[la:uk] From the Album: Hes the DJ, Im the Rapper
[00:22] Now I have a story that Id like to tell
[00:25] About this guy you all know - he had me scared as hell
[00:29] He comes to me at night after I crawl into bed
[00:31] Hes burnt up like a weenie and his name is Fred
[00:34] He wears the same hat and sweater every single day
[00:37] And even if its hot outside - he wears it anyway
[00:40] Hes home when Im awake but he shows up when Im sleep
[00:42] I cant believe that theres a nightmare on my street
[00:56] It was a Saturday evening if I remember it right
[01:00] And we had just gotten back off tour last night
[01:02] So the gang and I thought that it would be groovy
[01:05] If we summoned up the posse and bum-rushed the movie
[01:08] I got Angie, Jeff got Tina
[01:11] Ready Rock got some girl Id never seen in my life
[01:14] That was all right though cause the lady was chill
[01:16] Then we dipped to the theater set to ill
[01:19] We saw Elm Street, and man, it was def!
[01:22] And everything seemed all right when we left
[01:24] But when I got home and laid down to sleep
[01:28] That began the nightmare out on my street!
[01:42] It was burning in my room like a oven
[01:44] My bed soaked with sweat
[01:45] And man I was bugging
[01:47] I checked the clock and it stopped at twelve-thirty
[01:50] It had melted it was so darn hot
[01:52] And I was thirsty
[01:53] I went downstairs to grab some juice in my coat
[01:56] Flipped the TV off and then I almost choked
[01:58] When I heard this awful voice coming from behind
[02:01] It said, "You are my favorite rapper but now you must die!"
[02:04] Man, I aint even wait to see who it was
[02:07] Broke inside my drawers and screamed, "So long, cous!"
[02:10] Got halfway up the block
[02:11] I calmed down and stopped screaming
[02:12] Then thought, "Oh, I git it, I must be dreaming"
[02:15] I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
[02:17] I think that since this is a dream I might as well get ill
[02:21] I walked in the house, the Big Bad Fresh Prince
[02:24] But Freddy killed all that noise real quick!
[02:27] he grabbed me by my neck and said
[02:28] "Heres what well do
[02:29] We gotta lotta work here, me and you
[02:32] The souls of your friends you and I will claim
[02:35] Youve got the body and Ive got the brain"
[02:38] I said, "Yo Fred I think you got me all wrong
[02:40] I aint partners with nobody with nails that long
[02:43] Look, Ill be honest,man, this team wont work
[02:46] The girls wont be on you, Fred, your face is all burnt!"
[02:49] I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thanks for stoppin by"
[02:52] Then I opened up the door
[02:53] And said, "Take care, guy!"
[02:54] He got mad, threw back his arm, and slashed my shirt
[02:58] I laughed at first, then thought, "Hold up, that hurt"
[03:00] It wasnt a dream, man, this guy was for real
[03:03] I said, "Freddy, uh, pal, theres been an awful mistake here"
[03:06] No further words and then I darted upstairs
[03:09] Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
[03:12] Pulled the covers up over my head
[03:14] And said, "Oh please do something with Fred"
[03:17] He jumped on my bed, went through the covers with his claws
[03:20] Tried to get me, but my alarm went off
[03:23] And then silence
[03:24] It was a whole new day
[03:25] I thought, "Huh, I wasnt scared of him anyway"
[03:28] Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
[03:31] And that was proof that there had been
[03:32] A nightmare on my street
[03:43] O man, I gotta call Jeff, I gotta call Jeff
[03:50] Come on, come on
[03:53] Come on Jeff, answer! Come on, man
[03:58] Hello
