[01:13.17]Here come the thief on the old school beat
[01:15.48]And I never knew the meaning of the word "defeat"
[01:17.80]The master of disguise wanna see the people's eyes
[01:20.18]Yet  fools try to deny that the  man  can fly
[01:22.37]Just cook 'em all up like gumbo
[01:23.82]And block their a** like Mutumbo
[01:25.25]Cause your album dropped off the charts like Dumbo
[01:27.44]We are new and improved to make you put on your boogie shoes
[01:29.82]Like K C  and the Sunshine Band  or the Wu-Tang Clan
[01:32.00]I go way back like Vegas  Nixon  Noreaga
[01:33.83]It's the tennis shoe players fat box on the quiet station
[01:36.14]Now what if hip hop was like Humpty Dumpty sittin' on the wall
[01:38.32]And what if hip hop had to take a great fall
[01:40.32]And what if rhyme was a crime
[01:42.14]And each and every time
[01:43.07]That you spit a d**e line
[01:44.01]You might have to do some time
[01:45.44]Most of these clowns will be tryin' to skip town
[01:47.19]But Coolio will be ready for the showdown

[02:05.62]And pass a joint to the loc when he roll through
[02:17.71]If the shoe fit  put it on and stick
[02:19.65]And if your a** uncash don't let your mouth write no check
[02:21.96]Fools be in the bars unadvanced with a switch
[02:24.08]Uppercuts and fight kicks with Weird Al Yankovich
[02:25.46]From Tokyo to Sojo  rollin wit the 4-0
[02:27.96]This hip hop that I'm holdin' I'll make it move your hoe
[02:31.15]It's the Vandino  everything but rhyme's broken
[02:33.20]Breakin' a ni**a with first position at the open
[02:35.70]You can't understand how I do it
[02:37.27]I'm just true to it
[02:38.02]I let my pen flow across the paper like it was made affluent
[02:40.20]Uh  let it ring  let it rip
[02:41.77]Everybody holler like Marvin Gaye  but don't you let the record skip
[02:44.77]Synchronize the watch  cause the party don't stop
[02:46.85]Till the neighborhood watch call the cops
[02:48.22]It's the wild a** festival  coast line veteran
[02:51.53]Once again droppin' bombs on yo section (On yo section)
