Yeah, gotta say what's up to my nigga Slick Rick

For those who don't like it, eat a dick

But for those who with me, sing that shit

As it go a little something like this

Lodi Dodi, we likes to party

We don't cause trouble, we don't bother nobody

We're just some niggas who're on the mic

And when we rock up on the mic, we rock the mic (right)

For all my doggs keepin' y'all in health

Just to see you smile and enjoy yourself

Cause it's cool when you cause the cozy conditioning

Which we create, cause that's our mission

So listen close, to what we say

Because this types of shit happens every day

I woke up around 10 o'clock in the morning

I gave myself a strech, up, a morning yawn, and

Went to the bathroom to wash up

I threw some soap on my face and put my hands up on a cup

And said "Um, mirror mirror, on, the wall

Who is the top dog of them all?"

There was a ruffle duffle, five minutes it lasted

The mirror said, "You are, you conceited bastard!"

Well that's true! That's why we never have no beef

So I slipped on my khakis and my gold leaf

Used Oil of Olay cause my skin gets pale

And then I got the file, for my fingernails

I'm true to the style on my behalf

I put some bubbles in the tub so I can take a bubble bath

Clean, dry, was my body and hair

I threw on my brand new doggy underwear

For all the bitches I might take home

I got the Johnson's Baby Powder and Cool Water cologne

Now I'm fresh, dressed, like a million bucks

Threw on my white socks, with my all-blue Chucks

Stepped out the house, stopped short, "oh no"

I went back in, "I forgot my Indo!"

Then I dilly (dally) I ran through an (alley)

I bumped into this smoker named (Sally) from the (Valley)

This was a girl playing hard-to-get

So I said "What's wrong?" cause she looked upset

She said um:

It's all because of you, I'm feeling sad and blue

You went away, now my life is filled with rainy days

I love you so, how much you'll never know

Cause you took your dope away from me

Damn, now what was I to do?

She's crying over me and she was feelin blue

I said, "Um, don't cry, dry your eye

And here comes your mother with those two little guys"

Her mean mother steps then says to me "Hi!"

Decked Sally in the face and punched her in the eye

Punched her in the belly and stepped on her feet

Slammed the child on the hard concrete

The bitch was strong, the kids was gone

Something was wrong I said, "What was goin on?"

I tried to break it up, I said, "Stop it, just leave her!"

She said, "If I can't smoke none, she can't either!"

She grabbed me closely by my socks

So I broke the hell out, and I grabbed my sack of rocks

But um, they gave chase, they caught up quick

They started crying on my shoes and grabbin my dick

And saying

"Why don't you give me a play

So we can break it down the Long Beach way

And if you give me that okay

I'll give you all my love today

Doggy, Doggy, Doggy, can't you see?

Somehow your words just hypnotize me

And I just love your jazzy ways

Doggy Dogg, your love is here to stay"

And on and on and on she kept going

The bitch been around before my mother born!

I said "Cheer up!" and I gave her a hit

I said, "You can't have me, I'm too young for you bitch!"

She said, "No you're not!" then she starts cryin

I says I'm 19, she says, "Stop lyin!"

I says, "I am, go ask my mother

And with your wrinkled pussy, I can't be your lover"

Yeah, uh, tick-tock ya don't stop

And to the, uh, tick-tock n'ya don't quit

Yeah, n'ya tick-tock ya don't stop

And to the, uh, tick-tock n'ya don't quit

Biatch!
