The Show (Go-Go Version)

(альбом: This One's For Chuck Brown: Doug E. Fresh Salutes The Godfather Of Go-Go - 2021)

Somebody just told me we gotta be off in 8 minutes
But I think they meant to say 6 minutes
Gimme the horns man, let's do it one time
This is it
Make some noise for my brother, that's my man
The one and only Biz Markie

Yo
Have you ever seen a show with fellas on the mic
With one-minute rhymes that don't come out right
They bite, they never write, that's not polite
Baby, am I lying?
No, you're quite right
Well tonight on this very mic you're about to hear we swear
The best darn rappers of the year
So, cheerio, yell, scream bravo
Also, if you didn't know this is called the show

I don't know if y'all was ready for me
I don't know if y'all was ready

Yo (What?) put your Bally's on
I was about to but I need a shoe horn
You know why?
Because these shoes always hurt my corns
I got 6 minutes, 6 minutes
Say what
6 minutes
Doug E. Fresh you're on

We're uh-uh-on
Uh-uh-on
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-on

Here we go
Here we go
C'mon
C'mon
Here we go
Here we go
C'mon
C'mon

Yo where's Will and Barry?
I don't know they're late
Told them the time
Yo I forgot the date
Man, you did it again
Oh no
Yo
Here we go
C'mon
Here we go
C'mon
Here we go you'd think we'd miss the show
No no no no no no we didn't
No no no no no no we didn't
Don't get us wrong
'Scuse me Doug E.
'Scuse me Doug E.
What?
'Scuse me Doug E. Fresh you're on

Well, it started off on 8th Avenue
When I made up the name of the Get Fresh Crew
It was me, my two DJs Chill Will and Barry Bee
Right hand man Ricky D
Rap and sing
Make sounds and things
For example, even telephone ring

Do we got any beautiful people in the house tonight?
Well, you know what?
Uh
But anyway, no more delay
Check out the new style I display
Now you gotta be fresh to rock with Fresh
And I'm D-O-U-G-I-E Fresh
And I'm known for the
Not for the
The human beatbox or the entertainer
No other title can fit me plainer
Passing generation I am a remainer
Also known as the beat box trainer
Cashing checks, sound effects
I'm finished rocking
Slick Rick is on next

All y'all know this song
We gonna do it like this now

Now here's a little something that needs to be heard
Doug, I was going downtown (Word, Rick?) Word!
Chilling all alone, no one to be with
Stepped on the D-train at 205th
I saw a pretty girl so I sat beside her
Then she went roar like she was Tony the Tiger
I said hold on, there's been a mistake
My name is Slick Rick not Frosted Flakes
Oh golly wolly, she was raising hell
She said my name is Maggie but call me Michelle
Michelle, my belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
Doug Fresh
I'm on the microphone know what I'm saying
And when I'm on the mic there won't be no delaying
Bust a move, we show and prove
Hey, yo, let me show ya a whole new groove

Ok
As you can see
Most definitely
We are
Chill Will
Barry Bee
Ricky D
And I am the original human beatbox
The greatest entertainer
Doug E.
With Team Familiar
I love you
I love you
Enjoy my man Biz Markie
Give it up for Team Familiar
And if you happy to be alive, make some noise, y'all
If you're happy to be alive, make some noise
