The Showstopper
(专辑: Hot Cool & Vicious - 1986)
Once again my friends and countrymen Lend us your ears and eyes The
Showstopper is stupid fresh When will you be satisfied? Yo, bust it Sandy D
Yo, what's up? Have you ever been to jams when people just stand They pay to come in, and they don't even dance? [?] They're so uncool They think they're cute Am I
lying? No, it's the
truth Right now I'm gonna show you how it's supposed to be 'Cause we, the
Salt 'n' Pepa MCs Will chance the
circumstance rocks your pants My fans, this is called the
jam (Please, please, please don't stop) Sandy...What?...Sandy...What? Sandy, we'll be breaking hearts, ya know That's true, it's all about money though But Douglas and Richard won't like it (So?) Come on then, let's stop the
show Yo, this beat is stupid fresh Huh, yeah, you know it, cold dissed Doug Fresh Top choice, of course, the
rest is soft Set it off, do it, set it off, do it, set it off, do it, set it off, do it (Please, please, please don't stop) Listen now, I
ain't down to rap (Are you serious?) Just like a
heart attack (Come on now, Cher!) I
don't want to (Get on now, Cher!) Do I
have to? (Yeah!) Well I
really don't have too much to say Yo then, here's my story anyway It's just a
little something too hot to be missed, girl I
was going downtown (was she?) serious, y'all Took the
train home from work Pissed off because of a
stain on my shirt The
train made a
stop (Where?) Two hundred and five And a
little soft guy walked inside He wore plastic Bally's and a
booty Gucci suit Cracked a
little smile and showed a
fake gold tooth Was he cute? Negative, he was a
dupe Instead of Polo he wore Brute (La-di-da-di) What? (La-di-da-di) Uh-huh, word to mother The
boy was rude, I
didn't approve He tried to make a
move I
said, "Stop it, dude!" I
started to cuss and began to swear He said, "Listen girl, I
like the
way you comb your hair And I
like the
stylish clothes you wear Is there something that I
can do To show how much I
really care? Like when I'm all alone with you My heart just skips a
beat or two And you put that fire inside of me That shows it's more than just a
dream And I
like it, and I
like it" I
said, "Please, don't get excited!" Don't you know I'm too young for you, mister? Sally from the
Valley, she's my sister And that lady you dissed, that was my mother You hurt two of my family, you won't get another He tried to deny it, said it was a
lie He wanted to explain, explain to me why I
said, "Don't bother, there's really no need Sally died when she hit the
concrete" He said, "Come on, you're putting me on" As I
got up to walk he sang this song: "Oh, baby please don't go What must I
do to show The
way I
feel for you, girl Is going to be real? But in reality, I
know we'll never be 'Cause you're still walking away from me" A
diss, a
diss
