{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"what i do for mine, i knew the time was gonna come" -> chubb rock

[chubb rock]

For my, introduction in eighty-six i was lethal

Rockin for the grassroots and up keep the people

The movement of the bowel from that lay shit of the vowel

Mad share yeah, from mr. (?) with the growl

The party's mad dead until i care to appear

Kids wanna know where the hell i been for the past year

No beer or no parka nike gear no wear or tear

The new mic holder who causes, any fair

Some max and relax then mellow then strive

Shock-value mc's goin platinums with lies

The neophytic critics, who need big bats to hit it

They zone with the metronome clone to dome split it

When i joke around like zog, rename them is like fog

I can flow digital, though my style is analog

I, base my career upon these years of how i've strived

Three years gone but i will survive, ha

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"what i do for mine, i knew the time was gonna come" -> chubb rock

[chubb rock]

Ha ha, ha ha

Now this "east vs. west," one contest was a taste

"crooklyn dodgers" and that libation, touched the fan base

A little, always scared in the place i scare any new rival

Past years missin dissin scripting up this new bible

I'm your idol, the highest title, numero uno

I'm not a puerto rican or some black nigga who's peakin

The lyrics are abundant, dirty fat blue beats are pungent

And now we gotta see how hot, will the son get

I'm a lyrical defamer, like gloria i'm a gaynor

In the music biz i opened up more doors than kramer

My anthology's available, so buy up the archive

Three years gone but i will survive

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"m-o (??) b-l-u-e" -> ??

[chubb rock]

For the duration..

Overzealous inhabitants flock with abundance

Paying tribute, to the one the circumfrence

Of the stadium, is paying homage, to my cranium

The sea of heads doesn't seem to hide the lady

In the back row, waving her hands for the ohh

The usual crowd rock line for a show

And i dispense with the usu-al, and keep it coastin

To boom up the set my advice is take a motion

Before you walk through the door, of a chubb rock tour

Buy the anthology in any store

Frontin, now we'll have ya, tougher than mutton

If i touch your button you'll start kick like charles dutton

Lyrics persevere and you really must strive

Three years gone but i will survive

I.. i.. i will will, survive, now ho!

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"what i do for mine, i knew the time was gonna come" -> chubb rock

{you know you ought to, slow down..}

"nine to five is how you survive, i ain't tryin to survive" -> jay-z

{you know you ought to, slow down..}
