Uhh, it's really hard to take this I'd like to thank Paul Spaghetti, the whole Warner family And of course, the fans Bobby Wasserstein and also Clive Davis, the people at Sony BMG and ASCAP And I definitely can't forget God 'Cause without God, I wouldn't've got this Do you know why you really win an award? I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! Look at 'em, they don't know no better Tap dance! The music is boring, the same black t-shirts and rock guitars Everybody standin' in front of the blue screens with girls and cars Lame private jet scenes, who didn't do the suits and cigars Made up backgrounds with a bullhorn in my hand Everybody need to stop it and get back down 200 People dancin' all together behind a singer like a clown Producers usin' the Hello Kitty soft sound 14 Videos that play everyday get monotonous on TV Come on, change the program, there's 8 Million groups out there, Stevie Same artwork on every CD The steps they do for checks got artists doin' dangerous stage shows Flyin' on things out the ceiling, ready to break they neck Moby and Alanis Morissette, just wear A t-shirt, they don't break a sweat I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! Look at 'em, they don't know no better Tap dance! MCs performin' with 20 dudes on stage Stuck in they underground monkey cage Livin' the life of incense, with imitation poetry They trapped in the unknown hip-hop phase They think they classic like Corvette Stingrays D-minus material action, don't get the consumer satisfaction 20 Wack cuts on your album with one single Includin' the once-a-year Christmas jingle Everybody turnin' demon pitchfork religious And flock to gospel with tight pants like pigeons Play the piano with no soul with your Hands freezin', cold with mittens Outside concerts with head mics on, got you frostbitten Jumpin' out of a bunch of props, like Jack-in-the-Box It's like goin' to see a wack act at S.O.B.s Fakin' Jamaican with dreadlocks, some guy named Rob Harvey Tryna steal everything from Bob Marley Song to song, you wrong, one hit wonders get a lot of spins Why? 'Cause I'm already knowin' people Like you don't be around that long These guys right now think they on top of the Empire State building Like King Kong Steaks and entrees got 'em livin' the animal way Sittin' in the chair, the pop audience keep clappin' All they see is the chained-up grizzly bear I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! I's a dance for you, put my suit on for you, sir! Look at 'em, they don't know no better Tap dance!
