| Song | Leonard I-V |
| Artist | The Roots |
| Album | Organix |
| 作词 : Black Thought, Hubbard ... | |
| From the never never tunnels via satellite | |
| Ceremonies be commencing in the candlelight | |
| Yo is i is up in the res-in-iduals tonight | |
| Absolutely because i'm the kid that's on the mic | |
| And i believe it's destiny that i got put | |
| In a position to throw lyrics like a shotput | |
| Yo no matter the circumstance | |
| Thought can always make you dance | |
| Like you got the heebie-jeebies or a hotfoot | |
| The bass is low on the meter, less than zero | |
| So while i'm sinning you be spinning like a planet | |
| Yo if you dig the shit i'm sayin you'll be deeper | |
| Wish for little and your wishes shall be granted | |
| We plant the seeds y'all, to grow the roots y'all | |
| And mad knowledge i got, from the archives | |
| But now i got a crazy fat question: | |
| What ever happened to leonard parts one to five? | |
| Chorus: black thought (repeat 2x) | |
| Why'd you ask me that question? (i don't know) | |
| Where did leonard parts one to five go? | |
| Why'd you ask me that question? (i don't know) | |
| Word/uhh/yeah/... | |
| Where did leonard parts one to five go.. | |
| [black thought] | |
| Chariot, chariot, come swing low--be | |
| Cause it's on a lower level that i swing low, umm | |
| ?uestion, keeps me up, on the swing flow, he | |
| Don't got a whole name, i call him, bro the | |
| Roots is comin through on your audio | |
| For you to cut the roots down i don't think so | |
| Because the sound from the ground is like be--low | |
| And when the liquid kicks in then the roots grow | |
| Now my ace boom coon plus amigo | |
| Was shadrach meshach and n'bendago | |
| There was a alpha to omega, motion, system | |
| But i just call them a to o | |
| And in all states, the roots'll rock a fat show | |
| Because i drop art like i was pa-blo | |
| And pa-blo's last name was picasso | |
| But as for cash flow, i don't got no | |
| Dividends and, ends to spend on blow, yo | |
| Where did leonard parts to five go? | |
| Chorus | |
| [black thought] | |
| Where's the third verse? here it comes, here it goes | |
| The second had oodles and oodles of.. | |
| Speaking of o's, i'm hard to sink like a cheerio | |
| And i speak up loud, so you can hear me yo | |
| Is it a tribe called quest? is it the j.beez? | |
| We're cool like dat, but yo we're not the d.p.'s | |
| It's the group the roots, with the organic rap style | |
| Plus the groove from the rhythmic rhyme file | |
| Umm.. i'm a big fan of the soul | |
| But i'm trying to get this roots shit in control | |
| So i hate when people say, | |
| "umm - you remind me of de la soul," | |
| Cause i got a soul, of my own, and umm | |
| Yo the roots are taking big steps and | |
| You can listen as we progress in | |
| Sometimes i might come to teach a lesson | |
| Other times it's with a crazy question like.. | |
| Yo.. whatever happened to leonard parts one to five? | |
| Word up; i don't know, anyway, roots up y'know | |
| Uhh, as we do it like this | |
| Roots up, roots up | |
| Roots up, roots up | |
| Roots up, roots up | |
| Roots up, roots up | |
| Roots up.. up, roots up-up | |
| Roots up, roots up-up | |
| Roots up, roots up-up | |
| Roots up, roots _up from the ground_ | |
| Roots up, roots up with the sound | |
| Roots up, roots _up from the ground_ | |
| Roots up, roots gettin on down | |
| Roots up, dig it | |
| Roots up y'all, roots up y'all | |
| Roots is up roots is up roots is up y'all | |
| Roots is up y'all, roots is up y'all | |
| Roots is up roots is up roots is up y'all | |
| Roots is up.. |
