Lyrics
Funky Piano
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.
Straight from Brooklyn, from out the projects,
it's DJ Scratch, so girls fix your Kotex.
The Ruler; not Slick Rick, but the ruler on the mix,
with ten or more tricks.
Take flicks, prick, but please don't miss this:
watch my DJ cut with his dick.
Yeah, slick ain't it? See your moms fainted,
Technique 1200, and watch scratch train it.
I'm-a step off and let Scratch collect dough,
while you hear my jam with the funky piano.
("Hear my jam with the funky piano") [scratched x4]
("Here with the movement of his hands")
("Who is the best?") [scratch] ("Me!") [scratch]
("Stop lying") ("Go ask her mother") [all x4]
[scratch]
[PMD:]
A brief description, yeah, bust my DJ on the mix.
No line switch, two transform, cuts wit his lips.
And feeds up and down is extra weak,
he strictly cross-fades club mixes every week.
Won't break a sweat, the man's sharp on the blade.
Real name George Spivey, sports a high-top fade.
Brothers starin' shocked while the brother is rockin'.
No arrows on the record or marks, or needle poppin'.
From table to table, sports a Gucci cable.
EPMD's the group, Def Jam is the label.
Now I'm-a step off while Scratch collects his dough,
or rock a funky scratch to the funky piano.
("Hear my jam with the funky piano") [scratched x4]
("Here with the movement of his hands")
("Who is the best?") [scratch] ("Me!") [scratch]
("Stop lying") ("Go ask her mother") [all x4]
[scratching]
("Good God!")
