(You want me to say it now? C'mon, let's go!) All you cats in the back if you ain't wack If you're on the side flygirls and guys All the people in the middle when Spin drops the needle If there's moneymakers in the front, you know what I want I went to a party the other day around the way With my partner, her name P-E-P-A We were dressed to kill, ready and willin' to make a killin' Met Spinderella at the door, what was she doin' Salt? Chillin' We walked inside a man asked the three for ID When he found out who we was he said, "Go ahead girls, y'all can go in free The drinks are on the house, anything you want is yours" Then he gave us the keys to the V.I.P. doors I said... CHORUS "Hey, you, I like it like that!" Hey, you, I like it like this If I had a wish before I die I'd like to have it like this for the rest of my life Chillin' at the bar drinking Moet and caviar People pointin' at us cuz they know who we are Word had gotten around that S-N-P was in the place Now they gathered around to get a little taste "Yo, please, baby, please, I wanna hear you MC" Is what this guy and his friend had said to Pepa and me Although we tried to resist, but then I said, "Hey, what's the use? One song won't hurt, and besides, his friend is cute" Spindy got on a set, handed a mic to me and Pep Then we started to rhyme, and I'm sure you know the rest They said... CHORUS It feels good when people are on it, don't it? You know it does Being treated like a queen on any scene just like we was Call it juice, call it jocks, whatever it is I know it rocks Till you sweat me and expect me to like it a lot And say... CHORUS Yo, what are you doin'? Put the beat back on C'mon, stop playin' around Hurb! Yeah, boy, you know... you know we need some (bass!) Yeah, it's chill now It's ok, now let it play so we can say... CHORUS
