Lyrics

Scenario

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Here we go yo, here we go yo

So what, so what, so what's the scenario

Here we go yo, here we go yo

So what, so what, so what's the scenario

Ay yo bo knows this (what?)

And bo knows that (what?)

But bo don't know Jack

Cause bo can't rap

Well whaddya know

The di-dawg, is first up to bat no

Batteries included, and no strings attached

No holds barred, no time for move

Fakin gots to get the loot

So I can bring home the bacon brothers front

They say the tribe can't flow

But we've been known to do the impossible

Like broadway

Joe so sleep if you want

Like we'll help you get your z's troop

But here's the real scoop

I'm all that and then some

Short dark and handsome

Bust a nut inside

Your eye, to show you where I come from

I'm vexed, fumin, I've had it up to here

My days of payin dues are over

Acknowledge me as in there (yeah)

Head for the border, go get a taco

I'll be wreckin from the jump street

Meaning from the get-go

Sit back, relax and let yourself go

Don't sweat what you heard

But act like you know

Yes yes y'all (yes y'all!)

Who got the vibe it's the tribe y'all (tribe y'all!)

Real live y'all (live y'all!)

Inside outside come around (who's that??)

Brown some may

I say, call me charlie

The word is the herb and I'm deep like bob marley

Layback on the payback, [evolve rotate the gates?]

Contact! Can I get a hit? (hit!)

Boom bip with a brother

Named tip and we're ready to flip

East coast stompin, rippin and rompin New York

North cak-a-laka, and compton

Checka-checka-check it out!

The loops for the troops

More bounce to the ounce

And wow how now wow how now

Brown cow we're ill

Till the skill gets down for the flex

Next, it's the textbook old to the new

But the rest are doo-doo from

Radio, to the video, to arsenio tell me!

Yo, what's the scenario

(True blue!) scooby doo, whoopie doo

Scenario's ready yo, rates more than four

Scores for the snores that's lovin dancefloors

Now I go for mine, shades of g sure?

Ship-shape plus grape apes to play tapes

Papes make grapes great for the waist

I'm an l-ah, an e-ader

Simply just a leader

Bass in his face means peace

See ya later later? (later!)

Later alligator

Pop blows the weasel and my earth

The inflater so yo the d what the o

Incorporated I-n-c into a flow

Funk flipped flat back first this foul

Fight fight fight

Laugh yo how's that sound

(Oh!)

Busta rhymes it's the leader

Quest vision and we got the goods here (here!)

Never on the left cause my right's my good ear (ear!)

I could give a damn about a ill subliminal

Stay away from crime

'Cause I ain't no criminal

I love my young nation, groovy sensation

No time for hibernation

Only elation don't ever try to test, yo

Whattup little kid?

Yo mr. Busta rhymes, tell him what I did

I heard you rushed and rushed, and attacked

Then baby puked then you had to smack

Causin rambunction, throughout the sphere

Raise the levels of the boom, inside the ear

You know I did it

So don't violate or you get violated

The hip-hop sound is well agitated

Won't ever waste no time on the played out ego

So here's busta rhymes with the, scenario

Watch, as I combine

All the juice from the mind

Heel up, reel up, bring it back, come rewind

Powerful impact boom!

From the cannon not braggin

Try to read my mind just imagine

Vo-cab-u-lary's necessary

When diggin into my library oh my

Gosh! Oh my gosh!

Eating ayea toadstool like the one peter tosh-a uh, uh uhh

Alone with the track man

Uh, pardon me, uhh, as I come back as I did it yo I

Heard you beg your pardon

When I travel to the Sun

I roll with the squadron

Roaw roaw

Like a dungeon dragon

Change your little drawers

'Cause your pants are saggin

Try to step to this, I will

Fits you in a turban and had you

Smellin right

Like some old stale urine checkady-choco

The chocolate chicken

The rear cock diesel

For chicks they were kickin yo

Bustin out before the busta bust a nut the rhyme

The rhythm is in sync (uhh!)

The rhymes are on time (time!)

Rippin up this dance just like a radio

Observe the vibe and check out the scenario
