A Tribe Called Quest - Hey lyrics
rate me
The name is q-tipenterin through the middle
From the leftdead all the jokes and the riddles
Comin from the maximum gainthe octane
That's on the radio it made me feel so low
It seems we gottabrightenthe damp prison
I'm nintendo 64 and you mattel intellivision
Bustin from no mo' trey-eightsnow papi weight
This joint is like a rugerwatch it roar like a cougar
And we gottamove on the dancefloor
And work it out all night that's what you came here for
Just chem'I fills it to the rimyour shine is lookin dim
Daddy shine the light on himahem it's me
Leader of the starfleet force
Guaranteed to knock your joint off coursewe took the loss?
Damn rightsure as tina made ike
We gonna put it in your noggin all nightand all day
The trilateral commision we dissin
Tellin citizens be straightbut like snakes they hissin
I'll be damned if I let his song fall to the side
Goin piggybackin shitlet's ridec'mon
I put it downnow what you gonna do (8x)
Heynowwhat you gonna dowith yourselfhah? (4x)
When you hear thisrecognize you hear love
Mc nigga illin over b-boy dubs
Riding through the shit like tron
Doesn't matter if you onboarddo you wanna get on?
Cause if you dowatch all the moves that we make
Gotta do the things rightain't no time for mistake
It's the hip-hop cat that can'tfuck with jake
Just because he wear a badge doesn'tmean he straight so
What you wanna swallow it down or let's take it
Disregard those who fake ityo it doesn't matter
About the realmhip-hop is to the helm
It's divine to hit the mind like slippery elms
So put it down manput it on down
Put it down manput it on down
Put it down womanput it on down
Put it down manput it on down
Put it down manwhatchu gonna do
Put it down womanwhatchu gonna do
A-put it down manwhatchu gonna do
Put it down womanwhatchu gonna do
