God damn

The bigger the cap, the bigger the peelin'

And when dealin' with Da Lench Mob you gots to know steady mobbin' is not just the name of this jam

But a way of life

Bound together by motherfuckers that's known to break em' off something

Give it to me

There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood

Four or five niggas in a mothership

Better known as a deuce and we all wanna smother shit

Bent, front and back glass got tint

Tryin' to get our hands on some dollars and cents

And fools can't hold us

Every chance we get, we hittin' up the rollers

Comin' up short of the green guys

And I might start slangin' bean pies

Or the bootleg t-shirt of the month

With "U Can't Touch This" on the front

I'm out to get rich

'Cause life ain't nothin' but money and fuck a bitch

They drop like dominoes

And if you didn't know, Ice Cube got drama, hoes

So after the screwin'

I bust a nut and get up and put on my white Ewings

I'm out the door

All you might get is a rubber on the floor

'Cause I'm ready to hit the road like Mario Andretti

Bitch, 'cause I'm steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

Steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

There goes the neighborhood

Bustin' caps in the mix

Rather be judged by twelve than carried by six

'Cause I'm gettin' major

Fuck PacTel, move to Sky Pager

Told all my friends

Don't drink 8-Ball 'cause St. Ides is given ends

Fools get drunk and wanna compete

Slapboxin' in the street

Niggas get mad, tempers are flarin'

'Cause they got a few bitches starin'

Just for the nappy heads

But scandalous bitches make for happy feds

I make it my duty to cuss 'em

Out 'cause I just don't trust 'em

And if you tell on me I'm bombin' on Betty

Bitch shoulda known I was steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

Steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

There goes the neighborhood

Since one-time so hot

Got me a stash spot in my hooptie for the Glock

'Cause I'm rollin' on rims

Eating soul food, neckbones from M&M's

Grubbin' like a motherfucker

Greasy-ass lips, now I gots to take a shit

Saw Sir Jinx bellin'

When I hit a left on Ruthelen, "What up, loc?"

Don't you know that niggas get smoked

That take they life for a joke? Get in, nigga

I'll take you to the pad soon

Went to mom's house and dropped a load in the bathroom

Jumped back in my lowrider

Comin' out feelin' about ten pounds lighter

Went to Bone's house so I can get the gat

Looking for the place where all the hoes kick it at

Lench Mob ain't nothin' but tramps

For hoes lickin' nuts like stamps

One fool bumpin' music for the yamps

But Ice Cube had more amps, get in, bitch

'Cause I had the jam on

And I don't want to hear shit about a tampon

Gimme the nappy and make me happy

The ho' said, "Pappy, could you slap me

On the ass hard and fast

And could please try not to leave a gash?"

I said, "Yeah, but I don't play sex

Without puttin' on the latex"

Slipped on the condom

Fucked around and dropped the bomb, son

And it came out sort of like confetti

In for the night, no longer steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

Steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

There goes the neighborhood

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

Steady mobbin'

Have you ever seen such a sight in your life?

There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood

Get the radio, get the radio

There goes the neighborhood
