|
I've been all around the world |
|
I've been a new sensation |
|
But it doesn't really matter |
|
In this de-generation |
|
The sophomore slump is an uphill battle |
|
And someone said it aint my scene |
|
'Cause they need a new song |
|
Like a new religion |
|
Music for the television |
|
I can't do the long division |
|
Someone do the math |
|
For the record label puts me |
|
on the shelf up in the freezer |
|
Got to find another way to live the life of leisure |
|
So I drop my top, |
|
Mix and I mingle |
|
Is everybody ready for the single and it goes... |
|
La La La La La |
|
Now listen closer to the verse I lay |
|
(Ha La La La La) |
|
It's all about the wordplay |
|
(Ha La La La Love) |
|
The wonderful thing it does |
|
Because, because |
|
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's |
|
Yeah the Mister A-Z |
|
They say I'm all about the wordplay |
|
And it's time to get ill I got your remedy |
|
For those who don't remember me |
|
Well let me introduce you to my style |
|
I try to keep a jumble |
|
And the lyrics never mumble |
|
When the music's makin' people tongue-tied |
|
You want a new song |
|
Like a new religion |
|
Music for the television |
|
I can't do the long division |
|
Someone do the math |
|
For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder |
|
Got to find another way to keep from goin' under |
|
Pull out the stops, |
|
Got your attention |
|
I guess it's time again for me to mention |
|
The wordplay |
|
La La La La La |
|
Now listen closer to the verse I lay |
|
(Ha La La La La) |
|
It's all about the wordplay |
|
(Ha La La La Love) |
|
The wonderful thing it does |
|
Because, because |
|
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's |
|
Yeah the Mister A-Z |
|
They say I'm all about the wordplay |
|
I built a bridge across the stream of consciousness |
|
It always seems to be a flowin' |
|
But I don't know which way my brain is goin' |
|
Oh the ryhmin' and the timin' |
|
Keeps the melodies inside me |
|
And they're climbin' |
|
'Til I'm running out of air |
|
Are you prepared to take a dive |
|
into the deep end of my head |
|
Are you listening to a single word I've said |
|
Ha La La La La |
|
Listen closer to the words I say |
|
Ha La La La La |
|
I'm stickin' with the wordplay |
|
Ha La La La Love |
|
The wonderful thing it does |
|
Because, because |
|
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's |
|
Yeah the Mister A-Z |
|
They say I'm all about the wordplay |
|
Ha La La La La |
|
I'm all about the wordplay |
|
Ha La La La La |
|
I'm stickin' with the wordplay |
|
Ha La La La Love |
|
I love the wonderful thing it does |
|
Because, because |
|
The ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's i'm back in love |
|
For the Mister A-Z they say |
|
It's all about the wordplay |
