[fresh prince]
For years i have been waitin and hesitatin to make a
Rap record, that had the pace of a
Slow song, quiet storm, chillin while the fire is warm
You and your girl, with this record on
Your radio or stereo, i don't know
I love you so is what you'll be sayin, while this record's playin
You reminscin and kissin your girl
Relax, lay back, unwind, cause now is time to chill

Setting the mood, by the use of this groove
Is an ingenious, perceptive, brilliant, a very clever move
Because the bassline, combined with the fresh rhyme
At a slow tempo enticed passion to grow
But if it's not passion, for which you search
Then use the song as a massage after a hard day's work
And if it's true that music calms the savage beast
Play this cut in the jungle and put the lions to sleep
Take a deep breath, stretch, kick off your footwear
Put on the tape of this record, but beware
Caution, warning, it's your decision
There's nothin stronger that you can buy, without prescription
It's soothing, somewhat hypnotic
A rhythmic anesthetic it's practically a narcotic
You want it? we got it -- come get it we're widdit
Because it's all at the push of a button, yo jeff, hit it!

The objective, of this musical extravaganza
Is to enlighten you, stanza by stanza
Verse after verse, have been precisely arranged
Rearranged and then changed until the best remained
The result being, this incredible song
So for at least eight hours a day, you'll have this record on
In the morning and at night in your room
And all through the afternoon, you will be
Listening, mentally rapped up in the cut
Some people will sit down and some will choose to get up
But whatever you choose, just keep your ear to the wax
Because we got somethin def that other rappers lack
We haven't been able to put our fingers on what it is
But it's different and it's def and it appeals to kids
And teens and adults and senior citizens too
And i'd be willing to bet, that it appeals to you, too!
So if you're not into rap, give us a chance
To change your mind, and to make you dance
To this lyrical miracle, this musical discovery
But yo i wanna chill for a second, yo jeff, cover me

It's like paradise, this music is nice
It makes you hot if you want it too, or twice as cold as ice
It brings love to the heart of a criminal
With this subliminal power, all the women'll
Flock while all the guys rocks, when it's on your box
It gained us a much bigger reputation than the white sox
You may ask yourself are we that famous?
Bust this, the queen of spain knows what my real name is
Our time is runnin short so i'll bid you farewell
You know this cut is so def, that you have been overwhelmed
Be cool, be chill, relax, have no fear..
.. i'm outta here

Have you ever in your life experienced a day
Where nothing at all seems to go your way
No matter how hard you try to get out of the rut
You just could not break the string of bad luck
A day where murphy's law takes over your life
And you just can't seem to do a darn thing right
And when the day was over you just had to say
You said man it's just one of those days

My day started off kind of cool
I brushed my teeth i comed my hair and i got dressed and went to school
I stopped at the store for a breakfast snack
A tasty cake and orange juice and a bubble yum pack
About that point i proceeded to class
I spoke to all the pretty girls that i passed
I went to my room which was on the first floor
I had no idea what i was in for
I sat in my desk and minded my own business
Someone knocked on the door the teacher said who is it
This girl walked in my imigination ran wild
She stole my heart just by the way that she smiled
I couldn't resist so i grabbed her butt
She said what's wrong with you fool are you some kind of nut
The teacher turned around while my arm was extended
She looked me in the face and said prince you're suspended
I said your tripping it's just a bad habit
She put it in my face she must've wanted me to grab it
I pleaded my case but she wrote the pink slip
Then i just shoke my head i said i don't beleive this
She sent me to the head of the discipline staff
I tried to play it off so i started to laugh
I said ha ha this story is great
It's a big misunderstanding one big mistake
He didn't think that it was funny he didn't even smile
He said mmm mmm mmm you're an unlucky child
I stopped laughing and i said why is that
He said just get out my school and don't you ever come back
I said wait this is my school and you're telling me to leave it
He handed me my books and said yep you'd best beleive it
As i walked out the school back at the wall i did gaze
And said man it's just one of those days

I woke up around a quarter to eight
I wiped the sleep from out my eyes and i was feeling great
I flipped my radio on and to my utter surprise
I thought that it was eight o'clock but it was half past nine
I hopped up and put my feet on the floor
Ran to the bathroom then i (ow) hit my foot on the door
The pain was immense as it started to throb
I said to hell with broken toes i was losing my job
So i combed my hair then i brushed my teeth
Threw on my fila suit and my fila sneaks
Threw on my fila underwear and my fila hat
Then i ran downstairs and kicked the fila cat
I grabbed my jacket then i grabbed my keys
Then i prayed out loud car start please
The car started but what good was that
I couldn't drive it anyway because the tires were flat
I did the hundred yard dash to the top of my block
Then i grabbed a dollar bill from my left sweat sock
The bus pulled up i was late and kind of nervous
I got real mad because the sign said out of service
I started hiking it i wasn't liking it
I saw a little kid i stole his bike and started biking it
I thought i got away but when i ducked around the corner
There was twelve cop cars i said i'm a goner
Slamed on the flat i did 180 turn
Peddled the bike so fast i heard the rubble burn
With the cops in hot pursuit i started feeling like a jerk
I thought man all of this cause i was trying to get to work
I could've got away i almost had 'em shook
Til this girl walked by something said not to look
But i thought what the heck a little peek can't hurt
But she made me miss the sign that said men at work
I screamed out loud as i crashed through the baracade
I saw my whole life flash before my face
I felt kind of dizzy all i saw was stars
I put my hands over my eyes and settled on the handle bars
That was stupid i got off track
Cause about that point everything went black
The next thing i remember is a head ache nagging
I woke up face down in the back of a paddy wagon
I pinched myself to make sure i wasn't dead
A big flinstone lump on the side of my head
They took my picture and my finger prints
I said wait you can't arrest me i'm the fresh prince
I demand that you release me you incompetent fool
You can't arrest me i'm the prince you know the rules
You got five seconds 'fore i punch out your lights
But then the cop pulled out his gun i said ha ha psyche
I had a call so i called my boss
I figured i might as well what else could be lost
Boss i'm sorry that i couldn't make it today
He said what are you talking about you're off today is saturday
Stuck in a cell scared as hell
I'm a hungry kind of tired and i hate this awful smell
Maybe one day i'll get smart and change my ways
But for now it's just one of those days

It's just one of those days

This is a story i'll never forget
About the day my new car got hit
It caught me off guard cause it happened so quick
When i heard the crash i got mad as hell
Cruising down the highway fast not slow
Ninety miles an hour in my 5.0
People waving at me cause they know who i am
Alpine stero blasting a jam
Put the top down said my girlfriend
Then my damn hat blew off in the wind
I got kinda mad cause it's the hat i just bought
I shoulda put her out it was all her fault
Day was friday date was ten
My girl was looking good on a strem
She smacked my hand when i put it on her rear
Said hit me again and i'll break your wrist
That day i dressed all in white
Takin' my girl to palm springs for the night
I was hoping i could find a short cut
I was tired plus i had a rash on my butt
There was this lady in a pinto coup
'bout 90 years old i could tell by the droop
Driving off fast borderline insane
Glass so thick couldn't stay in her lane
I swerved left then i swerved right
She was still tailgating me too damn tight
To the left lane i tried to switch
Then you saw my blinker bitch

We both pulled off on the side of the road
I was hot ready to explode
The only thing stopping me from breaking her nose
Is i was 21 and she was 90 years old
Then the police came turn the lights off
The lady started cryin' and the cop got soft
The cop said ah it'll be ok
Wrinkled old bag lookin' like a charpe
I said wait what's going on cap'
Her car's fine my car is wrecked
Then i saw what happened in the crash
Her dentures came out her mouth and got stuck in the dash
You hit me i didn't hit you
Stop holding your neck lady you can't sue
It's your fault you caused all this
You saw my blinker bitch

Wednesday october the fourth
That's when we got our day in court
That lady destroyed my case
She came in a wheelchair and a neck brace
I jumped up i said you must be jokin'
Come on judge her neck ain't broken
Well i'll be damned
Wrinkled old bag started cryin' on the stand
The balif grabbed me slammed me on the ground
Judge said boy you'd better calm down
Aren't you one of them damn rap singers
Yeah then i gave him the finger
Judge held me in contempt of court
For givin' him the finger and things of that sort
Anything to say before you're dismissed
Just one you saw my blinker bitch

[fresh prince]
Everywhere we go, downtown or to a show
We have two necessities, charlie mack and our limo
He's feared by suckers yet he's loved by kids
Pay attention and let me tell you who charlie mack
He is our homeboy from around the block
He's regarded through the city as the hip-hop cop
Height about 6'6", weight about 290
Everywhere i go, charlie mack is right behind me
He never laughs, never smiles nor sweats
He doesn't breaks arms or legs, only spines or necks
He once killed a man cause he would not let go of his eggo
Apollo creed is a sucker, charlie mack could beat drago
He could bench about three-hundred pounds
The cops all take a vacation, when charlie's in town
He's the toughest around, so everywhere that i go, he goes
He's charlie mack and he's the first out the limo

[fresh prince]
I guess you're wonderin why he's the first out
The limo, yo, let me give you this bit of info
So you'll know the things that charlie can do
And you'll know every single reason why he's down with the crew
The limo picks up about a half past six
With the radio blastin our latest hit
It's me, jeff, ready rock, omar and j.l.
Charlie mack is up front as we depart the hotel
First we cause chaos throughout the city streets
Then maybe stop at burger king for a bite to eat
And if somebody gets stupid while we're in the place
Charlie cancels his order and bites off their face
He's not a troublemaker, in fact, he's a troublebreaker
And if somebody gets dumb, well it'll only take a
Second or two, after some fools snaps
Law and order is restored by my hero charlie mack
Wheel off into the limo, and head for the jam
Charlie cracks all the knuckles, on both of his hands
And when we pull up to the show, the routine is unrehearsed
It's just natural that we let charlie hop our first
He clears the crowd without sayin a word
Man, that's the loudest silence i've ever heard
A lot of times guys test him, by tryin to bug
He just, leaves ring imprints, all over their mugs
He's a terminator, a hercules of sorts
Man to hell with chess, he likes physical sports
You may not have known before but now you know
The reason why charlie mack is the first out the limo

[fresh prince]
We'd like to apologize to all of our fans
But please don't touch us when we're at our jams
Cause charlie don't like folks around us when we're doin a show
And if he punches you, uh-oh, better get maaco!
Still you weak rap dudes tempers are hot
Just because i've got somethin that you ain't got
If you want to get physical, rowdy or try to bomb me
I won't get excited, i'll just say, "yo charlie!"
You shoulda been kind, you shouldn't have snapped
Charlie only hits you once and now you're takin a nap
And when he leaves you decaptitated, crushed in the dust
You'll look up, and see your girl in the limo with us
You may think that's enough boy but i think not
Charlie kick his face again i think you missed a spot
I roll down the limo window and yell, "by the way eyes
You'll see your girl bucknaked givin charlie a message"
I'm serious, i'm not jokin, no doubt
You know how many doubters bones have been broken
You may not have known before but now you know
The reason why charlie mack is the first out the limo

[fresh prince]
Charlie mack.. the first out the limo
He's charlie mack.. the first out the limo

In closing, we'd like to say this, to you bustaz
If you're skeptical you'll probably get beat up, plus kid
Embarassed and laughed at, by all of your friends
And if you cross charlie mack it's the beginning of the end
Of life as you know it, you might not die, sir
But if you're not dead, you'll wish you were
But if you still wanna bug out, homeboy let's go
You can bug with charlie mack cause he's the first out the limo

He's charlie mack
And he's the first out the limo

Intro, the maestro,
Nice flow, hot like nitro,
Cool as ice though.
That type of docodimy,
Y'all know it's gotta be,
Who else could it be, but me.
Rub your eyes but hold the big billy.
It's dream supreme bean straight from philly.
It's the eclectic female attractor,
Rapper slash actor, right back at ya
And to the next millinium,
Many come but few are chosen.
See me servin' like the u.s. open.
Another type of hustler, listed at blockbuster.
Go and ask a movie usher
Who is he, he or she, sfp, movies, cd's, and tv's,
But uh uh, 'cause the day i take a break from that.
As i rule where a tank of gas take me at.
I used to rock these, red, i rock z's.
Now i rock the mb's, with twelves and v's.
Today sun high, up in the sky, from ny,
La la, to mi.

Just cruisin' where, baby, i don't care.
Just cruisin' as long as you take me there.
Just cruisin' somewhere to clear my mind.
Just cruisin' just cruisin'.

Easy wrote a sixty,
Flossin' ninety degrees.
Sony cartridges, ten cd's each,
Reach to the beach.
South side leanin'.
It ain't often i'm off and i'm feelin' for the top down, drop down.
Got me hot now heated up can't stop now.
What up cutie what sure sure is cooking now.
Yo i know, i'm spoken for can't hurt lookin', no.
Pop cd's, b.i.g.'s, and tupac's,
While cruisin' on the blocks,
Hittin' the hot spots,
Got my celly on o-f-f,
Golden arches got my belly goin' oh yes yes.
So let's just ease on down, ease on down the road.
No pager roll my hip,
As i'm rollin' my whip,
'cause today i'm on the solo creek.
Man, why you think i be workin' so hard all week?

I'm just cruisin' where, baby, i don't care.
Just cruisin' as long as you take me there.
Just cruisin' somewhere to clear my mind.
Just cruisin' just cruisin'.

Just cruisin' where, baby, i don't care.
Just cruisin' as long as you take me there.
Just cruisin' somewhere to clear my mind.
Just cruisin' just cruisin'.

Sun settin' in the s-k-y.
Must say i've had the best day i.
Tryin' to find an exit,
A place to chill not to hectic.
So i can spend some time with will.
Let the sun shine to the moonlight clearin' my mind.
Soul search, see what i find.
If i'm being the best lover and friend.
Am i being the best daddy i can?
I pray i am,
And i feel good today.
Reminiece as i'm cruisin' around the way.
Roll tight passed the park where i used to play.
Can't think of a better way to spend my day.
Uh, still findin' my way.
Still growin', petrol rowin', move soon showin'.
Gots to get goin' losing the light.
And the freaks come out at night.

Just cruisin' where, baby, i don't care.
Just cruisin' as long as you take me there.
Just cruisin' somewhere to clear my mind.
Just cruisin' just cruisin'.

I'm just cruisin' where, baby, i don't care.
Just cruisin' as long as you take me there.
Just cruisin' somewhere to clear my mind.
Just cruisin' just cruisin'.

{*jazzy jeff cuts and scratches slick rick*
"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[fresh prince]
Now let's get this party, started off the right way
Oww and hoe i think the crowd might say
When we're on stage you know you can't resist
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}
I'm the ultimate, and that's all i can say
I sat down for about eight hours a day
Tryin to figure out the proper description of me
And i came to the decision that
There's no one syllable or phrase
That can adequately describe this new craze
But i'll sum it up in one sentence, let's see
Ok, i've got it, "all praise me!"
Yup -- that's about the size of it
I know it sounds kinda strange, doesn't it?
But when we're on the stage you know you can't resist
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

{*jazzy jeff cuts and scratches slick rick*
"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[fresh prince]
It was a friday afternoon if i remember it correctly
But i can't quite recall the time exactly
But it was somewhere around, two or three or four
Oh forget it, let's just go on
Anyway i stepped out of school
Sneaks were gucci shirt was polo and my pockets were full
Blew some kisses to the girlies cause i like to tease
They started chantin my name, i said, "ladies.. please!"
I grabbed my friends and hopped in my benz
Grabbed on martini and rossi passed out to my posse
Things were lookin good, i had plans for later on
Plans for donna michelle, plans for stacy leshaun
Word! i was ready, i wonder if jeff's home
Let me give him a call, on my car phone
"yo jeff, what's shakin?" "coolin, whassup?"
"girlies" "i'm with it, come pick me up!!!"
I caught up with ready on the way to jeff's
A whole carload of girlies and they all was def
We walked into jeff's and said, "girls, you can't resist"
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

{*jazzy jeff cuts and scratches slick rick*
"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[fresh] yo jeff man, are you with me?
{jeff scratches.. "hit it!"}
[fresh] i didn't hear you man, are you with me?
{jeff scratches.. "hit it!"}
[fresh] i'm with it to get busy!

{*jazzy jeff cuts and scratches slick rick*
"..somethin like this, hit it!"}

[fresh prince]
Ready rock c, give jeff a hand!

{ready rock beatboxes while jeff scratches the same sample}

{*jazzy jeff cuts and scratches slick rick*
"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[fresh prince]
Throw away them jams, cause you don't need em anymore
Cause this hip-hop hit, is gonna keep you on the floor
If you dance everyday or if you never danced before
It doesn't matter if it's {"somethin like this"}
Time is essential, so let's make the best of it
Today we don't have a lot of time, so let's not throw it all away
Let's use this time in a very special way
Let's use it, {"somethin like this"}
I went outside at about 12:30
I saw a couple girlies, and they were lookin pretty good!
.. if you know what i mean
So i freshened my breath and stepped on the scene
I walked over to em, stepped in between them
One stepped to the other, i think that i've seen him
Somewhere before i said, "sweethear, you might have"
She said, "oh yeah, it was last night
At that party," i said, "yeah i tried to talk to you there
But you were actin, as if you were scared"
She said, "i'm not scared now," i said, "bet, well let's go then"
She said, "but hold up, what about my friend?"
I said, "i got a friend!" so the three of us left
Went back to my crib, and gave a call to jeff
Five minutes later, jeff walked in
And i thought to myself, "yeah, now the fun begins!"
But the girls started buggin, and they said, "now we want
Dinner in the best resteraunt in town
We want caviar and lobster tails, both by candlelight
And dom perignon," i said, "yeah right!"
Y'all must be crazy, and jeff said, "y'know
I really think it's time for these ladies to go"
We walked em to the door and told em they were dismissed
And it went a little {"somethin like this"} *door slams*
But that was ok, that was alright
Cause we still had fun that night -- yaknowit!
The moral of the story is plain and visible
We always watch out for those kind of women
But the past is the past and the present is the present
And we feel that everyone should be sitting down
{"so you all don't miss"}
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[doug e. beatboxing?]
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[doug e. beatboxing?]
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[doug e. beatboxing?]
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

[doug e. beatboxing?]
{"as we go a little somethin like this, hit it!"}

But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away

Just last week when i was walking down the street
I observed this lovely lady that i wanted to meet
I walked up to her i said hello
She said you're kind of cute i said yes i know
But by the way sweetheart what's your name
She said my friends like to call me exotic elaine
I said my name is the prince and she said why
I said well i don't know i'm just a hell of a guy
But enough about me yo let's talk about you
And all the wonderful things that you and i can do
I popped some cash and in a little bit of time
I showed some cash and the girl was mine
I took her over town i wined her and dined her
She ask me did i like her i said well kinda
All of a sudden she jumped out her seat
Snatched me up by my wrist and took me out to the street
She started grabbin all over me kissing and hugging
So i shoved her away i said you better stop buggin
She got mad looked me dead in my face
Threw her hands in the air and yelled out rape
I got scared when she started to yell
So i handed her my wallet and ran like hell
I was duckin through alleys right and left
But when the cops caught up they almost beat me to death
I was arrested charged with agrivated assault
(yo clancy we got him)
But it wasn't my fault
Nevertheless don't mean to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away

I was in a bar one friday night
Cooling watching a mike tyson fight
I was maxin and relaxin sippin on tequilla
When this girl walked up she said hi my name is sheila
I responded by saying hello
She paid for my drink and then said let's go
20 minutes later things were starting to cook
As we pulled up into her house i said i'm with you toots
The music was soft and there was wine in the glasses
She started winking and making little passes
At me she pat me close that's when she got bold
She started feeling up my back i said oh your hands are cold
We went to her bedroom thinking of one thing
Took the phone off the hook to avoid the annoying ring
I carresed her body and i kissed her cheek
And that's when i observed those satin bed sheets
I felt that it was time for me to make my move
I thought i better hurry up before i busted a groove
I leaned down to kiss her but then out of the blue
A door slammed and a voice said baby where are you
Her boyfriend busted in he grinned an evil grin
And said boy i'm a tear your butt limb from limb
I was scared as hell where i was supposed to go
I just yelled geronimo and jumped out the window
Just my luck we were in a snow storm
And all i had was my underwear on to keep my warm
And to top the night off i had to break in my place
Because my keys were on pants back on sheila's book case
I was done sneezing and coughing
I hope this doesn't happen to often
But nevertheless don't mean to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhymes and get the hell away

Jazzy: yo man you think they see your point
Prince: i don't know i don't think they really do
Jazzy: i think you should give 'em another example
Prince: awright give me a scratch let's make it funky right here

I got a ring on my phone may 5th last year
It was my girlfriend betty i said hello dear
I was just about to call you i got a couple tickets to the run dmc concert
(i'm wit it)
It's six o'clock now at eight will you be ready
(yeah)
Aight fine see you then betty
I combed my hair washed and brushed my teeth
Got funky fresh dressed in my la cox ????
Got to betty's at eight i was ready to jet
Until betty's mon said betty's not ready yet
I sat there for at least an hour
It was ten after nine before she got in the shower
9:35 she comes downstairs
And said i need a little longer to finish my hair
At ten o'clock we had then missed the show
She comes downstairs and says let's go
Go where go to sleep i'm gone
I was steamin like a demon as i drove home
But it just goes to show
Not trying to bust your bubble
But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
So next time a girl gives you the play
Just remember my rhyme just remember my rhymes
Take heed to my rhymes and get the hell away

Jazzy:
Man first your parents just don't understand
Then you having these crazy nightmares
Prince:

Jazzy: what's next
Prince: now these girls man you know how it is
Can't live wit 'em can't live wit'out 'em

(intro/chorus)

It's just the things that you do (5x)
The way you do the things you do

(verse 1)

Ain't yo' fault the alarm clock sound
I grab my shoe and turn the damn thing down
But now it's 9 o'clock and i still ain't up up yet
Work on time, yeah i admire the concept
You got me journin' and i mean anticipating
Seeing you i can't wait and so not concentrate
My mind is blind of all the times thinking of you
And the way you do things you do

(chorus)

(verse 2)

I walk in the park for a midnight rynic
For a slow dance, romance, my (?) of see through
I wanna be with you
But i ain't hiding
A wave of love and i'm gliding and ridening
Things like that when you hear me
Sayin' sort of sounds like that same old clich?climbing the highest mountain and swimming the deepest sea
But i can't front, i want you to be want me
Cause baby when you grab me tightly
You send chills and tend to insight me
When you ?coress? and fumble me lightly
Oh girl watch up cause she might be
Settin' yourself up the way that you tease me
Sooner or later you might have to please me
It's just something about you
The way you do things you do

(chorus)

(verse 3)

Now why oh why would an incredibly fly guy like me
Be chasing one lady
It's just something about you
The way you carry yourself when you're out to
Seein' how i sort of captifying style, i've parked the feelin'
But your whippers are peeling
Since this is a subject that i brought up
I just mind as well admit that i'm caught up
It ain't the clothes that you're wearin'
Your perfume or the sytle that that your hair's in
It ain't your body, how slim your waist is
Your new jeans and how pretty your face is
But i feel funny when it close pack sillity
Make it wonder what's gettin' in to me
It's just something about you
The way you do the things you do

(chorus)

(bridge)

It's nothing that you do (2x)
The way you do the things you do

(verse 4)

The mystery is some this world ?panda?
Just sittin' back let my mind wonda
Whatta, whadda, whodda, whada hell is this young lady
Drivin so crazy
Reply in thought pose like the thinker
I play you with kiss or a winka
Or a smile just to show you
It's something about you
The way you do the things you do

Come here, come here
Come on out, don't worry
You want me to chase you don't you?
Just come here, i've got you now
Sss

The way you do the things you

(chorus)
It's just the things that you do
(the way you do the things you do) (10x)

(bridge)

The way (repeated several times)

[jeff]
Let, let, let's go

[announcer]
Calling all cars, calling all cars
Be on the lookout someone has stolen the d.j.
Agent f.p. get on the case immediately

[jeff]
Lets, lets go

[fresh prince]
I got the call about eleven fifteen
Twelve o'clock arrived on the scene
Looked around and things were ill
The party was at a dead stand still
People sittin' around no music
The situation was somewhat confusing
But i'm a detective i knew right away what happened
Somebody stole the d.j.
Who or why i had no clue
But i knew what i had to do
No eat no sleep, just work
Then walked past this fly mini-skirt
I had to dis her quick before she greeted
Come on baby i'm working, beat it
Come on i'm busy, just go away
Gotta find out who stole the d.j.

[jeff]
Lets, lets go

[fresh prince]
This mystery needed to quickly be solved
Cause there were kids involved
Friday and saturday nights had no songs
Why, because the d.j. was gone
Smiles you used to dance and sing around
Now were replaced by frowns
And it was up to me to solve the mystery
And get back the disc jockey
I found an eye witness
But his breath wreaked of chitlins
All i know is his breath did pound
Buddy forget it, just write it down
No fingerprints no clues
The only witness was the bad breath dude
It was up to me to save the day
And find out who stole the d.j.

[jeff]
Lets, lets go

[fresh prince]
Through the door this dame walked in
I swear to james bond a perfect ten
I thought to myself i'm working just forget it
Then i thought well maybe i've got a minute
So i took her down to the station
To the back room for some interrogation
Captain doesn't like it, but i must confess
I interrogate best when i'm undressed
We were in there for hours drained
To see who would break first, me or the dame
Then she broke, and her mind was my possession
(prince i love you)
That wasn't the question
I only wanna know one thing
I've gotta make the kids dance and sing
So tell me now cause crime don't pay baby
Who stole the d.j.


I scarrowed the city but still no clue
Lost like a cause, what should i do
Then like a bolt of ligtening it hit me
Ah, the worst villain in the city
I wasn't prepared for what was in store
He had stolen the d.j. before
You all know this ruthless foe
To his hideout
(let, lets go)
Tip toed up the steps
Slowly and ever so quietly i crept
But out of nowhere i was attacked
Just like in the movies, clubbed from the back
I felt like a fool
(man, you need to go back to private eye school)
I was the dunce of the day
There i was tied up with the d.j.

[jeff]
Let's go

[fresh prince]
There we were both tied to a pole
I told the d.j. relax its under control
(relax man, we both goin' down you can't even keep yourself untied)
Do you want to be free or not
I'm gonna get us out of this tight spot
I planned this all along cap
There a knife in my swiss army hat
With the blade i cut the rope
(man your secret services spy hats dope)
I radio'd for back up cars
So we could put this crook behind bars
Another criminal off the streets
Another d.j. back to his beats
I walked in the club and i was happy to say
Ladies and gentlemen, here's your d.j.

[jeff]
Let's go

[announcer]
Calling all cars, calling all cars
Be on the lookout, (let, lets go)
Someone has stolen another d.j.
Calling private eye fresh prince
Be on the lookout (let, lets go)
Someone has stolen another d.j.
Get on the case immediately

[jeff]
Lets go, lets go, lets go, lets go

[fresh prince]
It's new, it's out of the ordinary
It's rather extrordinary, so yo bust this commentary
A literary, genius, and a superior beat creator
Have come together, and we made a
Musical composition which we think is a remedy
To cure all the dance floors that's empty
You wanna dance? we got what you want
Jazzy jeff and fresh prince bustin out with the brand new funk

It was kind of an accident, the way that it happened
One day i was rappin, and on the beat, jeff was backin me up
And all of a sudden, he brought in a cut
And i dropped my microphone and said, "what the...?
Hold up, jeff, wait a minute, play it"
He just smiled and said, "yeah def ain't it?"
It was {funky} it made wanna {get, get down!}
And we knew almost at once it was the {brand new funk}
So we continued to listen to it
And we knew it was def when i started rappin to it
So i gave a hi-five to jeff
And without hesitation popped in my cassette
I took it home that night, and analyzed it
Rewound the tape over and over, and memorized it
That friday, we went to the club
And out and out cold tore it up!
You shoulda seen the people dancin and shakin and movin and jumpin
And spinnin and clappin, while the beatboxin was groovin
And screamin and yellin while on the microphone i was flowin
Fresh rhymes i was showin, the people say, "yo keep goin"
So i continued to rock, while jeff was on the beatbox
Special assistance from my homeboy ready rock
People barged just to get up front
To get a bird's eye view of what we call the brand new funk

Yo jeff! {rock the beat}
Yo jeff! {rock the beat}
Yo jeff! {rock the beat}
* jazzy jeff cuts and scratches *

Yo jeff! {rock the beat}
Yo jeff! {rock the beat}
Yo jeff! {rock the beat with your hands..}
* jazzy jeff cuts and scratches *

Now get funky with the beat!
* jeff starts spinning backwards *
Now turn it all around!

The most original, amazing, astounding, miraculous
Remarkable, startling, sensational, stupendous
Music, that has ever been created
Is ours - but believe me it was complicated
But we have done it, so now we can breathe
A long awaited sigh of relief
This isn't a publicity stunt
It's the raw untouched, pure, hard brand new funk!

{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
* jazzy jeff cuts and scratches *
{rock the beat with your hands..}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
{rock the beat}
* jazzy jeff cuts and scratches *
{rock the beat with your hands..}

[tatyana]
Uh, uh, uh
Oh, oh yeah
Baby

[tatyana]
From the moment that i saw you babe
All i think about is loving you
Every time that you are near
I just can't help but stare
I'm dreaming of eternity with you
So maybe i can

1 - [tatyana]
Run away with you
Imagine all the things we'd do
Call my name
And make this fantasy for real
Run away with you
Imagine all the things we'd do
Call my name
And make this fantasy for real

2 - [tatyana]
Can't hold it, i can't fight it
Want you and i can't deny it
It's all about the things you do
Boy, you knock me out
Can't hold it, i can't fight it
Want you and i can't deny it
It's all about the things you do
Boy, you knock me out

[tatyana]
Can you feel the vibes i'm sending, baby?
All my energy and thoughts towards you
There's now way i could let go
Of all these dreams and hopes
Anxieties so deep, feelings so new
Just maybe i can

Repeat 1

Repeat 2

[tatyana]
Falling for you, this love's a tko
Falling for you, baby
Falling for you, this love's a tko
Falling for you, baby

[will smith](tatyana)
Uh, uh, uh
Here it is a groove slightly transformed
Again, but with a tatyana ali spin
I knew ever since she was ten
As fresh prince from back then
I had a synch she would win
Whatever clique she was in
Now she's all grown up not ashley
Mad sexy, true but classy
She in the fast lane under my wing
Kissing the sky
Tatyana ali, girl you knock me out
(cause boy you knock me out)

Repeat 2 till end

No no you old coop, he a...he a boxer man

Let me tell ya i went to his fight a couple months ago.
I seen him hit this boy, and he hit the boy so hard
His head flew off into the eigtheenth row

(laughing)

They had to get his head out of the eighteenth row

[prince & jeff]
I was in jeff's crib one night about eight
And we were watchin'a couple of mike tyson fight tapes
Jeff was like...

Man, you see how hard mike's punchin'?

Come on jeff the other guy was just lungin'
Left, right, left, right, another k.o.
If that was me i'd a been ok though
The very next day i gave russell a ring
With j.l. and omar we all called don king
I said 'yeah, don i got a problem

Tell 'em prince

'yeah what's up? what you sayin? you tryin' to solve 'em?'
'forget the small talk let's get to the nitty gritty'
'me and mike, two months, trump, atlantic city'

Yo, you got this you gonna bust dude up

Yeah, you can be my trainer

Word up?

I'm rough like a freight train smooth like ice
And yo jeff, straight up, i think i can mike tyson

Man, you can beat him, you can beat him

Yo man, word up
Yo i put on a couple of pounds man we can do this

You can do it

Newspaper boy, old men:

Extra, extra read all about it
Fresh prince challenges iron mike tyson to a fight
(laughing)
Ah he's crazy

Ain't that the boy who knocked the guy's head in the fifthteen row?

Hey leroy, you read the paper?
That boy done lost his man

[prince, barber]
There was press conference to see what training i was doing
Before then i had never heard reporters booing
Cameras flashing i was in the middle
I didn't wanna look dumb so i exagerrated a little
I said uh i been training 2o hours a day
Lifting big old cars and big bails of hay (that's what he's doin')
And i run 10,000 miles every morning
Thinkin' about mike and my moment of glory
(tell 'em more)
I drink water 20 gallons a pop
And i can throw a volkswagon a whole half block
(he can do it too)
And 4 million sit ups...in a minute....
..i ain't lying i did it
(he done it)
The general public thought i was a fool
I was gettin' dissed but i guess that was cool
Well gettin' dissed is never good
But i was even gettin' dissed in my old nieghborhood
I was at the corner at the top of my block
There was a couple of people standing outside of the barber shop
It was larwence, my barber, and franny
He yelled out

Hey, prince, you can win!

I said 'really?' and i stopped to chat

You could beat him man, if you hit him wit a bat
Ha ha...you gon' get whipped
But can i have your shoes when he break your neck?

Everybody was laughin' out loud
I thought at least my own grandma would be proud
I went to her house and snuck in to surpise her
I heard her on the phone
(a thousand bucks on tyson)

[prince, ring announcer]
It's fight day and man am i hyped
Woah i can't wait to see mike
Boy i'm hyped ready to be my thing
Trump castle casino

In this corner...weighing in
At a mere 165 pounds, the lighting rodent,
The fresh prince! (booing)

And in this corner...
The heavyweight champion of the world...
Iron mike tyson (cheering)

I came out hustling sliding and grabbing
Slippin' and dippin' hustlin' and jabbin'
For a second i looked good out there
But then mike brought to reality my worst nightmare
One punch, that's all it took (oooh)
He hit me in my ribs and my insides shook
Now how can i say this and be a little discreet
Let's just say that my bowels released
I called timeout and went back to my corner
Said to my coach 'ain't no way i'm goin'
The hell back out there, man you can't forget it'
My body's like a punchin' bag and mike is gonna (hit it)
They tried to make me go meet my doom
But i sucker punched my coach and hauled to my dressing room
The next day the headline in the town
'fresh prince breaks camp, tyson wins first round'
Some fool asked why i ran away
I said 'a good run is better than a bad stand anyday'
My career is over as far as fightin'
But i don't know what made me think i can beat mike tyson

2 old men:

Hey leroy!

Yeah

Did you see the fight? did you see the fight?

The..the..the football player?

No the boxer, come on man
I was at the fight last night
I paid four hundred and seventy fo' thousand dollars
For my ticket right...

Ah, you weren't at no fight
I seen you around here last night

..and the boy..the boy ran out the ring

You always lying

I ain't lying...

You lie to your grandkids..

..i seen it...

...you been lying ever since you was a little kid

...mike tyson punched the boy in his ribs, and his leg fell off
His leg fell off and it fell over...

...you always lying

...and it knocked the hbo camerman's camera fell out his hand
I said, god damn, i couldn't beleive it leroy
You shoulda been there...you definetly shoulda been there

...i was right next to you playin' checkers

{jeff lets the sample of vincent price cackling go he was holding back}

Word, rhythm trax - house party style
Yo jeff we rocked em, now let's get out of here

{ready rock does the intro to donkey kong}

[fresh prince]
Ever since i was younger, i was into video games
Tron or whatever, it didn't matter the name
Thousands of my dollars, have been poured
Into all types of games, tryin to get the high score
But now i think i have a favorite
It's me against an ape, he's got my girl, i've got to save her!
Oh no, i feel an attach comin on
Yo ready rock c i wanna play a game of donkey kong!

{ready rock does the entire intro and starts beatboxing after}

[fresh prince]
It used to be a problem this addiction i have
I would feel the urge, then i'd go stark raving mad!
Break into the arcade, screamin and hollerin
Anticipatin puttin twenty-five dollars in
Any machine, i was out of control!
I didn't need quarters i brought, $10 bank rolls
Bags of quarters, i was insane
People thought that i worked there, and asked me for change
But i would get defensive and yell, "leave me alone!
These are my quarters stupid, go get your own!"
Dude walked away with this look in his eyes like,
"yo man.. i wonder what's wrong with that guy?"
I was addicted, a video burn-out
And i would crazy when the guy would have to turn out
The lights at midnight, i'd fall on my knees and say,
"have a heart pal, one more game please?"
Some nights i might sleep on the subway
Or outside of the arcade til it opened up the next day
And when it opened at a quarter to ten
It was the same old thing all over again
I was doin bad, my future was bleek
I'd rather play games than eat or sleep
Until one day, this guy came along
He didn't have a radio but he was playin a song
I got curious, so i said, "yo!
What's that noise?" {what noise? i don't know!}
"no fool, that noise you was makin there!"
{what this?! *starts beatboxing*} "yeahhhh!
That was def man, where'd you learn to do that?"
{man, i don't know, i guess i always knew that
I had this talent deep down inside
You wanna hear some more man?} "yeah!" {come on let's take a ride}
He made sounds like i never heard before
And he still had more!
Then he got me hyped when he played this incredible song
And i +lost my mind+ when ready c played donkey kong

{ready rock does the intro, kong shaking the beams,
The "how high can you go?" music, and the actual game sounds}

Yo ready, get funky with it!

{ready gets busy on the beatbox}

Yo jeff man what you doin? give ready a hand

{jazzy jeff throws on another beat}

Now my life is wonderful and i feel great
I haven't been in an arcade since seventy-eight
Thanks to ready c i'm on an upward trail
Because he's always by my side, he never fails me
Whenever i have a video attack
He's right there by my back, keepin me on track
So if i bug out, and act like a lunatic
He does donkey kong, and as soon as it
Gets to my eardrums, from his vocal chords
I get hyped up!
No matter how bored i am, he always comes through
Oh my fault, hold up, wait, let me tell you who
Ready rock c, here's a brief description
Of the things that he can do in his musical position
Ready rock c makes sounds with his mouth
Yo ready give an example of what i'm talkin about

{ready rock beatboxes and then does pac man's death sound}

{game over!}
{yo, scrammy, why you still standin there?}
{the game is over.. hahahahaha, sucker!}

You know parents are the same
No matter time nor place
They don't understand that us kids
Are going to make some mistakes
So to you, all the kids all across the land
There's no need to argue
Parents just don't understand
"parents" 24 lines, 734 characters.

I remember one year
My mom took me school shopping
It was me, my brother, my mom, oh, my pop, and my little sister
All hopped in the car
We headed downtown to the gallery mall
My mom started bugging with the clothes she chose
I didn't say nothing at first
I just turned up my nose
She said, "what's wrong? this shirt cost $20"
I said, "mom, this shirt is plaid with a butterfly collar!"
The next half hour was the same old thing
My mother buying me clothes from 1963
And then she lost her mind and did the ultimate
I asked her for adidas and she bought me zips!
I said, "mom, what are you doing, you're ruining my rep"
She said, "you're only sixteen, you don't have a rep yet"
I said, "mom, let's put these clothes back, please"
She said "no, you go to school to learn not for a fashion show"
I said, "this isn't sha na na, come on mom, i'm not bowzer
Mom, please put back the bell-bottom brady bunch trousers
But if you don't want to i can live with that but
You gotta put back the double-knit reversible slacks"
She wasn't moved - everything stayed the same
Inevitably the first day of school came
I thought i could get over, i tried to play sick
But my mom said, "no, no way, uh-uh, forget it"
There was nothing i could do, i tried to relax
I got dressed up in those ancient artifacts
And when i walked into school, it was just as i thought
The kids were cracking up laughing at the clothes mom bought
And those who weren't laughing still had a ball
Because they were pointing and whispering
As i walked down the hall
I got home and told my mom how my day went
She said, "if they were laughing you don't need the,
"cause they're not good friends"
For the next six hours i tried to explain to my mom
That i was gonna have to go through this about 200 more times
So to you all the kids all across the land
There's no need to argue
Parents just don't understand

Oh-kay, here's the situation
"parents" 68 lines, 2662 characters.
My parents went away on a week's vacation and
They left the keys to the brand new porsche
Would they mind?
Umm, well, of course not
I'll just take it for a little spin
And maybe show it off to a couple of friends
I'll just cruise it around the neighborhood
Well, maybe i shouldn't
Yeah, of course i should
Pay attention, here's the thick of the plot
I pulled up to the corner at the end of my block
That's when i saw this beautiful girlie girl walking
I picked up my car phone to perpetrate like i was talking
You should've seen this girl's bodily dimensions
I honked my horn just to get her attention
She said, "was that for me?"
I said, "yeah"
She said, "why?"
I said, "come on and take a ride with a helluva guy"
She said, "how do i know you're not sick?
You could be some deranged lunatic"
I said, "c'mon toots - my name is the prince =
Beside, would a lunatic have a porsche like this?"
She agreed and we were on our way
She was looking very good and so was i, i must say - word
We hit mcdonald's, pulled into the drive
We ordered two big macs and two large fries with cokes
She kicked her shoes off onto the floor
She said, "drive fast, speed turns me on"
She put her hand on my knee, i put my foot on the gas
We almost got whiplash, i took off so fast
The sun roof was open , the music was high
And this girl's hand was steadily moving up my thigh
She had opened up three buttons on her shirt so far
I guess that's why i didn't notice that police car
We're doing ninety in my mom's new porsche
And to make this long story short - short
When the cop pulled me over i was scared as hell
I said, "i don't have a license but i drive very well, officer"
I almost had a heart attack that day
Come to find out the girl was a twelve-year-old runaway
I was arrested, the car was impounded
There was no way for me to avoid being grounded
My parents had to come off from vacation to get me
I'd rather be in jail than to have my father hit me
My parents walked in
I got my grip, i said, "ah, mom, dad, how was your trip?"
They didn't speak
I said, "i want to plead my case"
But my father just shoved me in the car by my face
That was a hard ride home, i don't know how i survived
They took turns -
One would beat me while the other one was driving
I can't believe it, i just made a mistake
Well parents are the same no matter time nor place
So to you all the kids all across the land
Take it form me
Parents just don't understand
