Fresh Dressed Cause I shop at Modell's Deep in Brooklyn I ride the L Used to ride the D to beat the morning bell At Edward R. Murrow out on Avenue L. Well, we be grillin' cheese and flippin' flapjacks With the diamond stylus Yo, we're cutting wax We're the super elastic bubble plastic Got ethereal material that's straight up classic You try to vex reject but you should respect Or we'll have JC send you out a FedEx So don't start to flex up in the discotheque Or we'll make you extinct like a tyranosaurus rex We gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way 3 the hard way, 3 the hard way Your rhyme technique It is antique To all my heads Qu'est-ce-que tu fabriques? Che cazzo fai? Come stai? Ho fatto molte telefonate OOPS! Gotcha Clutch like Piazza Sneak between the sheets So hide the matzoh Holla back challah bread... next We are the crew that put the crew in cruex I can see that Def Jam doesn't recognize me I'm Mike D, The one who put the satin in your panties Time to count MC's in this place to be Not 5 not 4 not 2 just 3 We gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way 3 the hard way, 3 the hard way 1 1 1, 2 2 2, 3 3 3, what up? Roundhouse kick the mic out your hand Drunken Mantis, my name brand So if you're slick with the tricks and the sleight of hand I'm hip to the shit that you're trying to scam Ginip Ginop I got shit to pop I'm an exceptional professional That just don't stop O pack up your bags and your mic And don't wait E.T. phone home Now get the fuck out my face! You know we shake 'em, bake 'em Then we take 'em Treat MC's like leaves Go out and rake 'em If you see our CD's on Canal before we make 'em Then we'll have no other alternative But to serve you on a platter like steak-ummm We gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way We're gonna rock this motherfucker Like 3 the hard way 3 the hard way, 3 the hard way
