Paroles de The Negotiation Limerick File

"Bet you're wondering what's been goin' on
Bet you think I almost lost my mind"

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'm 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
Ah 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

"You're right man"

Sound sound sound sound sound sound
Sound sounds sweeter through the echolex You 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
C'mon Ah let's try to negotiate
C'mon uh Ah let's try to negotiate

"Bet you're wondering what's been goin' on
Bet you think I almost lost my mind"
"Bet you think I almost lost my mind"
