J-M-E
A simple music lesson, think about it
(Serious)
Everybody thinks to MC tough
Your lyrics must be about negative stuff
Go raving, no one's skanking
Turn 'round I bet you someone's shanking
Jus 'cause we come from the gutter
We know about scraping the bottom of the butter
Don't mean we have to be sinners
Major labels don't want killers
Think
Who's gonna sign a guy with a shank?
Or a guy with a nine mil'?
All you're gonna get is a three figure deal
You'll MC at a rave and get a bill
But that bill ain't gonna last
It will go fast
And it might be the last shubs for a while
So you won't have no dough for a while
(Serious)
To the beat
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to the beat
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance or lean back
Then bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to beat
Just bop your head to the beat
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
About (serious)
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
Everybody says that garage should top
'Cause it's cheap like Calypso or Tip-Top
MC's turn UK hip-hop
Scared their debut album will flop
I'm floggin' food like a chip-shop
So I'll fall back on that if this flops
Plus I go uni' so if shit pops, off with the cops
Trust me, I've got it locked
How comes every single MC is vexed?
It's like the whole point of MC-ing nowadays is to get a reload on the decks
Man will go to radio on Thursday
Even though it's his birthday
He'll spit lyrics like it's the worst day in his life
It's not serious
(Serious)
To the beat
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to the beat
Then bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance or do the bogle
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to beat
Just bop your head to the beat
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
About (serious)
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
Everybody knows you're some goody-goody
That screwface and that Rocawear hoodie just ain't workin'
Sorry bredrin, I'm Buzz Lightyear and you come like Woody
Look at my man biggin' up his chest
Looks like he's trynao grow some breast
Stop that, before you get an arch back
I don't know who my man's tryna impress
Everybody know's that I shot Os
And I make P, shot Q's like Kano
Under my tongue is were they go
Shottin' since Wiley had cane rows
To make dough you need sense
I still don't throw away five pence
One cat thought I was dense
Owed me a lump some and he tried jump some fence
(Serious)
To the beat
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to the beat
Then bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance or signal the plane
Just bop your head to the beat
If you don't wanna dance to beat
Just bop your head to the beat
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
About (serious)
You're not (serious)
Don't say (serious)
'Cause I say (serious)
You wanna get (serious)
Let's get (serious)
You can't act (serious)
So don't say (serious)
Serious
I hope everybody takes something away with them from this lesson today
See you tomorrow
