	That's the magic number
	Yes it is
	It's the magic number
	Somewhere in this hip-hop soul community
	Was born 3 mase, dove and me
	And that's the magic number
	(what does it all mean?)
	Difficult preaching is posdnuos' pleasure
	Pleasure and preaching starts in the heart
	Something that stimulates the music in my measure
	Measure in my music, raised in three parts
	Casually see but don't do like the soul
	'cause seein' and doin' are actions for monkeys
	Doin' hip hop hustle, no rock and roll
	Unless your name's brewster, 'cause brewster's a punky
	Parents let go 'cause there's magic in the air
	Criticising rap shows you're out of order
	Stop look and listen to the phrasin' fred astaires
	And don't get offended while mase do-se-do's your daughter
	A tri-camera rolls since our music's now set
	Fly rhymes are stored on a d.a.i.s.y. production
	It stands for "da inner sound y'all" and y'all can bet
	That the action's not a trick, but showing the function
	Everybody wants to be a deejay
	Everybody wants to be an emcee
	But being speakers are the best
	And you don't have to guess
	De la soul posse consists of three
	And that's the magic number
	Dove:
	This here piece of the pie
	Is not dessert but the course that we dine
	And three out of every darn time
	The effect is "mmmm" when a daisy grows in your mind
	Showing true position, this here piece is
	Kissin' the part of the pie that's missin'
	When that negative number fills up the casualty
	Maybe you can subtract it
	You can call it your lucky partner
	Maybe you can call it your adjective
	But odd as it may be
	Without my 1 and 2 where would there be
	My 3
	Mase pos and me
	And that's the magic number
	Focus is formed by flaunts to the soul
	Souls who flaunt styles gain praises by pounds
	Common are speakers who are never scrolls
	Scrolls written daily creates a new sound
	Listeners listen 'cause this here is wisdom
	Wisdom of a speaker, a dove and a plug
	Set aside a legal substance to feed 'em
	For now get 'em high off this dialect drug
	Time is a factor so it's time to count
	Count not the negative actions of one
	Speakers of soul say it's time to shout
	Three forms the soul to a positive sum
	Dance to this fix and flex every muscle
	Space can be filled if you rise like my lumber
	Advance to the tune but don't do the hustle
	Shake, rattle, roll to my magic number
	Now you may try to subtract it
	But it just won't go away
	Three times one?
	(what is it?)
	(one, two, three!)
	And that's the magic number
	(yo, what's up?)
	(1, 2, 3)
	(i say, children, what does it all mean?)
	(woah-woah-wo, 1, 2, 3)
	(i wouldn't lie to you)
	(no more no less, that's the magic number)
	(no more no less)
	(what it is?)
	(no more no less)
	(is this the future?)
	(no more no less)
	(do the shang-a-lang)
	(no more no less)
	(no one on the subway ever chats to me)
	(no more no less)
	(anybody in the audience ever get hit by a car?)
	(no more no less)
	(how high's the water, mama?)
	(no more no less)
	(how high's the water, mama?)
	(no more no less)
	(three feet high and rising)
	(no more no less)
	(three)
	(that's the magic number)
