SUPER DISCO BREAKIN
50 cups of coffee and you
know it's on
I move the crowd to the
break of break of dawn
Can't rock the house without
the party people
Cause when we're gettin
down we are all equal
There's no better or worse
between you and me
But I rock the mic so viciously
Like pins and needles and
words that sting
At the blink of an eye I
will do my thing
Like a needle in the cartridge
when the record spins
Like diggin down deep in
the record bins
Everybody gettin down make
no mistake
Nothing sounds quite like
an 8 0 8
Money Makin Money Money Makin
Manhattan
Super Disco Disco Breakin'
Sometimes I like to brag
sometimes I'm soft spoken
When I'm in Holland I eat
the pannenkoeken
I got the spice you bring
the sauce
You can kiss my ass you
funky boss
Now that you got what you
want, you want more
I'll be with the hammer
and the nail at your door
With these funky beats I
be goin' head huntin'
Shouts to my peeps let me
know if you feel something
I can give you all you need
A little beat for the rhythm
and some words to read
Let me tell you now that's
my favorite shit
And when I got a new rhyme
I just say it
So Money Makin Money Money
Makin Manhattan
Super Disco Disco Breakin'
THE MOVE
Hello..
It's times like this when
I just can't stop
Can't wind your body without
the body rock
Got schemes schematics blue
prints on file
You gotta have dreams to
make it all worthwhile
So as I take my time and
realign
I wonder what it is I hope
to find
I don't mean to brag I don't
mean to boast
But I'm intercontinental
when I eat french toast
Adrock with the New Addition
Edition
Gettin on down for the year
2000
A slight distraction can
get you paid
And when it comes to that
type shit I paved the way
BBoys to the early morn
BGirls be rockin on and
on
BGirls to the break of dawn
BBoys be rockin on and on
Dogs love me cause I'm crazy
sniffable
I bet you never knew I got
the ill peripheral
In your home I'm cloned
I'm on your headphones
I love it when you spazz
out all alone
Cause I'm that fool that
broke the key
I'm unlockable so don't
check me
Got weight on my shoulders
and things on my mind
The sky is falling and I'm
falling behind
So I synthesize sounds as
I patch my brain
Insane mind games move quick
like flames
So now I wonder how sometimes
you never know
Who be rockin y'all in stereo
in stereo in stereo in stereo
No time like the present
to work shit out
That's what I'm going on
and on and on about
Not fakin just makin beats
in the dungeon
Keep that shit funky cause
the odor is pungent
No shame in my game just
par for the path
I try to hone my craft because
at hands the task
But I find I'm not playing
with a full deck
I'm up to my neck like Toulouse
Lautrec
All I wanna know is when
is checkout time
So I could be in heaven
with the rhythm rock rhyme
And when I'm with my man
Shadi rock at the gates
We'll be rockin rhythms
over disco breaks
BBoys to the early morn
BGirls be rockin on and
on
BGirls to the break of dawn
BBoys be rockin on and on
REMOTE CONTROL
Things get hectic quick
From the satellite dish
to your joy stick
It's the night of the living
cable box
Wires coming up from around
the block
Remote control to change
the station
But that won't change your
situation
Have you seen what I mean
I'm the little gnome that's
in your dreams
So I say this rhyme built
by design
To take you beyond space
and time
Said who is the man making
diamonds out of coal
The man pushing buttons
on remote control
Until your back's up against
the wall
You never know yourself
that much at all
So you've got to share your
love with a friend
That's all that you've got
left in the end
Living in this city of pure
confusion
People mislead by their
own illusion
All this action, no satisfaction
We're all linked together
like a chain reaction
Play or fold, love is bold
What is the future that
will unfold?
Some like it hot, others
like it cold
But we all want to hold
the remote control
Things get hectic quick
All of the sudden I'm in
the thick
Too much drama all around
Distractions booming in
sensuround
Like a rainy day's Earth
won't sit still
Sliding on down a hill
Sometimes life seems to
stall
So never be ungrateful y'all
So I got a little something
for your pay per view
Like Don King I've got the
crazy hair do
We've got cameras on Mars
on space patrol
Controlled on Earth by remote
control
SONG FOR THE MAN
What makes you feel
And why you gotta be
Like you got the right
To look her up and down
What makes this world
So sick and evil
I know you don't know
What makes you feel
Like you got miracle whip
appeal
Who made you the judge an
jury
Ain't you never heard of
privacy
What makes this world
So sick and evil
You figure it out
JUST A TEST
Like a flag at half mast
as frames click fast
Not a thing will last as
past is past
Like stacks of thoughts
that got played and worn
Used over and over till
they were tired and torn
Like a broken clock that
can't tell time
Like a thick ass book that's
filled with wack rhymes
Like a scorching blaze that
burned the sand
Like a band that planned
and planned and planned
And flew down like a raven
in the dark of night
And snatched up the worm
helpless to fight
And brought it back to the
nest singing microphone check
One two one two this is
just a test
Like sand in one hand You
can't hold for long
Like scheming on a plan
that goes all wrong
Like fudge and caramel they're
not the same
And it's a shame all you
talk is game
You act like a diamond waiting
to be set
In a gold ring, as if, I
bet
As time goes by in this
give and take
As long as I learn I will
make mistakes
What do I want? What do
I need?
Why do I want it? What's
in it for me?
It's the imagery of technology
Is what you get is what
you see
Don't worry your mind
When you give it your best
One two one two this is
just a test
BODY MOVIN'
Body movin, body movin,
A1 sound, sound so soothing
Body movin, body movin,
We be getting down and you
know we're crush groovin
Let me get some action from
the back section
We need body rocking not
perfection
Let your back bone flip
but don't slip a disc
Let your spine unwind just
take a risk
I wanna do the freak until
the break of dawn
Tell me party people is
that so wrong
The ship is docking, inter-lockin
And up-rockin electro-shocking
We're getting down computer
action
Do the robotic satisfaction
All of y'all get off the
wall
Have a ball and get involved
with
Body movin, body movin with
the A-1 sound sound so soothing
Flame on, I'm gone
I'm so sweet like a nice
bon bon
Came out rapping when I
was born
Mom said rock it 'til the
break of dawn
Puttin bodies in motion
cause I got the notion
Like Roy Cormier with the
coconut lotion
The sound of the music drivin
you insane
You can't explain to people
this type of mind frame
Like a bottle of Chateau
Neuf Du Pap
I'm fine like wine when
I start to rap
We need body rockin not
perfection
Let me get some action from
the back section
Body movin, body movin,
A1 sound, sound so soothing
Body movin, body movin,
We be getting down and you
know we're crush groovin
Mike D with the master plan
Ooh my my and thank you
ma'am
And when I grab the mic
you scream Ooh god damn
The creme de la creme is
who I am
MCA where have you been
Packed like sardines in
the tin
So kick off your shoes and
put on your swim fins
Cause when it comes to quarries
I'm known to swim
Adrock light up the place
And if you pull my card
you pull the ace
And if you ask me turn up
the bass
And if you play defender
I could be your hyper space
Body movin'
INTERGALACTIC
Intergalactic Planetary Planetary
Intergalactic Another Dimension
Don't you tell me to smile
You stick around I'll make
it worth your while
Got numbers beyond what
you can dial
Maybe it's because I'm so
versatile
Style profile I said
It always brings me back
when I hear Ooh Child
>From the Hudson River out
to the Nile
I run the marathon just
up until the very last mile
If you battle me I will
revile
People always say my style
is wild
You've got gall you've got
guile
To step to me I'm a rapophile
If you want to battle you're
in denial
Coming from Uranus to check
my style
Go ahead put my rhymes on
trial
Cast you off into exile
Intergalactic planetary
Planetary intergalactic
Jazz and Awol that's our
team
Step inside the party disrupt
the whole scene
When it comes to beats well
I'm a fiend
I like my sugar with coffee
and cream
Got to keep it going keep
it going full steam
Too sweet to be sour too
nice to be mean
On the tough guy style I'm
not too keen
To try to change the world
I will plot and scheme
Mario C likes to keep it
clean
Gonna shine like a sunbeam
Keep on rapping cause that's
my dream
Got an A from Moe Dee for
sticking to themes
When it comes to envy y'all
is green
Jealous of the rhyme and
the rhyme routine
Another dimension new galaxy
Intergalactic planetary
Intergalactic planetary
Planetary intergalactic
From the family tree of old
school hip hop
Kick off your shoes and
relax your socks
The rhymes will spread just
like a pox
Cause the music is live
like an electric shock
I am known to do the Wop
Also known for the Flintstone
Flop
Tammy D getting biz on the
crop
Beastie Boys known to let
the beat drop
When I wrote graffiti my
name was Slop
If my rap's soup my beats
is stock
Step from the tables as
I start to chop
I'm a lumber jack DJ Adrock
If you try to knock me you'll
get mocked
I'll stir fry you in my
wok
Your knees'll start shaking
and your fingers pop
Like a pinch on the neck
of Mr. Spock

PUTTING SHAME IN YOUR
GAME
Beatsie Beatsie Boys gettin
live on the spot
Puttin all kinds of shame
in the game you got
We keep the party movin
to the broad day light
g.e.t.l.i.v.e. alright
Transhypnotic robotic can't
stop it
No limits to this style
you know you can't lock it
First you mock it, rock
it and then you stock it
But I've got the styles
that are always in the pocket
Like a bird floating down
on a New York breeze
Every thought in the mind
is a planted seed
So watch the mind or the
thoughts will stack
Before you know it they're
boomeranging on back
I'm the king of boogle there
is none higher
I get 11 points off the
word quagmire
Fools can't see me and that's
how it is
And that's how I like it
cause that's my biz
Beatsie Beatsie Boys gettin
live on the spot
Puttin all kinds of shame
in the game you got
We keep the party movin
to the broad day light
g.e.t.l.i.v.e. alright
Time's an illusion as the
moments race by
Too fast to really grasp
though we may try
Deny, till we die, ooh my
my
These thoughts that mislead
and then multiply
Second by second and minute
by minute
It's like lotto you gotta
be in it to win it
Shakin mind breakin on their
own demise
Lies tax to the max and
they'll be feelin those vibes
So tell me what you need
that you have got
Fiending on power will make
your blood clot
It starts with the greed
and then goes all wrong
That's why we can't all
just get along
We're all connected like
a Leggo set
One equaling one together
like a croquette
Whether we have or have
not yet met
It ain't no thing and it
ain't no sweat
Beatsie Beatsie Boys gettin
live on the spot
Puttin all kinds of shame
in the game you got
We keep the party movin
to the broad day light
g.e.t.l.i.v.e. alright
You're caught in a panic
and it's rattled your brain
The selfish ways just can't
maintain
But these are the breaks
when you try and come fake
Don't come with the rhymes
that you just half baked
I'm the Benihana chef on
the SP12
I chop the fuck out the
beats left on the shelf
You be like hello nasty
where you been
It's time you brought the
grimy beats out the dungeon
I jumped outside the house
with my Walkman on
I get so hyped when I hear
this song
It's gonna keep me happy
like all day long
So go and talk shit cause
it just makes me strong
Don't grease my palm with
your filthy cash
Multinationals spreading
like a rash
I might stick around or
I might be a fad
But I won't sell my songs
for no TV ad
Beatsie Beatsie Boys gettin
live on the spot
Puttin all kinds of shame
in the game you got
We keep the party movin
to the broad day light
g.e.t.l.i.v.e. alright

FLOWIN' PROSE
I'm flowing prose to cons
and cons to pros
I'm scheming rhyme against
reason like it was flow against know
But beyond the concepts
and emotions that rise
To the interconnectedness
that underlies
The lies upon lies have
lost their meaning
The plies upon plies of
consciousness that is being
Over and over I fall I learned
to walk from a crawl
It's not sad it's just the
way and the purpose of it all
Now every word that you heard
that I said that you felt
Was put in place in the
space as they were shuffled and dealt
I steal feels from reels
but I pay my respects
Paying compliments and disses
and deciphering affects
Words are water as I court
her, as she is pristine
Words and mics fall to dust
and all that's left is the feelings
I give in and I win I try
to never complain
Intentions venture to center
and then they set the stage
But I'll remain sane making
gain without pain
Staining trains with names
and driving lanes to the refrain
And keep it positive as
painstaking as it is
I'll never turn back cause
that's the way I've got to live
So like a cloud carries rain
I'm gonna carry my rhyme
Coming like thunder with
lightening timing
No hesitation in gestation
of thoughts and plans
Ferment time like wine no
ploys or scams
Like the islands dot the
oceans in the endless seas
Ideas coming to me in answer
to my pleas
Woke up this morning right
out of a dream
Reached for my pen and pad
because my mind was on a rhyme scheme
What can I do with these
bones and flesh?
With these animated thoughts
in a world repressed?
I'm going down like the
rhythms on the winds of change
I'm keeping calm under pressure
like a deep-sea range
I'm flowing prose to cons
and cons to pros
I'm like Toucan Sam when
I follow my nose
I'm giving shouts to Gandhi,
Gravy and King
His Holiness and all enlightened
beings
I'll be the one who screams
it on the microphone
I'll be the one who brings
it inside your home
But the words ain't mine
I just pass em along
For Betty Williams and her
friends I sing this song
And more ink from my pen
and more tears from my eyes
And more crimes are committed
as I say these lines
AND ME
Once again I'm all wrapped
up in me
My best friend's my own
worst enemy
Electricity and gravity
Oh my god now take a look
at me
My life line's run by AT&T
They got their wires all
up in me
Is push and pull the way
it's got to be
Once again I'm all wrapped
up in me and me
THREE MC'S AND ONE DJ
Cause nobody can do it like
Mix Master Mike can,
Come on now
I've got the D double O,
D double O style
Here we go again because
it's been awhile
Do me a favor don't touch
that dial
I rock from Manhattan to
the Miracle Mile
My name's Mike D and I'm
the ladies choice
I want to get next to you
like Rose Royce
Y'all gather round to hear
my golden voice
Cause when its time to rhyme
you know I get noice
Cruising like a fan boat
on the glade
He'll tweak ass your ass
across the cross fade
So watch your back when
he takes the stage
Or he'll send you off on
a naked rampage
3 MC's and one DJ
We be getting down with
no delay
Mix Master Mike what cha
got to say
Sweet and sour like a tangerine
Fresh like a box of Krispy
Kremes
Kenny Rogers' Gambler is
my gambling theme
Mix Master Mike with the
scratch routine
Always updated and in the
know
You know we break it down
going toe to toe
The bass is booming from
down below
And Norton is chillin with
Mario
Well my name is Adrock I'm
a Scorpio
Don't ask me cause I just
don't know
I'm known to mop I'm known
to glow
But don't get mad cause
I got to go
Three MC's and one DJ
We be getting down with
no delay
Mix Master Mike what cha
got to say
Mix Master cut faster
All top secret and classified
I grab a hold of a mic and
let the words glide
It's all hypnotic and sanctified
I never wanna let a bad
day slip by
We be getting stupid in
your area
Causing all kinds of hysteria
My beats is sick like malaria
But don't worry I'll take
care of ya
Me and Adam Adam and Mario
C
When we're in the studio
it's the place to be
To all beings everywhere
be happy and free
With Mix Master Mike we're
making history
Three MC's and one DJ
We be getting down with
no delay
Mix Master Mike what you
got to say
THE GRASSHOPPER UNIT (KEEP
MOVIN')
Dear Alex and Marilyn
They're Lovey and Thurston
howellin
The grasshopper unit is
prowellin
And Rufus is back home growellin
For all of y'all that are
dozin
On Hornblower's lederhosen
Like Walt Disney he'll be
frozen
And then the Swiss Hall
of Fame he goes in
Cause when he's out in space
carousin
Pick up my mic and start
joustin
His name plate medallion
Says never trust a hal 9000
Check the horizontal hold
and check the tint
Are these three fools back
at it again
Inspector Clouseau and Derek
Flint
Nothin but sparks ignitin'
Check two one two mic testin
This one goes out to Dechen
Rise fallen fighters take
your stance again
Don't think too much about
the color of skin
Order in vegetarian sharks
fin
Try to keep my life non
violent
Rewind the tape and punch
me in
Like Chuck D with the where
you never been I'm in
I'm a long way from where
I've been but I gotta keep movin'
Ooh my my I'm really not
feeling it
Ooh my my something's really
wrong
The p.a. sound is deafenin
Bitin MCs I'm oustinin
With spinach in your teeth
you're grinnin
So on your way out please
take a mint
Got the studio to throw
a craze in
The basslines Yauch just
lays in
This song is the grass you're
grazin
Add a little flange and
phase in
Don't get mad 'cause I'm
beguilin
I'm off the hook so don't
bother dialin
They're gonna put me in
the b.i.n.
And if I die notify the
next of kin
It's like that y'all
SONG FOR JUNIOR
I'm hypnotized by you
I DON'T KNOW
What's pleasing to the eye
In the delusion of my sight
Is not what I find when
I reach into the light
I have lost my mind
I'm walking through time
Deluded as the next guy
Pretending and hoping to
find
That distant peace of mind
I don't know
Who does know
There is no
Where to go
It's not so simple as I try
to wish
But then again what is?
There is no other worthy
quest
So on I go
THE NEGOTIATION LIMERICK
FILE
My DJ's got the cuts and
the beats are on
We're comin with the limericks
and we're comin' strong
And the rhythm's on time
to every word and rhyme
When it comes to keep it
real I keep it really wrong
At the risk of sounding
crass I would like to mention
That I am well aware of
your wack intentions
To usurp my prose you so
and so
It's my primary bone of
contention
I tell you everybody I've
had it
With all these people with
static
I'll go insane if it don't
rain
Sucker MC's are problematic
I love it when you hit those
switches
A curve ball's what my pitch
is
So here we here we come
Like dum ditty dum
I keep all five boroughs
in stitches
The sound sounds sweeter
through the echolex
It'll spin you around and
throw you in a hex
Until you feel no pain inside
your brain
All your worries are soothed
by the sound effects
Read it in the Post and the
Daily News
Listen everybody let's show
improve
Don't let me begin about
heroin
Living six feet deep just
ain't the move
We're giving you soul power
I like it sweet and sour
When it comes to rhymes
and beat designs
I'm at the control tower
Tell me what makes you so
afraid
Of all those people you
say you hate
Just give it one time for
your mind
And let's try to negotiate
ELECTRIFY
Words comin forth like water
from the tap
Clap tracks line the spaces
places papers people stack
Back track through the minutes
when the thoughts went insane
I pulled the picture off
the cover and blew out the mind games
People say this is the playlist
of the void non-bound
But I can say this is the
plainness of the peace I've found
It's not the sorrow or the
pity that we hope to dismantle
It's the cast of past dice
lighting both ends of the candles
Scandelescent in the means
I have dreamed on the schemes
Reunited in the times of
such picturesque scenes
Can I get a witness to testify
Open your eyes realize electrify
So I plan and I scam and
write it off on my taxes
It's times like these I'll
just go with the decisions of the masses
And to the crowds who've
come before with their profit massing ways
To the greed that fucked
it up and brought it down to today
With pain I stand sane and
remain holding strong
Whilst all around me those
who clowned me are now drowning by the throngs
It's illogical the actions
that are typically displayed
A set back ain't all that
much problem to invade
So I will glow like a lantern
on a new moon night
I'll fight violence with
these hands that weren't built to fight
But like a furnace burning
coal my goals are bound to burn in flames
Whether achieved or dismantled
by the agendas displayed
Can I get a witness to testify?
Open your eyes realize electrify
PICTURE THIS
Something on the windowsill
Caught her eye and held
her still
The cars pass by outside
Nowhere left to hide
Picture this now crystal
clear
Nothing left to hold her
here
And creeping up meanwhile
Traces of a smile
Eyes open wide to see if
I could fly
UNITE
Goin off the hook like Latrell
Spreewell
I've got the ill technique
so you know me fe well
We be kickin bass all up
in your face
And when it comes to beats
well I'm the rhythm ace
Now if you check my pulse
it beats skull snaps
I keep all my rhymes in
my Le Sportsac
So what if I'm a ham and
cheese on rye
I got to do my thing and
that's no lie
Well ice is cold and fire
is hot
When it comes to competition
we've got them locked
U.N.I.T.E.
A little shout to Ian and
little Zoe
One can wonder why but can't
deny
If we could work it out
it would be so fly
We'll never know unless
we try
So tell me party people
what's your zodiac sign
Breakdancers of the world
unite
BBoys of the world unite
I went inside the deli and
my man's like what
I write the songs that make
the whole world suck
I need to break it down
every chance I get
So "Ssshhh we keep it raw
on the set"
Automation circulation
This is for the people all
around the nations
I got books with hooks and
it looks like rain
Would someone on the Knicks
please drive the lane
Now rhymes are montaquilla
on a track by us
I've got to keep my mind
clear so I don't bust
If you got bad breath then
maybe try scope
And if you wash your ass
you best use soap
People of the world you
realize
We got to get together and
harmonize
I feel I'm comin down with
the bugallo flu
Ravers of the world unite
We're the scientists of sound
We're mathematically puttin'
it down
When lightning strikes best
grab a ground
Got to get up to get down
I've got the terminator style
with a touch of the tweak
Technique 1200's I'm known
to freak
I don't like to fight, I
don't carry a piece
I wear permanent press so
I'm always creased
Mike D with the rump shakin
action
Do it like this for the
intergalaction
I practice asana daily so
I'm very flexible
I'm a Scorpio so you know
I'm very sexual
Shouts to Rach and my brother
Matthew
In money makin it's how
we do
I be smokin roaches in the
vestibule
In the next millennium I'll
still be old school (Ron)
HIGH ROLLER BIG BALLER
I call em crullers but you
know they're called CRAWLERS
We keep it movin to the
broad daylight
BGirls of the world unite
alright
Keep it on and on
INSTANT DEATH
And what do you do when
Your man kills himself and
How do I make friends now
And where is my Mom
I need to show her that
She taught me
And please let me
Die an instant death
Venom are from Newcastle.
