De La Soul - Say No Go lyrics

rate me

POS:

Now let's get right on down to the skit

A baby is brought into a world of pits

And if it could've talked that soon

In the delivery room

It would've asked the nurse for a hit

The reason for this?

The mother is a jerk

Excuse me, junkie

Which brought the work of the old

Into a new light, what a way

But this what a way

Has been a way of today

Anyway push couldn't shove me

To understand a path to a basehead

Consumer should erase it in the first wave

But second wave forms relievers

And believers will walk to it

Then even talk to it and say

(You got my body now you want my soul)

Nah, can't have none of that

Tell 'em what to say Mase

(Say no go)

DOVE:

Nah, no my brother

No my sister

Try to get hip to this

Word, word to the mother

I'll tell the truth

So bear my witness

Fly like birds of a feather

Drugs are like pleather

You don't wanna wear it

No need to ask that question

Just don't mention

You know what the answer is

POS:

Now I never fancied Nancy

But the statement she made

Held a plate of weight

I even stressed it to Wade

DOVE:

Did he take any heed?

POS:

Nah, the boy was hooked

You coulda phrased the word "base"

And the kid just shook

In his fashion class once an A now an F

The rock rules him now

The only designs left

Were once clothes made for Osh-Kosh

Has converted to nothing but stonewash

DOVE:

Now hopping in a barrel is a barrel of fun

But don't hop in if you wanna be down, son

'Cause that could mean

Down and out as an action

What does that lead to?

Dum da dum dum

People say what have I done for all my years

My tears show my hard earned work

I heard shoving is worse than pushing

But I'd rather know a shover than a pusher

'Cause a pusher's a jerk

(Say no go)

POS:

Believe it or not

The plots forms a fee

More than charity

But the course doesn't coincide

With the ride of insanity

Is it a chant that slants

The soul to fill for it?

I know it's the border

That flaunts the order

To kill for it

DOVE:

Standing, scheming on a young one

Taking his time

8 ball for a cool pool player

Racked it all

Tried to break, miscued

Got beat by the boy in blue

Next day you're out

By the spot once more

Looking hard for a crack in the hole

I ask what's the fix for the ill stuff

Word to the Dero

The answer shoulda been no

POS:

Run me a score from the funky four plus one more

(It's the joint!)

Rewind that back

This is the age for a new stage of fiend

Watch how the junkies scream

For their crack

"It's the crack"t should explain it from the start

Behind the ideals of cranking up the heart

Now the Base claims shot over every part

(Say no go)

(Say no go)

(Don't even think about it)

(Say no go)

(Say no go)
