 80 proof
1:27What are the youth if they ain't rebelling
1:29What's Ralph Kramden if he ain't yelling
1:31At Ed Norton what is coke snorting
1:34What is position if there is no contorting
1:36What is hip-hop if it doesn't have violence
1:38Chill for a minute Doug E. Fresh said silence
1:45What is a Glock if you don't have a clip
1:47What's a lollipop without the Good Ship
1:49What's S&M if you don't have chains
1:51What's a con artist if he doesn't have brains
1:53What's America without greed and glamour
1:56What's an MC if he doesn't have stamina
1:58What's music factory without Mr. Walt
2:00What's Trugoy without a phrase called talk
2:02What's Chris Lighty if he wasn't such a baby
2:04What is a woman if she didn't say maybe
2:06Baby laid down I removed the frown
2:09What would be my penal cord if it wasn't brown
2:11What is a paper without a president
2:13What is a compound without a element
2:15What is a jam if you don't spike the punch
2:17What's a brewski if you don't bite brunch
2:19Oooh ooh it's like that you keep going
2:22Freak freak y'all cause you know that we showing
2:24What tigga what tigga what tigga what tigga
2:26What tigga what tigga what tigga what
