[Biz Markie] |
|
Ah one two, ah one two |
|
Ah one two, ah one two |
|
I'd like to.. introduce myself.. |
|
My name is.. ah Biz Markie.. |
|
[Verse One] |
|
Well I'm the human ultra called Biz Markie |
|
Makin music orderly is my specialty |
|
When I go {*BOOM*} ah one two, girls get excited |
|
When they hear my lyrics they wanna recite 'em |
|
I know y'all in the mood, just go with the flow |
|
And I can play rappin records and all disco |
|
Like "Beat It," "Billie Jean," by Michael Jackson |
|
Or the Treacherous 3 record, they call "Action" |
|
When you hear me do it, you will be shocked and amazed |
|
It's the brand new thing they call the human beatbox craze |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Make the music with your mouth, biz! |
|
[Biz Markie beatboxes] |
|
Make the music with your mouth, biz! |
|
[Biz Markie beatboxes] |
|
Make the music with your mouth, biz! |
|
[Biz Markie beatboxes] |
|
[Verse Two] |
|
Well I don't just do the beatbox, I rock on the mic |
|
And all the rhymes that I say, all the people like |
|
I get the crowd jumpin, get the girl's hearts pumpin |
|
All the party people say, "Isn't he somethin?" |
|
Rock from New York City all the way down South |
|
Sayin rhymes and makin music, with my mouth |
|
I'ma tell you party people how I began |
|
It started when I'm livin in Long Is-land |
|
Hey when I was a kid I used to play in the streets |
|
Makin sounds with my mouth, all sorts of beats |
|
Grown people, used to say - WHAT? |
|
Grown people, used to say - WHAT'S.. |
|
.. wrong with that kid makin that strange noise |
|
It was like, for all the fly girls and all the homeboys |
|
Then I tried it at a homeboy's basement par-ty |
|
They thought it was a record, they ain't know it was me |
|
When they came by the DJ, and saw who it is |
|
They said, "Make the music with your mouth, Biz!" |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[song continues as just a beat for a while] |
|
[Verse Three] |
|
It may look and sound easy doin the human beatbox |
|
But it's real difficult, even knocked me out my socks |
|
It's a movement combination with your lip tongue and throat |
|
Use your teeth and your nose for a mysterious high note |
|
I like doin it as a hobby or a job |
|
People treat me like a star and surround me in the mall |
|
It's not all the props, spittin, breathin hard and doin |
|
You need practice, be ambitious in the schoolin |
|
Let me tell you party people, you gotta admit |
|
Anything than you want you gotta work hard for it |
|
That's why I like doin sounds, that's hard to achieve |
|
Makin two or three sounds at one time you can't believe |
|
When I walk down the street, people crowd around me |
|
And say, "HOW YOU MAKE ALL THEM SOUNDS at one time Biz Markie?" |
|
I tell 'em it takes a lot of practice, and lip control |
|
I've been doin it since, fifteen years old |
|
And everywhere I do it, the people say I'm good |
|
I even get big respect in my own neighborhood |
|
I'm tellin you a fact, and just like it is |
|
Even moms pops and cops say, "Whattup Biz?" |
|
Everywhere I go, I always rocked the boat |
|
Gonna end this rhyme, with this one note |
|
Not gonna act conceited and say I'm the best |
|
But I'm guaranteed to pass any kind of test |
|
I say def rhymes, with funky fresh lyrics |
|
When I do the beat the party people go into HYSTERICS! |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse Four] |
|
You heard the proceedin, now here's the sequel |
|
All human beatboxes is not created equal |
|
That's why I'm here, to say today |
|
That I'm doin my beat in a special way |
|
Makin musical tunes, orally, I have perspective |
|
I'm very well known, and greatly respected |
|
I like to thank people, without no doubt |
|
Peace hi party people it's time to break ou.. |
|
[Outro - singing while Biz beatboxes] |
|
Make the music.. make the music.. |
|
MAKE THE MUSIC.. with your mouth! |
|
Make the music.. make the music.. |
|
MAKE THE MUSIC.. with your mouth! |
|
Make the music.. make the music.. |
|
MAKE THE MUSIC.. with your mouth! |
|
Make the music.. make the music.. |
|
MAKE THE MUSIC.. with your mouth! |
|
MAKE THE MUSIC.. with your mouth! |
|
[Biz continues beatboxing and scatting to the end] |
