You know the four one one hon, we're _jammin_
So, clear the road, here comes mr. got-it-goin-on

A backed up town to give a shout to susannah

2.360 Degrees(What Goes Around)

'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'

Here comes the puba and you know i won't fake it
Usually bust records on gettin butt naked
Made for the benzi, drive a nigga skins he
Pump the tape, grab your dick, get with the puba frenzy
C'mon honey sing, don't you, try to eject
_slow down_'s what you say, once my joint gets erect
Some try to copy but they just can't sketch it
Some try to follow but they just can't catch it
With the boom boom tap, yeah alla dat
Huh, i'm livin fat, me fall off, there'll be none of that
See who's the one to flip it? quick to tell a nigga to zip it
Stud drink the 40 cause we ain't got time to sip it
Grand puba got body
Kick some of them, some of those, and some yardies
As dope as they come, suckers sing or hum
Don't try to step to this, you know your shit is slum
First batter up well here's the pitch - it's a curve
Second batter up because the first got served
The one who arouse, as i browse for a blouse
Kick styles by the piles, as i leave a trail for miles
Skins when i please, hit from here to tel aviv
I'm gettin g's, no more time for the line of free cheese
Here's the four one one hon, the one who gets the job done
I know you know the flavor of the puba

'what goes around comes back around again..'

'what goes around comes back around again..'
this
'what goes around comes back around again..'
down
'what goes around comes back around again..'
check check!

O-kay o-kay o-kay, what more could i say?
Alamo get the boom and.. parlay parlay
I'm far from the average, civilize the savage
When i'm low on protein i'm with the bean soup and cabbage
Skins on the diet, kick the flavor, cause a riot
Do a show and get the dough and then i'm off to the hyatt
So tie me on the spliff, ain't no ands or if
And if you really wanna riff you just might end up playin stiff
Girbauds hangin baggy, hilfiger on the top
Knapsack on the back, that's just my flavor hobbes
As my man gives a zigga zigga, watchin three grow bigga bigga
To pos k, that's my nigga
Here goes the wreck, whaddayou expect?
If you wanna see some wreck, send cash, not a check
Grand puba, more than a public figure
Quick to kick the bone up the butt of a golddigger
Now tic-tac-toe means i hit three in a row
If i do a show then you better have my dough
Low, low, well how low can you go?
Call on grand puba if you really need a pro
Cause my shit's more rugged than g.i. joe
Don't front honey, act like you know
Now big up to my brooklyn mob (brooklyn! brooklyn!)
Big up to my uptown mob (uptown! uptown!)
Now brothers wanna diss me cause it's my turn to burn
My best advice for the brothers is to sit back and learn
I don't diss nobody to be somebody
I just like to kick the flavor to make the people party
See all i'm sayin, is respect due
Those who tried to follow, sorry i left you
Grand puba, stud doogie and alamo
So if you ever want the flavor you know where to go
Now how we go..

Yeah, ha ha ha!
The reel to reel, yeah yeah yeah, this is how we move it

You know it's flavor, three shots lick the glock off
Buck buck buck, you know how it go
Grand puba, stud doogie, and alamo
So what's the 411?
Loungin black
Hilfiger knapsack with a 40 in the back
So hon shake the goodies don't front on the puddy
With the rubber and the hoodie i peck the hole like woody
Show no shame, with everything to gain
Honies always singin, how can i ease the pain?
When they think i'm comin back but that's game
This is the real, how i wheel and deal
First round draft pick like big shaquille o'neal
Shit's so dope that i might catch a steal
Stud doogie, alamo, spin the wheel

Well that's how we move it
This is how we move it
That's how we move it
This is how we move it
Aiyyo doogie how we move it

I'm with this rich girl named dawn, hit the skins on the lawn
Ron stud had her sister in the crib playin twister
They lived in poughkeepsie, moms was a gypsy
Pops was in the crib but he was upstairs tipsy
Know i got soul, baby jump upon a pole
Janet jackson took a ride, she's no longer _in control_
The bedroom worked, not a bone jerker
Good like black and decker knockin skins from here to mecca
Like one two three, or a-b-c
Or do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
Honey called me brilly, i told her she was silly
Cut my ex-girl off cause she worked my last frilly
The new skin shower, micraphone goer
Girls follow me like animals did noah
From tracy, to pattie, linda down to tina
Everytime i see some skins then pop goes the weener
Puba, the devil roaster, i keep a tool in my holster
Mess with me and i'll be on a wanted poster

Cause that's how we move it
This is how we move it
Well that's how we move it
This is how we move it
That's how we move it
This is how we move it
You know the deal huh, spin the wheel

Yeah, check it
It's time to switch it up so i'll breeze back to the rest
Put on some polo gear and a baggy pair of guess
Put on my baseball cap, refill my knapsack
This ain't poltergeist, but i'm back!
You know the m.o. on doogie alamo
Cuts so sharp make like shaft and get an afro
Better yet you can take it down low
Al's my man but that perm gotta go gotta go
So all you copycat rhymers swine'n'dinin on the riblets
Get downtown, see my mic on exhibit
No need to worry, cause i'll be there in a hurry
Yo hon i'll smack it out like darryl strawberry
Keep your head spinnin, cause i only heard of winnin
Played the game before so i can go the extra inning
Grand puba, stud doogie, alamo here to prove it
This is how we move it

Cause that's how we move it
This is how we move it
That's how we move it
This is how we move it
That's how we move it baby

Puba knows, how to flow
Better get your medication cause it spreads on the quickness
Aiyyo, some try to flow
Those who know the time, huh, already knew it
I drink a snapple and i wet my adam's apple
And head straight for the center, the dope style inventor
Quick to make a buck, cause it's not beginner's luck
Type of shit that hits, when you pump it in your truck
Not ashford and simpson, ike and tina turner
Sonny or cher, it's somethin dope on your ear
So whether monday
This is the type of shit to make the pockets fatter
It's simply splendid, the way that we bend it
But it's time for me to jet, so i'ma let mary end it

5.Big Kids Don't Play

Wa-da-da-dah-dang!
Check it the big kids don't play
Nope, we don't play the big kids don't play
Toys ain't us the big kids don't play
Huh, we don't play the big kids don't play
Check it yo

Here goes the flow, from your favorite dynamo
Grand puba, dougie mo', to show that we can flow slow
Some of them seem to think, that they're-biggidu-bobbebly-swing
Come on in, try again, cause here's the next one my friend
We know what our people want, it's the real dope shit
Twenty-four hours a day, the big kids don't play
So you can relax, all your problems and you come you come you
come
Grand puba's the one to get the job done
Well then you knock knock knock upon my door door door
If you really wanna see, god bo-dy
Grand puba is comin to slam it and you can believe it's no
trouble to me
Cause i wreck shop, on the non-stop, grab the big props
Then i change it up a bit to flip it on some next shit
That's how it goes when you got the puba flows
I guess i'm a natural, yeah

How the chorus go? the big kids don't play
Here we go the big kids don't play
Nanana-nah-nah the big kids don't play
Huh, we don't play the big kids don't play
Parlayparlayparlay the big kids don't play
Check the resume

Knock it off, because you know who's the boss
When it comes to this type of shit, you know what time is it
So, flow with the motion with the brother smooth as lotion
I'm not boastin here it is because i have the magic potion
Grand puba the mad rhymin ravin god child
With more rhymes than tokens in the turnstyle
Check it, here goes a noise for the ghetto girls and boys
I do it strictly for my people so come get your jolly joys
Not the type to get some loot, then flip and be conservative
I stay true, god body, word is bond, with no preservative
So cancel all the nonsense that you heard, thus far
You wanted the best at your request so here we are!
So call me the grand man, i laid off the sandman cause i like
Workin nights, i hit some joints and then i get into flights
Then push uptown to shabazz, get a fish sandwich with bean soup
Half and half, sign a few, autographs, jet back
Downtown, catch up with my staff
Now if you think that you can follow this flow
Please don't make me laugh

You know why? the big kids don't play
Nope we don't play the big kids don't play
Ha-hahah-ha-hah the big kids don't play
Yeahyeah,a-da-day! the big kids don't play
How we go yo the big kids don't play
The big kids don't play
The big kids don't play
The big kids don't play

The big kids don't play (repeats at intervals for the rest of
the song)


6.Honey Don't Front

Yeah (5x)
Aiyyo check it
This is how we swing this
Big kid flavor
So come on honey, don't front

C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Honey honey don't front
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Ha hah, you know what time is it
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
C'mon honey don't front
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Check it

No one's home, i'll be there in a sec
And all i keep thinkin is wreck wreck wreck
Ding-dong goes the doorbell as i'm straight for the nightie
She said, 'hold on a sec,' to make sure her crib was tidy
I steps in, with the puba grin
And i say, 'how ya been?' but all i'm thinkin is skins
I said, 'what's on the agenda for the night?'
She said hbo was boomin and foreman was about to fight
Cool, i'm down to see him drop a body
So i, dim the lights and it was me and this hottie
Round one, round two and then the fight was through
And i was thinkin all the things that i can do
I threw my arm upon her shoulder, this is what i told her
'baby grab ahold-a i'm as solid as a boulder'
She said, 'stop it!' she tried to change the topic
I said, 'c'mon honeydip because you know i wanna knock it'
Then she broke down in tears
And i've been waitin for weeks, but weeks feel like years
'puba, i thought you was a friend'
I said, 'what are you sayin hon, i gets no skin?'
I gave her some advice i put the shit on ice
And then i told her, yeah yeah

C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Ha hah, c'mon honey don't front
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
You know what time is it
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Knock it off, baby baby knock it off
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Huh

See hon was a good friend, i seen her more than just a bend
(what's a bend?) a bend is when you spread the skins
Why pretend? if honey bend, the god is in
She called me friend because she didn't want to see the jim
Now now-now now now just wait a sec
In cases like this, the puba usually gets wreck
But this night i settled for a little raincheck
Before i left i mmm-mmm'd all on her neck
I like to civilize em first before i run up in
Educate em then politely speak upon the skins
I'm the type of nigga to be careful of a digger
And i still can't figure how they try to play a nigga
So, c'mon honey cause i know you're not a stunt
But it ain't no need for you to front

C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Honey don't front
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Ha hah, you know what i want
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Yeah yeah yeah
C'mon honey, don't front
Honey don't front, c'mon honey don't front
Big kid flavor

Sha-ah, sha-uh, sha-ah
Sha-uh, sha-ah, sha-uh, sha-ah
Ha hah! this is how we gonna move it on yo

Give me a mic and i'll wreck shit
Cause it takes less than a sec for me to wet shit
But i just do my shows and catch the hoes and wear my 'bauds
And hang with those who i know are not down low foes
Oh my lord, climb aboard, here's the love train
Brother tried to hitch a free ride, back off shit stain
We got the lingo, hon stop look and giggle
Stud doogie drops a beat and then we watch the ass wiggle
Oh my good, this is how it should be done
So c'mon hon
I'm not luther vandross, babyface, or freddie jackson
That's ok, cause i still get a piece of the action
Don't worry honey, cause we got things covered
The best thing i left undiscovered
We can get this 40, step to the corner and get this blunt
It ain't no need to front

C'mon honey don't you don't don't don't don't
Yaknowhati'msayin? let's get it on
Ha hah, stud doogie doogie doogie

Ha hah, c'mon, c'mon
Time to shift


7.Lickshot

Alright y'all!
I want y'all to put your hands together
And to bring on a brother
That's bound to lay more dips in your hips
More gliiiiide in your stride
And if you don't dig what's next
You got the wrong damn address

He's coming, he's coming, he's coming (8x)

Bo! lickshot for the blood claat
Talkin that what-not, puba come and hit on the right spot
Rhyme teller for the ladies and the fellas
And i only kick the flavor for my fellow ghetto dwellers
No rock'n'roll, it's just soul
Ain't nuttin changed, i still like to hit the hole
With my pole, smoke a stog' and then i roll
And when my corn hurts i wear a dr. scholl
I make beats, then i hit sheets
Then i build with the gods to get the addicts off the nod
Grand puba, and i drop a album yearly
And i'm very nearly really come to droppin shit like daily
My knowledge is bond, so you brothers better move on
You brought your wack style, come play the horn
Grand puba maxwell, not on the hollywood tip
Here comes a brother more than _2 legit to quit_
I'm not sleazy but i like it nice and easy
Ain't nuttin changed, i still wear my hair peasy
I like to dig it, that's how we done done dug it
I tend to work for all the ones who like to wig it

*samples cut and scratched by alamo, including
'i got a story i want to tell you', 'i like to tell it like it
is'*

'second time around'

Check, i get boom service just like room service
And when i jump upon a stage i'm not a bit nervous
I kick the reel to rell, i never been to jail
Oops maybe one time but i had a good time
I keep my pants saggin, i'm never lolligaggin
Niggaz try to copy this they on the bandwagon
I shake my thing i do i pull a hamstring and then i call a old
fling
Gotta spike her and tell her _do the right thing_
Ron studda do the rap, alamo'll do the overdub
'fore we hit these 40's g, we gotta get some grub
Grand puba *inhales* let me take a breather
Get you hot like a fever, you'll be slammin even
So don't bother, it's the new godfather
Tell your godson that grand puba is the one

'way back in, history, the prodigal son
Was a, wealthy man' (2x)

Sing it baby, ha ha ha, bust it
No more skid row, can't get a show
Time to kick a new flow, and make the dough y'know?
I'm a pisces i like to drink iced teas
I'm a reese's with all the pieces
Or the alomnd with the joy, ten years from a boy
When i work out puba go see roy's
Next to thirty-three, where stud lives
You won't catch the puba doin nothin negative
Now honey don't like me cause i won't dance like hammer
Honey ask hammer, can he speak puba's grammar?
I can shake a leg if i want to, but i don't want to
Cause that's what my dancers do
Now i give the next man his props
But when it comes to micraphones, c'mon, give me mine hobbes
I won't diss the next brother to be great that's not my trade
But every brother, ain't a brother, word to the mother
Or praises to the father, you wanna try to see this
Don't even bother!
Grand puba, for those who came late
You try to step to this, then i'll end up-state
Word is bond, let's move on and on and on
Here we go, here we go, here we go, here we go!
Big up to my now rule brothers
All the cool ones, not the fool ones
And we gon' move it like this for the year ninety-two
Big up to my man, positive k
Big up to my cousin jeff
And allatha and allathat
This is how we gon' move this yo, word is bond
S.d., in the house
Definitely pumpin the shit like this
And this is how we gon' do it yo
Knowledge knowledge
Uhh


8.Ya Know How It Goes

Yo doogie let's hit this off yo
Aiyyo check this
Aiyyo rob sutton hit the button!
Hah! yeah
You know time is it (3x)
Check it check it check it out yo

Check
I beg your pardon who's the one with the roughness?
Super extra toughness, grand pu-ba-la!
See i'm the chosen, i keep the snakes frozen
Check out how i blows in, girl it feels good when it goes in
Here's the situation, supreme motivation
Helps me get the loot, and then i knock the boots
I jump high like jordan, flash like gordon
'bos, girbauds and shorts is probably what i'm sportin
Fuck what you heard, this is what you need to hear
It's the same as last year, so _step to the rear_
Cause when i was a shorty couldn't wait to drink my first 40
Find an ex-shorty in the hallway and get naughty
Jump on the elevator, hit the lights out
My moms was a yardie so my pops kept a stout
Ooh a young boy tipsy, that's without a doubt
It wasn't hard to tell what the puba was about
Love the ladies lovely used to do it on my knees
Certain honey got a problem go see puba he can ease ya
Here i am, and here i stand
Honey all that good shit tell me, who's the man?
From, here to bangkok, i sign my john hancock
On the contract, it's like 1-2-3 contact
Kick shit on the really cause i do it on the daily
Straight to the hole like my man malik seally
I hit stunts, on occasion smoke blunts
My moms don't like me cause i wear gold fronts
If honey wants to flam it's no thing to me at all
Alamo and stud doogie, it's time to have a ball
I'm a go-getter, and i'm out to go-get
If you're makin movies, cancel that shit
You're still makin movies? man, get your corder-cam
Oops, cam-corder, but shit you know the order
Couldn't get no skins, until you got a benz
Didn't have no friends til you started makin ends
I see it daily, weekly monthly yearly
Think you got it goin on? really
I never sold gems to the bums in the slums
Only robbed devils, made a few number runs
Brothers round my way they like to blabber at the gums
Just jealous cause i got it by the tons
Twenty fifty hundred, is how i count my bills
Then i take it slow because it runs into the mills
Brothers try to step to this but all they catch is chills
No frills, puba pays the bills
Ron studda spin the wheel back like his name was pat sajak
On wheel of fortune.. that's how we keep it scorchin
Alamo hey, sadat x hey, baby pop hey, now let me keep it rollin
This is just the way i move to keep my pockets swollen
Lights cameras action here comes mr. satisfaction
I be maxin and relaxin til it's time to jump in the action
Now for grown i speak with a tone which i choose to call my own
Ghetto prone i guard the zone like the kid from _home alone_
Type of style that flows for days it's like it pays to save
amaze
Now i be careful on the lays because the aids are nowadayses
Grand puba, s.o.s., stud doogie, alamo
You know how the shit go!
So big jeff hey, b.r. hey, tislam hey, ja-el hey
Stud doogie hey, alamo hey, and uptown hey, brooklyn hey
And here we go here we go make the dough yo
Here we go here we go make the dough yo
Now check it y'all i'd like to say peace
To all the gods and the earths and the people of the universe
Wanna let you know the black man come first
So don't act up cause you might leave in a hearse
Yo check this yo
I wanna give a big up to all my now rule people
You know the flavor, projects m.o.
Lincoln ave. m.o., youknowhati'msayin?
City park in the dark m.o., youknowhati'msayin?
Big up big up to all my people

Don't worry hon, my pops showed me where it tingle
It's time to catch on, to this grand puba lingo
No fuss, don't worry, toys ain't us

Dope shit we got it so it's time to get retarded
So play like handiman and lah guu guu got it!
No fakes see we got it what it takes
We stay far away from snakes, sippin on the chitlin shakes
You know the deal, on how we really feel

Well it's the reel to reel (it's the reel) stud doogie
Aiyyo it's the reel to reel (it's the reel) alamo

Niggaz try to copy but man your shit has had it

Take the a-train to the show so you can cancel the limo
Stud doogie, alamo is on the top top (top top)
And if ain't a zigga zigga then it ain't hip-hop (hip-hop)
I like when girls shake they booty to the rhymes that i send em
Some look good, so pardon if i bend em
Used to live in the rule, smoke a mic like kools
Niggaz that i used to swing with is smokin wools
Damn they won't drop it, i strive to make them stop it

10.Soul Controller

Yeah, uhh
I'd like to say peace to all the gods and earths
And people of the universe (peace allah)
Just wanna let you know the black man's first
(original man)
We gonna drop a little somethin like this knahmsayin
On how we feel on the real, check it yo, uh-huh

Who tells you when to work? (the devil)
Who tells you when you get a day off? (the devil)
Well who gives you your pay? (the damn devil)
And who takes it away? (the devil)
You mean to tell me that we're still not a slave
In the land of free and the home of the brave? (mmmm)
Knowledge cipher, divided by power equals wisdom
But you know we have to start with knowledge first
Divine evil's what dispearse in a hearse
Situation that we in, some people sayin that we're cursed
The lack of the knowledge of ourselves makes it worse
Science that we drop, make the average head burst
So do the knowledge on the very next verse
I heard a brother say, 'i wash the clothes, i cook your food
I pay your rent,' now is that how the story went?
Emphatically no, singer singin that weak wisdom knowledge
Shit haji god is here to cancel it

So just ring the alarm, another devil's dying, boooohhh
Just ring the alarm, an uncle tom is tryin, boooohhh

I didn't come to conceal it, i come to reveal it
The true and living god with the son of man (son of man)
And if you ever need assistance just take my hand
Black man be prepared cause here comes the klan
Now my great great grand, was hung on a tree
By the colored man -- you probably know him as a white man
I seen a oprah winfrey show, she said that was in the past
Now it's time to teach the people, why our people's not
Treated equal, here's the next sequel (speak on it god)
Askin taller than the tallest wall, you ever saw
Sincere gave the god a call, we boost it from the mall
Long as it's a devil i'ma take it
If a devil catch me right, i leave him buttnaked (yessir yessir)
Word is bond, test the god, i don't fake it

Yeah yeah, uhh
Now here it go (here we come)
The soul controller (soul controller)
The soul controller (soul controller)
The soul controller, yeah

Now wake up, wake up, cause you went back to sleep
Grab ahold of your mental cause this next verse is deep
Now check out the thing and what they did to rodney king
That goes to show ya, who controls ya
The devil man when brothers went lootin in cali
They used the corder-cam, the same as the police man
But i bet my last bottom dollar g
The brothers that they picked up won't go free
See i'm a, disbeliever when it comes to jungle fever
Aiyyo god you trust the devil? (now cipher) me neither
Now brothers say, 'why you diss the church like ock?'
Cause if church was good for us, it wouldn't be on every block
Of our neighborhood, just like a liquor store, it just ain't
No good -- they represent the ten percent
Now momma lova has no loot, but she'll spend her last dime
To make sure her child has an easter suit
What is this with christmas, i just can't see
Spendin your money, givin the credit
To a fat man comin down your chimney (c'mon)
I just can't see it, it's like tv tellin lies to your vision
Haji god is here to make the incision
The soul controller, uhh

Yeah the soul controller, word is bond, the soul controller
The soul controller
Check it
As we come with the twelve jewels we know and understand
The knowledge wisdom understanding
It's freedom justice equality
Food clothing shelter
And love peace and happiness
So as we say a-b-c


11.Proper Education

Here comes the proper education
* grand puba skats in the background *
Rudebwoy!
Fiyah! here comes the rudebwoy, ah ahh!

Proper education, education
Proper education
Proper education, education
Proper education

Now let me tell you folks just exactly what i mean
The way they try to lower, the black man's self esteem
Put us in their schools and i call em mental graves
When they teach us bout ourselves, all we learn that we were
slaves
Then they say jesus was white, understand
That means that mystery god in the sky's a white man
These two things alone make us start to feel inferior
Then we grow up thinkin they are superior
Why does the black licorice taste the worst?
Why does the black jellybean taste the worst?
Why do the bad guys always wear black?
Why is bad luck when you see a black cat?
Cause they're workin subconciously, subconciously
Workin subconciously
Workin subconciously, subconciously
Workin subconciously
This is why we must teach our strong black nation
Proper education, education
Proper education
Proper education
Proper education
Proper education

Yes lord! easy now star! come again!

Now they gave restitution to the japanese
You see they gave restitution to the jews
Now over 400 years of slavery rape and murder
But i guess there's no restitution for the coons
They wanna use us a tool, and also as a slave
In the land of the free and the home of the brave
Musa came to the cave and taught them ock
The tricknowledge that the devil once forgot
Now the ten percent rules over the eighty-five
You see we have to do more than just keep hope alive
I don't hope and i don't do dope
But i still feel the pain from my ancestors swingin on a rope
Now pardon me as i distill on a devil's grill
Now me trust a devil, huh, i never will
I just catch my ?, grab my button, put it on my lapel
Grab my people and get out of hell
See this is why we must teach our young black nation
Proper education, education

Yes

Yes, we would like to say peace to all the gods and the earths
People of the universe
The original man
I would like to say peace to my brother tony x
Yes

Wanna say
To my physicals, free the land

A-b-c

This ain't my man heav's joint, so shit, here's a curse
For those who got stuck, well kcuf means fuck!
That's what i like to do after the puba makes a buck
For those who say i suck well then step up and push your luck
You're aced out, now your assed-out, i still hit joints
Til they pass out, at three o'clock i let my mc class out (uh!)
So keep a clear focus, cause i say hocus pocus
That's all i have to say to make the mob swarm like locusts
(yeah!)
Then i climb the bridge, push uptown to the ?
To the harlem river drive to pick up ali at the rutgers
Then we chatta-nagga-noogi, to go pick up stud doogie.. 'easy

Ha hah, so all you grand puba wannabees
You better pack it up 'easy back it up'

'back it up, huh, easy back it up'
'huh, easy back it up'
Back it up!
'back it up, huh, easy back it up'
'huh, easy back it up'

Now dig it
Here's the kid, never did a bid
Never hit skid, check out the shit i did
Live in the bronx, born in brooklyn
Chilled in manhattan never got my shit tooken
I'm easy on the flex, you know my shit is right
We're goin on a flight, so hold on tight
Kid capri is on point with my man grand puba
If suckers try to flex they'll get twisted like a tuba
Never cause trouble, that's not my style
Always on the move, stack papes by the pile
I'm crazy on the low, but i go places though
I always do a show so you know i got dough
Girls try to sweet talk, but bullshit walk
For those who try to hawk i stab clit like a fork
I'm very intelligent, so don't try to play me
Try to press the issue and i'll bust that ass baby
I'm thick like a shake, very high yella
Describe kid capri, uptown's big fella
So now you know the flavor, and please do me a favor
Stay your ass out my path, cause i snap you like a gator, later

'easy back it up'
Back it up!
Back it up!
Back it up!

Grand puba (who?) grand puba (who?) grand puba, bust it (who?)
I touch you and, i can't let go
I can't go a day without grand puba (who?)
Grand puba (who?) grand motherfuckin puba.. *laughing*
Let's get out of here
That's how that story goes


14.360 Degrees(What Goes Around)

'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'there's just one thing i wanna say..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'
'what goes around comes back around again..'

Here comes the puba and you know i won't fake it
Usually bust records on gettin butt naked
Made for the benzi, drive a nigga skins he
Pump the tape, grab your dick, get with the puba frenzy
C'mon honey sing, don't you, try to eject
_slow down_'s what you say, once my joint gets erect
Some try to copy but they just can't sketch it
Some try to follow but they just can't catch it
With the boom boom tap, yeah alla dat
Huh, i'm livin fat, me fall off, there'll be none of that
See who's the one to flip it? quick to tell a nigga to zip it
Stud drink the 40 cause we ain't got time to sip it
Grand puba got body
Kick some of them, some of those, and some yardies
As dope as they come, suckers sing or hum
Don't try to step to this, you know your shit is slum
First batter up well here's the pitch - it's a curve
Second batter up because the first got served
The one who arouse, as i browse for a blouse
Kick styles by the piles, as i leave a trail for miles
Skins when i please, hit from here to tel aviv
I'm gettin g's, no more time for the line of free cheese
Here's the four one one hon, the one who gets the job done
I know you know the flavor of the puba

'what goes around comes back around again..'
it yo!
'what goes around comes back around again..'
this
'what goes around comes back around again..'
down
'what goes around comes back around again..'
check check!

O-kay o-kay o-kay, what more could i say?
Alamo get the boom and.. parlay parlay
I'm far from the average, civilize the savage
When i'm low on protein i'm with the bean soup and cabbage
Skins on the diet, kick the flavor, cause a riot
Do a show and get the dough and then i'm off to the hyatt
So tie me on the spliff, ain't no ands or if
And if you really wanna riff you just might end up playin stiff
Girbauds hangin baggy, hilfiger on the top
Knapsack on the back, that's just my flavor hobbes
As my man gives a zigga zigga, watchin three grow bigga bigga
To pos k, that's my nigga
Here goes the wreck, whaddayou expect?
If you wanna see some wreck, send cash, not a check
Grand puba, more than a public figure
Quick to kick the bone up the butt of a golddigger
Now tic-tac-toe means i hit three in a row
If i do a show then you better have my dough
Low, low, well how low can you go?
Call on grand puba if you really need a pro
Cause my shit's more rugged than g.i. joe
Don't front honey, act like you know
Now big up to my brooklyn mob (brooklyn! brooklyn!)
Big up to my uptown mob (uptown! uptown!)
Now brothers wanna diss me cause it's my turn to burn
My best advice for the brothers is to sit back and learn
I don't diss nobody to be somebody
I just like to kick the flavor to make the people party
See all i'm sayin, is respect due
Those who tried to follow, sorry i left you
Grand puba, stud doogie and alamo
So if you ever want the flavor you know where to go
Now how we go..

Yeah, ha ha ha!
The reel to reel, yeah yeah yeah, this is how we move it
You know the flavor, y'all know the flavor, you know the flavor
Here we go yo, and you don't stop (big up to all the people)
Big up! big up!
Big jeff hold tight! ha hah, ha hah!
On and on y'all
Time to get gone
Word is bond

Never date a girl if the girl got a kid
Nah, poppa's got a brand new bag
And i never hit skins once they sag
Guy says groovy, you like to see a movie?
Stick it in easy, it comes back greasy
First to tell you _slow down_
But be the second to take you uptown
I won't fall or fumble, trip stagger or stumble
Not a soft sucker but i still come humble
The next candidate, who holds all the weight
It ain't him or him, you better get the story straight
Ron stud is my dj makes the girl feel like it's foreplay
Comin like a bull, so you better yell ole
