BOYS WITH DA BASS
Intro:
(mysterious music)
"Absolutely no one under 17 will be admitted
without parent or certified adult guardian."
"They ll fry your brain. They re sick as hell!"
"Jolly good fun."
"You ll die dancin !"
"Darkgliding shapes that glide every long inch ... "
"Buy em or die a thousand deaths!"
Chorus:
(Heyy!)
(2 Live Crew)
(Boys with the bass!)
("You better know it!")
Verse 1: Fresh Kid Ice
That s right y allyou heard it cause we said it
And if you can t read in the magazines
You read about who? You know the Crew! Fresh outta Pac
And the first to put the bass on the 24-track
Some said it wouldn t worksome said it wouldn t last
In New Yorkthey say that the tempo s too fast
You disregardedbut the albums got charted
We put em in the stores and millions habe bought it
An underground soundnot liked by radio
You hear it in the cars and at the dicso
On the airwaveswe misbehave
We re too boldtoo rugged in our nasty ways
From dirty minds come dirty rhymes
We re not gonna beg for your time
You don t play it? That s cool with me
But somehowour bass still reaches the street
As long as we got ityou can get it
People want the bassso some try to steal it
From behind our backand not in our face
Cause 2 Live is the Crewthe boys with the bass!
Chorus
Verse 2: Brother Marquis
Holdin out own in the South-East region
When you come to the bottompledge to our allegiance
I m glad to say that we re the proud owners
The rock-and-rollersyou can t us this over
The name of the game is supply and demand
We supply the bass while you demand our jams
We could not wait to bring our bass to you
Because in this gameyou lagyou lose
Seewe serve our bass rawstraight up and not false
This is the kind you dance toand not on 8-Ball
Plenty of bassthe beatand the rhyme
That my homeboy Mr. Mixx carefully designed
Hittin hard as helland always droppin
Bass is the reason why you are rockin
When you hear our songsand you see our face
Put two and two together; we re the boys with the bass!
Chorus
("It s the best in this city!")
