[mr. funkee]
the year is 1971. now comes the first of the children of roton.
lords of the underground witness the birth of the funky child
doitall hit and'em!
[doitall]
born with the funk from the womb of brenda
see i likes the lords but you used to dig the spinners
first with the style from the birth canal
and now i got the flav to make the crowd go wild
do dig it (screams) ooh watch me kick it
iand'm taking no shorts unless this ?girl from my midget?
i packs the piece more than chicken packed grease
iand'm nearly knocking boots, but if not iand'll knock teeth
wahh! gaga, ooh cries the baby
smacked on the ass now the doitalland's crazy
no rattles or playpens, the crowds what iand'm rapping
and yes i do reruns, as if this boy was happening
now january 14th has birthed the funk one
the d-day for dupree and yes iand'm funk-ay
i got you bobbing to the funky style
k-def let and'em know here comes the funky child
[k-def]
yeah, born in the underground of newark, now witness the birth of mr. funkee
[mr. funkee]
the fifth of the terror, itand's the return of funky kreuger
a.k. anger, but yo thatand's mr. funkee wallbanger
concieved in the fire by you warned through disaters
the funky child was taught to the ways of the masters
mr. funkee, yes girl the black mack is back
here to kick my funky style, funky this and funky that
you can work kid you know, you could practice all your life
but i still take the show and then i go home with the wife
oh my god, funky with the style, lord have mercy
i hurdle over rappers just like jackie joyner-kersee
watch me flip the script, let me show you what the funk do
make you call me uncle (what?) uncle (what?) uncle (who?)
when i was younger i used to sing with my sister
now i kick the ill styles you have to call me mister
cooling in the house of hits, time to buckwild
raised in the ways of the funky child
(funky child) (funky funky style) (scratched by lord jazz 6x)
[doitall]
well um, back up baby, here come the schooler
weand're hit when we dry crawl and hit rock and'nand' roller
iand'm caught in the swinging, hear no ties by the pendulum
just ???, so this is how iand'm killing them
k is on the m.p., jazz is on the technique
marleyand's on the mix and now the lords have a hit like pow!
now itand's time to get buckwild
and watch my funky brothers freak the underground
in a second, or minute, in no times flat
(flatline noise) bring it back
and go grab the album to give the lords money
take it home to mom to say andquot;ainand't they funky?andquot;
[mr. funkee]
we gone psycho and everbody thought they did was styles
they didnand't affect me, i said andquot;so what?andquot; i kept on writing rhymes
i keep my funky style perfected so no one can stop my flow
i fear no man, cause if itand's on fool, then itand's on (and itand's on)
donand't worry not for other crews selling out
as long as lords of the underground stay underground
the brothers of lotug will keep the lyrical fitness
donand't worry about me selling out, mind your business
you might say andquot;damn, mr. funkeeand's throwing outandquot;
but if you listen to the words then youand'll know what iand'm about
any props you receive are the props that you earn
iand'm off till the funky child returns
